Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of power supply, and in particular relates to a bridgeless PFC device and a switching power supply. Background Art

[0002] In order to solve the problems of harmonic pollution and energy waste in the power grid, power factor correction (PFC) circuits are becoming more and more widely used. Bridgeless PFC circuits are receiving more and more attention due to their high efficiency.

[0003] When the PFC circuit starts, the input voltage value is uncertain and the initial voltage on the output filter capacitor is zero, which may cause the output filter capacitor to generate a large input surge current at the moment of charging. The surge current will cause the performance of the power semiconductor device to decay or even damage, reduce the reliability of the converter, and at the same time, cause a great impact on the power supply system.

[0004] The existing solution is usually to insert a thermistor in series in the loop and use a relay to bypass the thermistor after the startup is completed. However, this will increase the size of the power supply equipment and is not conducive to the development of the power supply equipment towards miniaturization and high power density.

[0005] China, with publication number CN111342436B, proposed to suppress surge current by controlling the turn-on time of the thyristor. However, if the input voltage is a DC voltage, the thyristor cannot be naturally turned off when the current passes through zero, so the surge current cannot be suppressed by controlling the turn-on time of the thyristor starting phase.

[0006] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a bridgeless PFC device that can satisfy both AC input surge current suppression and DC input surge current suppression. Summary of the invention

[0007] In view of this, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome at least one defect of the above-mentioned prior art, and provide a bridgeless PFC device and a switching power supply, which can achieve AC and DC input surge current suppression without adding thermistors and relays, and can reduce the size of the power supply equipment.

[0011] Furthermore, when an AC signal is input to the first input port and the second input port of the bridgeless PFC circuit, a driving pulse is sent to the corresponding thyristor only when the absolute value of the AC signal is in a falling region in each control cycle, thereby ensuring that the corresponding thyristor is turned off at the zero-crossing moment.

[0024] There are two thyristors in the industrial frequency bridge arm of the bridgeless PFC circuit of the present invention. When the bridgeless PFC device is working, after the auxiliary power supply is started, the bridgeless PFC device is first controlled not to work, and a corresponding control strategy is selected according to the current working conditions to suppress the surge current, thereby effectively suppressing both the AC input surge current and the DC input surge current.

[0027] Among them: there are two thyristors in the power frequency bridge arm of the bridgeless PFC circuit. When the bridgeless PFC device is working, after the auxiliary power supply is started, the bridgeless PFC device is first controlled not to work, and the corresponding control strategy is selected according to the current working conditions to suppress the surge current: When a positive half-cycle AC signal is input to the first input port and the second input port of the bridgeless PFC circuit, the first control strategy is selected to form a charging circuit by pulse controlling the thyristor in the power frequency bridge arm, so as to slowly charge the voltage of the bus capacitor C2 to be equal to the peak value of the input voltage; When a DC signal is input to the first input port and the second input port of the bridgeless PFC circuit, the second control strategy is selected to control the buck module so as to slowly charge the voltage of the bus capacitor C2 to be equal to the input voltage; When a negative half-cycle AC signal is input to the first input port and the second input port of the bridgeless PFC circuit, any one of the first control strategy or the second control strategy is selected to slowly charge the voltage of the bus capacitor C2 to be equal to the peak value of the input voltage.

[0028] Figure 3 Based on Figure 2 A specific circuit diagram of the principle block diagram, the bridgeless PFC circuit includes a PFC inductor L1, a switch tube Q1, a switch tube Q2, a thyristor X1, and a thyristor X2; the step-down module is a Buck circuit, including a switch tube Q3, a freewheeling diode D8 and a Buck inductor L2.

[0029] The terminal L (DC-) is electrically connected to the anode of the diode D1, the cathode of the diode D2, and one end of the PFC inductor L1. The other end of the PFC inductor L1 is electrically connected to the source of the switch tube Q1 and the drain of the switch tube Q2. The terminal N (DC+) is electrically connected to the anode of the thyristor X1, the cathode of the thyristor X2, and the anode of the diode D5.

[0030] Figure 3 The working process of the bridgeless PFC device when applied to the switching power supply is divided into four stages, as follows: The first stage is the auxiliary power startup stage. During this stage, the digital control circuit ( Figure 3 This circuit is omitted in the circuit), the bridgeless PFC circuit and the Buck circuit do not work. When the input voltage reaches a certain threshold, the auxiliary voltage works normally; The second stage is the surge current suppression area. In this stage, the bridgeless PFC circuit does not work. At this time, the digital control circuit controls the driving signal of the thyristor or Buck circuit to buffer the voltage of the output capacitor C2 to be equal to the input voltage, thereby achieving the surge current suppression effect. The third stage is the bridgeless PFC circuit startup zone, during which the bridgeless PFC circuit begins soft start; The fourth stage is the working area of ​​the bridgeless PFC circuit, during which the bridgeless PFC circuit works normally.

[0031] When an AC signal is input in the above-mentioned second stage, the pulse control of the thyristor can be realized through the digital control circuit, and the voltage of the output capacitor C2 can be slowly charged to be equal to the peak value of the input voltage, thereby realizing the effect of the AC surge suppression circuit; when a DC signal is input, the switch tube Q3 of the Bcuk circuit can be controlled by the digital control circuit, and the voltage of the output capacitor C2 can be slowly charged to be equal to the input voltage, thereby realizing the effect of the DC surge suppression circuit.

[0032] Figure 4 for Figure 3 The circuit works when the positive half-cycle voltage of AC is input. The first control strategy is used to suppress the surge current. The thyristor in the power frequency bridge arm is controlled. For details, please refer to Figure 4, where Vin represents the input voltage waveform, Vgs represents the pulse drive signal of the thyristor, Uo represents the voltage on the output capacitor C2, i rush It represents the input surge current. At the initial moment, the bridgeless PFC circuit and the Buck circuit do not work (the switch tubes Q1, Q2, and Q3 are turned off, and the thyristors X1 and X2 are cut off). In order to suppress the surge current, after the auxiliary power supply starts working, the input AC voltage and the output voltage are detected, and the voltage difference between the input voltage and the output voltage is calculated. The input AC voltage can be divided into an absolute value rising interval and an absolute value falling interval. Under the action of the digital control circuit, the thyristor X2 is pulsed on for a time period of T1 in the absolute value falling interval of the input AC voltage. At this time, the thyristor X2 is turned on, and the output capacitor C2 is charged. The charging current path is terminal L (DC-) → diode D1 → output capacitor C2 → thyristor X2 → terminal N (DC+). The voltage of the output capacitor C2 gradually increases, and at the same time, the input voltage gradually decreases. When the voltage of the output capacitor C2 is higher than the input voltage, that is, the cathode voltage of the thyristor X2 is greater than the anode voltage, the thyristor is cut off, and the charging circuit of the output capacitor C2 is disconnected and charged. The single charging is completed. At this time, the voltage of the output capacitor C2 is U1. Among them, the smaller the voltage difference between the input voltage and the output voltage, the smaller the conduction phase difference of the thyristor, the smaller the surge current, and the longer the time required for the output capacitor to be pre-charged to the same level as the input voltage peak, so that the startup time can be controlled to meet different application requirements.

[0033] When the input AC negative cycle is used, the first control strategy is also used to suppress the surge current. Since the AC input is symmetrical, the thyristor controlled at this time is X1. Specifically, the thyristor X1 is pulsed on for a duration of T2 in the absolute value drop interval of the input AC voltage. At this time, the thyristor X1 is turned on, and the output capacitor C2 is charged. The charging current path is terminal N (DC+) → thyristor X1 → output capacitor C2 → diode D2 → terminal L (DC-). The voltage of the output capacitor C2 gradually increases, and at the same time, the absolute value of the input voltage gradually decreases. When the cathode voltage of the thyristor X1 is greater than the anode voltage, the thyristor is turned off, and the charging circuit of the output capacitor C2 is disconnected and charged. The single charge is completed. At this time, the voltage of the output capacitor C2 is U2, and U2>U1. The absolute value of the input AC voltage corresponding to the thyristor turn-on moment increases successively with the order of the turn-on time points, so that the voltage of the output capacitor C2 can gradually increase to the maximum amplitude of the input AC voltage.

[0034] Figure 5 for Figure 3 The circuit is a schematic diagram of the current loop of the DC input. The second control strategy is used to suppress the surge current. The control is for the step-down module. For details, please refer to Figure 5, where L (DC-) is the negative input terminal of the DC, and L (DC+) is the positive input terminal of the DC. At the initial moment, the bridgeless PFC circuit and the Buck circuit do not work (switch tubes Q1, Q2, and Q3 are turned off, thyristors X1 and X2 are turned off, diode D5 is turned on, diode D6 is turned off, and diode D2 is turned on). To suppress the startup surge current, the current charges capacitor C1 through diodes D5 and D2. After the auxiliary power supply starts working, the digital control circuit controls the driving pulse width of the switch tube Q3. When the switch tube Q3 is turned on, the voltage on capacitor C1 excites the Buck inductor L2 and charges the output capacitor C2. When the switch tube Q3 is turned off, the freewheeling tube D8 is turned on, and the Buck inductor L2 charges the output capacitor C2. As the driving pulse width of the switch tube Q3 increases, the voltage of the output capacitor C2 gradually increases, and finally equals the input voltage, achieving the startup DC input surge suppression effect. The longer the driving pulse width of the switch tube Q3 gradually increases, the better the DC input surge suppression effect is.

[0035] It should be noted that Figure 3 The circuit can also be used in the negative half cycle of the input AC Figure 5 The current loop in the output capacitor C2 buffers the voltage to be equal to the input voltage, thereby achieving the inrush current suppression effect. At this time, the second control strategy is used to suppress the inrush current, and the step-down module is controlled.

[0036] The bridgeless PFC device of the present invention can effectively suppress AC and DC input surge currents, has a controllable startup time, and can meet different application requirements. It is more efficient than traditional solutions, has a wider and more stable temperature range, and is smaller in size than traditional solutions, making it easier to mount and integrate.

[0038] A switching power supply of this embodiment includes any one of the bridgeless PFC devices in the first embodiment, and can achieve AC and DC input surge current suppression without adding thermistors and relays, thereby reducing the size of the switching power supply equipment.

[0039] The description of the above embodiments is only used to help understand the inventive concept of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. For ordinary technicians in this technical field, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made without departing from the principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
