DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended only to explain the present invention and are not to be construed as limiting the present invention. On the contrary, the embodiments of the present invention include all variations, modifications, and equivalents that fall within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.

[0033] As the charging power of electronic devices increases, high voltage and high current become the development trend. As a result, the power supply voltage of the adapter gradually increases. Therefore, in order to charge electronic devices, a step-down circuit is needed to complete the voltage conversion.

[0034] For example, when the power supply voltage of the adapter is increased to 20V and the voltage supported by the electronic device is 5V, a 4x step-down circuit is needed to complete the voltage conversion, and then the 4:1 switched capacitor converter comes into being.

[0035] In related technologies, Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of a dual-phase Dickson structure 4:1 switched capacitor converter provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1As shown, it needs 16 power switches, the number of power switches is large, which leads to a complex driving control scheme; in addition, the working voltages of the internal capacitors are not the same, the working voltages of part of the capacitors are higher than the output voltage, which leads to the fact that the withstand voltage of the power switch corresponding to the part of the capacitors is high, and high-specification power switches and capacitors need to be selected, which leads to high cost and area of the charge pump circuit.

[0036] In the related art, Figure 2 The structure diagram of a 4:1 switched capacitor converter of S-P structure provided by the embodiment of the present application is shown. Although it only needs 10 power switches, the withstand voltages of the ten power switches are S1=3VOUT, S2=3VOUT, S3=2VOUT, S4=2VOUT, S5=VOUT, S6=VOUT, S7=4VOUT, S8=VOUT, S9=VOUT, and S10=VOUT, it needs one 4VOUT withstand voltage power switch, two 3VOUT withstand voltage power switches, two 2VOUT withstand voltage power switches, and five VOUT withstand voltage power switches, wherein the withstand voltages of the five power switches are high, high-specification power switches and capacitors need to be selected, which leads to high cost and area of the charge pump circuit.

[0037] The present application will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0038] Figure 3 The structure diagram of a charge pump circuit provided by the embodiment of the present application is shown.

[0039] As Figure 3 shown, the charge pump circuit comprises a first terminal, a second terminal, a first energy storage module C1, a second energy storage module C2, a third energy storage module C3, a first switch Q1, a second switch Q2, a third switch Q3, a fourth switch Q4, a fifth switch Q5, a sixth switch Q6, a seventh switch Q7, an eighth switch Q8, a ninth switch Q9, and a tenth switch Q10; wherein,

[0040] The first terminal is connected to the first end of the first switch Q1, the second end of the first switch Q1 is respectively connected to the first end of the first energy storage module C1 and the first end of the fifth switch Q5, the second end of the first energy storage module C1 is respectively connected to the second end of the second switch Q2 and the first end of the sixth switch Q6, the first end of the second switch Q2 is respectively connected to the first end of the second energy storage module C2 and the first end of the seventh switch Q7, the second end of the second energy storage module C2 is respectively connected to the second end of the third switch Q3 and the first end of the eighth switch Q8, the first end of the third switch Q3 is respectively connected to the first end of the third energy storage module C3, the second end of the fifth switch Q5, the second end of the seventh switch Q7, and the first end of the ninth switch Q9, the second end of the third energy storage module C3 is respectively connected to the second end of the fourth switch Q4, the second end of the sixth switch Q6, the second end of the eighth switch Q8, and the first end of the tenth switch Q10, and the connection point between the first end of the fourth switch Q4 and the second end of the ninth switch Q9 is connected to the second terminal.

[0041] A second terminal of the tenth switch Q10 is grounded.

[0042] Optionally, when the first switch Q1, the second switch Q2, the third switch Q3 and the fourth switch Q4 are all in the on state, and the fifth switch Q5, the sixth switch Q6, the seventh switch Q7, the eighth switch Q8, the ninth switch Q9 and the tenth switch Q10 are all in the off state, the first terminal, the first energy storage module C1, the second energy storage module C2, the third energy storage module C3 and the second terminal are connected in series in sequence, such as Figure 4 shown.

[0043] In this case, the first voltage V1 corresponding to the first terminal is the sum of the first energy storage voltage VC1 corresponding to the first energy storage module C1, the second energy storage voltage VC2 corresponding to the second energy storage module C2, the third energy storage voltage VC3 corresponding to the third energy storage module C3, and the second voltage V2 corresponding to the second terminal, that is, V1=VC1+VC2+VC3+V2.

[0044] According to some embodiments, when the operating voltages of the first energy storage module C1 , the second energy storage module C2 , and the third energy storage module C3 are the same, V1 = 4VC1 = 4VC2 = 4VC3 = 4V2 .

[0045] Optionally, in the case that the first switch Q1, the second switch Q2, the third switch Q3 and the fourth switch Q4 are all in the off state, and the fifth switch Q5, the sixth switch Q6, the seventh switch Q7, the eighth switch Q8, the ninth switch Q9 and the tenth switch Q10 are all in the on state, the first end of the first energy storage module C1, the first end of the second energy storage module C2 and the first end of the third energy storage module C3 are respectively connected with the second terminal, and the second end of the first energy storage module C1, the second end of the second energy storage module C2 and the second end of the third energy storage module C3 are grounded, as shown in Figure 5

[0046] Taking one scenario as an example, when the first terminal is an input terminal, the second terminal is an output terminal, and the models of the first energy storage module C1, the second energy storage module C2 and the third energy storage module C3 are the same, first, the first terminal, the first energy storage module C1, the second energy storage module C2, the third energy storage module C3 and the second terminal can be connected in series in turn, so that the first voltage V1 input by the first terminal is used to charge the first energy storage module C1, the second energy storage module C2 and the third energy storage module C3, until V1=4VC1=4VC2=4VC3. Then, the first energy storage module C1, the second energy storage module C2 and the third energy storage module C3 can be connected in parallel, so that the first energy storage module C1, the second energy storage module C2 and the third energy storage module C3 discharge to the second terminal, at this time, VC1=VC2=VC3=V2. Therefore, the two stages are run alternately, so that the second terminal can perform 4 times voltage reduction output.

[0047] Taking one scenario as an example, when the first terminal is an output terminal, the second terminal is an input terminal, first, the first energy storage module C1, the second energy storage module C2 and the third energy storage module C3 can be connected in parallel, so that the second voltage V2 input by the second terminal is used to charge the first energy storage module C1, the second energy storage module C2 and the third energy storage module C3, until VC1=VC2=VC3=V2. Then, the first terminal, the first energy storage module C1, the second energy storage module C2, the third energy storage module C3 and the second terminal can be connected in series in turn, so that the second terminal, the first energy storage module C1, the second energy storage module C2 and the third energy storage module C3 all provide output voltage for the first terminal, at this time, V1=VC1+VC2+VC3+V2=4V2. Therefore, the two stages are run alternately, so that the first terminal can perform 4 times voltage increase output.

[0048] Optionally, the charge pump circuit further comprises a fourth energy storage module COUT, the first end of the fourth energy storage module COUT is respectively connected with the first end of the fourth switch Q4, the second end of the ninth switch Q9 and the second terminal, and the second end of the fourth energy storage module COUT is grounded.

[0049] ​According to some embodiments, when the first terminal is an input terminal and the second terminal is an output terminal, and the first energy storage module C1, the second energy storage module C2, the third energy storage module C3, and the fourth energy storage module COUT are of the same model, the first terminal, the first energy storage module C1, the second energy storage module C2, the third energy storage module C3, and the second terminal can be controlled to be connected in series in sequence, so that the first voltage V1 input to the first terminal charges the first energy storage module C1, the second energy storage module C2, the third energy storage module C3, and the fourth energy storage module COUT until V1 = 4VC1 = 4VC2 = 4VC3 = 4VC4, where VC4 is the fourth energy storage voltage VC4 corresponding to the fourth energy storage module COUT. In this case, the second terminal stops outputting the second voltage V2.

[0050] Next, the first energy storage module C1, the second energy storage module C2, the third energy storage module C3, and the fourth energy storage module COUT can be controlled to be connected in parallel so that the first energy storage module C1, the second energy storage module C2, the third energy storage module C3, and the fourth energy storage module COUT discharge to the second terminal. At this time, VC1=VC2=VC3=VC4=V2.

[0051] Alternatively, the first energy storage module C1 , the second energy storage module C2 , the third energy storage module C3 and the second terminal may be disconnected, so that only the fourth energy storage module COUT discharges to the second terminal. In this case, VC4 = V2 .

[0052] Optionally, the first energy storage module C1 , the second energy storage module C2 , the third energy storage module C3 and the fourth energy storage module COUT each include at least one capacitor.

[0053] According to some embodiments, when the first energy storage module C1, the second energy storage module C2, the third energy storage module C3, and the fourth energy storage module COUT all include multiple capacitors, the connection mode between the multiple capacitors in each energy storage module includes at least one of series connection and parallel connection.

[0054] Optionally, each of the first switch Q1 , the second switch Q2 , the third switch Q3 , the fourth switch Q4 , the fifth switch Q5 , the sixth switch Q6 , the seventh switch Q7 , the eighth switch Q8 , the ninth switch Q9 and the tenth switch Q10 includes at least one sub-switch.

[0055] According to some embodiments, when the first switch Q1, the second switch Q2, the third switch Q3, the fourth switch Q4, the fifth switch Q5, the sixth switch Q6, the seventh switch Q7, the eighth switch Q8, the ninth switch Q9, and the tenth switch Q10 each include multiple sub-switches, the connection mode between the multiple sub-switches in each switch includes at least one of a series connection and a parallel connection.

[0056] In some embodiments, the type of the sub-switch includes, but is not limited to, a mechanical switch, an N-type transistor, a P-type transistor, etc. The type of the transistor includes, but is not limited to, a Bipolar Junction Transistor (BJT), a Gate Turn-off Thyristor (GTO), an Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT), an Integrated Gate Commuted Transistor (IGCT), a Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor (MOSFET, MOS), a Gallium Nitride Field Effect Transistor (GaNFET), etc.

[0057] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 5, the sub-switch can also include a transistor and a diode connected in anti-parallel with the transistor. The connection point between the drain of the transistor and the negative electrode of the diode is the first end of the sub-switch, and the connection point between the source of the transistor and the positive electrode of the diode is the second end of the sub-switch. Figure 3

[0058] It should be noted that, compared with the circuit shown in FIG. 1, the fifth switch Q5 and the sixth switch Q6 can be reduced from 3 times the output voltage to 2 times the output voltage, and the seventh switch Q7 and the eighth switch Q8 can be reduced from 2 times the output voltage to 1 times the output voltage.

[0059] In summary, the charge pump circuit provided by the embodiments of the present application can have the working voltage of each energy storage module as the output voltage, can use low-voltage capacitors, and can reduce the cost and area of the charge pump circuit. In addition, compared with the prior art, the voltage resistance of some switches is significantly reduced, lower-process switches can be used, and the cost and area of the charge pump circuit can be reduced.
