DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the implementation methods of the present application will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0020] like Figure 2As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a current sampling circuit based on a gallium nitride power tube, the current sampling circuit includes an upper tube sampling circuit 210 and a lower tube sampling circuit 220, the upper tube sampling circuit 210 is used to sample the upper tube M in the high-voltage switching power supply T For current sampling, the lower tube adopts circuit 220 for sampling the lower tube M in the high voltage switching power supply. B Perform current sampling.

[0021] In this embodiment, the upper tube M T and down tube M B The sampling circuit uses a silicon sampling tube for the GaN power tube. However, the on-resistance of the silicon sampling tube does not match the on-resistance of the GaN power tube at different temperatures. Therefore, temperature compensation is required to ensure that the on-resistance ratio of the silicon sampling tube to the upper tube and the lower tube remains consistent within different temperature ranges.

[0022] Specifically, a resistor compensation array can be used to match the on-resistance of the silicon sampling tube and the gallium nitride power tube. The resistor compensation array is composed of a resistor with a positive temperature coefficient and a resistor with a negative temperature coefficient connected in series, such as Figure 3 As shown, R PT1 , R PT2 , R PT3 , R PT4 and R PT5 Represents a resistor with a positive temperature coefficient, R NT1 , R NT2 , R NT3 , R NT4 and R NT5 Indicates a resistor with a negative temperature coefficient. Of course, in actual use, the number of resistors can be set according to actual needs, and there is no limitation here.

[0023] When the resistance compensation matrix is ​​used for the first time, the resistance compensation matrix needs to be calibrated. Specifically, when the slope of the temperature curve of the on-resistance of the silicon sampling tube is greater than the slope of the temperature curve of the on-resistance of the gallium nitride power tube, we will blow the fuse with the negative temperature coefficient resistor to connect the resistor to the sampling circuit. Similarly, when the slope of the temperature curve of the on-resistance of the silicon sampling tube is less than the slope of the temperature curve of the on-resistance of the gallium nitride power tube, we will blow the fuse with the positive temperature coefficient resistor to connect the resistor to the sampling circuit. After calibration, the resistors connected to the sampling circuit in the resistance compensation matrix are fixed, and there is no need to adjust the resistance compensation matrix when using the sampling circuit subsequently.

[0027] Down tube M B When the current flows from V SW Flowing to ground (current I MB direction is positive), the second temperature compensation module 221 is used to control V in the second negative feedback module 222 A =V B , so that the second silicon sampling tube M SH4 The second lower sampling tube resistance compensation array flows through the lower tube M B The sampling current I MB Proportional forward current I SHP , or, when current flows from ground to V SW (Current I MB direction is negative), by controlling V A =V B , so that the second silicon sampling tube M SH3 The second upper sampling tube resistor compensation array flows through the lower tube M B The sampling current I MB Proportional negative current I SHN The second current mirror module 223 is used to convert the forward current I SHP Or negative current I SHN The image output is sent to the sampling resistor R in the sampling module 214. SNS ; The sampling module 214 is used to calculate the forward current I SHP Or negative current I SHN Calculate the lower tube MB The sampling current I MB .
