Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of filters, and particularly to an EMI suppression method and system based on weak coupling integration of piezoelectric ceramics. Background Art

[0002] In modern electronic systems, electromagnetic interference (EMI) suppression has always been an important technical problem, especially in application scenarios with high power density requirements and strict restrictions on size and weight. Passive EMI filters are widely used in various power electronic devices due to their simple structure and low cost. However, they often face limitations in terms of design flexibility, volume, and weight in practical applications. Especially in the context of the increasing popularity of high-frequency switching devices (such as GaN and SiC in wide bandgap semiconductor technology), the EMI problem has become even more serious, which is particularly significant in application scenarios with extremely high system performance requirements, such as aerospace, military, and portable devices.

[0003] Although the introduction of wide bandgap semiconductors has significantly improved the power density and conversion efficiency of electronic systems, their large voltage change rate has also made the EMI problem more complex. To effectively suppress EMI with a high interference level, traditional passive EMI filters often need to increase the size or use more filtering elements, which to a certain extent weakens the power density advantage brought by wide bandgap technology. Therefore, in these application scenarios, how to optimize the size, weight, and cost of the filter while meeting the EMI suppression requirements has become a key problem that engineers urgently need to solve.

[0004] Piezoelectric ceramics exhibit impedance characteristics similar to capacitors in a wide frequency range, so they can replace the Y capacitors in passive EMI filters and effectively suppress common-mode EMI. In addition, piezoelectric ceramics have a low impedance at the resonant frequency, so that a large attenuation of discrete interference peaks can be achieved. Based on the above characteristics of piezoelectric ceramics, applying them to passive EMI filters not only helps to optimize the weight and size of the filter, but also improves the power density of the device, thereby enhancing the efficiency of the overall system.

[0005] For example, Chinese Patent Publication No. CN118920043A, titled "An EMI Filter Integration Method Based on a Multidimensional Stacking Method of Piezoelectric Ceramics", uses piezoelectric ceramics and stacks them. However, stacking can only suppress a single interference peak and has poor adaptability. How to suppress interference peaks at multiple frequencies is the problem faced currently. Summary of the Invention

[0046] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the present invention.

[0047] Refer to Figure 1 , an electromagnetic interference suppression method based on weak coupling integration of piezoelectric ceramics provided by an embodiment of the present invention performs the following steps S1 - step S5, and can realize the integration of a weak coupling piezoelectric ceramic filter based on planar expansion (i.e., integration in the planar direction).

[0048] Through weak coupling integration, the piezoelectric ceramics of the present invention can suppress multiple interference peaks, thereby further reducing the size and weight of the common mode inductor to achieve the lightweight and compactness of the filter.

[0049] "Weak coupling" is to connect piezoelectric ceramics of different sizes by decoupling the connection points of the piezoelectric ceramics, thereby suppressing interference peaks at multiple frequencies.

[0050] Specifically, it includes:

[0051] Step S1: Propose an electromechanical model under the radial vibration mode of a single-piece piezoelectric ceramic and list its equivalent circuit parameter equations;

[0052] The electromechanical model is an electromechanical structure. Refer to Figure 2 the radial vibration mode of the piezoelectric ceramic shown, where p is the polarization direction, U1 and U2 are the directions of the radial vibration mode, and its equivalent circuit structure is as Figure 3 shown, and the corresponding equivalent circuit parameter equations are as follows:

[0053]

[0054] In the formula, is the dielectric constant component under constant stress, k p is the electromechanical coupling coefficient, l and c are the length and thickness of the piezoelectric ceramic respectively, σ E is the Poisson's ratio, h is an odd number representing the number of resonances, ρ is the density of the material, is the elastic compliance constant, Q mi is the mechanical quality factor, C R represents the inherent capacitance of the piezoelectric ceramic, C Ri represents the spring stiffness, L Ri represents the inertial mass, R Ri represents the mechanical loss, and there are the following relationships:

[0055]

[0056] In the formula, f Ri represents the resonant frequency, i is the number of piezoelectric modules, j is the imaginary number, ω is the angular frequency, and Z R represents the impedance expression in the radial vibration mode of the piezoelectric ceramic.

[0057] Step S2: According to the impedance expression in the radial vibration mode of the piezoelectric ceramic proposed in Step S1, the impedance expression of its electromechanical model in the weakly coupled integrated state can be listed:

[0058]

[0059] where n represents the number of piezoelectric modules, and Z Ri represents the impedance of the weakly coupled integration of the piezoelectric ceramic, R Rn represents the mechanical loss, L Rn represents the inertial mass, C Rn represents the spring stiffness, and its equivalent circuit structure is as shown in Figure 4 shown.

[0060] Step S3: Combining the piezoelectric parameter equation proposed in Step S1 and the impedance expression listed in Step S2, the correlation function of the physical dimensions, material parameters, and resonant frequency of the piezoelectric ceramic in the weakly coupled integrated state can be established:

[0061]

[0062] In the formula, f r,i represents the resonant frequency of the piezoelectric ceramic in the weakly coupled integrated state.

[0063] Step S4: Determine the gap size threshold between the piezoelectric ceramics under the weak coupling condition;

[0064] Import the correlation function into the finite element simulation software, and set the electromechanical coupling coefficient in the software to obtain the threshold range.

[0065] Since too large a size at the connection will affect the selection accuracy of the resonant frequency of the piezoelectric ceramic, and too small a size may lead to insufficient mechanical strength, thus affecting the stability and reliability of the piezoelectric ceramic. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the gap size threshold between the piezoelectric ceramics under the weak coupling condition. The gap size is the size of the connection between the piezoelectric ceramics.

[0066] Based on the finite element method and piezoelectric material parameters, an electromechanical model of the piezoelectric ceramic in the weakly coupled integrated state is constructed, as shown in Figure 5 shown, where 1-8 represent 8 piezoelectric modules integrated in a weakly coupled manner; the piezoelectric module specifically refers to: after the piezoelectric ceramics are integrated, it is used to describe a single piezoelectric ceramic.

[0067] Establish the electromechanical coupling coefficient equation between modules in the weakly coupled integrated state of piezoelectric ceramics:

[0068]

[0069] In the formula, Δx j represents the deformation of the nth piezoelectric module, and x j represents the initial size of the nth piezoelectric module, ΔU i represents the voltage variable of the ith piezoelectric module, and U i represents the initial voltage of the ith piezoelectric module, and k ij represents the electromechanical coupling coefficient between modules in the weakly coupled integrated state of piezoelectric ceramics.

[0070] Determine the gap size threshold between piezoelectric ceramics under weak coupling conditions. The correlation function of its physical size, material parameters and resonance frequency can be imported into the finite element simulation software, so as to simulate the influence of different gap sizes on the resonance frequency of piezoelectric ceramics.

[0071] When it can be considered that the coupling will not affect the resonance frequency of each piezoelectric module. If it is greater, it means that the resonance frequencies will affect each other and need to be adjusted.

[0072] An electromagnetic interference suppression system based on weakly coupled integration of piezoelectric ceramics, comprising:

[0073] A single impedance module, used to propose the electromechanical model under the radial vibration mode of a single piezoelectric ceramic and list its equivalent circuit parameter equation, and obtain the impedance expression under the radial vibration mode of the piezoelectric ceramic;

[0074] A coupling module, used to list the impedance expression of the electromechanical model in the weakly coupled integrated state of piezoelectric ceramics;

[0075] A correlation module, used to establish the correlation function of physical size, material parameters and resonance frequency in the weakly coupled integrated state of piezoelectric ceramics;

[0076] A determination module, used to determine the gap size threshold between piezoelectric ceramics under weak coupling conditions based on the correlation function, so as to realize the integration of weakly coupled piezoelectric ceramic filters based on planar expansion.

[0077] In application, taking two piezoelectric modules with a thickness of 1 mm and lengths of 10 mm and 5 mm respectively as an example, it can be calculated by the finite element method that when the size of the connection part is less than l = 2 mm and c = 1 mm, Therefore, the present invention sets the size of the connection part to l = 2 mm and c = 1 mm, so as to realize the integration of weakly coupled piezoelectric ceramic filters based on planar expansion, as Figure 6As shown. Apply it to the input end of a flyback converter (switching frequency is 167 kHz) to replace the Y capacitor as an interference suppression component (such as Figure 7 shown), it can significantly attenuate the interference peaks at its switching frequency and second harmonic (such as Figure 8 shown), thereby effectively reducing the size and weight of the common-mode inductor to achieve the lightweight and compactness of the filter. This method is also applicable to other types of filters.

[0078] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above specific embodiments. Without departing from the core idea of the present invention, those of ordinary skill in the art can still make various changes and adjustments to the present invention within the scope of their professional knowledge.
