Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of electrical component management. Background Art

[0002] With the development of electronic systems towards high power, high efficiency, and high reliability, switching power supplies, as the core components in power management, play a crucial role in ensuring the performance and stability of the overall system. However, despite the continuous improvement of manufacturing processes, in practical applications, key devices (such as power semiconductors like MOSFETs and IGBTs) still face problems such as accelerated aging and performance degradation when subjected to multiple stresses such as high temperature, frequent switching, and external radiation. Traditional monitoring methods mainly rely on the real-time detection of single parameters such as current, voltage, or temperature, and usually take protective measures only after obvious abnormalities or failures occur in the device. This post-alarm method not only makes it difficult to timely reflect the true health status of the device but also unable to predict the remaining life of the device in advance, resulting in unplanned outages or premature failures of the device during actual operation, which has an adverse impact on the long-term reliability and maintenance cost of the system.

[0003] In addition, although some current improvement schemes attempt to introduce data-driven or machine learning methods to predict device aging, these methods often ignore the internal physical degradation mechanisms of key devices, and it is difficult to comprehensively characterize the degradation process of devices under complex working conditions with only data-driven models. At the same time, most prediction models lack the quantification of the uncertainty of prediction results and cannot provide sufficient risk assessment basis for operation and maintenance personnel. After detecting abnormalities, existing systems mostly stay at the alarm level and lack real-time feedback regulation of the driving parameters (such as PWM frequency and gate voltage) of key devices in switching power supplies, thus unable to effectively reduce the device load, improve the heat dissipation condition, and reduce switching losses.

With the help of physical modeling and adaptive deep learning methods, this system can real-time predict the health state (SOH) and remaining useful life (RUL) of key devices, and provide credibility quantification for the prediction results through Bayesian uncertainty analysis. On this basis, this system also designs an intelligent feedback control module to realize real-time adjustment of drive parameters, so as to reduce the switching frequency and optimize the gate drive voltage under the device health state, thereby reducing power loss and heat accumulation and extending the device service life.

[0070] Table 1: Main hardware components and functions of the edge computing terminal of the DCDC converter key device health monitoring system

[0071]

[0072]

[0073] 1.1 Data acquisition and processing part

[0074] Use an ADC (digital-to-analog converter) and an ADC (high-speed) to collect the low-frequency and high-frequency signals of the device respectively, and obtain the discrete sampling sequence x[n].

[0075] For the high-speed ADC data noise, a new recursive low-pass filter is proposed:

[0076] y[n] = y[n - 1] + α(x[n] - y[n - 1]) + β(x[n] - 2x[n - 1] + x[n - 2]),

[0077] where y[n] is the output of the recursive low-pass filter, and n represents the sampling point index.

[0078] α controls the basic filtering response, and β introduces a second-order difference correction to suppress high-frequency jitter. By introducing the difference term, the robustness of the filter to sudden interference is improved.

[0079] For the MOSFET low-frequency signal collected by the ADC (digital-to-analog converter): the source-drain voltage drop V DS and the source-drain current I D , use the dynamic adaptive exponential filtering and drift correction method for data processing. This processing can achieve both rapid response to dynamic changes and suppression of noise and drift. The specific formula is as follows:

[0080]

[0081] In the formula, is the estimated value after filtering and drift correction, and α n represents the dynamic adaptive filtering coefficient, and Δ d represents the drift correction term.

[0082] For the dynamic adaptive filtering coefficient α n it can be obtained by the following formula:

[0084] In the formula, represents the noise variance calculated based on the most recent n samples; k is an adjustment constant used to control the influence of noise on the filtering weights.

[0085] The drift correction term Δ d is estimated by linear regression within a sliding window:

[0088] The second derivative and adaptive weights are introduced to more accurately capture the smooth transition region of the curve inflection point for the threshold voltage V th which is calculated as follows:

[0091] 1.2 Data Transmission Part

[0092] In the data transmission module, TLS is used to encrypt data transmission to ensure the security of data under the MQTT or UDP protocol. To prevent data loss during transmission, a dynamic polynomial CRC check is introduced. This method makes it adapt to environmental changes and further improves data integrity and security. The specific formula is:

[0093]

[0094] In the formula, CRC dyn represents the check result; Q represents the number of data bytes to be checked this time, data[q] represents the q-th data byte; h(q) represents a dynamic perturbation function based on the sine function and h(q) = |ζ·sin(ωq + φ)|; P q (x) is a dynamically selected polynomial generator, selected according to the real-time detected channel noise characteristics; MOD(·, P q(x) represents the polynomial modulo operation on the dynamic generator P q (x) polynomial modulo operation, where x represents a formal variable and does not represent a specific data value. It is used as a placeholder. ζ represents the sine perturbation amplitude, which is used to control the mask amplitude. ω represents the angular frequency, and φ represents the phase shift.

[0095] II. Cloud Computing End

[0096] 2.1 Physics-Based Adaptive Deep Learning Model

[0097] First, establish the MOSFET physical model, considering the device's low-frequency and high-frequency parameters: V DS 、V GS 、I D 、R DS(on) 、V th 、 and P sw etc. By normalizing, the dimensional differences are eliminated, enabling the contributions of each parameter to be superimposed within the same framework.

[0098] For the low-frequency parameters: V DS 、I D 、R DS(on) and V th , while considering the operating temperature and radiation effects, the MOSFET conduction state degradation model f cond (t) is established as:

[0099]

[0100] In the formula, V DS (t), I D (t), R DS(on) (t) and V th (t) are the V DS , I D , R DS(on) and V th at time t respectively. V DS (0), I D (0), R DS(on) (0) and V th (0) are the V DS , I D , R DS(on) and V th at the initial moment respectively. Then and respectively represent V DS (t), I D (t), R DS(on) (t) and V th(t) The normalized value relative to the initial state, which is used to reflect the change of device performance over time; α1, α2, α3, and α4 are the parameter exponential factors corresponding to each low-frequency parameter, which are used to characterize the non-linear effect of each parameter on aging; β1 is the low-frequency exponential factor for overall normalization and adjustment; E(t) is the low-frequency coupling factor, which is used to reflect the influence of the environment. The specific formula is as follows:

[0101]

[0102] In the formula, T(t) is the operating temperature at time t; T ref is the reference temperature; T s is the temperature scale factor, which determines the sensitivity of the temperature change to the aging rate; Φ(t) represents the dose rate at time t; λ is the low-frequency irradiation sensitivity coefficient, which reflects the acceleration effect of irradiation on device aging.

[0103] For high-frequency parameters and P sw , the MOSFET switching process degradation model f sw (t) is established as:

[0104]

[0105] In the formula, and P sw (t) are respectively the and P sw at time t, and P sw (0) are respectively the and P sw at the initial moment, and respectively represent the normalized values of the transient parameters and P sw (t) relative to the initial state. γ1, γ2, and γ3 are the parameter exponential factors corresponding to each high-frequency parameter respectively, β2 is the high-frequency exponential factor, and E(t) (sw) represents the high-frequency coupling factor. The specific formula is:

[0106]

[0107] In the formula, μ is the high-frequency irradiation sensitivity coefficient, which describes the irradiation sensitivity during the switching process.

[0108] Subsequently, the MOSFET on-state degradation model and the MOSFET switching process degradation model are integrated through the weight coefficient to establish the total degradation index model:

[0109] AI(t) = w cond ·f cond (t) + wsw ·f sw (t),

[0110] where AI(t) represents the total degradation index at time t; w cond represents the weight of on-state degradation, w sw represents the weight of switching process degradation, w cond +w sw = 1.

[0111] Furthermore, to intuitively reflect the health change of the MOSFET from the initial state to the degradation failure process, the health state SOH(t) of the device is defined as:

[0112]

[0113] where AI crit is the set critical aging index. When AI(t) reaches AI crit , the device is considered to have reached the failure boundary.

[0114] An adaptive Transformer deep learning model (Ad-Transformer) is established, which has the ability of adaptive dynamic adjustment. By adding a dynamically learnable attention adjustment term, a dynamic attention correction matrix A t is introduced:

[0115] A t = W A ·h t ,

[0116] where W A represents the learnable weight matrix for calculating the dynamic adjustment value; h t is the hidden state of the new data input.

[0117] The dynamic attention calculation is as follows:

[0118]

[0119] where Q, K, and V represent the multi-dimensional key parameter matrices of the device. The row index of the matrix corresponds to the time step, and the column index corresponds to the multi-dimensional feature coordinate system; d k represents the dimension of matrix K; softmax represents the attention weight determined after normalization.

[0120] For the loss function of Ad-Transformer, an Adaptive Bayesian Incremental Loss (ABiLoss) is established, specifically as follows: An incremental learning mechanism is established to enable the model to be partially updated when new data arrives, rather than being completely retrained, and to ensure that the model does not forget historical data; Bayesian regularization is established to model probability distributions, and an adaptive weighting term is established to enable the model to be adaptively adjusted. The specific form of the Adaptive Bayesian Incremental Loss function ABiLoss is as follows:

[0121]

[0122] In the formula, N is the number of input samples, M is the number of historical samples, M < N, i = 1, 2,..., N, j = 1, 2,..., M; λ1 is the MSE error weight, λ2 is the Bayesian regularization weight, and λ3 is the data distillation weight; is the predicted value of the i-th sample, is the actual value of the i-th sample; μ i represents the predicted average value of the i-th output sample, represents the prior distribution, i.e., the standard normal distribution; ω i is the dynamic weighting coefficient of the i-th sample, is the uncertainty estimate of the i-th sample, ∈ is a stability parameter to prevent unstable formula solving; KL(·) represents Bayesian regularization; is the output of the hidden layer of the model under the current iteration, is the output of the hidden layer of the model under the previous iteration.

[0123] To address the fast adaptability of the Ad-Transformer model adjustment under different working conditions of MOSFET, during the training of the Ad-Transformer model parameters, an Adaptive Incremental Meta-Learning method (AIML) for the Ad-Transformer model is established to calculate the loss under each working condition and update the hyperparameters of the Ad-Transformer model:

[0124] θ′ i = θ - αe i ▽L Ti (θ),

[0125] In the formula, θ i ′ is the updated parameter of the model under the i-th sample environmental condition, θ is the original parameter of the Ad-Transformer model, α is the inner loop learning rate, e i is the meta-learning adaptive factor, is the loss function under the i-th sample environmental condition, represents the loss gradient.

[0126] The Ad-Transformer model can automatically adjust and update the meta-learning adaptive factor e through the Bayesian incremental loss (ABiLoss). i :

[0127]

[0128] Subsequently, the Ad-Transformer model calculates the updated losses on multiple working conditions and calculates the global optimization direction θ of the parameters * :

[0129]

[0130] where β is the learning rate of the outer loop of the model.

[0131] To dynamically evaluate the credibility of the prediction, a Bayesian uncertainty quantification formula that combines the prediction error and the output variance of the Ad-Transformer model is introduced:[[]]

[0132]

[0133] where y pred represents the predicted life value, y true represents the true life value, σ represents the standard deviation of the prediction distribution of the Ad-Transformer model, κ and z are uncertainty adjustment parameters, and when the prediction error exceeds zσ, the uncertainty value U rises rapidly.

[0134] 2.2 Intelligent feedback control

[0135] The control part dynamically adjusts the drive parameters according to the health state SOH(t) and the Bayesian uncertainty U(t) output by the physics-based adaptive deep learning model, reduces the device working load, improves heat dissipation, and reduces switching losses. A decrease in SOH(t) or a high U(t) indicates that the device is in an aging or unstable working state. At this time, the controller will automatically adjust the numerical value of the PWM frequency or the gate drive voltage V GS to reduce heat accumulation and lower switching losses.

[0136] For the PWM frequency adjustment control law Δf PWM (t), a non-linear adjustment function is introduced to couple the health state error and the uncertainty:[[]]

[0137]

[0138] where SOH ref is the target health state, such as custom safety margins of 100%, 90%, etc.; H scale is the health state change scale factor; k0 is the base gain; k1 is the uncertainty adjustment coefficient.

[0139] When SOH(t) is lower than the target state, the tanh output tends to 1, thereby increasing Δf PWM (t); if U(t) is large, it further increases Δf PWM (t), and the updated real-time PWM frequency f PWM,new (t) is calculated by the formula:

[0140] f PWM,new (t) = f PWM,orig ·[1 - Δf PWM (t)],

[0141] where f PWM,orig is the initial set frequency.

[0142] For the gate drive voltage adjustment control law ΔV GS (t), the gate drive voltage is adjusted through the non-linear control law:

[0143]

[0144] where δ0 is the basic voltage adjustment coefficient and δ1 is the uncertainty sensitivity coefficient.

[0145] After updating, the formula for the real-time gate drive voltage is:

[0146] V GS,new (t) = V GS,orig -ΔV GS (t),

[0147] where V GS,orig is the initial drive voltage.

[0148] 2.3 Intelligent Report Generation

[0149] The "Intelligent Report Generation" module automatically generates a comprehensive report covering key contents such as real-time monitoring data, health status analysis, remaining life prediction, abnormal alarm, and operation and maintenance suggestions by integrating data and analysis results from the edge side and the cloud.

[0150] Obtain real-time parameters from the edge side, such as: source-drain voltage drop V DS , source-drain current I D , source-drain resistance R DS(on) , threshold voltage V th , transient switching voltage transient switching current and switching loss power P swExtract the predicted health state SOH(t), remaining life, Bayesian uncertainty U(t), and their historical parameter data of the deep learning model from the cloud. Analyze the data by selecting a large language model to complete the comprehensive interpretation of the data, and display the report through a text information list.

[0151] Specific implementation method 2: The life prediction and health management method for key devices of the switching power supply described in this implementation method includes:

[0152] Collect the key parameters of the key devices of the switching power supply. The key parameters include: source-drain voltage drop V DS , source-drain current I D , source-drain resistance R DS(on) , threshold voltage V th , transient switching voltage transient switching current and switching loss power P sw .

[0153] Specifically, this implementation method uses an ADC (analog-to-digital converter) and an ADC (high-speed) to collect the low-frequency and high-frequency signals of the device respectively, and obtains a discrete sampling sequence x[n].

[0154] For the high-speed ADC data noise, use a new recursive low-pass filter for filtering:
