Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] Electronic equipment needs power supply to work normally. The power supply can come from a direct current power supply system or an alternating current power grid. In order to stabilize the input power supply voltage and the input power supply outage holding time, an energy storage capacitor is often added to the rear circuit of the input side of the electronic equipment.
[0003] However, when the electronic equipment is powered on, the energy storage capacitor is instantaneously charged, which causes a huge start-up inrush current, that is, an inrush current or a surge current. The huge start-up inrush current is related to the input voltage, the capacitance of the energy storage capacitor and the start-up time. Specifically, the greater the capacitance of the energy storage capacitor, the greater the start-up inrush current; the higher the input voltage, the greater the start-up inrush current; and the shorter the start-up time, the greater the start-up inrush current. The excessive start-up inrush current can trigger the overcurrent protection mechanism of the electronic equipment to cause the electronic equipment to shut down. In addition, the excessive start-up inrush current can also cause the input fuse in the electronic equipment to melt.

[0031] Figure 1 is a structural block diagram of an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 1 , the electronic device 10 includes a pulsed pre-charge circuit 100, a power input 200, and a post-stage circuit 300. The pulsed pre-charge circuit 100 is disposed between the power input 200 and the post-stage circuit 300. The power input 200 is used to access an input power. The post-stage circuit 300 includes an energy storage capacitor. The pulsed pre-charge circuit 100 is adapted to pre-charge the energy storage capacitor by the input power.
[0032] Continuing to refer to Figure 2The pulse pre-charge circuit 100 in the embodiment includes a field effect tube 11, a pulse pre-charge control circuit 12 and a voltage sampling circuit 13. The field effect tube 11 includes an NMOS tube Q1. The pulse pre-charge control circuit 12 includes an operational amplifier OP1, a switch K1, a first reference power supply V2, a second reference power supply V1, a PWM control sub-circuit 121, a driving sub-circuit 122 and a feedback compensation sub-circuit 123. The voltage sampling circuit 13 includes a sampling resistor RS1. Specifically, the drain of the NMOS tube Q1 is connected to the positive pole of the power input end 200, i.e., the NMOS tube Q1 is close to the positive pole of the power input end 200. The source of the NMOS tube Q1 is connected to one end of the sampling resistor RS1 and the negative input end of the operational amplifier OP1, respectively. The other end of the sampling resistor RS1 is connected to one end of an energy storage capacitor C1. The other end of the energy storage capacitor C1 is connected to the negative pole of the power input end 200. One end of the switch K1 is connected to the positive input end of the operational amplifier OP1, and the other end of the switch K1 is connected to the positive pole of the first reference power supply V2 or the positive pole of the second reference power supply V1. In the embodiment, the negative pole of the first reference power supply V2 and the negative pole of the second reference power supply V1 are grounded, and the first reference power supply V2 is used to provide a first reference voltage, and the second reference power supply V1 is used to provide a second reference voltage. It can be understood that when the switch K1 is connected to the first reference power supply V2, the positive input end of the operational amplifier OP1 is connected to the positive pole of the first reference power supply V2, so that the first reference voltage is input to the positive input end of the operational amplifier OP1. Correspondingly, when the switch K1 is connected to the second reference power supply V1, the positive input end of the operational amplifier OP1 is connected to the positive pole of the second reference power supply V1, so that the second reference voltage is input to the positive input end of the operational amplifier OP1. In addition, in the embodiment, one end of the two power supply ends of the operational amplifier OP1 is connected to a voltage Vcc, and the other end is grounded, so that the operational amplifier OP1 can work normally. It should be noted that the application does not limit the implementation manner of the voltage sampling circuit, and in some embodiments, the voltage sampling circuit includes a current transformer.
[0033] With reference to the foregoing Figure 2, PWM control sub-circuit 121 is configured to control switch K1 to be connected to first reference power supply V2 and second reference power supply V1 alternately, so that operational amplifier OP1 outputs first output voltage corresponding to first reference power supply and second output voltage corresponding to second reference power supply alternately. Driving sub-circuit 122 is connected to output terminal of operational amplifier OP1 and gate of NMOS tube Q1 respectively, and driving sub-circuit 122 is adapted to convert first output voltage into first driving voltage and convert second output voltage into second driving voltage. It should be noted that first output voltage and second output voltage output by operational amplifier OP1 cannot directly drive NMOS tube Q1 to work in linear region, so first output voltage and second output voltage are amplified by driving sub-circuit 122, so that NMOS tube Q1 can be driven smoothly. Therefore, the present application does not limit the setting of driving sub-circuit, and in some embodiments, the driving sub-circuit can be any circuit or component which can generate corresponding driving voltage capable of driving field effect tube to work in linear region according to input voltage.
[0034] With reference to Figure 2 , feedback compensation sub-circuit 123 is connected between negative input terminal of operational amplifier OP1 and output terminal of operational amplifier OP1. In the embodiment, feedback compensation sub-circuit 123 is used to adjust first output voltage and second output voltage output by operational amplifier OP1. It can be understood that, in the embodiment, feedback compensation sub-circuit 123 includes resistance and capacitance to realize signal feedback. With reference to Figure 2 , in the embodiment, the other end of sampling resistance RS1 which is not connected to NMOS tube Q1 is taken as zero potential reference point, i.e. the other end of sampling resistance RS1 is grounded. It should be noted that, in the embodiment, zero potential reference point is provided by pulsed pre-charge control circuit 12, but the present application does not limit the setting mode of zero potential reference point, and in other embodiments, zero potential reference point can be provided by other circuit except pulsed pre-charge control circuit.
[0035] The specific circuit of pulsed pre-charge circuit 100 and the circuit connection relationship among pulsed pre-charge circuit 100, power input terminal 200 and subsequent circuit 300 have been described above. Next, the process that pulsed pre-charge circuit 100 of the embodiment pre-charges energy storage capacitor C1 by input power is described. With reference to Figure 2When the power input end 200 is connected to the input power and the pulsed pre-charge circuit 100 pre-charges the energy storage capacitor C1, the PWM control sub-circuit 121 controls the switch K1 to be connected to the first reference power V2 and the second reference power V1 alternately, so that the gate of the NMOS tube Q1 receives the first driving voltage and the second driving voltage alternately. When the NMOS tube Q1 receives the first driving voltage, the NMOS tube Q1 works in the linear region and generates a pre-charge current I1 flowing through the sampling resistor RS1 and the circuit where the energy storage capacitor C1 is located, which is called the first current. When the NMOS tube Q1 receives the second driving voltage, the NMOS tube Q1 works in the linear region and generates a pre-charge current I2 flowing through the sampling resistor RS1 and the circuit where the energy storage capacitor C1 is located, which is called the second current. In this embodiment, the current value of the first current is greater than the current value of the second current.
[0036] Further referring to Figure 3 , Figure 3 From top to bottom, they are the voltage Vin across the power input end 200 over time, the voltage across the energy storage capacitor C1 over time, and the pre-charge current over time, and the unit of each abscissa is millisecond (ms). As shown in Figure 3 , since the time t1, the power input end 200 is connected to the input power, so that the voltage Vin across the power input end 200 is not 0, thereby the pulsed pre-charge circuit 100 alternately generates the first current and the second current, and the current value of the first current is I1, and the current value of the second current is I2. Exemplarily, Figure 3 , the pulsed pre-charge circuit 100 generates the first current in the period from t1 to t2, and generates the second current in the period from t2 to t3. The first current and the second current are alternately used to pre-charge the energy storage capacitor C1 until the voltage across the energy storage capacitor reaches the preset voltage value Vo at the time tn, and then the pre-charge process is ended.
[0037] Further referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , in this embodiment, the minimum current value of the second current is 0.000001A, so when the NMOS tube Q1 works to generate the second current, the NMOS tube Q1 works in the near equivalent off mode, that is, the voltage between the source and the drain of the NMOS tube Q1 is close to zero. At this time, the power consumption of the NMOS tube Q1 is close to 0, so that the junction temperature of the NMOS tube Q1 can be greatly reduced, and then the NMOS tube Q1 can be out of the limitation of the safe operating area (SOA) corresponding to the linear region. Exemplarily, referring to Figure 4When the switching frequency of switch K1 controlled by PWM control subcircuit 121 is 10Hz or higher, the NMOS transistor Q1 operates within a safe operating range equivalent to a 100µs high-frequency switching mode. Conversely, when PWM control subcircuit 121 is not operating, the ordinary NMOS transistor Q1 can only operate within a certain frequency range. Figure 4 The safe working area range in DC mode. It should be noted that... Figure 4 "China" DS(on) In the "Limited work area" R DS(on) This represents the drain-source resistance of the field-effect transistor (FET) in the on-state. It can be seen that the PWM control sub-circuit 121 can significantly improve the safe operating range of the NMOS transistor Q1, thereby improving the overall circuit performance. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the NMOS transistor Q1 does not enter a fully off mode. In a fully off mode, the gate voltage of the NMOS transistor Q1 is low, and the corresponding drain and source voltages will experience voltage spikes, leading to electromagnetic interference. Conversely, since the NMOS transistor Q1 in this embodiment does not enter a fully off mode, its gate voltage remains above the gate voltage threshold, thus preventing voltage spikes and avoiding electromagnetic interference.
[0038] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the value of the first current is adjusted by the first reference power supply V2, the sampling resistor RS1, and the feedback compensation sub-circuit 123. Since the other end of the sampling resistor RS1 is a zero-potential reference point, the end of RS1 connected to the feedback compensation sub-circuit 123 can obtain the sampling voltage formed by the first current flowing through RS1. Subsequently, the feedback compensation sub-circuit 123 uses the sampling voltage to form voltage feedback, thereby adjusting the first driving voltage and stabilizing the value of the first current at a preset value. Correspondingly, the value of the second current is adjusted by the second reference power supply V1, the sampling resistor RS1, and the feedback compensation sub-circuit 123, and the principle is the same as that of the first current adjustment, which will not be repeated here.
[0039] In addition, in the embodiment, the PWM control sub-circuit 121 controls the switching frequency of the switch K1, so that the first current and the second current have different duty cycles, thereby meeting the requirements of the start-up delay time and the peak limit of the charging current. For example, when the power-on impact current needs to be less than 5 times the rated current, and the start-up delay needs to be less than 100 ms, for some energy storage applications, for large input capacitors (usually 10000uF and 20000uF, or even larger), and for pre-charging the output energy storage capacitor with power factor correction (PFC) in the AC input circuit, the prior art solution must increase the power of the charging resistor, which in turn increases the volume of the resistor, or significantly increases the rated current and rated voltage capacity of the transistor, and the heat sink also needs to be increased accordingly, thereby increasing the volume of the system, which cannot meet the requirements of the volume and weight of the system. The pulse pre-charging circuit 100 of the embodiment can change the size of the pre-charging current by controlling the switching frequency of the switch K1 by the PWM control sub-circuit 121, thereby meeting the requirements of the start-up delay time and the peak limit of the charging current.
[0040] It should be noted that the application does not limit the field effect transistor to be an NMOS transistor or to be arranged at the positive side of the power input terminal. The circuit structure of the pulse pre-charging circuit under different field effect transistor arrangements will be described below. It can be understood that the working principle of the pulse pre-charging circuit in the following embodiments is the same as that of the pulse pre-charging circuit in the first embodiment, and will not be repeated hereinafter. In addition, in order to facilitate description, the components or circuits corresponding to the first embodiment in the following embodiments use the same marks, and the same function of the same components or the same circuit will not be repeated.
