[0002] With the advancement of the times, high-frequency switching power supplies are gradually developing towards intelligentization, high power density, and higher efficiency. The components of switching power supplies are constantly improving, especially power semiconductors, which are developing rapidly. Besides power semiconductors, magnetic components are also a key component of high-frequency switching power supplies. Magnetic components primarily include inductors and transformers.

[0041] To help those skilled in the art better understand this solution, the following will clearly describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this solution in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of this solution, not all of it. Based on the embodiments of this solution, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of this solution.
[0042] Throughout the specification, claims, and accompanying figures of this solution, the term "including" and any variations thereof mean "including, but not limited to," and are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions and are not limited to the examples listed herein. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second," etc., are used to distinguish between different objects, not to describe a specific order.
[0043] The following is a detailed description of the implementation of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0044] At present, the industry mainly uses several common topologies for high-frequency switching power supplies, including boost circuit, buck circuit, LLC resonant conversion circuit, phase-shifted full-bridge circuit, forward circuit and flyback circuit. Figure 1 , Figure 1 The following figure shows a common LLC resonant conversion circuit structure diagram. Figure 1 In the LLC circuit, the inductor, capacitor, and transformer components in the resonant network exist independently. Due to its zero-voltage switching (ZVS) characteristics, this circuit can significantly reduce switching losses and is widely used in high-efficiency power supply designs. However, its inherent drawback is that the output voltage range is narrow. When the LLC circuit needs to output a low voltage, the switching frequency (fsw) must be higher than the resonant frequency (fr), causing the circuit to enter the "capacitive region" operating mode. At this time, the parasitic capacitance of the switching tube cannot be fully discharged, causing hard switching, increasing losses and reducing reliability. In addition, the design of fixed resonant parameters (leakage inductance Lr, excitation inductance Lm, resonant capacitor Cr) is difficult to adapt to the requirements of a wide range of output voltages, especially in scenarios with fluctuating input voltages or dynamic load changes, which further deteriorates system performance.
[0045] Traditional solutions often extend the output range through multi-stage conversion or auxiliary circuits, but such methods increase system complexity and cost. For example:
[0046] Multi-stage LLC cascade: requires multiple sets of resonant cavities and independent control circuits, which is bulky and has limited efficiency.
[0047] Variable capacitance adjustment: Cr is adjusted through mechanical or electronic switches, but the capacitance switching response is slow and it is easy to introduce parasitic parameter interference.
[0048] Frequency conversion control relies solely on frequency regulation, but efficiency drops sharply when the frequency deviates beyond the resonant window. Therefore, a technical solution that can dynamically adjust the resonant parameters and maintain high-efficiency output over a wide range is urgently needed.
[0049] To address the limited output voltage range, low efficiency in low-voltage operating conditions, and poor reliability of existing LLC resonant converter circuits, embodiments of the present application provide a switching power supply that, by configuring multiple primary coils on the primary side of a transformer, can precisely control the magnetizing inductance and leakage inductance of the resonant network by adjusting the number of primary coils connected in series. This effectively changes the resonant frequency of the switching power supply, improving the efficiency of the LLC resonant converter circuit.
[0050] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a switching power supply provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 The switching power supply includes: a resonant network; the resonant network includes a transformer T1; the transformer T1 includes a secondary coil and a primary coil module, the primary coil module includes a first primary coil and at least one coil unit; wherein each coil unit includes a second primary coil, a first switch K1 and a second switch K2;
[0051] The first end of the first primary coil is the first end of the primary coil module, the coil units are connected in series, and the first end of the series connection is connected to the second end of the first primary coil, and the second end of the series connection is the second end of the primary coil module;
[0052] For any coil unit, the coil unit includes a first end and a second end, and the first end of the first switch K1 and the first end of the second switch K2 of the coil unit are both connected to the first end of the coil unit, the second end of the first switch K1 of the coil unit is connected to the first end of the corresponding second primary coil, and the second end of the second switch K2 of the coil unit and the second end of the second primary coil of the coil unit are both connected to the second end of the coil unit.
[0053] In this embodiment, the switching power supply may include a boost circuit, a buck circuit, an LLC resonant conversion circuit, a phase-shifted full-bridge circuit, a forward circuit, and a flyback circuit. This embodiment takes the LLC resonant conversion circuit as an example to explain the specific structure of the switching power supply.
[0054] Specifically, the switching power supply includes a resonant network, in which the resonant inductor and the transformer T1 are integrated together, and the leakage inductance of the transformer T1 is used to replace the resonant inductor in the circuit. The resonant inductance of the resonant network can be adjusted by adjusting the number of turns of the primary coil. The structure has a higher degree of integration and no longer requires a separate resonant inductor, which can improve the power density of the LLC resonant conversion circuit.
[0055] Secondly, in order to adjust the number of turns of the primary coil, this embodiment provides multiple second primary coils, and provides a first switch K1 and a second switch K2 between the multiple second primary coils. By adjusting the switching states of the first switch K1 and the second switch K2, the number of second primary coils connected in series with the first primary coil can be controlled, thereby controlling the number of turns of the primary coil of the transformer T1.
[0056] Specifically, multiple coil units are connected in series, and except for the first coil unit, the first end of each coil unit is connected to the second end of the previous coil unit. The first end of the first coil unit is connected to the second end of the first primary coil L1, and the second end of the last coil unit is the second end of the primary coil module. With this structure, the user can connect the desired number of coil turns by controlling the first switch K1 to close and the second switch K2 to open for each of the following coil units, starting with the first coil unit. The first switch K1 corresponding to the remaining unneeded coil units is then opened and the second switch K2 is closed, so that the second primary coil L2 corresponding to the required coil unit is connected in series with the first primary coil L1, achieving arbitrary changes in the number of primary coil turns.
[0057] As another embodiment, multiple coil units are connected in series, and except for the first coil unit, the second ends of the other coil units are connected to the first end of the previous coil unit, the second end of the first coil unit is connected to the second end of the first primary coil L1, and the first end of the last coil unit is the second end of the primary coil module.
[0058] With the above structure, the user can connect a desired number of coil turns by controlling the first switch K1 of each coil unit, closing the first switch K1 and opening the second switch K2, to connect the second primary coil L2 to the loop. The user can also disconnect the first switch K1 and close the second switch K2 of other unnecessary coil units, bypassing the unnecessary second primary coil L2. This allows for arbitrary changes in the number of primary coil turns.
[0059] Specifically, the leakage inductance Lr is determined by the total leakage magnetic flux of the primary coil and is proportional to the number of second primary coils L2 connected in series; the excitation inductance Lm is affected by the total number of turns of the primary coil, and its effective value can be adjusted by increasing or decreasing the number of second primary coils L2.
[0060] The expression of resonant frequency Fr is: By changing the combination of Lr and Lm, the resonant frequency range can be expanded to adapt to different output voltage requirements.
[0061] As can be seen from the above embodiment, the above structure, by configuring multiple primary coils on the primary side of transformer T1, can achieve precise control of the excitation inductance and leakage inductance of the resonant network by adjusting the number of primary coils connected in series. In this way, the resonant frequency of the switching power supply can be effectively changed. Specifically, when the system needs to output a low voltage, the resonant frequency can be increased by increasing the number of primary coils connected in series. This can effectively avoid the problem of reduced efficiency of the switching power supply due to the switching frequency being higher than the resonant frequency, thereby significantly reducing the energy loss of the switching power supply during operation and improving its overall operating efficiency and stability.
[0062] In one possible implementation, Figure 2 As shown, the resonant network further includes a first capacitor Cr; the first capacitor Cr and the primary coil module are connected in series.
[0063] As can be seen from the above embodiment, the first capacitor Cr is connected in series with the primary coil module, which is suitable for high voltage input scenarios and can reduce the capacitor withstand voltage requirement.
[0064] In a possible implementation, the resonant network further includes a first capacitor Cr;
[0065] The first capacitor Cr and the primary coil module are connected in parallel.
[0066] As can be seen from the above embodiment, the first capacitor Cr is connected in parallel across the primary coil, which is suitable for high current working conditions and reduces the influence of the capacitor equivalent series resistance (ESR).
[0067] In a possible implementation, the switching power supply further includes a primary switch module; the primary switch module includes a first switch bridge arm and a second switch bridge arm;
[0068] The first end of the first switch bridge arm and the first end of the second switch bridge arm are both connected to the first input end of the primary switch module, and the second end of the first switch bridge arm and the second end of the second switch bridge arm are both connected to the second input end of the primary switch module;
[0069] The midpoint of the first switch bridge arm is connected to the first end of the primary coil module;
[0070] A midpoint of the second switch bridge arm is connected to the second end of the primary coil module.
[0071] In this embodiment, the first switch bridge arm includes a first switch tube unit Q1 and a third switch tube unit Q3; the second switch bridge arm includes a second switch tube unit Q2 and a fourth switch tube unit Q4. The primary switch module also includes an input capacitor Cin. The first end of the input capacitor Cin, the first end of the first switch tube unit Q1, and the first end of the second switch tube unit Q2 are all connected to the first input end of the primary switch module. The second end of the first switch tube unit Q1 is connected to the first end of the third switch tube unit Q3, and the second end of the second switch tube unit Q2 is connected to the first end of the fourth switch tube unit Q4. The second end of the input capacitor Cin, the second end of the third switch tube unit Q3, and the second end of the fourth switch tube unit Q4 are all connected to the second input end of the primary switch module.
[0072] Specifically, each switch tube unit includes an IGBT switch tube, a capacitor, and a diode. The drain of the IGBT switch tube, one end of the capacitor, and the cathode of the diode are connected to the first end of the switch tube unit, and the source of the IGBT switch tube, the other end of the capacitor, and the anode of the diode are connected to the second end of the switch tube unit. The first end of the primary coil module is connected to the midpoint of the first switch bridge arm (the connection point between the first and second switch tube units), and the second end of the primary coil module is connected to the midpoint of the second switch bridge arm (the connection point between the third and fourth switch tube units).
[0073] In this embodiment, the gate of each IGBT switch tube is also connected to the corresponding pulse generator, and each pulse generator is connected to the controller. The controller is used to control the on and off of each IGBT switch tube, and the output voltage is controlled by controlling the on and off of the IGBT switch tube.
[0074] It can be seen from the above embodiments that the dual half-bridge structure of the primary switch module can reduce the current stress of a single switch tube and improve system reliability, and is particularly suitable for kilowatt-level high-power applications.
[0075] In a possible implementation, the switching power supply further includes a secondary side rectifier module;
[0076] The secondary side rectifier module includes a first diode D1, a second diode D2, a third diode D3 and a fourth diode D4;
[0077] The cathode of the first diode D1 and the cathode of the second diode D2 are both connected to the first output terminal of the switching power supply;
[0078] The anode of the first diode D1 is connected to the cathode of the third diode D3, and the anode of the second diode D2 is connected to the cathode of the fourth diode D4;
[0079] The first end of the secondary coil is connected to the anode of the first diode D1, and the second end of the secondary coil is connected to the anode of the second diode D2;
[0080] The anode of the third diode D3 and the anode of the fourth diode D4 are both connected to the second output end of the switching power supply.
[0081] In this embodiment, the secondary rectifier module further includes an output capacitor Cout, one end of the output capacitor Cout is connected to the output end of the switching power supply, and the other end of the output capacitor Cout is connected to the second output end of the switching power supply.
[0082] In one embodiment, the switching power supply further includes a controller and a driver module. The controller is configured to control the on / off switching of switches Q1-Q4 using complementary PWM signals, generating a high-frequency square wave to excite the primary side of transformer T1. The controller is further configured to adjust the switching states of the first switch K1 and the second switch K2 in each coil unit based on a given output voltage.
[0083] refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 A flow chart of a control method for a switching power supply provided by an embodiment of the present invention is shown. The control method is applied to the switching power supply described above and is described in detail as follows:
[0084] S101: Obtaining a given output voltage value of the switching power supply;
[0085] S102: According to the magnitude of the given value of the output voltage in the switching power supply, the switching states of the first switch K1 and the second switch K2 in each coil unit are adjusted to adjust the leakage inductance and the excitation inductance of the resonant network.
[0086] Specifically, in the control strategy of the switching power supply, the controller is used to obtain the output voltage set value of the switching power supply, and to sample the real-time output voltage actual value, and determine the voltage loop control quantity based on the difference between the output voltage actual value and the output voltage set value, determine the current loop set value based on the voltage loop control quantity, and sample the output current actual value of the switching power supply, and determine the target control quantity based on the difference between the current loop set value and the current loop actual value, determine the switching frequency of the primary switching module based on the target control quantity, and generate a PWM signal to control the primary switching module based on the switching frequency, and the switching frequency must be less than or equal to the resonant frequency of the resonant network.
[0087] In order to ensure that the switching frequency is less than or equal to the resonant frequency of the resonant network, this embodiment can calculate the switching frequency of the current cycle according to the output voltage given value after obtaining the output voltage given value, and adjust the switching state of the first switch K1 and the second switch K2 of each coil unit in the resonant network based on the switching frequency of the current cycle, so that the resonant frequency is greater than or equal to the switching frequency of the current cycle, thereby avoiding the problem of reduced efficiency of the switching power supply due to the switching frequency being higher than the resonant frequency, thereby significantly reducing the energy loss of the switching power supply during operation and improving its overall operating efficiency and stability.
[0088] In a possible implementation, the specific implementation process of S102 includes:
[0089] Determining a voltage range to which the output voltage given value belongs;
[0090] Determining the number of second primary coils that need to be connected in series with the first primary coil based on a preset voltage-switch table;
[0091] According to the number of second primary coils required to be connected in series with the second primary coil, the first switch K1 in the corresponding coil unit is controlled to be closed and the second switch K2 is controlled to be open.
[0092] In this embodiment, after adjusting the switch states of the first switch K1 and the second switch K2 in each coil unit, this embodiment can also calculate the turns ratio based on the excitation inductance of the primary coil and the inductance of the secondary coil before adjustment. Compared with network parameters Calculate the turns ratio based on the adjusted primary coil's magnetizing inductance and the secondary coil's inductance. Compared with network parameters Then, based on the turns ratio and network parameter ratio before and after adjustment, it is determined whether the adjusted resonant network parameters are optimal. If it is determined that the adjusted resonant network parameters are not good, the first switch K1 and the second switch K2 of each coil unit are readjusted.
[0093] In a possible implementation, another implementation process of S102 includes:
[0094] determining a current switching frequency of the switching power supply according to the output voltage given value;
[0095] Searching for a minimum resonant frequency greater than the switching frequency from a preset resonant frequency table; the preset resonant frequency table stores a plurality of resonant frequencies that the resonant network can output;
[0096] Based on the formula Determine the target excitation inductance and target leakage inductance corresponding to the minimum resonant frequency, and determine the number of second primary coils that need to be connected in series with the second primary coil based on the target excitation inductance and target leakage inductance; wherein, f r Represents the resonant frequency, L r Indicates leakage inductance, L m Indicates the excitation inductance, C r represents the capacitance of the resonant network;
[0097] According to the number of the second primary coils, the first switch K1 in the corresponding coil unit is controlled to be closed, and the second switch K2 is controlled to be open.
[0098] In this embodiment, multiple sets of coil units are provided to obtain multiple resonant frequencies of different sizes, so that the switching frequency can always be close to the resonant frequency but not greater than the resonant frequency, thereby maximizing the efficiency of the switching power supply.
[0099] In this embodiment, the controller uses an ARM Cortex-M series microprocessor coupled with a high-speed ADC (sampling rate 1MSPS) to acquire the actual output voltage Vout of the switching power supply in real time. The controller's memory stores a voltage-switching table and / or a resonant frequency table, and the processor outputs the switch drive signal via a GPIO.
[0100] As can be seen from the above embodiments, the switching power supply control method provided in this embodiment can support continuous output across a wide voltage range by dynamically adjusting the resonant parameters, effectively improving efficiency across the entire load range, with particularly significant advantages under low-voltage operating conditions. Furthermore, this embodiment can suppress the temperature rise of magnetic components, extending system life. Furthermore, the number of coil units in this embodiment can be increased or decreased as needed to accommodate different power levels.
[0101] It should be understood that the size of the serial numbers of the steps in the above embodiments does not mean the order of execution. The execution order of each process should be determined by its function and internal logic, and should not constitute any limitation on the implementation process of the embodiments of the present invention.
