Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of power electronics technology, and in particular to an adaptive wave-by-wave current limiting protection method, system, device and medium for interleaved parallel Boost converters. Background Technology

[0002] Interleaved parallel boost converters effectively reduce input current ripple and improve the system's power level and power density through multi-phase parallel and interleaved operation, and are therefore widely used in high-voltage and high-power applications requiring DC-DC conversion.

[0003] In these critical applications, system reliability is paramount. Overcurrent protection is a core technology for ensuring the safety of power switching devices (such as MOSFETs and IGBTs) and the entire converter. Currently, the most commonly used protection scheme in the industry is wave-by-wave current limiting protection with a fixed threshold. This technology sets a fixed peak current threshold for each phase, and when the switching current exceeds this threshold, the drive signal is immediately shut off within the current switching cycle. This traditional fixed threshold scheme has the following shortcomings: 1. The contradiction between dynamic performance and safety: To ensure operational safety under harsh conditions such as heavy-load startup and drastic load changes, the fixed threshold setting needs to be relatively conservative. However, this sacrifices the dynamic performance of the system, resulting in a slow startup process to avoid inrush current; when the load suddenly increases, the output voltage drops too much, and due to premature current limiting, it cannot provide enough instantaneous energy, causing the equipment to shut down due to undervoltage.

[0004] 2. Rigid protection strategy: Fixed thresholds cannot distinguish between normal instantaneous overloads (such as motor heavy load start-up) and dangerous short circuit faults, which may cause the system to perform unnecessary frequent protection during normal overloads, affecting continuous operation.

[0005] 3. Inability to adapt to environmental changes: The overcurrent capability of power devices changes with conditions such as temperature, current and voltage. Fixed thresholds cannot utilize this margin, resulting in excessive redundancy in system design and underutilization of performance. Summary of the Invention

[0007] To address this, the present invention provides an adaptive wave-by-wave current limiting protection method for interleaved parallel Boost converters, which overcomes the inherent contradiction between dynamic performance and safety in fixed threshold wave-by-wave current limiting protection.

If I Lmax> I CRM , the upper limit value of the per-wave limited dynamic threshold I limit_dynamic is reduced to 0.5 I CRM ~0.8 [[ID=३२]] I CRM ; If I Lmax≤ I CRM , the upper limit value of the per-wave limited dynamic threshold I limit_dynamic is reduced to 0.5 I Lmax ~0.8 I Lmax ; When T j > T2, it is determined that the interleaved parallel Boost converter operates in the high temperature range, and the upper limit value of the per-wave limited dynamic threshold I limit_dynamic is reduced to a safety value close to the rated current.

[0014] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the PWM duty cycle of the next carrier period is calculated through voltage-current closed-loop operation, which specifically includes: Obtain the reference voltage V ref , and subtract the reference voltage V ref from the output voltage V out to obtain the voltage error V error ; Input the voltage error V error to the voltage outer loop controller for processing to obtain the reference signal I ref of the current inner loop; Subtract the inductance peak current I ref from the reference signal I peak of the current inner loop to obtain the current error I error ; The current error I error The input is processed by the inner current loop controller to generate a drive signal; The drive signal is input to the PWM modulator and compared with the triangular carrier wave to obtain the PWM duty cycle for the next carrier cycle.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0033] Example 1 This application provides an adaptive wave-by-wave current limiting protection method for interleaved parallel Boost converters, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the interleaved parallel Boost converter in this embodiment consists of two Boost converter branches, which are staggered by 180°. Each branch comprises an inductor, a switching transistor, and a diode, and the voltage gain is achieved by adjusting the duty cycle of the switching transistor. Figure 2-3As shown, the adaptive wave-by-wave current limiting protection method includes the following steps: S1, construct the inductor saturation curve and duty cycle calculation model; S2, Input voltage V of the interleaved parallel Boost converter is acquired based on the carrier period to determine its operating state. in Output voltage V out Peak current I of each phase inductor peak and operating temperature T j ; S3, based on the input voltage V in Output voltage V out and the peak current I of each phase inductor peak The PWM duty cycle for the next carrier cycle is calculated through voltage-current closed-loop calculation. The PWM duty cycle is then input into the inductor saturation curve and duty cycle calculation model to predict the inductor current change rate for the next carrier cycle. and the instantaneous maximum value of inductor current I max ; S4, the instantaneous maximum value of the inductor current I max With wave-by-wave current limiting initial threshold I in Compare; If I max >I in Then, the inductor current change rate evaluation step is performed, and the wave-by-wave current limiting dynamic threshold I is set. limit_dynamic Make dynamic adjustments; Conversely, if I max ≤I in If so, no adjustment is needed; S5, after entering the next carrier cycle, the peak current I of each phase inductor will be... peak With the adjusted wave-by-wave current limiting dynamic threshold I limit_dynamic Compare; If I peak ≥I limit_dynamic If the condition is met, a protection signal is generated to block the drive pulse of that phase in the current switching cycle, thus protecting the interleaved parallel Boost converter; otherwise, the process returns to step S2.

[0034] In this embodiment, the inductor acts as an energy storage device in the Boost converter branch. The inductor charges when the switch is turned on, and the inductor current slope satisfies... To avoid the adjusted wave-by-wave current limiting dynamic threshold exceeding the inductor saturation current, the maximum duty cycle of the switching transistor needs to be evaluated in conjunction with the inductor saturation curve. Since the inductance L decreases with increasing current and the inductor slope changes non-linearly, this embodiment establishes an inductor saturation curve and duty cycle calculation model to calculate the inductor current change rate for the next carrier cycle. and the instantaneous maximum value of inductor current I max The estimate.

[0035] In this embodiment, the inductor saturation curve and duty cycle calculation model are stored in tables within the system. In actual use, the inductor current change rate for the next carrier cycle is predicted using a lookup table method based on the PWM duty cycle. and the instantaneous maximum value of inductor current I max .

[0036] In this embodiment, as Figure 5 As shown, the inductor current change rate evaluation steps are performed on the wave-by-wave current limiting dynamic threshold I. limit_dynamic Dynamic adjustment specifically includes: adjusting the rate of change of inductor current. Compared with a preset slope threshold, the preset slope threshold includes a first slope threshold and a second slope threshold. If the rate of change of inductor current If the slope exceeds the first threshold, it is determined that the load has increased sharply, and the wave-by-wave current limiting dynamic threshold I is applied. limit_dynamic Adjustments were made to the wave-by-wave current limiting dynamic threshold I. limit_dynamic The calculation formula is: , in, k coff This is the adjustment coefficient.

[0037] If the rate of change of inductor current If the slope exceeds the second threshold, a fault condition is determined, and the wave-by-wave current limiting dynamic threshold I is adjusted. limit_dynamic Reduced to the initial threshold I for wave-by-wave current limiting in This triggers shutdown protection. In the event of a fault, this embodiment can identify and immediately restore the current to the initial threshold I of wave-by-wave current limiting. in It performs rapid current limiting, effectively protecting switching transistors and diode power devices from damage and preventing the fault from escalating.

[0038] In this embodiment, the dynamic threshold I for wave-by-wave current limiting is... limit_dynamic When making adjustments, the wave-by-wave current limiting dynamic threshold I limit_dynamic Threshold adjustment range and instantaneous maximum value of inductor current I max and the rate of change of inductor current Proportional to allow parallel Boost converters to provide short-term overload capability.

[0039] In this embodiment, the maximum inductor saturation current will also be considered. I Lmax Or the repetitive peak current of the IGBT collector I CRM Dynamic threshold I for wave-by-wave current limiting limit_dynamic The adjustment is segmented to further ensure a safe overshoot of the current. This is based on the maximum inductor saturation current.I Lmax For further illustration, due to the non - linear transformation of the inductor, the larger the current, the smaller the inductance value, and the steeper the inductance curve. When the per - cycle current - limit dynamic threshold I limit_dynamic is close to 0.5 times the maximum inductor saturation current, if the adjustment coefficient k coff has an increment step of 0.5, when the per - cycle current - limit dynamic threshold I limit_dynamic is close to 0.7 times the maximum saturated inductor current, if the adjustment coefficient k coff has an increment step of 0.3.

[0040] In this embodiment, for the application scenarios where the high - voltage - side voltage is between 900V and 2000V, it is more appropriate to select an IGBT module with a higher withstand voltage as the switching device. The damage mechanisms of IGBTs are diverse and usually occur within microseconds or milliseconds. Only relying on the rated current is not sufficient to ensure safety.

[0041] When the load suddenly increases, the conduction duty cycle of the switching device (IGBT) in the Boost converter branch is at a relatively large proportion. As Figure 3 shown, when the IGBT is turned on, the current path is from the positive pole of the power supply, flowing through the inductor, then through the IGBT, and finally back to the negative pole of the power supply. The current shows an upward curve. At the same time, the free - wheeling diode undergoes reverse recovery, superimposing a reverse - recovery current on the IGBT, instantaneously increasing the conduction current of the IGBT. This process places relatively strict requirements on the IGBT current stress. It is necessary to control the conduction current within the IGBT collector repetitive peak current I CRM . During the IGBT turn - off process, the current path is from the positive pole of the power supply, flowing through the inductor, then through the free - wheeling diode, and finally to the load. The current at the instant of IGBT turn - off is the maximum value of the current during the turn - off stage, and the current shows a downward curve during this process. Therefore, during the turn - on and turn - off processes, the per - cycle current - limit dynamic threshold setting should be lower than the IGBT collector repetitive peak current I CRM . The junction - temperature - current - limit threshold mapping relationship includes: Compare the maximum inductor saturation current and the IGBT collector repetitive peak current I CRM , and based on the working temperature T j judge the working - environment temperature of the interleaved parallel Boost converter, and set the upper - limit value of the per - cycle current - limit dynamic threshold I limit_dynamic ; among which, when T j < T1 (such as T j < 100 ° °C), it is determined that the interleaved parallel Boost converter is operating in the low - temperature region. If I Lmax> ICRM , the upper limit value of the per-wave limited dynamic threshold I limit_dynamic is set to the IGBT collector repetitive peak current I CRM ; If I Lmax≤ I CRM , the upper limit value of the per-wave limited dynamic threshold I limit_dynamic is set to the maximum inductor saturation current I Lmax ; When T1 < T j < T2 (such as 100 ° °C < T j < 125 ° °C), it is determined that the interleaved parallel Boost converter operates in the medium temperature range. If I Lmax> I CRM , the upper limit value of the per-wave limited dynamic threshold I limit_dynamic is reduced to 0.5 I CRM ~0.8 I [[ID=4C]] CRM ; If I [[ID=CC]] Lmax≤ I ]> CRM , the upper limit value of the per-wave limited dynamic threshold I limit_dynamic is reduced to 0.5 I Lmax ~0.8 " I Lmax ; When T j > T2 (such as T j > 125 ° °C), it is determined that the interleaved parallel Boost converter operates in the high temperature range. Then, the upper limit value of the per-wave limited dynamic threshold I limit_dynamic is reduced to a safety value close to the rated current.

[0042] In the present invention, when adjusting the per-wave limited dynamic threshold, it is combined with temperature monitoring. When T j increases, based on the junction temperature - current limiting threshold mapping relationship, the upper limit value of the per-wave limited dynamic threshold can be actively reduced, realizing the change from passive protection to active prevention.

[0043] In this embodiment, when T j is close to the absolute maximum value T j_max , the shutdown protection is triggered to protect the interleaved parallel Boost converter.

[0044] In this embodiment, as Figure 4 As shown, the PWM duty cycle for the next carrier cycle is calculated through voltage and current closed-loop calculation, specifically including: Obtain the reference voltage V ref , the reference voltage V ref With output voltage V out The voltage error V is obtained by subtraction. error ; Voltage error V error The input is processed by the voltage outer loop controller to obtain the reference signal I for the current inner loop. ref ; The reference signal I of the inner current loop ref With the peak inductor current I peak The difference is used to obtain the current error I. error ; Current error I error The input is processed by the inner current loop controller to generate a drive signal; The drive signal is input to the PWM modulator and compared with the triangular carrier wave to obtain the PWM duty cycle for the next carrier cycle.

[0045] The adaptive wave-by-wave current limiting protection method for interleaved parallel Boost converters in this embodiment can dynamically adjust the wave-by-wave current limiting dynamic threshold I when the load changes stepwise. limit_dynamic This threshold ensures that the current stress, voltage stress, and thermal stress of magnetic devices and power devices are always within their safe operating range, achieving an optimal balance between protection coverage and system stability. It also allows for a safe overshoot of the current to meet dynamic response requirements, avoiding false protection caused by normal dynamic response.
