Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of power supply control, and in particular to a low-peak-voltage flyback power supply circuit for switching power supplies. Background Technology

[0002] Flyback switching power supplies, as a common isolated switching power supply topology, are widely used in various electronic devices due to their simple structure, low cost, and ability to provide electrical isolation. During the operation of a flyback power supply, when the main switch is turned off, the energy stored in the transformer leakage inductance cannot be fully transferred to the secondary side. This energy, along with the parasitic capacitance of the switch, forms an LC oscillation circuit, generating high-frequency oscillations and resulting in significant voltage spikes across the switch. These voltage spikes not only increase the voltage stress on the switch, affecting system reliability, but also generate severe electromagnetic interference, adversely affecting the overall performance of the power supply system. In existing technologies, the voltage spike problem in flyback power supplies is mainly related to the energy release from the transformer leakage inductance and magnetizing inductance, the parasitic parameters of the switch, and the design of the absorption circuit. Specifically, the transformer leakage inductance is the most significant factor in generating voltage spikes. When the switch is turned off, the energy stored in the leakage inductance cannot be transferred to the secondary side and can only be released through the parasitic capacitance of the switch, forming LC oscillations and directly generating high-frequency, high-voltage spikes. In addition, the junction capacitance and leakage inductance of the switching transistor together determine the oscillation frequency and peak amplitude, while the turn-off speed of the switching transistor also affects the rate of change of current and voltage, and thus affects the amplitude of the peak voltage.

[0003] Currently, the industry typically uses RC snubber circuits, RCD snubber circuits, or active clamping circuits to suppress voltage spikes in flyback power supplies. However, these traditional methods have significant limitations: while RC and RCD snubber circuits are simple in structure, they suffer from high energy loss, reducing the overall efficiency of the power supply; active clamping circuits, although able to recover some leakage inductance energy and improve efficiency, are complex to control and costly. More importantly, these methods address the already generated voltage spikes from the primary side, representing a "post-event treatment" approach, and fail to fundamentally solve the mechanism of voltage spike generation. In recent years, some solutions have attempted to disperse voltage stress by cascading secondary coils in series, which has reduced peak voltage levels under steady-state operation to some extent. However, the fixed-parameter buffer network and voltage deviation-based proportional-integral (PI) equalization control used in these solutions have significant drawbacks under transient conditions such as drastic load changes and short-circuit recovery: the PI controller can only adjust after the voltage deviation occurs, resulting in a delayed response to peak voltage spikes on the microsecond timescale, failing to effectively suppress them; the fixed RC buffer network cannot adapt to the dynamic changes in high-frequency oscillation components and energy levels under transient conditions, leading to a sharp increase in peak voltage during short-circuit recovery or startup; furthermore, existing solutions only detect voltage amplitude, not the rate of voltage change, making it impossible to predict load change trends and take preventative measures in advance. In addition, with the widespread application of third-generation wide-bandgap semiconductor power devices such as gallium nitride (GaN), while the increased switching speed helps improve efficiency, it also exacerbates the rate of voltage and current changes, making peak voltage problems under transient conditions more prominent, and traditional fixed-parameter suppression methods are insufficient.

[0004] Therefore, how to effectively suppress voltage spikes under transient conditions and improve the dynamic response performance of the system while maintaining the advantages of simple structure and low cost of flyback power supplies, and at the same time take into account low loss operation under steady state, has become an urgent technical problem to be solved.

The synergistic effect of the three components enables the circuit to maintain the original steady-state high efficiency while significantly reducing the peak voltage amplitude under severe transient conditions such as load jumps and short-circuit recovery, effectively improving the dynamic response performance and reliability of the system.

[0019] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] The purpose of this invention is to provide a low-peak-voltage flyback power supply circuit for switching power supplies. Its core innovation lies in the synergistic cooperation between the secondary coil hierarchical series structure and the active dynamic buffer network, combined with a specially designed transient feedforward predictive control and turn-off speed adaptive adjustment algorithm, which fundamentally solves the problem of peak voltage runaway of flyback power supplies under transient conditions.

[0021] To make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0022] Example 1: In terms of hardware topology, this invention adds an active dynamic buffer network and a transient feedforward detection unit to the existing secondary coil hierarchical series architecture. Taking a 180W water purifier power supply project from a home appliance company as an example, the power supply has an input voltage range of 176V-264V AC and an output specification of 36V / 5A DC. The input filter capacitor is a 100μF / 450V electrolytic capacitor used to smooth the input voltage and suppress high-frequency noise. The transformer uses PQ32 magnetic core material, with 56 turns in the primary coil and 4 turns in each of the three secondary coils, employing a sandwich winding method to optimize the coupling coefficient and reduce leakage inductance. The main switching transistor is a 650V gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor, whose gate is connected to the pulse width modulation output of the digital signal processor via a drive circuit. The active clamping circuit consists of a clamping capacitor and a clamping switch. The clamping capacitor is a 22nF / 400V thin film capacitor, and the clamping switch is also a 650V gallium nitride device, forming a complementary working mode with the main switch.

[0023] The three coils on the secondary side are connected in series. One end of the first secondary coil is grounded, and one end of the last secondary coil is connected to the positive terminal of the output filter capacitor. Each secondary coil is equipped with a corresponding rectifier diode, preferably a fast recovery diode, whose withstand voltage can be reduced from 400V in the traditional solution to 150V, significantly reducing device cost and size. A fixed buffer module consisting of a fixed buffer capacitor and a fixed buffer resistor is connected in parallel across each rectifier diode to absorb local voltage spikes. Based on this, the present invention adds an active dynamic buffer network. Each active dynamic buffer network consists of an auxiliary switch, a dynamic adjustment resistor, and a DC blocking capacitor connected in series, and the entire network is connected in parallel with the corresponding fixed buffer module across the rectifier diode. The auxiliary switch also uses a gallium nitride device, and its gate receives the pulse width modulation control signal from the digital signal processor. The output filter capacitor is a 470μF / 25V electrolytic capacitor to provide a stable DC voltage to the load.

[0024] The transient feedforward detection unit is connected across the output filter capacitor. This unit, implemented using a differentiating circuit or a digital differential, is used to extract the rate of change signal of the output voltage in real time. The drive intensity adjustment unit is connected to the gate of the main switch transistor. This unit includes a variable pull-down resistor network connected to the gate of the main switch transistor, and its equivalent resistance value is controlled by the drive adjustment signal output by the digital signal processor.

[0025] The control unit is the core intelligent hub of the entire circuit, employing a digital signal processor based on the ARM Cortex-M4 core. Its built-in high-resolution timer generates precise pulse width modulation (PWM) control signals. The control unit integrates voltage and current detection modules. The voltage detection module acquires the voltage values ​​of each secondary coil and the total output voltage in real time through a voltage divider resistor network and an analog-to-digital converter channel. The current detection module uses a Hall effect current sensor or a current sensing resistor to monitor the current value of the primary coil in real time. All sensor data is sent to the PWM processor for processing at a sampling frequency of 100kHz. Based on the detected voltage and current values, as well as the rate of change signal output by the transient feedforward detection unit, the PWM control processor outputs PWM control signals to the main switch, the clamping switch of the active clamping circuit, and the auxiliary switches of the active dynamic buffer network, and also outputs drive adjustment signals to the drive intensity adjustment unit.

[0026] Regarding control parameters, the proportional gain coefficient is set to 0.05, the integral gain coefficient to 0.1, and both are tuned using the Ziegler-Nichols method. The dimension conversion coefficient is set to 0.1, the damping adjustment coefficient to 0.5, the transient decay time constant to 300 μs, and the drive adjustment sensitivity coefficient to 0.2. The preset threshold for transient detection is set to 0.5 V / ms. The specific values ​​of the above parameters can be adjusted appropriately according to the actual circuit characteristics and application requirements.

[0027] In the specific implementation of the control method, this invention adopts a hierarchical control strategy, including voltage equalization control in steady-state operation mode and feedforward predictive control in transient mode. The control process begins in the system initialization phase, where the digital signal processor reads system parameters, including transformer leakage inductance, switch output capacitance, parasitic capacitance, rated output voltage, and rated peak primary current, and initializes the controller parameters. Subsequently, a real-time control loop is entered, with each control cycle lasting 10 μs.

[0028] In steady-state operation mode, the control unit shuts down all auxiliary switches of the active dynamic buffer network, and the active dynamic buffer network does not engage; only the fixed buffer module maintains the basic spike absorption function. The digital signal processor performs voltage equalization control, the specific process of which is as follows: first, the average value of each secondary coil voltage is calculated; then, the deviation of each coil voltage from the average value is calculated, the maximum deviation value is determined, and finally, the duty cycle adjustment is calculated through the PI controller. ; in, This is the proportional gain coefficient. For the maximum voltage deviation, The integral gain coefficient is added to the main duty cycle signal to achieve closed-loop control that balances the voltages of the three secondary coils.

[0029] During the transient detection phase, the transient feedforward detection unit calculates the output voltage change rate in real time. ,when When the preset threshold is exceeded, the system is determined to have entered transient mode. At this time, the digital signal processor further determines... The sign of the load mutation determines the direction: when When <0, it is determined to be a loading transient. When the value is greater than 0, it is determined to be a load reduction transient.

[0030] Upon entering transient mode, the digital signal processor first calculates the prediction compensation coefficients. Based on the real-time acquired output voltage change rate, according to the formula: ; in, The dimension conversion coefficient is determined experimentally. This is the rated output voltage.

[0031] Dynamic buffer control is then executed. The digital signal processor calculates the pulse width modulation duty cycle of each auxiliary switch based on the prediction compensation coefficient. The calculation formula is as follows: ; in, Based on duty cycle, This is the damping adjustment coefficient. This is the elapsed time since the transient trigger moment. This is the transient decay time constant. The physical meaning of this formula is: at the initial moment of transient triggering, i.e., t=0, =1, the buffer strength reaches its maximum; as the transient process gradually decays, i.e., t increases... The buffer strength decreases exponentially, achieving real-time matching between the buffer absorption strength and the severity of the transient. The digital signal processor outputs the calculated pulse width modulation duty cycle to the gate drive circuits of each auxiliary switch.

[0032] Simultaneously, the digital signal processor performs turn-off speed adjustment. The equivalent gate pull-down resistance of the main switch is calculated based on the prediction compensation coefficient, using the following formula: ; in, This is the gate pull-down resistor in steady state. To drive the adjustment of the sensitivity coefficient, The peak primary current detected in the current switching cycle. The digital signal processor adjusts the gate equivalent pull-down resistance to the rated peak primary current via the drive strength adjustment unit. The physical meaning of this formula is that when a strong transient is predicted and the primary current is large, Increasing the gate pull-down resistance is equivalent to increasing the gate pull-down resistance and slowing down the discharge rate, thus appropriately slowing down the turn-off speed of the main switch and suppressing extreme voltage spikes caused by the ultrafast turn-off of gallium nitride devices and the resonance of transformer leakage inductance; conversely, under steady-state or weak transient conditions, Approaching Maintain normal rapid switching to achieve high efficiency.

[0033] During the transient recovery judgment phase, the digital signal processor continuously monitors the rate of change of the output voltage. When the voltage drops below the preset threshold and the output voltage stabilizes, the control unit shuts down all auxiliary switches, and the system switches back to steady-state operation mode.

[0034] In practical implementation, multiple protection mechanisms need to be considered. Overcurrent protection is achieved by monitoring the primary current; when the current exceeds a set threshold, the main switch is immediately shut down. Overvoltage protection is achieved by monitoring the voltage of each secondary coil; when the voltage of any coil rises abnormally, the control strategy is automatically adjusted. Temperature protection monitors the temperature of critical components using built-in temperature sensors to prevent overheating damage.

[0035] The software implementation of this invention is developed using embedded C language, and the control algorithm is executed at 10μs intervals. The program flow includes system initialization, data acquisition and state estimation, steady-state voltage equalization control, transient detection and mode judgment, predictive compensation coefficient calculation, dynamic buffer duty cycle calculation, turn-off speed adjustment calculation, pulse width modulation signal generation, and protection and fault handling steps. All control parameters are stored in non-volatile memory, supporting online debugging and parameter tuning.

[0036] Through the above specific implementation methods, this invention effectively suppresses voltage spikes in flyback power supplies under transient operating conditions. Experimental results show that under full load conditions, the maximum voltage stress on the primary side main switch is 619V, and the maximum voltage stress on the secondary side is 176.2V, both meeting the requirement of a margin of more than 10% of the rated withstand voltage of power devices. The system efficiency averages 92.708% under 180V AC input, 92.743% under 230V AC input, and 93.042% under 264V AC input. The output voltage ripple is less than 222.4mV under 176V, 220V, and 264V AC input conditions, meeting the 1% ripple noise requirement of the output voltage. Standby power consumption is as low as 0.16W under 230V AC input, meeting the requirement of 0.21W. The startup time is 45.557ms under 176V AC input no-load conditions and 42.807ms under full load conditions, both meeting the requirement of less than 50ms. The shutdown time is 30.544ms under full load conditions of 176V AC input, which meets the requirement of greater than 8ms. The output overcurrent protection point is between 5.8A and 6.1A, which is within the range of 1.16 to 1.22 times the rated current of 5A, meeting the requirement of 1.1 to 1.5 times the rated current.

[0037] The experimental data above fully verify the superiority of this invention in both steady-state and transient performance. Compared with existing technologies, this invention effectively solves the problem of peak voltage runaway under transient conditions while maintaining the advantages of simple structure and low cost of flyback power supplies, providing strong technical support for the promotion of flyback power supplies in high-frequency and high-efficiency application scenarios.

For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described.
