Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of lightning protection, and in particular to a lightning protection detection and protection circuit and an electric energy conversion device. Background Art

[0002] When dealing with lightning strikes, the following two devices are commonly used to suppress differential mode lightning strike voltages. One is to connect a large-capacity electrolytic capacitor (BULK capacitor) in parallel to the busbar, and the other is to connect a varistor (MOV) or a transient suppression diode (TVS) and other devices in parallel to the busbar to absorb lightning strike energy to suppress the voltage impact caused by lightning strikes. Figure 1 As shown, the AC voltage u AC , rectifier circuit 1, and power circuit 2 are connected in parallel in sequence, and control circuit 3 controls the on and off of the switch in power circuit 2. In order to suppress the lightning voltage, a transient suppression diode TVS and an electrolytic capacitor C are connected in parallel on the bus between the rectifier circuit 1 and the power circuit 2. b .

[0003] However, in some applications with high size requirements such as ultra-small adapters or module power supplies, electrolytic capacitors, varistors, transient suppression diodes, etc. are subject to large size restrictions, which often leads to excessive overshoot of the bus voltage at a higher slope during lightning strikes. At this time, the device voltage and current stress of the power tube or the subsequent power circuit are often difficult to meet the derating requirements, and there is a risk of failure. The conventional way to deal with this problem is to set up an overvoltage protection (OVP) circuit and other protection methods to shut down the power circuit after the voltage of the electrolytic capacitor exceeds the normal voltage. However, when the voltage of the electrolytic capacitor is small and the lightning voltage is high, such as above 1.2kV, the bus voltage V bus The rising slope can often reach more than 50V / us, but the overvoltage protection circuit needs to act after the voltage of the electrolytic capacitor is over-voltage, and there is a delay in the protection action time, which often makes it difficult to achieve timely protection.
