[0025] DCDC power converters are generally composed of control circuits, output inductors, voltage regulator diodes, and output voltage regulator capacitors. DCDC switching power converters generally include boost, buck, boost / buck, and reverse polarity circuits. However, traditional power DCDC power converters have the disadvantages of low integration, complex peripheral circuits, poor stability, small input / output range, and large output voltage ripple. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the functional characteristics of DCDC power based on boost-type DCDC converter circuits.

[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a DCDC power converter, including: a main control board, wherein the main control board is provided with:

[0027] The following are connected in sequence: an input EMC / EMI circuit, a soft-start circuit, a BOOST inductor circuit, a BOOST power circuit, a BOOST filter circuit, an LLC power circuit, an LLC resonant capacitor / LLC resonant inductor circuit, an LLC power transformer, a half-wave rectifier filter circuit, and an output circuit, forming a U-shaped loop, so that the input EMC / EMI circuit and the output circuit are arranged on the same side;

[0028] It also includes an MCU control circuit, which is arranged in the middle of the U-shaped loop.

[0029] Specifically, the interface of the input EMC / EMI circuit and the interface of the output circuit can be placed on the same side of the whole machine, which is convenient for users to connect the wires. At the same time, it can save the space of the whole machine, make the layout compact, improve the integration of the DCDC power converter, simplify the peripheral circuit and improve the stability.

[0030] like Figure 2-3 As shown, exemplarily, it also includes a liquid-cooled radiator and a circuit board housing 1, and the circuit board housing 1 and the first side of the liquid-cooled radiator housing 2 form a receiving cavity, and the main control board is arranged in the receiving cavity.

[0031] Specifically, the liquid cooling radiator and the circuit board housing 1 directly form a receiving cavity, that is, one side of the liquid cooling radiator housing 2 is also one side of the circuit board housing 1, so that the liquid cooling radiator can directly dissipate heat for the circuit in the receiving cavity, greatly improving the heat dissipation effect of the liquid cooling radiator, reducing the overall volume of the converter, and improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the circuit in the receiving cavity. This makes the converter compact in layout and good in heat dissipation; the housing dissipates heat through water cooling, has no heat dissipation holes, and has good electromagnetic compatibility.

[0032] In addition, it should be noted that aluminum alloy material can be used as the liquid cooling radiator housing 2 to further improve the heat dissipation effect of the radiator.

[0033] As an optional embodiment, the first side end of the liquid-cooled radiator housing 2 corresponding to the input EMC / EMI circuit and the output circuit is provided with an input power interface 12 connected to the input EMC / EMI circuit, a communication interface 14 connected to the MCU control circuit, and an output power interface 13 connected to the output circuit.

[0034] As an optional embodiment, the liquid-cooled radiator includes a heat dissipation water channel 21, a coolant input channel 22 and a coolant output channel 23. The heat dissipation water channel 21 is arranged in the heat dissipation cavity formed by the liquid-cooled radiator shell 2, and the coolant input channel 22 and the coolant output channel 23 pass through the liquid-cooled radiator shell 2 and are respectively connected to both ends of the heat dissipation water channel 21.

[0035] Specifically, the coolant enters the heat dissipation channel 21 through the coolant input channel 22 , dissipates heat and cools the circuit in the accommodating cavity in the heat dissipation channel 21 , and then flows out of the heat dissipation cavity through the coolant output channel 23 .

[0036] As an optional implementation, the cooling liquid input channel 22 and the cooling liquid output channel 23 are both arranged at the second side end of the circuit board housing 1; wherein the first side end is arranged opposite to the second side end.

[0037] It should be understood that the first side end and the second side end can be arranged relative to each other, that is, one side end of the liquid-cooled radiator housing 2 is used for the input and output of signals, and the other side end is used for the output and input of cooling liquid. This arrangement can make the converter simple and beautiful in appearance and compact in layout, while also improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the converter and reducing the overall volume of the converter.

[0038] As an optional implementation, the heat dissipation channel 21 is formed in an M shape.

[0039] Specifically, the heat dissipation channels 21 are arranged in an M shape, so that the heat dissipation channels 21 can be evenly and neatly distributed in the heat dissipation inner cavity, so that the circuit in the accommodating cavity can be evenly and effectively cooled.

[0040] As an optional implementation, it further includes: a power board, which is arranged in the accommodating cavity, and the main control board and the power board are embedded in the accommodating cavity.

[0041] The main control board and the power board are embedded, which can save the space of the whole machine and increase the power density. In addition, the input power interface 12, the output power interface 13 and the communication interface can adopt aviation plugs, which have good sealing and convenient wiring.

[0042] As an optional implementation, the power board is provided with a notch.

[0043] As an optional implementation, it further includes a high-power heating device, and the high-power heating device is directly installed on the first side surface through the notch.

[0044] Specifically, a gap is opened on the power board, and power devices with large heat generation can be directly mounted on the heat sink bottom plate, which has a compact layout and good heat dissipation.

[0045] As an optional implementation, the LLC power circuit includes a symmetrical half-bridge LLC circuit.

[0046] The input variable DC voltage of 400V~700V can be stabilized to 720V, providing a relatively stable DC power supply for the subsequent LLC variable circuit. The stable DC voltage can make the gain control of the subsequent LLC circuit within a reasonable range during frequency modulation control. In addition, the output voltage can be set to 90~130V, and the maximum output current can reach 68A. By using half-wave rectification current, the rectification power devices are reduced by half, and the conduction loss is reduced by half, which can reduce power semiconductor devices and improve overall efficiency.
