The DC power supply for the wind power pitch system needs to keep the output voltage constant when the input voltage varies within a wide range.

[0003] The existing power supplies applied to the wind power pitch system mainly use the Buck circuit topology. When the input voltage is close to the output voltage, it can only output at a low power, and it cannot output normally when the input voltage is too high.

However, it should be noted that many details listed in the specification are only for enabling the reader to have a thorough understanding of one or more aspects of the present utility model, and these aspects of the present utility model can be implemented even without these specific details.

[0017] As Figure 1-2 shown, a wide-range input DC power supply includes MOS transistor S1, MOS transistor S2, MOS transistor S3, inductor L1, inductor L2, capacitor C1, capacitor C2, diode D1, power supply chip U1, power supply chip U2, resistor R1, resistor R2, resistor R3, and resistor R4. In this embodiment, N-channel MOS transistors are preferentially used for all MOS transistors; Schottky diodes are preferentially used for all diodes. Both power supply chip U1 and power supply chip U2 are existing power supply chips.

[0018] In the embodiment of the present utility model, power supply chip U1 has an input voltage sampling terminal, a PWM output terminal, and an output feedback terminal; the above-mentioned power supply chip U2 has a first PWM output terminal, a second PWM output terminal, and an output feedback terminal.

[0019] In the embodiment of the present utility model, the input voltage sampling terminal of power supply chip U1 is connected to the input voltage, and the PWM output terminal is connected to the gate of MOS transistor S1; the first PWM output terminal of power supply chip U2 is connected to the gate of MOS transistor S2, and the second PWM output terminal is connected to the gate of MOS transistor S3.

[0020] The first end of inductor L1 is connected to the input voltage V i , the second end of inductor L1 is connected to the source of MOS transistor S1, and the drain of MOS transistor S1 is grounded; the first end of diode D1 is connected to the second end of inductor L1, the second end of diode D1 is connected to the first end of capacitor C1, and the second end of capacitor C1 is grounded; the source of MOS transistor S2 is connected to the first end of capacitor C1, the drain of MOS transistor S2 is connected to the source of MOS transistor S3, and the drain of MOS transistor S3 is grounded; the first end of inductor L2 is connected to the drain of MOS transistor S2, the second end of inductor L2 is connected to the first end of capacitor C2, the first end of capacitor C2 is connected to the voltage output terminal V out , and the second end of capacitor C2 is grounded.

[0021] Resistor R1 and resistor R2 are connected in series, and the whole of them after series connection is connected between the second end of diode D1 and the ground, and the voltage dividing node of resistor R1 and resistor R2 is connected to the output feedback terminal of the power supply chip U1; resistor R3 and resistor R4 are connected in series, and the whole of them after series connection is connected between the second end of inductor L2 and the ground, and the voltage dividing node of resistor R3 and resistor R4 is connected to the output feedback terminal of the power supply chip U2.

[0022] In the embodiment of the present utility model, the operating mode of a wide-range input DC power supply is affected by the change of the input voltage and can be divided into the following two modes: (1) When the input voltage Vin is higher than twice the output voltage Vout, the circuit operates in the Buck mode. At this time, the MOS transistor S1 is in the off state throughout a period T. The duty cycle (D = Ton / T) of the MOS transistors S2 and S3 changes according to the input voltage to maintain the output voltage of the DC power supply unchanged. (2) When the input voltage is less than or equal to twice the output voltage Vout, the circuit operates in the Boost-Buck mode. At this time, the duty cycle of the MOS transistor S1 changes according to the input voltage, and the duty cycles of the MOS transistors S2 and S3 change according to the voltage across the capacitor C1.

[0023] In the working mode (1), within a period T, the MOS transistors S2 and S3 conduct alternately (controlled by the first PWM output terminal HV and the second PWM output terminal LV of the power supply chip U2): When the MOS transistor S2 conducts and the MOS transistor S3 is off, the input voltage charges the inductors L1 and L2. During this period, the inductors L2 and L1 store energy, and the capacitor C1 releases energy; When the MOS transistor S2 is off and the MOS transistor S3 conducts, at this time, the inductor L2 charges the C2 through the conducting channel of the MOS transistor S3, and at the same time, L1 charges the capacitor C1 through the diode D1. The resistors R3 and R4 determine the output voltage Vout. The power supply chip U2 determines the conduction duty cycles of the MOS transistors Q2 and Q2 according to the sampled and feedback voltage, so as to keep the output voltage stable.

[0024] In the working mode (2), the MOS transistor S1 conducts and turns off alternately within a period T: When the MOS transistor S1 is on, the input voltage charges the inductor L1; When the MOS transistor S1 is off, the inductor L1 charges the capacitor C1 through the diode D1. The power supply chip U1 determines the conduction duty cycle of the MOS transistor Q1 according to the sampled and feedback voltage, so as to keep the voltage on the capacitor C1 stable. The working states of the MOS transistors S2 and S3 are the same as those in the working mode (1). The power supply chip U2 determines the conduction duty cycles of the MOS transistors Q2 and Q2 according to the sampled and feedback, so as to keep the output voltage stable.

[0025] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the principle of the present utility model, several improvements and modifications can be made, and these improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present utility model.
