[0022] Please also see Figure 1 and Figure 2A preferred embodiment of the present invention provides a screen grid high-voltage power supply, which mainly provides stable high voltage electricity for satellite ion thrusters. The stability of the output voltage is ensured by setting a real-time acquisition and control circuit. The high-voltage power supply specifically includes a main controller IC4 and a control circuit and an acquisition conversion circuit connected to the main controller IC4. The control circuit is connected to the voltage conversion circuit. The voltage conversion circuit includes a transformer T2. The control circuit is connected to the primary side of the transformer T2. The acquisition conversion circuit is connected to the secondary side of the transformer T2. The control circuit includes a switch tube Q4 and a switch tube Q8. The switch tube Q4 and the switch tube Q8 are gallium nitride switch tubes, which are connected between the main controller IC4 and the transformer T2. The controller IC4 controls the switch tube Q4 and the switch tube Q8 to alternately conduct by receiving the output voltage transmitted by the acquisition conversion circuit, thereby boosting the input DC12V to 1.5kV output.

[0023] In this embodiment, resistors R10 and R19 are connected in series between the main controller IC4 and the switch tubes Q4 and Q8, respectively. Diodes DZ1 and DZ2 are connected in parallel at both ends of the resistors R10 and R19, respectively.

The drain of the switch Q8 is connected to the other terminal of the primary terminal of the transformer T2, the source is connected in series with a resistor R34, and then connected to ground. When the controller IC4 controls the switch Q4 to turn on, the input current flows through terminals 3 and 1 of the transformer T2, then through the switch Q4, and finally into ground. When the switch Q8 is turned on, terminals 3 and 6 of the transformer T2 are turned on.

[0025] In this embodiment, a resistor R124 and an inductor L6 are further connected in series between the transformer T2 and the power input terminal. A capacitor C20 is connected in series between the resistor R124 and the inductor L6 and then connected to the ground terminal. The input terminal is further connected in parallel with capacitors C21, C16, C22, C17, and C171. Capacitors C21, C16, C22, C17, and C171 filter the input current to ensure the stability of the input current. A full-bridge rectifier circuit is connected in parallel at both ends of the secondary side of the transformer T2. The full-bridge rectifier circuit converts the AC power output by the transformer T2 into DC power.

[0026] Specifically, the full-bridge rectifier circuit includes a diode D3 and a diode D7, a diode D4 and a diode D8 connected in series, followed by an inductor L1, a diode D1 and a diode D2 connected in series. A diode D12 and a diode D14, a diode D13 and a diode D15 are connected in series between the two ends of the secondary side of the transformer T2 and the ground terminal, respectively.

[0027] In this embodiment, one end of the secondary side of the transformer T2 is connected in series with an inductor L1, a diode D1, and a diode D2, and then connected to the output end. One end of the secondary side of the transformer T2 is connected in series with a resistor R16 and then connected to the ground end. Capacitors C10, C13, and a capacitor C14 are also connected in parallel between the two ends of the secondary side of the transformer T2, respectively. The LC filter circuit composed of the inductor and the capacitor filters the current output by the full-bridge rectifier circuit and outputs stable high-voltage direct current for use by the ion thruster.

[0028] In this embodiment, the acquisition and conversion circuit includes amplifier IC7 and amplifier IC12. Ports 6 and 7 of amplifier IC7 are respectively connected in series with resistors R25 and R26 and then connected to both ends of resistor R16. Ports 10 and 11 of amplifier IC7 are respectively connected in series with resistors R40 and R41 and then connected to collector IC9.

[0029] In this embodiment, port 6 of amplifier IC12 is connected in series with resistors R53, R48, R46, R42, R37, R36, and R31, and then connected to one end of the secondary side of transformer T2. A series circuit consisting of resistors R48, R46, R42, R37, R36, and R31 is further connected in parallel with a series circuit consisting of resistor R32 and capacitor C44. The series circuit of resistors R53 and R48 is further connected to ground via a series resistor R58. Diodes DR4 and D7 are further connected in parallel with both ends of resistor R58.

[0030] In this embodiment, output terminals No. 10 and No. 11 of amplifier IC12 are connected in series with resistors R54 and R52 respectively and then connected to the input terminal of collector IC14. Output terminal No. 6 of collector IC14 is connected in series with resistor R60 and then connected to port No. 1 of comparator IC16. Port No. 4 of comparator IC16 is connected to port No. 2 of main controller IC4.

[0031] In this embodiment, port 3 of the comparator IC16 is connected in series with a resistor R63 and then to the simulator IC19. The comparator IC16 uses an LMV321-N-Q1 series chip, and the simulator IC19 uses an LTC2644CMS-L12 series chip. Port 2 of the simulator IC19 inputs an external 0-100% square wave signal.

[0032] Specifically, the amplifier IC12 uses the AMC3330DWE series chip, and collects the output voltage of the secondary side of the transformer T2 through its input end. After isolation and amplification by the amplifier IC12, the proportional voltage signal is transmitted to the collector IC14. The collector IC14 uses the INA213CQDCKRQ1 series chip. The collector IC14 reduces the voltage ratio of the input proportional voltage signal and transmits it to the comparator IC16. At the same time, the simulator IC19 converts the external input 0-100% square wave signal into an analog signal and inputs it into the comparator IC16. The comparator IC16 transmits the input voltage difference to the controller IC4. The controller IC4 uses the UCC28082D series chip. The controller IC4 generates a 300kHZ pulse signal based on the input voltage difference to drive the switch tube Q4 and the switch tube Q8 to alternately turn on, thereby boosting the input DC12V to 1.5kV output through the transformer T2, and the output current is stable.
