[0003] A low-voltage DC power supply performs DC / DC conversion to a DC output. This solution solves the power supply problem for fixed equipment. When the output voltage of a boost DC power supply falls below the input voltage, the boost circuit fails, causing the input power to short-circuit the load. This makes short-circuit protection in high-current (high-power) systems very difficult to control. Utility Model Content

[0009] An inductor L1 and a forward diode D3 are connected in series between the VINPOU interface and the CN13 interface, respectively. Several capacitors COUT are connected in series between the CN13 interface and the ground. The output end of the inductor L1 is connected to the source of the MOS transistor Q1. A resistor R51 is connected in series between the drain of the MOS transistor Q1 and the ground.

[0011] Furthermore, a backup boost circuit is connected in series between the VINPOU interface and the capacitor COUT. The backup boost circuit includes an inductor L2, a MOS transistor Q3, a MOS transistor Q4 and a diode D11. The circuit connection structure of the inductor L2, the MOS transistor Q3, the MOS transistor Q4, and the diode D5 is exactly the same as the connection structure of the inductor L1, the MOS transistor Q1, the MOS transistor Q2 and the diode D3.

[0026] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0027] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this invention pertains. The terms used herein in the specification of this invention are intended only to describe specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0028] The utility model provides a DC voltage regulating circuit with high stable output, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes a power module that outputs direct current and a load module that receives high-voltage direct current. A voltage regulating unit is provided between the load module and the power module for converting low-voltage direct current into stable high-voltage direct current.

[0029] like Figure 2 As shown, the power module includes a VINPOU interface for outputting low-voltage direct current. The voltage regulation unit includes a voltage regulation submodule, which includes a boost circuit for increasing the voltage and a control circuit for controlling the operation of the boost circuit.

[0030] The boost circuit includes a CN13 interface connected to the load module. An inductor L1 and a forward diode D3 are connected in series between the VINPOU interface and the CN13 interface in sequence. The diode D3 is connected in parallel with a diode D4 in the same direction. Several capacitors COUT are connected in series between the CN13 interface and the ground. The capacitors COUT are used to store electrical energy and filter out clutter.

[0031] The output end of inductor L1 is connected to the source of MOS transistor Q1. Resistor R51 is connected in series between the drain of MOS transistor Q1 and the ground. The gate of MOS transistor Q1 is connected to port 6 of connector CN8. Port 6 of CN8 communicates data with the control circuit to control whether MOS transistor Q1 is turned on.

[0032] To improve the performance of the boost circuit, MOS transistor Q1 is connected in parallel to MOS transistor Q2, and the source, gate, and drain of the two MOS transistors are interconnected. The actions of MOS transistor Q1 and MOS transistor Q2 are synchronized. When one of the MOS transistors is damaged, the normal operation of the boost circuit is not affected.

[0033] The boost circuit's power supply process is as follows: MOS transistor Q1 is turned on, connecting the VINPOU interface to ground through inductor L1. Inductor L1 stores charge, while capacitor COUT provides high-voltage power to CN13. MOS transistor Q1 is turned off, connecting the VINPOU interface to CN13 through inductor L1. The voltages of the INPOU port and inductor L1 are added together, causing CN13 to provide high-voltage power. Capacitor COUT charges and filters out noise, allowing the boost circuit to continuously output high-voltage power.

[0034] To improve the stability of the boost circuit's output voltage, a backup boost circuit is connected in series between the VINPOU interface and capacitor COUT. The backup boost circuit includes inductor L2, MOS transistors Q3, MOS transistors Q4, diodes D5, and diodes D6. The circuit connection structure of inductor L2, MOS transistors Q3, MOS transistors Q4, diodes D5, and diodes D6 is exactly the same as that of inductor L1, MOS transistors Q1, MOS transistors Q2, diodes D3, and diodes D4. The gates of MOS transistors Q3 and MOS transistors Q4 are both connected to port 1 of connector CN8. Port 1 of connector CN8 communicates data with the control circuit and can control whether MOS transistors Q3 and Q4 are conductive.

[0035] During power supply, MOS transistors Q1 and Q3 conduct alternately, ensuring that the CN13 interface consistently outputs a cumulative high voltage, improving output voltage stability. Furthermore, as long as at least one MOS transistor in the boost circuit is functioning properly, high voltage can be output, improving boost circuit performance.

[0036] like Figure 3 As shown, the control circuit includes control chip U2, model LTC3862-2. This chip has two sets of interleaved signal outputs, which can achieve high-efficiency conversion of the boost circuit. Connector CN8 communicates with control chip U2 through connector SN8, and connector CN8 and connector SN8 are plug-in connected.

[0037] Resistor R8 is connected in series between GATB1 of control chip U2 and port 2 of connector SN8, and resistor R15 is connected in series between GATB2 of control chip U2 and port 1 of connector SN8. GATB1 and GATB2 output interleaved signals to control the alternating operation of MOS transistors Q1 and Q3.

[0038] like Figure 4 As shown, the control chip U2 includes an FB port, which is electrically connected to an input feedback circuit for monitoring the output voltage of the power module. When the voltage of the power module decreases, the interleaved signals of the GATB1 port and the GATB2 port are adjusted to reduce the output voltage of the boost circuit.

[0039] The input feedback circuit includes an optocoupler EL, a diode D1 connected in series between the FB port and the pull-up power supply VBIAS, the input end of the diode D1 is connected to the 4th port of the optocoupler, the 3rd port of the optocoupler EL is connected to the ground, a diode D2 is connected in series between the 2nd port of the optocoupler EL and the ground, and a resistor R6 is connected in series between the 1st port of the optocoupler EL and the pull-up power supply VBIAS.

[0040] Resistors R1, R2, and R3 are connected in series between the output terminal of the power module and the ground in sequence. Resistors R1 and R2 are connected in parallel with capacitor C1. Capacitor C1 is connected in series with resistor R5. The control terminal of diode D2 is connected between resistors R1 and R2. Capacitor C2 is connected in series between the control terminal of diode D2 and port 2 of optocoupler EL. Resistor R4 is connected in series between the control terminal of diode D2 and the pull-up power supply VBIAS.

[0041] The control process is as follows: when the output voltage of the power module is normal, the diode D6 and the optocoupler EL are both off, and the voltage regulating submodule outputs normal power; when the output voltage of the power module decreases, the diode D6 and the optocoupler EL are turned on, the FB port voltage of the voltage regulating submodule and the standby voltage regulating submodule is increased, and the output voltage is reduced.

[0042] like Figure 5 As shown, the voltage-regulating unit includes several backup submodules, each with a circuit structure identical to that of the voltage-regulating submodule. A post-stage controller is located between the load module and the voltage-regulating unit. When the load module's receiving voltage drops, the post-stage controller integrates the backup submodules into the circuit and adjusts the output power of the submodules within the circuit to maintain the output voltage of the voltage-regulating unit.

[0043] The FB ports of the control chip of the backup voltage module are connected to the output end of the input feedback circuit so that the subsequent controller can synchronously adjust the output voltages of the voltage regulating submodule and the backup submodule to quickly match the corresponding operating power.

[0044] One embodiment of the present application is: when a single voltage regulating sub-module is connected to the circuit, the voltage regulating sub-module converts 50V into 102V, and the operating power is 2kw; when the input feedback circuit monitors that the power supply voltage of the power module is reduced, the output voltage of the voltage regulating sub-module is made 50V, and the post-stage controller connects a spare sub-module to the circuit and reduces the operating power of the two voltage regulating sub-modules to 1kw, and the output voltage of the voltage regulating sub-module is restored to 100V.

[0045] Through the above method, when the power supply voltage of the voltage regulating sub-module is unstable, the conversion efficiency can be improved by adjusting the number and operating power of the connected voltage regulating sub-modules, balancing the peak current of each power tube (the tube that serves as the final output in the amplifier circuit is called a power tube), and improving the circuit stability and reliability.

[0046] The above embodiments of the present invention are described in detail. However, the above contents are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and should not be considered to limit the scope of implementation of the present invention. All equivalent changes and improvements made within the scope of the present invention should still fall within the scope of this patent.
