Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of direct current (DC) voltage-stabilized power supplies, and more particularly to a DC voltage-stabilized power supply with active power factor correction. Background Art

[0002] An active power factor corrected DC power supply is an advanced electronic device that, while providing DC power, corrects the input current waveform to make it near a sine wave and in phase with the input voltage, thereby improving the power factor and reducing grid pollution. It provides stable DC power to loads. It uses active circuitry to improve the input power factor, ensuring that the input current waveform follows the input voltage waveform. Compared to passive power factor correction, it offers a better power factor improvement, but at a higher cost and potentially lower reliability. This type of power supply is primarily used to provide stable DC power to various electronic devices, such as computers and communications equipment, ensuring proper operation. It also provides precise, stable power supply in scientific research and experiments, ensuring the accuracy and stability of experimental results. It is widely used in a variety of fields, including industrial automation and automotive electronics systems. Whether in home electronics, industrial automation systems, communications systems, or scientific laboratories, DC power supplies play a vital role, not only ensuring the proper operation of various electronic devices but also improving system stability, reliability, and performance.

[0003] Insufficient existing technology: Active power factor corrected DC regulated power supply is an advanced power supply device with many advantages. However, this power supply also has some disadvantages. The first is the high cost. Due to the complex circuit and control technology and high-quality electronic components used in it, the overall cost is relatively high. Secondly, although it has high reliability, its internal structure is complex and maintenance is relatively difficult, which may require professional technicians to perform maintenance. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the present invention provides a DC regulated power supply with active power factor correction to solve the problems existing in the above-mentioned background technology.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: a DC regulated power supply with active power factor correction, comprising a DC voltage stabilizing circuit, and also comprising: a rectifier circuit, a power factor correction circuit, and a voltage stabilizing circuit. The input of the DC voltage stabilizing circuit is AC power, and the output is a stable DC power supply. The DC voltage stabilizing circuit is composed of a rectifier circuit, a power factor correction circuit, and a voltage stabilizing circuit. The rectifier circuit includes four diodes. The rectifier circuit converts AC power into DC power. The power factor correction circuit includes a chopper circuit, a filter capacitor, and a PWM switching power supply. The voltage stabilizing circuit includes a voltage stabilizing diode and a resistor. The voltage stabilizing diode, also known as a Zener diode, is a diode made by utilizing the reverse breakdown state of a PN junction to stabilize voltage and usually operates in a reverse breakdown state.

[0006] Furthermore, the rectifier circuit is also called a rectifier bridge stack, which is a circuit that converts alternating current into direct current. The four diodes are connected in the form of a "bridge". During the positive half-cycle and negative half-cycle of the alternating current, two diodes are turned on, so that the current flowing through the load resistor has the same direction, thereby obtaining a DC signal with the same polarity at the output end.

[0007] Furthermore, the chopper circuit is responsible for converting the input current into a high-frequency square wave signal, adjusting it to the required voltage level through a transformer, removing the high-frequency component through a filter capacitor, and the PWM switching power supply regulates the output voltage.

[0008] Furthermore, the filter capacitor is an energy storage device used to reduce the AC ripple coefficient and improve the efficient and smooth DC output, and an electrolytic capacitor is used.

[0009] Furthermore, the PWM switching power supply chops the input DC voltage into pulse voltages with an amplitude equal to the input voltage amplitude through chopping, and the duty cycle of these pulses is adjusted by the controller of the PWM switching power supply, thereby achieving regulation of the output voltage.

[0010] Furthermore, when the reverse voltage of the Zener diode is lower than the reverse breakdown voltage, its reverse resistance is large and the reverse leakage current is extremely small. When the reverse voltage approaches the critical value of the reverse voltage, the reverse current suddenly increases, which is called breakdown. Although the current varies within a large range, the voltage across the Zener diode is basically stable near the breakdown voltage, thereby realizing the voltage stabilization function of the Zener diode.

The main advantage of the bridge rectifier circuit is that it does not require a special center-tapped transformer, thereby reducing the size and cost.

It is a diode made by utilizing the reverse breakdown state of a PN junction to stabilize voltage and usually operates in the reverse breakdown state.

[0021] Among them, the rectifier circuit 2 is also called a rectifier bridge stack, which is a circuit that converts alternating current into direct current. It is composed of four diodes 201, which are connected in the form of a "bridge". During the positive half-cycle and negative half-cycle of the alternating current, two diodes 201 are turned on, so that the current flowing through the load resistor has the same direction, thereby obtaining a DC signal with the same polarity at the output end. The main advantage of the bridge rectifier circuit is that it does not require a special center-tapped transformer, thereby reducing size and cost. In addition, it has high average voltage and current utilization on the load, so that the output voltage is approximately equal to 0.9 times the input voltage. It is an efficient and commonly used rectifier circuit.

It uses an electrolytic capacitor with the characteristics of low temperature rise, low loss and convenience. It is used in the circuit to filter out the AC component and make the output DC smoother.

[0024] Among them, the PWM switching power supply 303 chops the input DC voltage into a pulse voltage with an amplitude equal to the input voltage amplitude through chopping. The duty cycle of these pulses is adjusted by the controller of the PWM switching power supply 303, thereby adjusting the output voltage size. It can achieve precise output control. By adjusting the pulse width, higher resolution can be obtained, energy loss can be reduced, and power supply efficiency can be improved.

[0025] Among them, when the reverse voltage of the Zener diode 401 is lower than the reverse breakdown voltage, its reverse resistance is very large and the reverse leakage current is extremely small. When the reverse voltage approaches the critical value of the reverse voltage, the reverse current suddenly increases, which is called breakdown. Although the current varies within a large range, the voltage across the Zener diode 401 is basically stable near the breakdown voltage, thereby realizing the voltage stabilization function of the Zener diode 401.

[0026] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: the DC voltage stabilizing circuit 1 inputs AC power and outputs a stable DC power supply. The function of the rectifier circuit 2 is to convert AC power into DC power. The rectifier circuit 2 is composed of four diodes 201, which are connected in the form of a "bridge". During the positive half-cycle and negative half-cycle of the AC power, two diodes 201 are turned on, so that the current flowing through the load resistor has the same direction, thereby obtaining a DC signal with the same polarity at the output end. The power factor correction circuit 3 includes a chopper circuit 301, a filter capacitor 302 and a PWM switching power supply 303, wherein the chopper circuit 301 is responsible for converting the input current into a high-frequency square wave signal, the filter capacitor 302 is used in the circuit to filter out the AC component and make the output DC smoother, and the PWM switching power supply 303 chops the input DC voltage into a pulse voltage with an amplitude equal to the input voltage amplitude through chopping, and adjusts the output voltage. It can achieve precise output control, and by adjusting the pulse width, a higher resolution can be obtained, energy loss can be reduced, and power supply efficiency can be improved. The voltage regulator tube 401 stabilizes the voltage output by the power factor correction circuit 3.
