[0026] In the above circuit structure, the control board is connected to the liquid crystal display circuit via a serial communication circuit to enable parameter display and setting. The control board is connected to the drive circuit via a four-corner switch circuit to control the power devices in the main circuit. The main circuit topology is a synchronous two-switch buck-boost DC conversion circuit structure. The control board is connected to the main sampling circuit via an ADC sampling circuit to sample the input and output voltages and currents. The main sampling circuit transmits the sampled voltage and current signals to the control board. Based on these signals, the control board generates control signals via an enhanced EPWM generation circuit.

[0027] like Figure 8 As shown in Figure 1, the ADC sampling circuit is equipped with hardware low-pass filtering and voltage and current protection circuits. This filter can effectively filter out high-order harmonics and reduce the high-frequency noise generated by switching operations, thereby further reducing the output voltage ripple.

[0028] The main sampling circuit in this embodiment includes a current sampling circuit and a voltage sampling circuit, such as Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the current sampling circuit uses the ACS712ELCTR Hall effect linear current sensor, which has circuit isolation, supports 20A current input, 5V supply voltage, sensitivity 297mV / A, frequency DC ~ 80kHz linearity: ±1.5, accuracy: ±1.5%, 5μs, which is sufficient to meet the design requirements. Figure 5 As shown, the voltage acquisition circuit is an isolated differential sampling circuit using the Ti AMC1311 precision voltage detection reinforced isolated amplifier. It supports a 2V input and can adjust the input voltage accuracy and range by adjusting the value of the sense resistor. The resistors configured in this detection circuit are 3kΩ and 97kΩ, enabling 67V and 33V / mV detection.

Its BUCK mode supports range adjustment from 0 to input voltage, and BOOST mode supports range adjustment from input voltage to three times the input voltage. The maximum voltage of the two modes is 64V, which enables the circuit to adapt to a wider range of application requirements. In addition, through high-precision ADC sampling circuit and enhanced EPWM generation circuit, precise control of input and output voltages and currents is achieved, which improves the control accuracy of the circuit.
