Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] This utility model relates to high-frequency switching power supplies, and more particularly to a control circuit for a switching power supply. [Background Technology]
[0002] In a conventional switching power supply, the VCC pin level of the switching power supply chip is usually obtained by charging the power supply capacitor through the primary auxiliary winding of the main transformer via diodes and the bus voltage.
[0003] The invention disclosed in application number 201610817811.X is a two-transistor forward converter circuit, including a two-transistor forward network on the primary side of the transformer, a current-doubling rectifier circuit on the secondary side, and a feedback loop. In the primary-side forward converter circuit, losses are reduced by adding an auxiliary winding to power the control chip. The use of a current-doubling rectifier circuit on the secondary side reduces the inductor current by half, making the circuit suitable for high-current applications and avoiding pulse spikes caused by the two diode circuits on the secondary side. In the feedback loop, a soft-start circuit is used to reduce the feedback error at the moment of power-on, allowing the duty cycle to rise slowly and improving circuit stability.
[0004] This invention's chip power supply method suffers from low reliability and is prone to malfunction. Because it lacks undervoltage protection, it enters a "hiccup" state when a short circuit occurs. This "hiccup" state is commonly referred to as "self-oscillation" or "repeated start-up state." This state means that under output short circuit or overload conditions, the power supply cannot operate stably, causing the switching transistor to periodically turn on and off, resulting in unstable output voltage or even failure to output normal voltage. This phenomenon not only affects the reliability of the switching power supply but can also easily damage it if the short circuit period is long. [Utility Model Content]

The switch level pin ON / OFF turns to a high level. It also continuously supplies power to the power supply pin (pin 7 VCC) of the PWM generator U3. The PWM generator starts working, and the PWM signal is output to the power conversion module 12 of the main circuit, which is the output voltage of the main circuit of the switching power supply.
[0047] 2) When the main circuit of the switching power supply outputs a normal voltage, the DC output terminal PV+ is divided by resistors R15 and R16 and then supplied to pins 1 and 2 of optocoupler U1 through Zener diode Z3, thus establishing a closed-loop system.
[0048] 3) When the main circuit of the switching power supply experiences an output short circuit, the DC input terminal PV+ of the main circuit of the switching power supply has no output voltage, the level of pins 1-2 of optocoupler U1 is lower than the conduction threshold level of the optocoupler, and pins 3-4 of optocoupler U1 are not conducting. At this time, the external power input terminal J1 no longer supplies power to pins 1-2 of optocoupler U2, pins 3-4 of optocoupler U2 are not conducting, the ON / OFF level pin of the switching level turns to a low level, the PWM generator turns off the PWM waveform level output by the OUT pin, and the main circuit of the switching power supply stops working and will not self-oscillate or repeatedly start.
[0049] The control circuit of this utility model of the switching power supply can prevent the switching transistor from periodically turning on and off under output short circuit or overload conditions, thereby improving the reliability of the switching power supply protection and preventing damage caused by repeated starts due to long short circuit cycles.
