[0002] With the rapid development of consumer electronics, LED devices have been widely used, leading to a surge in demand for switching power supply chips to support them. Traditional switching power supply control circuits typically use an independent power supply for the internal control circuitry. This requires two sets of windings: a primary winding for energy storage and an auxiliary winding for powering the load. Primary-side modulation technology eliminates the need for secondary sampling circuits, offering advantages such as fewer external components and lower circuit complexity.

Circuits with auxiliary windings are not only structurally complex and costly to manufacture, but also have a high output voltage V of the auxiliary winding. A The circuitry is susceptible to fluctuations due to load changes, which can affect the normal operation of the control circuit.

During normal system operation, the current detection circuit converts the sampled current signal into a control signal, which is then fed back to the constant current drive circuit. Each switching transistor periodically turns on and off under the control of the constant current drive circuit. The self-powered drive circuit also includes an energy storage element, which is charged by an external power source after power-on and discharges when the power supply voltage is insufficient. When the energy storage element provides insufficient power, the self-powered control module controls the switching transistors within the self-powered circuit to turn on, allowing current to flow through the switching transistors controlled by the constant current drive circuit and the internal switching transistors of the self-powered circuit to charge the power supply. This enables a self-powered switching power supply that eliminates the need for auxiliary windings.

[0069] This application provides a self-powered switch driving circuit, including: an undervoltage lockout circuit, a constant current driving circuit, a self-powered circuit, a current detection circuit, a first switch transistor, a second switch transistor, and a third switch transistor.

The fifth switching transistor is a P-type metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor.
[0078] The current detection circuit includes a sampling circuit and a current limiting protection circuit. The current limiting protection circuit includes a third comparator and a fourth comparator; the sampling circuit is connected to both the third and fourth comparators.
[0079] In one embodiment, the power supply circuit includes: an energy storage element; one end of the energy storage element is connected to a power source; the other end of the energy storage element is grounded; the energy storage element is a capacitor.
[0080] As an optional implementation, the first switching transistor is an NPN bipolar transistor; the second switching transistor is an N-type metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor.
[0081] Specifically, in combination Figures 3-7 The self-powered switch drive circuit mentioned in this application is further described below. The undervoltage lockout circuit is connected to the voltage pin of the power supply VCC and controls the third switch S1. The undervoltage lockout circuit detects whether the power supply voltage is undervoltage and controls the conduction state of the third switch S1 according to the voltage state. When the power supply voltage drops to the undervoltage lockout threshold Vth1, a control signal is generated to turn off the third switch S1; when the power supply voltage rises to the exit undervoltage lockout threshold Vth2, a control signal is generated to turn off the third switch S1.
[0082] The constant current drive circuit is connected to the base of the first switching transistor Q1, the base of the second switching transistor M1, and the self-powered circuit. The constant current drive circuit is regulated by the undervoltage lockout circuit and the current detection circuit.
[0083] The self-powered circuit is connected to the constant current drive circuit, the emitter of the first switching transistor Q1, and the drain of the second switching transistor M1.
[0084] The current detection circuit is connected to the constant current drive circuit and the current sampling CS pin. The circuit detection circuit converts the sampled current value into a voltage value and compares it with the comparator inside the current detection circuit, thereby outputting a control signal to control the constant current drive circuit.
[0085] The self-powered switch drive circuit mentioned in this application also includes a self-powered control module. The self-powered control module integrates a self-powered control algorithm. The self-powered control module is connected to the self-powered circuit and is used to control whether to perform a self-powered operation in the current cycle.
[0086] The first switching transistor Q1 is an NPN bipolar junction transistor (BJT). The first terminal (base) of the first switching transistor Q1 is connected to the constant current drive circuit, the second terminal (collector) of the first switching transistor Q1 is connected to the collector pin of the switching power supply chip C, and the third terminal of the first switching transistor Q1 is the emitter.
[0087] The second switch M1 is an N-type metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor, i.e., an NMOS field-effect transistor. The first terminal (base) of the second switch M1 is connected to the constant current drive circuit, and the second terminal (drain) is connected to the third terminal (emitter) of the first switch Q1. The source of the second switch M1 is grounded.
[0088] The first terminal of the third switching transistor S1 is connected to the power supply VCC, and the second terminal is connected to the constant current drive circuit. The third switching transistor S1 is controlled by the undervoltage lockout circuit.
[0089] The energy storage element C1 is a capacitor. The first end of the energy storage element C1 is connected to the power supply VCC, and the second end of the energy storage element C1 is grounded, that is, connected to the reference ground pin GND.
[0090] like Figure 4 As shown, the undervoltage lockout circuit includes a resistor array and a first comparator Comp1. The resistor array is connected to the power supply circuit for power supply voltage division and generation of voltage signal Vref1; the first input terminal of the first comparator Comp1 is connected to the voltage signal Vref1, and the second terminal is connected to the reference voltage signal Vref of the bias circuit (i.e., the reference voltage and bias circuit), for comparing the voltage signal Vref1 with the reference voltage signal Vref.
[0091] When the power supply voltage drops, the voltage signal generated after voltage division by the resistor array also drops. When the voltage signal Vref1 drops to the reference voltage signal Vref at the second terminal of the first comparator Comp1, the first comparator Comp1 is triggered to flip and generate a control signal, which controls the third switch S1 to turn off and enter the undervoltage lockout state.
[0092] like Figure 5 As shown, the constant current drive circuit includes an internal reference voltage and bias circuit (i.e., bias circuit), which is connected to the second terminal of the third switch S1, thereby controlling the operating state of the internal reference voltage and bias circuit. When the voltage potential of the power supply VCC is lower than the undervoltage lockout threshold Vth1, the internal reference voltage and bias circuit is turned off by the third switch S1.
[0093] That is, the internal reference voltage and bias circuit is connected to the power supply VCC through the third switch S1. When the undervoltage lockout function is triggered, the internal reference voltage and bias circuit disconnects from the power supply VCC.
[0094] The constant current drive circuit also includes a logic control circuit. When operating in DCM discontinuous conduction mode, the average output current I... OUT The area method can be used to calculate, where T dem T is the demagnetization time. sw N is the switching cycle time. p and N s These represent the number of turns in the primary inductor and the number of turns in the secondary inductor, respectively. pk That is, I PEAK It is the peak current of the primary inductance. When the demagnetization time T... dem With switching cycle time T swWhen the ratio is fixed at 1 / 2 (typical value), the actual output current can be kept constant.
[0095]
[0096] like Figure 6 As shown, the self-powered circuit includes: a power supply circuit, a power supply voltage clamping circuit, and a charging control circuit. The charging control circuit includes the fifth switching transistor S3. That is, in Figure 6 In the diagram, after removing the constant current drive circuit, the remaining part within the dashed box is the self-powered circuit.
[0097] The first terminal of the power supply circuit is connected to the power supply VCC, and the second terminal is connected to the energy storage element C1 and then to the reference ground pin GND. When the switching power supply chip is powered on, the power supply circuit obtains energy from the power supply VCC and stores it in the energy storage element C1. When the power supply voltage is insufficient, the energy storage element discharges to ensure that the VCC voltage remains stable.
[0098] The power supply voltage clamping circuit includes a second comparator Comp2 and a fourth switch S2. When the power supply voltage exceeds the threshold voltage Vth3 of the power supply voltage clamping circuit, the second comparator Comp2 controls the fourth switch S2 to turn on and discharge the power supply VCC.
[0099] Specifically, the power supply voltage clamping circuit is used to detect whether the power supply voltage exceeds the threshold voltage Vth3, preventing the power supply voltage from becoming too high when the energy storage element C1 fails or the charging control circuit fails. The first terminal of the second comparator Comp2 is connected to the voltage signal obtained by voltage division of the power supply voltage, namely the power supply voltage divider signal VCC1, and the second terminal of the second comparator Comp2 is connected to the threshold voltage Vth3. When the power supply voltage VCC rises, the power supply voltage divider signal VCC1 rises along with the power supply voltage. When the power supply voltage divider signal VCC1 rises to the threshold voltage Vth3, the second comparator Comp2 generates a control signal to control the fourth switch S2 to turn on. The first terminal of the fourth switch S2 is connected to the power supply voltage. When the fourth switch S2 is turned on, it can discharge the power supply voltage, preventing the power supply voltage from becoming too high.
[0100] The fifth switch S3 is a P-type metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor. Its first terminal (base) is connected to the constant current drive circuit, its second terminal (source) is connected to the power supply VCC, and its third terminal (drain) is connected to the third terminal (emitter) of the first switch Q1. When the first switch Q1 and the fifth switch S3 are turned on and the second switch M1 is turned off, the current charges the power supply VCC through the first switch Q1 and the fifth switch S3.
[0101] Specifically, when the constant current drive circuit controls the fifth switch S3 to turn on, a path is created from the second terminal (collector) of the first switch Q1 to the emitter of the third terminal, through the fifth switch S3 to the power supply VCC, thereby charging the power supply VCC.
[0102] like Figure 7 As shown, the current detection circuit includes a current sampling circuit (i.e., sampling circuit) and a current limiting protection circuit.
[0103] The current sampling circuit is used to generate the current sampling signal Vcs; the current limiting protection circuit includes a third comparator Comp3 and a fourth comparator Comp4. The first terminal of the third comparator Comp3 is connected to the current sampling signal Vcs, and the second terminal of the third comparator Comp3 is connected to the threshold voltage signal Vth4. The first terminal of the fourth comparator Comp4 is connected to the current sampling signal Vcs, and the second terminal of the fourth comparator Comp4 is connected to the threshold voltage signal Vth5.
[0104] The current sampling circuit has its first terminal connected to the current sampling pin CS of the switching power supply chip, and its second terminal connected to the third comparator Comp3 and the fourth comparator Comp4. The current sampling circuit samples the current and converts it into a voltage signal Vcs, which is then compared by the third comparator Comp3 and the fourth comparator Comp4. The first terminal of the third comparator Comp3 is connected to the current sampling signal Vcs, and the second terminal is connected to the threshold voltage signal Vth4. The first terminal of the fourth comparator Comp4 is connected to the current sampling signal Vcs, and the second terminal is connected to the threshold voltage signal Vth5. The signals generated by the third comparator Comp3 and the fourth comparator Comp4 are fed back to the constant current drive circuit. When the current sampling signal Vcs reaches the threshold voltage signal Vth4, the constant current drive circuit controls the second switch M1 to turn off. When the current sampling signal Vcs reaches the threshold voltage signal Vth5, the constant current drive circuit controls the fifth switch S3 to turn on and charge the power supply VCC.
[0105] In one embodiment, the operation of the constant current drive circuit is as follows:
[0106] The constant current drive circuit adopts a cycle-by-cycle current detection mode. The current detection circuit compares the current sampling signal Vcs with the threshold voltage signals Vth4 and Vth5. When the current sampling signal Vcs reaches the threshold voltage signal Vth4, the constant current drive circuit 2 controls the first switch Q1 to turn off until the next turn-on cycle arrives. When the current sampling signal Vcs reaches the threshold voltage signal Vth5, the constant current drive circuit controls the fifth switch S3 to turn on to charge the power supply VCC.
[0107] Figure 8This is a flowchart of the self-powered control algorithm. The self-powered control module uses this algorithm to determine whether to perform a self-powered operation in the current cycle. First, it detects the voltage of the power supply VCC. If the voltage is greater than or equal to the reference voltage Vref2, it enters a non-self-powered cycle; if the voltage is less than the reference voltage Vref2, it enters a self-powered cycle. When entering a non-self-powered cycle, an internal counter is reset; when entering a self-powered cycle, the internal counter is incremented. The internal counter records the number of consecutive self-powered cycles. When N consecutive self-powered cycles have elapsed and N ≥ K, it forces the system to enter a non-self-powered cycle in the next cycle. K is the minimum number of self-powered cycles.
[0108] The self-powered drive circuit proposed in this application can operate stably without the need for an auxiliary power supply winding. It incorporates a built-in self-powered control algorithm that detects the VCC voltage of the power supply in each cycle to determine whether self-powering operation should be performed in that cycle. The built-in high-voltage BJT eliminates the need for the RCD circuit used to absorb leakage inductance spikes when applied to a flyback topology, thereby reducing external circuit components and lowering material costs.
[0109] Example 2
[0110] like Figure 9 As shown, this application provides a driving system based on a self-powered switch driving circuit. The driving system includes: an adjustment circuit, a conversion circuit, and the self-powered switch driving circuit from Embodiment 1.
[0111] The adjustment circuit is connected to the self-powered switch drive circuit; the conversion circuit is connected to the self-powered switch drive circuit; wherein, the adjustment circuit includes: a first diode D11, a second diode D12, a third diode D13, a fourth diode D14, a first resistor R1, a second resistor R2, a third resistor R3, and a first capacitor C11.
[0112] The conversion circuit includes: a second capacitor C12, a third capacitor C13, a fourth resistor R4, a fifth resistor R5, a fifth diode D15, a sixth diode D16, and an inductor L.

The third resistor R3 is connected to the self-powered switch drive circuit.
[0115] The fourth resistor R4 and the fifth diode D15 are connected in series. The second capacitor C12 is connected in parallel with the fourth resistor R4, and one end of the second capacitor C12 is connected to one end of the fourth resistor R4. The other end of the second capacitor C12 is connected to the connection point of the fourth resistor R4 and the fifth diode D15 connected in series.
[0116] The first end of inductor L is connected to one end of the fourth resistor R4; the second end of inductor L is connected to the other end of the fifth diode D15; the third end of inductor L is connected to one end of the sixth diode D16; the fourth end of inductor L is connected to the other end of the third capacitor C13; one end of the third capacitor C13 is connected to the other end of the sixth diode D16, and the third capacitor C13 is connected in parallel with inductor L; the fifth resistor R5 is connected in parallel with the third capacitor C13.
[0117] Taking an AC-DC power supply chip with a flyback SSR topology as an example, the pins of this AC-DC power supply chip include power supply VCC, current sampling pin CS, reference ground pin GND, and collector pin C of a built-in high-voltage transistor. Because this structure incorporates a high-voltage BJT, the RCD circuit used to absorb leakage inductance spikes can be omitted when applying a flyback topology, thereby reducing the number of external components and lowering material costs.
[0118] Figure 10 This is the startup waveform. When the system is powered on, the VCC capacitor is charged through the startup resistor. Once the voltage on the VCC capacitor reaches the VCC_on startup voltage, the self-powered drive control circuit will start working. In addition, to prevent high voltage from damaging the chip, the maximum voltage of the VCC pin is clamped at VCC_clamp.
[0119] Figure 11 The diagram shows the operating waveforms of a drive system based on a self-powered switch drive circuit, combined with... Figure 9 The operation of the self-powered drive control circuit is described as follows. In the Nth cycle (N < K), the self-powered control algorithm detects that the power supply voltage is less than the reference voltage Vref2, and performs self-powered operation in the current cycle. When the current sampling signal Vcs drops to the threshold voltage Vth4, the gate control signal V of the second switch M1... gM1 The signal transitions from high to low, turning off the second switch M1. When the current sampling signal Vcs drops to the threshold voltage Vth5, the gate control signal V of the fifth switch S3... gS1 The transition from high to low level controls the fifth switch S3 to turn on and charge the power supply voltage. In the (N+1)th cycle, the self-powered control algorithm detects that the power supply voltage is greater than the reference voltage Vref2, so no self-powered operation is performed in the current cycle, and the fifth switch S3 remains off. In the (N+2)th cycle, the self-powered control algorithm detects that the power supply voltage is less than the reference voltage Vref2, and repeats the working process of the Nth cycle.
