[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, a clear and complete description will be provided below in conjunction with the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, embodiments of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0029] Example 1

[0030] The preferred embodiment of this utility model is a single-stage PFC flyback power supply circuit, such as... Figure 1 As shown, see also Figure 2 and Figure 3 It includes inductor L1, transformer T1, first capacitor EC1, first diode D1, second diode D2, switching transistor Q1, and flyback power supply chip;

[0031] One end of inductor L1 and the positive terminal of the first diode D1 are connected to the positive terminal of the power supply, and the negative terminal of the first capacitor EC1 is connected to the negative terminal of the power supply and grounded.

[0032] The other end of inductor L1 is connected to the positive terminal of the second diode D2, and the negative terminal of the first diode D1 is connected to the positive terminal of the first capacitor EC1 and one end of the primary coil of transformer T1.

[0033] The negative terminal of the second diode D2 is connected to the middle of the primary coil of transformer T1, and the other end of the primary coil of transformer T1 is connected to the switching transistor Q1.

[0034] Switch Q1 is used to control the grounding of the primary coil of transformer T1. Switch Q1 is connected to the flyback power supply chip and is controlled by it.

[0035] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows:

[0036] The timing sequence for the on / off state switching of Q1 is as follows: Figure 3 As shown;

[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, when Q1 is turned on, inductor L1 and transformer T1 store energy; (I_1 and I_2 are both current flow directions);

[0038] like Figure 2 As shown, Q1 is off, L1 releases energy and returns to capacitor EC1 via D2, and the energy of the primary winding of transformer T1 is coupled to the secondary winding of transformer; (I_1 and I_2 are both current flow directions);

[0039] The circuit of this application combines inductor L1, second diode D2 and switching transistor Q1 to form a boost circuit. The flyback power supply and the boost circuit share a single switching transistor Q1, which can meet the power supply harmonic testing requirements while significantly reducing the number of components, thereby reducing cost and power supply size. It can be applied to any switching power supply product that requires harmonic testing and is suitable for widespread adoption.

[0040] The drawback of this scheme is that L1 is connected to the primary intermediate winding of the transformer, and the energy stored and released by L1 is relatively small, so the power supply PF value cannot be greater than 0.9 across the entire voltage range.

[0041] Preferably, the circuit further includes a rectifier stack BD1, the positive output terminal of the rectifier stack BD1 being the positive terminal of the power supply, and the negative output terminal of the rectifier stack being the negative terminal of the power supply.

[0042] Preferably, the switching transistor Q1 is an NMOS transistor;

[0043] The gate (G) of the NMOS transistor is connected to the flyback power supply chip, the source (S) of the NMOS transistor is grounded, and the drain (D) of the NMOS transistor is connected to the other end of the primary coil of transformer T1.

[0044] It should be noted that the switching transistor is only a preferred implementation method, and it can be replaced by other controllable switch forms as needed. The solutions obtained based on such equivalent replacements also fall within the protection scope of this application.

[0045] Preferably, the circuit also includes a third diode D3 and a second capacitor EC2;

[0046] One end of the secondary coil of transformer T1 is connected to the positive terminal of the third diode D3, and the negative terminal of the third diode D3 is connected to the positive terminal of the second capacitor EC2 and the positive output terminal.

[0047] The other end of the secondary coil of transformer T1 is connected to the negative terminal of the second capacitor EC2 and the negative output terminal.

[0048] Example 2

[0049] This embodiment is basically the same as the previous embodiment, and the similarities will not be repeated here. Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the difference is:

[0050] The negative terminal of the second diode D2 is connected to the other end of the primary coil of transformer T1;

[0051] The principle behind this implementation method is as follows:

[0052] Refer to the timing diagram for the on / off state switching of Q1. Figure 3 ;

[0053] like Figure 4 As shown, Q1 is turned on, and inductor L1 and transformer T1 store energy; (I_1 and I_2 are both current flow directions);

[0054] like Figure 5 As shown, Q1 is off, L1 releases energy and returns to capacitor EC1 via D2, and the energy of the primary winding of transformer T1 is coupled to the secondary winding of transformer T1; (I_1 and I_2 are both current flow directions);

[0055] In this scheme, L1 is connected to Q1. L1 stores and releases a large amount of energy, and the power supply's power factor (PF) can reach >0.9 across the entire voltage range. Compared to the first embodiment, this implementation scheme is more effective. Of course, both implementation schemes fall within the scope of protection of this application.

[0056] Example 3

[0057] A flyback power supply product with single-stage PFC is provided, wherein the product is provided with a single-stage PFC flyback power supply circuit as described above; the product range can cover any switching power supply product that requires harmonic testing, as well as other electronic products that can be applied to the circuits of this application.

[0058] It should be understood that those skilled in the art can make improvements or modifications based on the above description, and all such improvements and modifications should fall within the protection scope of the appended claims.
