TECHNICAL FIELD

[0057] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[0058] The core of the present application is to provide a phase-shifted full-bridge converter and a control method, device and medium thereof, to reduce the switching loss of the circuit and realize soft switching of the circuit.

[0059] Figure 1 is a structure diagram of a prior phase-shifted full-bridge circuit provided by an embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 1, in the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit 2, when the circuit is in a low-power output state, in order to reduce power consumption, the on-time of the switch tube needs to be reduced (i.e. the duty cycle is reduced), which results in that the switching frequency of the switch tube is too high and the switching loss of the circuit is too large, which affects the stability of the circuit. In order to solve this technical problem, the present application provides a phase-shifted full-bridge converter and a control method thereof. When the working state of the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit meets a preset condition, the target on-time of the switch tube is determined according to the corresponding relationship between the on-time of the switch tube in the continuous current mode and the discontinuous current mode, and the target duty cycle is determined according to the corresponding relationship between the duty cycle, the on-time and the output power of the circuit in the discontinuous current mode, so that the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit enters the discontinuous current mode, thereby reducing the switching loss of the switch tube. Further, by controlling the first capacitor, the second capacitor, the third capacitor, the fourth capacitor and the transformer of the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit to be in a resonant state within the off-time of the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit, the soft switching of the circuit is realized, thereby further reducing the switching loss.

[0060] In order for those skilled in the art to better understand the scheme of the present application, the present application will be further described in detail below in combination with the drawings and specific embodiments.

[0061] Figure 2 is a structure diagram of a phase-shifted full-bridge converter provided by an embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 2, the phase-shifted full-bridge converter comprises a controller 1, a phase-shifted full-bridge circuit 2 and a first capacitor Cd1 and a second capacitor Cd2. The phase-shifted full-bridge circuit 2 comprises a first bridge arm circuit, a second bridge arm circuit, an inductor, a transformer and a first diode D1, a second diode D2, a third capacitor Cr1 and a fourth capacitor Cr2. The first end of the inductor is connected to the midpoint of the first bridge arm circuit, the second end of the inductor is connected to the first end of the primary side of the transformer, and the second end of the primary side of the transformer is connected to the midpoint of the second bridge arm circuit. The first end of the secondary side of the transformer is connected to the second end of the third capacitor Cr1 and the first end of the fourth capacitor Cr2, and the second end of the secondary side of the transformer is connected to the anode of the first diode D1 and the cathode of the second diode D2. The cathode of the first diode D1 and the first end of the third capacitor Cr1 are commonly connected as a first output end, and the anode of the second diode D2 and the second end of the fourth capacitor Cr2 are commonly connected as a second output end. The first capacitor Cd1 is connected in parallel with the first diode D1 of the secondary side of the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit 2, and the second capacitor Cd2 is connected in parallel with the second diode D2 of the secondary side of the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit 2. The controller 1 is connected to the control end of each switch tube of the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit 2.

[0062] In the embodiment, when the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit 2 is in the low-power output state, the controller 1 controls the on-off timing of the switch tubes to make the circuit enter the current discontinuous mode, thereby reducing the switching frequency of the switch tubes and lowering the switching loss. When the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit 2 is in the high-power output state, the controller 1 controls the on-off timing of the switch tubes to make the circuit enter the current continuous mode, thereby ensuring the stable output of the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit 2. The high power and the low power are values determined according to the element information of the circuit, which are not limited here.

[0063] In the embodiment, in order to reduce the switching frequency of the switch tubes, the on time of the switch tubes needs to be increased, i.e., the low-level output time in each output period of the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit 2 needs to be increased. After the low-level output time is increased, in order to ensure the output power (ensure the duty cycle), the high-level output time is increased, and the overall period is also increased.

[0064] The embodiment provides a phase-shifted full-bridge converter, which comprises a controller, a phase-shifted full-bridge circuit, and a first capacitor and a second capacitor. The first capacitor is connected in parallel with a first diode on the secondary side of the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit, and the second capacitor is connected in parallel with a second diode on the secondary side of the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit. The controller is configured to, when detecting that a power demand value does not satisfy a preset condition, determine an output duty cycle according to the power demand value, determine an off time of the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit according to the element information of the circuit, and determine an output period of the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit according to the duty cycle and the off time, so as to ensure that the output power of the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit meets the power demand value. The controller is further configured to control the on-off timing of the switch tubes of the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit according to the output period, so that the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit enters the current discontinuous mode. The off time is a value that makes the switching frequency of each switch tube not greater than a preset frequency, and the preset frequency is a value determined according to the corresponding relationship between the switching loss of the switch tube and the output power of the circuit. The controller 1 is further configured to control the first capacitor, the second capacitor, a third capacitor, a fourth capacitor, and a transformer to be in a resonant state within the off time of the phase-shifted full-bridge converter, so as to realize soft switching of the circuit after the off time of the phase-shifted full-bridge converter ends, and further reduce the switching loss. It can be seen that, in the technical solution provided in the embodiment, when the working state of the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit meets the preset condition, the target on time of the switch tube is determined according to the corresponding relationship between the on time of the switch tube in the current continuous mode and the current discontinuous mode, and the target duty cycle is determined according to the corresponding relationship between the on time and the output power of the circuit in the current discontinuous mode, so that the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit enters the current discontinuous mode, thereby reducing the switching loss of the switch tube. Further, by controlling the first capacitor, the second capacitor, the third capacitor, the fourth capacitor, and the transformer of the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit to be in the resonant state within the off time of the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit, the soft switching of the circuit is realized, thereby further reducing the switching loss.

[0065] Fig. 3 is a flow chart of a control method of a phase-shifted full-bridge converter provided by an embodiment of the present application, the control method being applied to a phase-shifted full-bridge converter including a controller 1, a phase-shifted full-bridge circuit 2, and a first capacitor Cd1 and a second capacitor Cd2, as shown in Fig. 3, and the control method including the following steps:

[0066] S10: When it is detected that the working state of the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit meets a preset condition, determining the target turn-on time of each switch tube of the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit according to the power demand value and the circuit element information;

[0067] S11: Determining the target duty cycle and the output period of the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit according to the target turn-on time and a preset corresponding relationship; wherein the preset corresponding relationship is the corresponding relationship between the duty cycle and the turn-on time and the circuit output power in the current discontinuous mode;

[0068] S12: Controlling the conduction timing of the switch tube of the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit according to the output period and the target duty cycle, so that the first capacitor, the second capacitor, the third capacitor, the fourth capacitor and the transformer of the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit are in a resonant state in the turn-off time of the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit.

[0069] As shown in Fig. 2, the phase-shifted full-bridge converter provided by the present application includes a controller 1, a primary bridge arm circuit, a transformer, a first diode D1, a second diode D2, a first capacitor Cd1, a second capacitor Cd2, a third capacitor Cr1, and a fourth capacitor Cr2; the first end of the secondary winding of the transformer is connected to the second end of the first capacitor Cd1 and the first end of the second capacitor Cd2, the second end of the secondary winding of the transformer is connected to the anode of the first diode D1 and the cathode of the second diode D2, the cathode of the first diode D1 and the first end of the first capacitor Cd1 are commonly connected as the first output end of the phase-shifted full-bridge converter, the anode of the second diode D2 and the second end of the second capacitor Cd2 are commonly connected as the second output end of the phase-shifted full-bridge converter; the third capacitor Cr1 is connected in parallel with the first diode D1, and the fourth capacitor Cr2 is connected in parallel with the second diode D2; the controller 1 is configured to obtain a power output instruction to determine the working state of the phase-shifted full-bridge converter and the control strategy corresponding to the working state according to the power output instruction.

[0070] In the implementation process, the primary side bridge arm circuit comprises: a first bridge arm and a second bridge arm; the first ends of the first bridge arm and the second bridge arm are connected, and the second ends of the first bridge arm and the second bridge arm are commonly connected; the midpoint of the first bridge arm is connected with the first end of the transformer primary side circuit, and the midpoint of the second bridge arm is connected with the second end of the transformer primary side circuit; correspondingly, the controller 1 judging whether the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit satisfies the preset condition can be judging whether the power output instruction is greater than the power threshold value; if greater than the power threshold value, it is determined that the phase-shifted full-bridge converter is in a high-power output state, and does not satisfy the preset condition; if not greater than the power threshold value, it is determined that the phase-shifted full-bridge converter is in a low-power output device, and satisfies the preset condition. In addition, the controller 1 controlling whether the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit satisfies the preset condition can also judge whether the switching frequency of the switching tube is greater than the preset frequency, and if greater than the preset frequency, it is determined that the preset condition is satisfied.

[0071] Specifically, when greater than the power threshold value, the phase-shifted full-bridge circuit 2 is in a current continuous mode, and in this mode, there are six modes in a period of the current continuous mode, and the specific conditions are as follows:

[0072] As shown in FIG. 4, mode one (t0-t1) is specifically:

[0073] At time t0, the inverter completes commutation, and the first switching tube Q1 and the fourth switching tube Q4 are forwardly turned on. The transformer primary side circuit current, starting from zero, flows through the first switching tube Q1, the leakage inductance, the transformer, and the fourth switching tube Q4 in a forward direction and continuously increases. The transformer secondary side D1 enters a cut-off state, the Cd1 voltage increases from zero and is charged, and the Cd2 voltage decreases from Vm and is discharged. The resonance capacitor Cr1 voltage decreases from the maximum value and is discharged, and the resonance capacitor Cr2 voltage increases from the minimum value and is charged. At time t1, Cd1 is charged to Vm, Cd2 is discharged to zero, and D2 is turned on. In mode one, the topology does not output current to Vm, and Lr / Lm / Cd1 / Cd2 / Cr1 / Cr2 participate in resonance at the same time.

[0074] As shown in FIG. 5, mode two (t1-t2) is specifically:

[0075] From mode one to mode two, the control signal of the controller 1 does not change, and the capacitors Cd1 / Cd2 no longer participate in resonance under the voltage clamping action of the rectifier diode. In the t1-t2 time period, the first switching tube Q1 and the fourth switching tube Q4 are forwardly turned on. The transformer primary side circuit current, maintaining a forward direction, flows through the first switching tube Q1, the leakage inductance, the transformer, and the fourth switching tube Q4. The rectifier diode D1 maintains a cut-off state, the Cd1 voltage is Vm, the Cd2 voltage is zero, and D2 is turned on. The resonance capacitor Cr1 voltage continuously decreases and is discharged, and the resonance capacitor Cr2 voltage continuously increases and is charged. In mode two, the topology outputs current to Vm, and Lr / Lm / Cr1 / Cr2 participate in resonance at the same time.

[0076] As shown in Figure 6, the third mode (t2-t3) is as follows:

[0077] At time t2, the first switch Q1 is turned off, and the fourth switch Q4 remains on. In the third mode, the input DC source Vg does not input current to the topology, and the Lr freewheeling current provides current to the topology in this time period. The transformer primary side circuit current remains forward, and the current continuously decreases through Lr, the transformer, the fourth switch Q4, and the body diode of the second switch Q2. The rectifier diode D1 remains in the cut-off state, the voltage of Cd1 is Vm, the voltage of Cd2 is zero, and D2 is on. The voltage of the resonant capacitor Cr1 continuously decreases and is discharged, and the voltage of the resonant capacitor Cr2 continuously increases and is charged. At time t3, the transformer primary side current and the D2 current freewheel to zero, and D2 is cut off. At this time, Cr1 is discharged to the lowest voltage, and Cr2 is charged to the highest voltage.

[0078] In the third mode (t3-t4), the topology outputs current to Vm, and Lr / Lm / Cr1 / Cr2 participate in resonance at the same time. The fourth, fifth, and sixth modes are completely symmetrical to the first, second, and third modes, and will not be described again.

[0079] When the power threshold is not greater than the power threshold, the phase-shifted full-bridge converter is in the current discontinuous mode, and in this mode, there are eight modes in one period, and the specific conditions are as follows:

[0080] The first, second, and third modes in the current discontinuous mode are completely the same as those in the current continuous mode. The fourth mode is an additional mode in the current discontinuous mode compared with the current continuous mode, and the fourth mode is divided into two sections, the fourth one and the fourth two. During this period, the transformer current is reversed multiple times and provides conditions for entering the fifth mode to realize soft switching.

[0081] Figure 7 is a main waveform diagram of the modes in the current continuous mode of the present application. From top to bottom, it includes the output voltage of the full-bridge, the voltage and current of the transformer primary side excitation inductance Lm, the voltage and current of the transformer primary side leakage inductance, the voltage and current of the resonant capacitor Cr1, the voltage and current of the resonant capacitor Cr2, the voltage and current of the resonant capacitor Cd1, the voltage and current of the resonant capacitor Cd2, the voltage and current of the rectifier diode D1, the voltage and current of the rectifier diode D2, and the output current of the full-bridge. As shown in Figure 7, the voltage waveform output by the full-bridge circuit under control corresponds to the current and the transformer primary side leakage inductance current. The sum of the Cr1 / Cr2 voltages is always Vm, and the currents are always equal in size and opposite in direction. Cd1 and D1 are in parallel, and Cd2 and D2 are in parallel, so their voltage curves are completely the same. Cd1 and Cd2 only participate in resonance when the current is not zero in the first mode (t0-t1) and the fourth mode (t3-t4), and do not participate in resonance in the remaining modes. The output voltage is constant at Vm, and the current changes with the mode.

[0082] The mode four one (t3-t4) is shown in Fig. 8, the transformer primary side freewheeling current is reduced to 0 and reverses at t3, the second switch Q2 and the fourth switch Q4 are kept on, and the first switch Q1 and the third switch Q3 are kept off at the moment before and after. The input DC source Vg does not input current to the topology in the mode four one, and the Lr provides current to the topology. The transformer primary side circuit current is kept reversed, passing through Lr, transformer, body diode of the second switch Q2 and the fourth switch Q4. The rectifier diode D1 is kept off, the D2 is off, the Cd1 starts to discharge, and the Cd2 starts to charge. The resonant capacitor Cr1 is charged through the Cd1, and the voltage increases. The resonant capacitor Cr2 is discharged through the Cd2, and the voltage decreases. In the mode four one, the Vm only plays a voltage clamping role, and the topology does not transmit energy to it, and the Lr / Lm / Cr1 / Cr2 / Cd1 / Cd2 participates in resonance at the same time. At t4, the transformer primary side current is again freewheeling to 0 and reverses.

[0083] In the mode four two (t4-t5), as shown in Fig. 9, the transformer primary side freewheeling current is again freewheeling to 0 at t4, and the direction changes from negative to positive. The second switch Q2 and the fourth switch Q4 are kept on, and the first switch Q1 and the third switch Q3 are kept off at the moment before and after. The input DC source Vg does not input current to the topology in the mode four two, and the Lr provides current to the topology. The transformer primary side circuit current is kept positive, passing through Lr, transformer, body diode of the fourth switch Q4 and the second switch Q2. The rectifier diodes D1 and D2 are kept off, the Cd1 starts to charge, and the Cd2 starts to discharge. The resonant capacitor Cr1 is discharged through the Cd1, and the voltage decreases. The resonant capacitor Cr2 is charged through the Cd2, and the voltage increases. In the mode four two, the Vm only plays a voltage clamping role, and the topology does not transmit energy to it, and the Lr / Lm / Cr1 / Cr2 / Cd1 / Cd2 participates in resonance at the same time. At t5, the transformer primary side current is again freewheeling to 0 and reverses.

[0084] The mode four (including the mode four one and the mode four two) is a free resonance state, and the third switch Q3 and the fourth switch Q4 of the lagging bridge arm can provide soft switching conditions in the mode four two. In the current discontinuous mode, as long as the energy in the resonant cavity can still maintain the resonance state, the time length (free resonance period number) of the mode four can be arbitrarily adjusted according to the control needs.

[0085] The mode eight and the mode four are symmetrical, the third switch Q3 is off, and the fourth switch Q4 is on, and the soft switching principle is the same, which will not be described here.

[0086] Fig. 10 is a main waveform diagram of the mode of the current discontinuous mode of the application, and Fig. 11 is another waveform diagram of the mode of the current discontinuous mode of the application, from top to bottom including the output voltage of the full bridge, the voltage and current of the magnetizing inductance Lm of the primary side of the transformer, the voltage and current of the leakage inductance of the primary side of the transformer, the voltage and current of the resonance capacitor Cr1, the voltage and current of the resonance capacitor Cr2, the voltage and current of the resonance capacitor Cd1, the voltage and current of the resonance capacitor Cd2, the voltage and current of the rectifier diode D1, the voltage and current of the rectifier diode D2, and the output current of the full bridge.

[0087] The topology of the application is controlled as follows. The single-phase full-bridge primary side of the transformer circuit is composed of four MOSFETs, namely the first switch Q1, the second switch Q2, the third switch Q3, and the fourth switch Q4. The first switch Q1 and the second switch Q2 form the leading bridge arm, and the third switch Q3 and the fourth switch Q4 form the lagging bridge arm. The single-phase full-bridge output is connected to the primary side of the transformer, where Lr is the leakage inductance of the primary side of the transformer, and Lm is the magnetizing inductance Lm of the primary side of the transformer. The secondary side of the transformer is connected to the rectifier diodes D1 / D2, and the resonance capacitors Cr1 / Cr2, both of which have a capacitance of Cr. The first diode D1 and the second diode D2 are respectively connected in parallel with the first capacitor Cd1 and the second capacitor Cd2, both of which have a capacitance of Cd.

[0088] The primary side uses the phase-shifted full-bridge technology to achieve soft switching (ZVS) control of the leading bridge arm using the transformer leakage inductance Lr freewheeling and the body diode and parasitic capacitor of the MOSFET, while achieving soft switching (ZCS) control of the lagging bridge arm using the transformer leakage inductance Lr freewheeling and natural turn-off of the rectifier diodes in the secondary side. During the process of charging and discharging of the capacitors Cd1 / Cd2 while the rectifier diodes in the secondary side are all turned off, the topology does not charge the secondary side Vm. During this period, the transformer leakage inductance Lr is charged by the input DC source of the primary side, storing energy until the capacitors Cd1 / Cd2 in the secondary side are fully charged and discharged, the rectifier diodes complete commutation and start to supply power to Vm. At this time, due to the inability of the primary side leakage inductance Lr current to change abruptly, an induced electromotive force is generated to maintain the original current, and the input voltage Vg is superimposed to supply power to the transformer, thereby achieving the ability to increase the input voltage range and improving the boost ratio of the topology.

[0089] In the continuous current mode, the transformer current cannot be abruptly changed, so the current in the bridge arm is transferred from the body diode of the first switch Q1 to the body diode of the second switch Q2 after the first switch Q1 is turned off, which provides a condition for the zero-voltage switching (ZVS) of the second switch Q2. In the conversion process from the mode five to the mode six, the second switch Q2 is turned off, and the first switch Q1 is turned on in the soft switching principle. In the mode three, the transformer current continues to flow to be close to 0, so the fourth switch Q4 can achieve the zero-current switching (ZCS), and because the transformer current cannot be abruptly changed, the current in the bridge arm is transferred from the fourth switch Q4 to the body diode of the third switch Q3, which provides a condition for the zero-voltage switching (ZVS) of the third switch Q3. At the end of the mode six, the third switch Q3 is turned off, and the fourth switch Q4 is turned on in the soft switching principle.

[0090] In the discontinuous current mode, the soft switching of the leading bridge arm is achieved in the same way as in the continuous current mode.

[0091] In the mode four in the discontinuous current mode, the transformer primary current forms a loop through the body diode of the second switch Q2 and the body diode of the fourth switch Q4, and when the transformer current continues to flow to be close to 0, the fourth switch Q4 can achieve the zero-current switching (ZCS), and because the transformer current cannot be abruptly changed, the current in the bridge arm is transferred from the fourth switch Q4 to the body diode of the third switch Q3, which provides a condition for the zero-voltage switching (ZVS) of the third switch Q3. In the mode eight, the third switch Q3 is turned off, and the fourth switch Q4 is turned on in the soft switching principle. The discontinuous current mode reduces the switching frequency at low power transmission by adding the free resonance processes of the mode four and the mode eight, and still maintains the soft switching of the full-bridge control. After reducing the switching frequency, a larger effective switch-on time ton is needed for the same transmission power, which helps to stabilize the control at low power transmission and reduces the switching loss.

[0092] Based on the above control, the input current Iin can be obtained through the resonant device primary leakage inductance Lr, excitation inductance Lm, third capacitor Cr1, fourth capacitor Cr2, first capacitor Cd1, second capacitor Cd2, transformer turn ratio n, input and output voltages Vg and Vm, switching period T, and effective switch-on time ton. Because Lr, Lm, Cd1, Cd2, Cr1, Cr2, and the transformer turn ratio n are constants, the following equation is obtained:

[0093] Iin=I1(Vg,Vm,Lr,Lm,Cd,Cr,T,ton)=I2(Vg,Vm,T,ton);

[0094] The input power Pin can be further obtained as Iin*Vg.

[0095] Based on the above transformer primary side lag bridge arm soft switching (ZCS) control mode can be derived effective opening time (mode one and mode two) :

[0096] ton = ton1 (Vm / Vg, Lr, Lm, Cd, Cr, T) = ton2 (Vm / Vg, T) ;

[0097] Phase shift time (mode three) :

[0098] tps = T / 2 - ton = tps (Vm / Vg, T).
