The invention discloses a bypass
inductor echelon
current limiting topology and method for
solid-state power distribution equipment, relates to the technical field of power electronic distribution, and is suitable for
solid-state power controllers in the fields of
aerospace,
new energy automobiles and industrial
automation. In order to solve the problems that when a large capacitive load is started, a current peak is likely to be generated to damage a device, and an existing
current limiting scheme is low in efficiency or large in size, the topology comprises an input circuit, a main power circuit, an
auxiliary circuit, a
current limiting circuit, an absorption circuit and a load side circuit. According to the method, the
auxiliary circuit switch tube is turned on in an echelon mode, and the main switch tube is turned on to complete starting after load
voltage approaches
power supply voltage and reaches a non-
voltage-difference condition. According to the
planar inductor integrated PCB, the size is reduced, the problem of long-term heating of a
resistor is solved, the TVS
overvoltage protection and RC anti-interference design are matched, the current peak is effectively restrained, the
system efficiency and reliability are improved, and the high-power-density and differential-pressure-free starting requirements are met.
