Solution Overview

Problem

Existing power supply conversion devices struggle to balance response speed with output voltage quality when load changes rapidly, often resulting in insufficient response speed causing voltage drops or excessive overshoot.

Innovation Solution

A power supply conversion device incorporating a voltage converter, turned-off time detector, turned-on time adjuster, and slope signal adjuster to dynamically adjust control signal times and slope rates based on load changes, ensuring rapid response and stable output voltage.

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic adjustment of the turned-on time parameter based on the direction of output voltage change. When voltage increases, the turned-on time is reduced; when voltage decreases, the turned-on time is increased. This dynamic adaptation allows the system to respond quickly to load changes while automatically preventing overshoot, resolving the contradiction between response speed and output voltage quality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the control parameter (turned-on time) based on the state of the system. By detecting whether the output voltage is increasing or decreasing and adjusting the turned-on time accordingly, the system optimizes its response characteristics in real-time, achieving both fast response and stable output voltage without overshoot.

Solution Approach 1:

The system dynamically adjusts the turned-on time parameter based on voltage change direction, allowing fast response when needed while maintaining stability when voltage is increasing. This resolves the contradiction by making the response speed adaptive rather than fixed.

Inventive Principle:

Solution Approach 2:

The patent uses feedback from the output voltage detection to adjust the control signal parameters. By continuously monitoring whether voltage is increasing or decreasing and adjusting the turned-on time accordingly, the system achieves both fast response and stable output voltage.

AI summary

A power supply conversion device includes a voltage converter, a turned-off time detector, a turned-on time adjuster, and a slope signal adjuster. The voltage converter receiving an input voltage converts the input voltage according to a control signal to generate an output voltage. The turned-off time detector coupled to the voltage converter generates detection information by detecting a time length of the control signal in turned-off state. The turned-on time adjuster adjusts a time length of the control signal in turned-on state according to the detection information. The slope signal adjuster adjusts a rising rate of a switching signal on a switch of the voltage converter according to the detection information to generate a slope signal, generates a feedback signal according to the slope signal, and provides the feedback signal to the voltage converter.
