Detailed description of the invention
The present invention includes the auxiliary power circuit in cascaded inverters and to cascade power switched conversion The method that control in device and/or other circuit are powered, wherein from the of cascade switchover power converter Two (or rear) level provides accessory power supply.Concatenated power transducer can be that rear portion has DC-DC to turn The power factor corrector (power factor corrector, PFC) of parallel operation level.In cascaded inverters Second (or rear) level has transfers pattern.Transfers pattern can provide enough energy Charging to the output of accessory power supply, this can enter at the auxiliary winding of one of the magnet assembly of the second level OK.Transfers pattern generally has low than switching rate and the pulse width of the properly functioning middle second level Switching rate much and relatively low pulse width, so that do not disturb during transfers operational mode The load being connected with the output of cascaded inverters, or not to this load supplying.
There is the auxiliary power circuit of optional operational mode for changing the distinctive output of accessory power supply/defeated Enter voltage, to compensate the change of second level input voltage.Such as, before PFC input stage is run, Input voltage peak can be obtained between the intermediate node two level interconnected, and can obtain after the first order is run Peak-to-peak voltage, thus makes the voltage obtained by auxiliary winding that the change of 2: 1 occurs.Accessory power supply Operational mode can be used for compensating this change and other changes, and can run in lag feedback structure, Selectable modes in this configuration, to regulate accessory power supply output voltage.
Fig. 1 shows the cascade switchover power converter 8 described in the embodiment of the present invention.Switch controller 10 provide control signal, to control first order PFC14 and second level dc-dc 15 In the switching device that connected by intermediate node.Capacitor CLINKKeep intermediate node voltage, electric capacity Device CRECTThe input voltage provided to PFC14 from commutator 12, this commutator 12 are provided By electromagnetic interference (electromagnetic interference, EMI) wave filter 11 and AC electricity Line of force source 17 couples.In illumination applications, the output of dc-dc 15 is in listed enforcement For powering to LED in example.But, the technology of the present invention can be in other be applied In concatenated power transducer and the cascade construction in addition to PFC/DC-DC.
Dc-dc 15 includes accessory power supply 16, and this accessory power supply 16 is to controller 10 The electric power run needed for internal circuit is provided, and operation PFC14 and dc-dc are provided Door needed for switching device in 15 drives electric current.Resistor R can be passed throughS1With resistor RS2Obtain Obtain electric power, until accessory power supply 16 can produce at least some circuit being enough in operation controller 10 Voltage.Can be from the auxiliary winding provided by the magnetic couplings element of dc-dc 15 Aux runs accessory power supply 16.Therefore, after dc-dc 15 has started to switching, auxiliary Winding aux is helped only to produce output voltage VAUX.Operation with cascade switchover power converter 8 is suitable Sequence is similar to, and the conventional operation order of typical case's cascaded inverters is as follows: once capacitor CRECTBetween two Voltage reach predetermined threshold voltage, begin to run PFC14;Then, at capacitor CLINKTwo Between voltage VLINK(by voltage V after having reached steady-state valueLINKReach another predetermined threshold voltage Instruction), bring into operation dc-dc 15.But, according to embodiments of the invention, cascade Switchover power converter 8 provides a kind of transfers pattern, runs at PFC14 in this mode While or optional before, dc-dc 15 can be started.
Fig. 2 shows the details of Fig. 1 cascade switchover power converter 8.Induction apparatus L1 and cutting Changing transistor N1 and provide boosting structure PFC, this boosting structure PFC can be by capacitor CLINK Charge to the voltage of about 400VDC, thus at capacitor CRECTTwo between formed 360VDC Input voltage.The door of transistor N1 is controlled by controller 10, so that PFC14 Input impedance is generally without idle component, i.e. PFC14 is rendered as AC electric power line source 17 liang Between resistance.Before starting, owing to diode D1 is used as peak detector, at AC electric power Behind first input peak of line source 17, at capacitor CLINKTwo between rectification type AC electric power occurs The peak pressure of line source 17.Controller 10 can run dc-dc under transfers pattern 15, and seldom switch and there is burst pulse, to produce accessory power supply output voltage VAUX, as hereafter Described.
Dc-dc 15 is a kind of push-pull type forward converter, and it is the two of transformator T1 Switching transistor N2 and N3 successively between the two of decile armature winding, produces two pole power waveforms.? At the secondary windings of transformator T1, two pole power waveforms are carried out whole by diode D2 and D3 Stream, and combined capacitor C by induction apparatus L2OUTIt is filtered.As it has been described above, transformation Device T1 also powers to auxiliary winding aux.Resistor RISPressure is provided to switch controller 10 Fall.Resistor RISPressure drop between two and the electric current switched by transistor N2 or transistor N3 Proportional, current-mode feedback is thus provided, the electric current that instruction is applied by load, such as in Fig. 1 LED.
In an operation example, before switching any switching transistor N1-N3, due to at electricity The rectified signal occurred between the two of container CRECT carries out blob detection, at capacitor CLINKTwo between The voltage (peak pressure of typical case's AC electric power line source) of about 160VDC can be obtained.Upon resistance Device RS1With resistor RS2The voltage obtained be enough to operation controller, and that controller is initial Changing, controller 10 begins to run PFC14, to boost and to regulate at capacitor CLINKBetween two Voltage.Controller 10 also begins to switch with the very low-repetition-frequency of such as 20kHz in a short time Transistor N2 and N3 in dc-dc 15;Although this is not enough in a short time A large amount of electric current (e.g., less than the 5% of nominal current) is provided to pass through LED, but The electric current that can provide enough passes through the auxiliary winding aux of transformator T1, defeated to produce accessory power supply Go out voltage VAUX.Due to low rate switching transistor N2 and N3, the electricity of accessory power supply 16 Stream requires also below the requirement during the conventional handover operation of dc-dc 15.Once electricity Pressure VLINKThe most fully raising, dc-dc 15 is just placed in conventional fortune by controller 10 Row mode.Owing to starting the output just multiplication of switching, PFC15 once transistor N1, thus one Denier voltage VLINKHaving risen to its full voltage value, the voltage available between auxiliary winding aux two is the most about For the twice of voltage during starting transfers pattern.According to the pattern choosing provided by controller 10 Select signal mode, or by the internal detection of model selection condition hereinafter described, now can change auxiliary The operational mode of power supply 16.
Although aforesaid operations order is used for starting, in the application of the most described LED illumination application, When LED completely closes (this can be carried out according to duty cycle in dimmed period), Or when 100% is dimmed, output can be disabled by stopping switching dc-dc 15, and PFC14 continues regulation voltage VLINK.Therefore, for the output of accessory power supply 16 is maintained electricity Pressure VAUX, the transfers pattern of dc-dc 15 can be again introduced into, and by luminescence A small amount of electric current that diode (LED) produces will not interfere with dimmed operation.
Assume to flow to controller 10 before PFC14 starts and after PFC14 starts Voltage be identical, starting or leave dimmed pattern and return after routine operation, if auxiliary Power supply 16 only includes the linear regulating circuit of such as Zener diode, the then merit in accessory power supply 16 Consumption is by about identical with the power flowing to controller 10.Therefore, the accessory power supply in described embodiment 16 include the doubler with above-mentioned optional operational mode.Accessory power supply 16 is under an operational mode The size of the DC output produced is essentially equal to available peak-to-peak voltage between auxiliary winding aux two Half, under another operational mode produce DC output size be essentially equal to auxiliary around The meansigma methods of group two voltage available peak values of aux.Under two kinds of operational modes, by circuit pressure drop The virtual voltage exporting applying at accessory power supply 16 can be reduced.During starting and in control Before device 10 starts the conventional operation of dc-dc 15, can be by controller by using The 10 control signal patterns providing or can determining in accessory power supply 16, can be by accessory power supply 16 It is placed under multiplexer pattern, as mentioned below.At PFC14 boosting capacitor CLINKBetween two Voltage available after, accessory power supply 16 or be placed under non-multiplexer pattern, or in delayed regulation Run under pattern, as mentioned below.

Negative under the multiplexer operational mode of accessory power supply 16, between auxiliary winding aux two During voltage, diode D13 turn on, and capacitor C1 to auxiliary winding aux two between can Charge with voltage negative peak, thus reduce the pressure drop of diode D13, and diode D12 is in this phase Period is reverse biased.During next between auxiliary winding aux two can use positive phase voltage, two poles Pipe D13 is reverse biased, and diode D12 conducting.At auxiliary winding aux during positive Voltage between two is added with voltage on the capacitor cl during front negative, causes " voltage phase Add " phenomenon.The voltage-multiplier circuit realized by accessory power supply 16 in the first operating mode is generally claimed For doubler;This is real in the application, because the push-pull type of transistor N2 and N3 Run and make to assist the voltage negative between winding aux two and positive pulse substantially equal.
Under the second operational mode of accessory power supply 16, transistor N10 is deactivated, and diode D11-D14 is used as full wave bridge rectifier, and this commutator is to the available AC between auxiliary winding aux two Coupled voltages (E such as the coupling carried out by capacitor C1) carries out rectification.Due to auxiliary winding Aux is AC coupling, diode D11-D14 the DC between the input of the bridge commutator formed Current potential can with non-zero, and assume may occur in which between the two of capacitor C1 auxiliary winding aux two between can Poor with the positive and negative peak of voltage.Therefore, diode D11-D14 the output of the bridge commutator formed Can provide positive and negative peak pressure, this bridge commutator provides the defeated of accessory power supply 16 in the second operating mode Go out, and this output is theoretically the half of the voltage produced in the first operating mode;But due to two poles Pipe and other circuit pressure drops, two output voltages will differ from above-mentioned output voltage.
As it has been described above, after PFC14 runs or when dc-dc 15 enters routine During operational mode, controller 10 can signal to accessory power supply 16, with away from doubler mould Formula.Optional both operational modes of accessory power supply 16 are combined formation actuator.In Fig. 3 Accessory power supply 16 illustrate this kind of actuator.By comparing accessory power supply output voltage VAUX With threshold voltage VTH, the hysteresis comparator K1 in control circuit 24 can control transistor The door of N10, and generally by this threshold voltage VTHIt is set as running with second in the first operational mode The accessory power supply output voltage V of patternAUXBetween any voltage.By defeated according to accessory power supply Go out voltage VAUXSize control accessory power supply operational mode, described operation can be by accessory power supply Output voltage VAUXIt is adjusted to aspiration level.
