Embodiment
Fig. 3 is according to a power supply unit 90 of the invention process, the controller 80 among Fig. 4 illustration Fig. 3.Among Fig. 3 and Fig. 4, represent same or analogous element, device or signal, be known technology, do not add tired stating at this with label identical among Fig. 1,2 of known technology.Fig. 3 and 4 only is an embodiment, implements the present invention and must use same or analogous element, device or signal in Fig. 1 and 2.Interest field of the present invention should be read as restriction with claim.
Different with Fig. 1, among Fig. 3, be connected with between the test side SS of controller 80 and the detection resistance CS and adjust resistance FCS.Different with Fig. 2, among Fig. 4, controller 80 has current generator 82, and the adjustment electric current I is provided CS-OUT,, flow through and adjust resistance FCS and detect resistance CS by the test side.The controller 80 of Fig. 4 can be implemented with an integrated circuit, and it is connected with adjustment resistance FCS's, can pass through an IC bond (pin).
By control signal V GATE, the opening time of current generator 82 sense switches 72 (ON time) T ONOr responsibility cycle (Duty cycle) D, adjust electric current I to upgrade CS-OUT, wherein responsibility cycle D is opening time T ONDivided by whole switch periods.Adjust electric current I CS-OUTValue, when switch 72 was opened, big appointment maintained a constant definite value.Can provide a feedback mechanism in the current generator 82, electric current I is once adjusted in a switch periods change CS-OUT, make opening time T ONOr responsibility cycle D and adjustment electric current I CS-OUTRoughly be inverse ratio.For instance, 72 opening time of the switch in switch periods T ONOr responsibility cycle D just reduces the adjustment electric current I of next switch periods when becoming big CS-OUT
Upgrade and adjust electric current I CS-OUTUpgraded the first side winding L that flows through in the equivalence PInductive current I PLimits value I CS-LIMIT, it is for triggering the inductive current value of OCP.Please consult Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 together.The condition that comparator 78 is triggered is that the voltage of test side approximates peak value limit value V greatly CS-LIMIT, shown in following formula (1):
V CS-LIMIT=V FCS+V CS ....(1)
Wherein, V FCSWith V CSBeing respectively and adjusting resistance FCS and the cross-pressure that detects resistance CS, also is respectively an adjustment signal and a current detection signal.The voltage of test side approximately is exactly to adjust signal V FCSAnd current detection signal V CSVoltage add up.Suppose the resistance value R that adjusts resistance FCS FCSMuch larger than the resistance value R that detects resistance CS CS, then formula (1) can approximately be put in order and be:
V CS-LIMIT=I CS-OUT*R FCS+I CS-LIMIT*R CS
I CS-LIMIT=(V CS-LIMIT-I CS-OUT*R FCS)/R CS ...(2)
Suppose the adjustment electric current I CS-OUTWith opening time T ONInverse relation be
I CS-OUT*T ON=K ...(3)
Wherein K is a constant.Then formula (2) can become
I CS-LIMIT=(V CS-LIMIT/R CS)-K*R FCS/(R CS*T ON)...(4)
In the formula (4), K*R FCS/ (R CS* T ON) can be considered as the amount of deleting, in order to reduce peak value limit value V CS-LIMITCorresponding primary current limit value (V CS-LIMIT/ R CS), begin to limit inductive current I ahead of time PCurve C among Fig. 5 : LIMITIllustration limits value I in the formula (4) CS-LIMITWith opening time T ONRelation.Lines S among Fig. 5 1With S 2Two different input power supply V have also been shown INUnder inductive current I P, lines S wherein 1Pairing input power supply V INThan higher, so opening time T ONShorter, limits value I CS-LIMITBe smaller I P1As shown in Figure 5, as long as suitably choose R FCS, might be able to allow inductive current I PPeak value, not along with input power supply V INChange, be fixed on about primary current limit value V CS-LIMIT/ R CS, solved the problem that caused signal delay time, in addition, more than in the formula of being derived and the explanation, all can replace opening time T by responsibility cycle D ON
Fig. 6 illustration the current generator 82 among Fig. 4.Constant current source 86 provides decides electric current I SETTo electric capacity 89 chargings; Constant current source 88 provides decides electric current I EXP, only at control signal V GATEBe " 1 " in logic, when just switch 72 is opened, to electric capacity 89 discharges.When switch 72 is opened, control voltage V CTL, it has determined electric current I CTLWith decide electric current I EXP, be maintained a definite value haply.84 of current mirrors (currentmirror) make the adjustment electric current I CS-OUTApproximately with electric current I CTLEqual proportion.By circuit analysis as can be known, Fig. 6 has realized following formula (5).
I SET*T CYCLE=I EXP*T ON?...(5)
Wherein, T CYCLESwitch periods for switch 72.For instance, after a switch periods, if voltage V greater than the right side, is controlled in the left side of formula (5) CTLJust can rise, and then increase electric current I CTLAnd decide electric current I EXPControl voltage V CTLTo deciding electric current I EXPSuch feedback path can allow the left and right sides of formula (5) be tending towards about equally.Formula (5) can be derived the adjustment electric current I CS-OUTWith opening time T ONRelation, shown in following formula (6):
I CS-OUT=K 1*I CTL=K 2*I EXP=K 3*I SET*T CYCLE/T ON ...(6)
If represent that with responsibility cycle D formula (6) can be rewritten as:
I CS-OUT=K 3*I SET/D ...(7)
Wherein, decide electric current I SETWith T CYCLEWhen being definite value, significantly, adjust electric current I CS-OUTJust with opening time T ONOr responsibility cycle D approximately is inversely proportional to.
Adjust electric current I CS-OUTShould be to take place, when just power supply unit is in heavy duty, just need to produce at OCP.So transduction comparator GM can be used as a control unit, by detecting compensating signal V COM, whether decision produces the adjustment electric current I CS-OUTIn Fig. 6, as compensating signal V CIMBe lower than default value V REFThe time, can be considered as underloading or no-load, adjust electric current I CS-OUTWill stop, becoming 0, so limits value I CS-LIMITJust can not be subjected to opening time T ONOr the variation of responsibility cycle D and influencing.
Among the embodiment of Fig. 4, by triggering restriction inductive current I ahead of time P, attempt solving signal delay time the problem that may cause.System manufacturer can determine the effect that it may reach by selecting a suitable external adjustment resistance FCS.
Though the present invention is an example with the SMPS of a flyback framework, the present invention also goes for similarly SMPS such as step-down power converter, booster power transducer.
The above only is preferred embodiment of the present invention, and all equalizations of being done according to claim scope of the present invention change and modify, and all should belong to covering scope of the present invention.
