Embodiment
Basic fundamental thought of the present invention is when the load of heterogeneous switched power supply is relative underloading; Just do not need all different power levels all during conducting; According to subtracting the phase signal, control PWM signal is closed the power stage that need close with progressive mode; Avoid causing the bust of output voltage, and then influence system's normal running.
See also Fig. 3, show an embodiment of basic framework of the present invention.Heterogeneous switched power supply and prior art as shown in the figure are compared; Present embodiment provides the slow control circuit (softshutdown control circuit) 15 that ends; With second mutually PWM controller 21 couple; Slow only control circuit 15 receives and subtracts the phase signal, and subtracts the slow only controlling signal of news generation mutually according to this; The second phase PWM controller 21 produces the second phase PWM signal PWM2 according to the back coupling signal, and according to the slow controlling signal of ending, directly or indirectly reduces the work ratio of the second phase PWM signal PWM2 gradually, and is extremely zero in order to the output current I2 that progressively reduces by the second phase power stage 22.Wherein, this slow only controlling signal reduces the details of the work ratio of the second phase PWM signal PWM2 gradually, will detail in the back literary composition.
Fig. 4 A-4E contrast shows the difference of the present invention and prior art; Wherein Fig. 4 A-4B shows the power stage output current of prior art and the waveform sketch map of output voltage; Fig. 4 C-4D shows the power stage output current of the embodiment of the invention and the waveform sketch map of output voltage, and Fig. 4 E is then for subtracting the waveform sketch map of phase signal.See also Fig. 4 A-4B and the prior art of consulting Fig. 1 simultaneously, wherein the first phase power stage 12 with second mutually power stage 22 for example be the synchronous buck type switched power supply shown in Fig. 2 A.When time t1, subtract the phase signal and produce the signal that the second phase power stage 22 is closed, see also Fig. 4 A; This moment the second phase power stage 22 directly close, output current I2 stop supplies immediately, though and the first phase power stage 12 increases the work ratio; But because the loop needs the reaction time; Therefore the output current I1 of the first phase power stage 12 can't catch up with required output current at once, and causes as among Fig. 4 B the bust of output voltage V out.
Then see also Fig. 4 C-4D, please consult Fig. 3 embodiments of the invention simultaneously, wherein the first phase power stage 12 with second mutually power stage 22 for example also be the synchronous buck type switched power supply shown in Fig. 2 A.When time t1; Subtract the phase signal and produce the signal that the second phase power stage 22 is closed, as shown in Figure 3, subtract the slow control circuit 15 that ends of phase signal input; Slow slow controlling signal to the second phase PWM controller 21 that ends of control circuit 15 outputs that ends; Be not directly to close the second phase PWM signal PWM2 that the second phase PWM controller 21 is produced, but, the second phase PWM signal PWM2 closed gradually (that is reducing its work gradually) with progressive mode than extremely zero.See also Fig. 4 C, when t1, the output current I2 in the second phase power stage 22 is according to the slow controlling signal of ending; Beginning reduces gradually; The output current I1 of the first phase power stage 12 then catch up with required output current gradually, and Fig. 4 D is consulted in contrast, and therefore output voltage V out does not have the phenomenon of bust.
Fig. 5 illustrates the slow more specifically embodiment that controlling signal reduces the work ratio of the second phase PWM signal PWM2 gradually that ends.As shown in Figure 5; The first phase PWM controller 11 comprises the first slope signal generating circuit 111, produces first slope signal Ramp1 input and adds way circuit 112, adds the current-sharing signal that way circuit 112 totallings, first slope signal Ramp1 and flow equalizing circuit 14 are produced; Produce first and add overall result; Add overall result with first and import first comparator, 113, the first comparators 113 and relatively first add the back coupling signal that overall result and feedback circuit 13 are produced, produce the first phase PWM signal PWM1.The second phase PWM controller 21 comprises the second slope signal generating circuit 211; Produce second slope signal Ramp2 input and add way circuit 212; Add current-sharing signal that the way circuit 212 totallings second slope signal Ramp2, flow equalizing circuit 14 produced and slow and end the slow controlling signal of ending that control circuit 15 is produced; Produce second and add overall result and import second comparator, 213, the second comparators 213 and relatively second add the back coupling signal that overall result and feedback circuit 13 are produced, produce the second phase PWM signal PWM2.Wherein, the slow controlling signal of ending for example can be one by after subtracting the phase signal and triggering, in time and the slope signal that rises, or other various cumulative signals, as shown in Figure 6.Because slow to end signal be cumulative signal, make second to add overall result and increase lentamente, so the work ratio of the second phase PWM signal PWM2 can gradually reduce, and reach the purpose of progressively closing the second phase power stage 22.When the output current convergence of the second phase power stage 22 is zero, just the second phase PWM controller 21 cuts out, and stop the second slope signal Ramp2, to save energy consumption.
Various cumulative signal shown in Figure 6, as be voltage signal, can by with fixing or variable current source to electric capacity continuously or intermittent charge reach, as be current signal, then can reach by the electric current that variable current source produced.
Fig. 7 shows slow another embodiment more specifically that ends work ratio that controlling signal reduces by the second phase PWM signal PWM2 gradually.Generally speaking; Be typically provided with upper current limit protection (Over-Current Protection in each phase PWM controller 11 and 21; OCP); Its circuit exemplary embodiment is that the signal relevant with this phase output current (first signal or second signal) compared with a preset upper current limit reference value, and controls the work ratio of power transistor in this phase power stage, makes the output current of this phase be no more than preset upper current limit value.Therefore; In the second phase PWM controller 21, be provided with (other circuit in the second phase PWM controller 21 omits to simplify drawing) under the situation of upper current limit protective circuit 215; Shown in this figure; Can make the second phase PWM controller 21 receive the slow slow controlling signal of ending that control circuit 15 is produced of ending, as the reference signal REFoc of upper current limit protective circuit 215 in the second phase PWM controller 21, and make reference signal REFoc for signal decrescence (after subtracting the triggering of phase signal; Descend in time; Be for example and without limitation to Fig. 8 and lift each example), so can reduce by the work ratio of the second phase PWM signal PWM2 gradually, progressively the output current I2 of the second phase power stage 22 is reduced to and levels off to zero.
Various decrescence signals shown in Figure 8, as be voltage signal, can by with fixing or variable current source to electric capacity continuously or intermittent discharge reach, as be current signal, then can deduct the electric current that variable current source produces and reach by fixed current.
Fig. 9 shows another embodiment of basic framework of the present invention.Heterogeneous switched power supply as shown in the figure and embodiment shown in Figure 3 compare; Present embodiment has a plurality of second phase PWM controllers 21; Produce a plurality of second phase PWM signal PWM2 according to the back coupling signal; And, directly or indirectly reduce the work ratio of the second phase PWM signal PWM2 that need close gradually according to the slow controlling signal of ending, output current to zero in order to what progressively reduce the second phase power stage 22 that need close.
Below to preferred embodiment the present invention being described, is the above, be merely to make those skilled in the art be easy to understand content of the present invention, and be not to be used for limiting interest field of the present invention.Under same spirit of the present invention, those skilled in the art can think and various equivalence changes.For example, shown in each embodiment circuit, can insert the element that does not influence the main meaning of signal, like other switch etc.; The represented meaning of the high low level of digital signal can be exchanged, and for example subtracts the phase signal and can change into the high levels of signal and representing; Positive and negative can the exchange of input of comparator 113,213 etc. for example only needs the signal processing mode of corresponding correction circuit to get final product again; Again for example; Among Fig. 5 embodiment, also can change the output addition that ends controlling signal and feedback circuit 13 with slow, but not (this moment, the slow controlling signal of ending can be decrescence signal with the second slope signal Ramp2 addition; Or with the output of feedback circuit 13 and negative slow only controlling signal addition), or the like.All this kind all can teaching according to the present invention be analogized and gets, and therefore, protection scope of the present invention should contain above-mentioned and other all equivalences change.
