Control circuit 150 can arrange by end points GD the control end voltage of current switch 130, and the electric current I t of 130 conductings of current switch can be set, that is the electric current of transformer 110 primary side institutes conducting is set.Therefore, control circuit 150 can arrange by the electric current of transformer 110 primary side institutes conducting is set the electric current of transformer 110 secondary side institute sensings, and makes 100 couples of load Z of power supply changeover device export required power supply output signal Vout and current output signal Iout.
In the present embodiment, the electric current I t of 130 conductings of current switch is by meeting generation current sensing signal Vcs after resistance R cs, and control circuit 150 can be estimated by end points CS the current value of transformer 110 primary side institutes conducting.
In addition, the voltage of 170 sensings of bias winding, after the dividing potential drop of resistance R 1 and R2, can produce feedback signal Vfb in the end points FB of control circuit 150.For example, in one embodiment, can the coil number of bias winding 170 and the coil number of transformer 110 secondary sides be set to identical, therefore transformer 110 secondary sides and bias winding 170 can produce identical in fact voltage, the feedback signal Vfb that control circuit 150 can provide by bias winding 170 and resistance R 1 and R2 and estimate institute's energy requirement of transformer 110 secondary sides.

Fig. 2 is the functional block diagram after an embodiment of the control circuit 150 of Fig. 1 simplifies, and control circuit 150 comprises that feedback signal comparison circuit 210, frequency signal produce circuit 230, current peak arranges circuit 250 and signal processing circuit 270.In the present embodiment, control circuit 150 can produce pulse frequency modulated (pulse frequency modulation) signal and be sent to the control end of current switch 130, so that the conducting state of current switch 130 to be set.
Control circuit 150 is by end points FB receiving feedback signals Vfb, and feedback signal comparison circuit 210 can compare feedback signal Vfb and reference voltage Vref, to produce comparison signal Vcomp.
Frequency signal produces circuit 230 can produce frequency signal Vfreq accordingly according to comparison signal Vcomp, and exports respectively frequency signal Vfreq to current threshold generation circuit 250 and signal processing circuit 270.For example, in the present embodiment, frequency signal produces circuit 230 and adopts the mode of voltage control oscillating circuit (voltage controlled oscillator) to implement, frequency signal produces circuit 230 can arrange the frequency of frequency signal Vfreq according to the numerical value of comparison signal Vcomp, to produce the frequency signal Vfreq of periodic square wave.
Current peak arranges circuit 250 and comprises threshold value generation circuit 251 and current sensor comparison circuit 253, threshold value produces circuit 251 and understands according to frequency signal Vfreq generation current threshold value Vth accordingly, and current sensor comparison circuit 253 can compare the current sensing signal Vcs being received by CS end points and current threshold Vth, to produce reset signal Vreset.
Signal processing circuit 270 can produce control signal Vpfm according to frequency signal Vfreq and reset signal Vreset, so that the conducting state of current switch 130 to be set.In the embodiment of Fig. 2, signal processing circuit 270 comprises flip-flop (flip flop) 271, the setting of flip-flop 271 (set) end S is used for connecing frequency collection of letters Vfreq, the replacement of flip-flop 271 (reset) end R is for receiving reset signal Vreset, the output Q of flip-flop 271 can be according to frequency signal Vfreq and reset signal Vreset and is produced control signal Vpfm, so that the conducting state of current switch 130 to be set.
Fig. 3 is the sequential chart after an embodiment of control circuit 150 the frequency signal Vfreq, the reset signal Vreset that produce and control signal Vpfm simplifies.
In the embodiments of figure 3, control circuit 150 is by end points FB receiving feedback signals Vfb, and feedback signal comparison circuit 210 can compare feedback signal Vfb and reference voltage Vref, to produce comparison signal Vcomp.Frequency signal produces circuit 230 can produce frequency signal Vfreq accordingly according to comparison signal Vcomp, in the present embodiment, frequency signal Vfreq is periodic square wave, and frequency signal generation circuit 230 is understood according to comparison signal Vcomp the frequency of the signal Vfreq that adjusts frequency accordingly, when comparison signal Vcomp raises, frequency signal produces the frequency of circuit 230 meeting rising frequency signal Vfreq, when comparison signal Vcomp reduces, frequency signal produces the frequency that circuit 230 can reduce frequency signal Vfreq.In addition the threshold value that, current peak arranges circuit 250 produce circuit 251 can be according to frequency signal Vfreq generation current threshold value Vth accordingly.
When the time of Fig. 3 S1, frequency signal Vfreq becomes high potential from electronegative potential, when the setting end S of the flip-flop 271 of signal processing circuit 270 receives the frequency signal Vfreq of high potential, the control signal Vpfm producing in output Q also can become high potential, and On current switch 130.After current switch 130 conductings, the electric current I t of institute's conducting can increase gradually, and the current sensing signal Vcs that the electric current I t that makes current switch 130 conductings produces after by resistance R cs also increases gradually.
When the time of Fig. 3 S2, current sensing signal Vcs is more than or equal to current threshold Vth, after current peak arranges 253 couples of current sensing signal Vcs of current sensor comparison circuit of circuit 250 and current threshold Vth and compares, can produce the reset signal Vreset of high potential.When the replacement end R of flip-flop 271 receives the reset signal Vreset of high potential, the control signal Vpfm producing in output Q also can become electronegative potential, and makes current switch 130 not conductings.
Therefore, control circuit 150 just can above-mentioned mode produce the control signal Vpfm of appropriate frequency, and transmits required energy to load Z.For example, when the period of Fig. 3 S1~S3, control circuit 150 can produce the control signal Vpfm that frequency is F1.And after time S4, control circuit 150 can be lower frequency F2 by the set of frequency of control signal Vpfm, so that lower energy output to be provided.
One embodiment of the frequency of Fig. 4 current threshold Vth that to be control circuit 150 produce when different load state and frequency signal Vfreq, Fig. 5 is the sequential chart after an embodiment of the current sensing signal Vcs that produces after by resistance R cs of the electric current I t of 130 conductings of current switch simplifies, and below will with Fig. 4 and 5, further illustrate the function mode of control circuit 150.In the present embodiment, power supply changeover device 100 can be exported fixing in fact Voltage-output signal Vout, the energy of exporting due to power supply changeover device 100 equals Voltage-output signal Vout and is multiplied by current output signal Iout, therefore can utilize the signals such as electric current I t of current output signal Iout, feedback signal Vfb and/or 130 conductings of current switch as the estimated value of load state.
When the current output signal Iout of 100 wish outputs of power supply changeover device is greater than the first load threshold Lth1 in Fig. 4, the load value that represents load Z is greater than the first preset value, control circuit 150 can be set to fix in fact by Voltage-output signal Vout, and along with the increase of load value, increase the frequency of control signal Vpfm, to increase current output signal Iout.Now, threshold value produces circuit 251 and current threshold Vth can be able to be set to the first current value I 1.
For example, in the embodiment of Fig. 5, power supply changeover device 100 is greater than the first load threshold Lth1 in Fig. 4 in the current output signal Iout of period T1 time institute wish output, control circuit 150 can produce the control signal Vpfm that frequency is F1 when period T1, and threshold value generation circuit 251 can be set to the first current value I 1 by current threshold Vth.Control circuit 150 can produce the control signal Vpfm that frequency is F1, and with intermittent On current switch 130, and current threshold Vth is set to the first current value I 1 with 130 On current It of Limited Current switch.
When period T2, it is lower to the energy of load Z that power supply changeover device 100 must provide, control circuit 150 can produce control signal Vpfm with lower frequency F2, with intermittent On current switch 130, and current threshold Vth is set to the first current value I 1 with 130 On current It of Limited Current switch.Therefore, control circuit 150 can produce according to the size of load the control signal Vpfm of appropriate frequency, with intermittent On current switch 130, and can export required current output signal Iout to load Z.
When power supply changeover device 100 wishs reduce power consumption, control circuit 150 can reduce by 130 On current It of current switches, current output signal Iout and other relevant current values, to reduce the energy that power supply changeover device 100 provided, reduces audio frequency noise.Therefore,, when the current output signal Iout of 150 wishs of control circuit output is between the first load threshold Lth1 of Fig. 4 and the second load threshold Lth2, represent that the load value of load Z is also between the first preset value and the second preset value.Control circuit 150 can be set to fix in fact by Voltage-output signal Vout, and can reduce frequency and the current threshold Vth of control signal Vpfm.When the current output signal Iout exporting when power supply changeover device 100 equals the second load threshold Lth2 in Fig. 4, threshold value produces circuit 251 can be set to the second current value I 2 by current threshold Vth, now the set of frequency of control signal Vpfm be more than or equal to the mankind audio range the upper bound (for example, 20KHz).Therefore,, when the operation frequency of power supply changeover device 100 enters the mankind's audio range, 130 On current It of current switch can be subject to the restriction of current threshold Vth, and can not produce too large audio frequency noise.
For example, in the embodiment of Fig. 5, when power supply changeover device 100 wishs reduce power consumption, control circuit 150 can reduce in period T3 the frequency of control signal Vpfm, and threshold value generation circuit 251 also can reduce current threshold Vth in period T3.Therefore, when the current output signal Iout of power supply changeover device 100 outputs equals the second load threshold Lth2, the frequency of control signal Vpfm is still more than or equal to the upper bound of the mankind's audio range, and threshold value generation circuit 251 can be set to the second current value I 2 with 130 On current It of Limited Current switch by current threshold Vth, when guaranteeing that the operation frequency of power supply changeover device 100 enters the mankind's audio range, can not produce too large audio frequency noise.
In the present embodiment, when low power consumption state, the current output signal Iout of 150 wish outputs of control circuit is less than the second load threshold Lth2 of Fig. 4, and the load value of load Z is less than the second preset value.Threshold value produces circuit 251 can be set to the second current value I 2 by current threshold Vth.Control circuit 150 can be set to fix in fact by Voltage-output signal Vout, and along with the reduction of load value, reduces the frequency of control signal Vpfm, to reduce current output signal Iout.As shown in the period T4 of Fig. 5, threshold value produces circuit 251 can be set to the second current value I 2 with 130 On current It of Limited Current switch by current threshold Vth, and the frequency of control signal Vpfm can further reduce according to demand, to avoid exporting too much energy, therefore can arrive the object of reaching energy savings.
The above embodiments adopt the power supply changeover device 100 of flyback framework to describe, and in other embodiment, power supply changeover device also can adopt the power supply changeover device of boost type power supply changeover device, buck power supply changeover device or other frameworks.

The electric current I t of 130 conductings of current switch is by meeting generation current sensing signal Vcs after resistance R cs, and control circuit 150 can be estimated by end points CS the current value of current switch institute conducting.Power supply output signal Vout passes through can produce feedback signal Vfb in the end points FB of control circuit 150 after resistance R 1 and R2.Capacitor C 1 and C2 respectively can for reducing or eliminate the high-frequency noise of power supply input signal Vin and power supply output signal Vout, and diode D can provide the functions such as rectification or protection to power supply output signal Vout.

In the embodiment of Fig. 4, when the current output signal Iout of 150 wishs of control circuit output is between the first load threshold Lth1 and the second load threshold Lth2, threshold value produces circuit 251 can reduce current threshold Vth linearly along with the reduction (or reduction of the load value of load Z) of current output signal Iout.In other embodiments, threshold value generation circuit 251 also can adopt other mode that current threshold Vth is set.For example, another embodiment of the frequency of Fig. 7 current threshold Vth that to be control circuit 150 produce when different load state and frequency signal Vfreq, in the embodiment of Fig. 7, when the current output signal Iout of 150 wishs of control circuit output is between the first load threshold Lth1 and the second load threshold Lth2, threshold value produces circuit 251 and can adopt stair-stepping mode to reduce current threshold Vth along with the reduction (or reduction of the load value of load Z) of current output signal Iout.
In the above-described embodiment, although some signal or function square only describe with the form of voltage or electric current, but person with usual knowledge in their respective areas should understand, the above embodiments and all can reach effect of the present invention by the suitable execution mode that converts suitable curtage to.For example, the electric current input that feedback signal comparison circuit 210 can adopt or the comparison circuit of voltage input, or also can adopt the amplifying circuit of electric current input or voltage input to implement.In other embodiments, current sensor comparison circuit 253 can adopt the comparison circuit of electric current input, and the electric current I t of 130 conductings of current switch and current threshold Vth (now can be set to current forms) are compared, and can omit resistance R cs.
