Therefore, AC-DC conversion circuit 10 can provide the first DC power supply FD at variable DC output voltage Vdc.AC-DC conversion circuit 10 The parallel connection of the side DC be coupled across the sides DC of multiple DC-DC conversion circuits 11.In this embodiment, DC-DC conversion circuit 11 Quantity be two, and it will be apparent to a skilled person that more than two DC-DC conversion circuits 11 can be applied.
Each of DC-DC conversion circuit 11 has the intermediate conversion to the second AC power supplies SA.Particularly, DC-DC turns Circuit 11 is changed with DC-AC grades, transformer and AC-DC grades, and the second AC power supplies SA is exported from DC-AC grades, is rendered as DC- Power flow in DC conversion circuit 11.DC-DC conversion circuit 11 is configured to receive the first DC power supply FD and in DC output voltage Udc Place's combination the second DC power supply SD output, this will be described in detail later.Each of DC-DC conversion circuit 11 includes having the The full-bridge DC-AC conversion circuit 110 (DC-AC grades) of two controllable power switch S21, S22, S23, S24, and full-bridge DC-AC turns The side DC for changing circuit 110 is coupled across the output end of AC-DC conversion circuit 10.DC-AC conversion circuit 110 is included in its side AC Both ends between the capacity cell C that is inserted into.In this embodiment, capacity cell C is coupled in series to DC-DC conversion circuit 11 The armature winding PW of transformer 111, and DC-AC conversion circuit 110 the side AC bridging connected in series link capacity cell C and The armature winding PW of transformer 111.Its multiple output for being configured to combine the DC-DC power source conversion from the first DC power supply and produce Raw second DC power supply, wherein each of multiple DC-DC power source conversions have through capacity cell into the second AC power supplies Between power supply convert, and implemented with full-bridge mode or half-bridge mode, so that multiple DC-DC power source conversions show multilevel voltage increasing Benefit.
Controller 12 is configured to generate of the first controllable power switch for switching on and off AC-DC conversion circuit 10 One control signal and the multiple second control signals of generation, each of the multiple second control signal is for switching on and off Second controllable power switch of the corresponding full-bridge DC-AC conversion circuit 110 of DC-DC conversion circuit 11.As a result, AC-DC turns The DC output voltage for changing circuit 10 can be adjusted by changing first control signal, and full-bridge DC-AC conversion circuit 110 AC output voltage can be adjusted by changing second control signal, and can also be can be adjusted and be transferred because of rectifier 112 The DC output voltage Udc of DC-DC conversion circuit 11 is adjusted.
Fig. 2A, Fig. 2 B and Fig. 2 C show the full-bridge mould of the full-bridge DC-AC conversion circuit of embodiment according to the present invention Transition between formula and half-bridge mode.Fig. 2A is shown with the circuit diagram of the full-bridge DC-AC conversion circuit of full-bridge mode operation.
As shown in Figure 2 A, under full-bridge mode, controller 12 can send second control signal, so as in a complementary fashion Switch the second controllable power switch S21 and S23 and the second controllable power switch S22 and S24 simultaneously.As a result, second is controllable Each of power switch S21, S23, S22 and S24 can be operated with the switching frequency of 50% duty ratio and 20kHz, such as Shown in Fig. 2 C.Under full-bridge mode, the second controllable power switch S21 to S24 can be with the fixation switching frequency of 20kHz and 50% Duty cycle operation.During transition, the second controllable power switch S21 and S22 continues to fix switching frequency and 50% duty Than operating so that output valve is remained aspiration level, and PWM modulation by the duty ratio of switch S23 from 50% be increased monotonically to 100% and the duty ratio of switch S24 is decreased to 0% from 50% in a complementary fashion.The electric current I arrow flowed in switch It indicates.Because switch S23 is permanently on and switch S24 is permanently disconnected, full-bridge DC-AC conversion circuit 110 is being opened during transition Continue in the case where the fixed frequency control for closing S21 and switch S22 with Hall-bridge mode operation.
As shown in Figure 2 B, under half-bridge mode, controller 12 can send second control signal so as in a complementary fashion Switch the second controllable power switch S21 and S22 of the first branch.In addition, each of they can with 50% duty ratio and The operation of 20kHz switching frequency, as shown in Figure 2 C.The second controllable power switch in the second controllable power switch in second branch One in S24 is continuously switched on, and another second controllable power switch S23 is continuously disconnected in second branch.However, other are synchronized Method is also possible.For example, the second controllable power switch S22 can be synchronized with S24 for connecting, the second controllable power switch S21 and S23 can be in turn-off time in the mid-ambles of turn-on time or the second controllable power switch S22 and S24 Mid-ambles.
In addition, full-bridge DC-AC conversion circuit 110 can operate under disconnection (OFF) mode, under Disconnected mode, pass through Its second all controllable power switch S21-S24 is disconnected to realize control, each switch is with 0% duty cycle operation.
Second controllable power switch S21-S24 of the circuit of Fig. 2A and Fig. 2 B blocking voltage and two in one direction A direction uploads electrical conduction current.In general, each of switch S21-S24 is implemented by second switch, which is to have instead The controllable one-way electric power semiconductor switch of uncontrolled unidirectional current-carrying semiconductor in parallel, such as IGBT and MOSFET, knot Structure includes the inverse parallel body diode for allowing bi-directional current flow.Therefore, full-bridge DC-AC conversion circuit 110 can be with full-bridge mould Formula or half-bridge mode operation, depending on the second control signal provided by controller 12.For from half-bridge mode to full-bridge mode Transition, switch S23 and switch the S24 quilt on the direction substantially opposite with the direction of the transition from full-bridge mode to half-bridge mode Modulation, that is, the duty ratio of switch S23 is monotonously decreased to 50% from 100% (that is, being continuously switched on), meanwhile, switch S24's accounts for Sky increases than in a complementary fashion from 0% (that is, continuous disconnect).
From the point of view of static analysis, under full-bridge mode, the average voltage of capacity cell C is zero.Accordingly, in half-bridge mode Under, the average voltage of capacity cell is Vdc/2.In this embodiment, electric when using two DC-DC to convert in a system When road 11, five kinds of different operation modes can be obtained.Five kinds of different operation modes are full syntype, complete half mode, half half Mode, entirely disconnected mode and half disconnected mode.When two DC-DC conversion circuits 11 are in full-bridge mould to fix switching frequency and duty ratio When formula operates, converter has combined voltage gain, M=1.Similarly, for the half-bridge mould of fixed switching frequency and duty ratio Formula, voltage gain 0.5.When it is in Disconnected mode, voltage gain 0.Therefore, when the input of DC-DC conversion circuit 11 The output series coupled of the output dc voltage Vdc of bridging coupling AC-DC conversion circuit 10 and DC-DC conversion circuit 11 in parallel When, 4 kinds of possible step voltage gains 2,1.5,1 and 0.5 can be obtained, the multilevel voltage gain of DC-DC conversion circuit 11 is showed. Since DC-DC conversion circuit 11 has 4 fix level voltage gains, DC output voltage is adjusted by changing DC input voltage Section, which is the output voltage of AC-DC conversion circuit 10.
In this embodiment, controller 12 can be by switching the first controllable power switch simultaneously in a complementary fashion S11 and S13 and the first controllable power switch S12 and S14 exports to adjust the slave AC-DC conversion circuit 10 in DC voltage range The first DC power supply FD D/C voltage Vdc, each switch is with the duty cycle operation of range from 0% to 100%.Alternatively, false Determine AC-DC conversion circuit 10 and use half-bridge topology, it will be apparent to a skilled person that can be by suitably controlling it The duty ratio of switch adjusts its output dc voltage Vdc.
The voltage that the DC voltage range of AC-DC conversion circuit 10 is set to two continuous grades of covering voltage gain increases Add.Under the control of the controller 12, power supply conversion is adjusted by AC-DC conversion circuit 10, tunes its DC output voltage Vdc, the DC Thus output voltage Vdc changes in relatively small range.It is fed to DC- to output-parallel from AC-DC conversion circuit 10 The input of DC conversion circuit 11 is converted by them and with fixing switching frequency and duty cycle operation in their serial chain respectively The output end output connect.The voltage gain of each DC-DC conversion circuit 11 according to full-bridge mode, half-bridge mode or Disconnected mode and Be it is transformable, allow the output voltage of DC-DC conversion circuit 11 between it with relatively large interval discrete electrical It puts down and changes, show various voltage gains 0.5,1,1.5 and 2.It is assumed that AC-DC conversion circuit 10 is input to DC-DC conversion The DC output voltage Vdc of circuit 11 keeps constant, and the gap between two continuous voltage gains is 0.5, this makes AC-DC The output dc voltage Vo of converter 1 is discrete.As the DC output voltage Vdc of above method, AC-DC conversion circuit 10 can be by changing Become its duty ratio to adjust, and therefore it is variable in DC voltage range [Vdc_1, Vdc_2], and two are held The distribution of point, the output dc voltage Vo of AC-DC converter 1 is as shown in Table I:
Table I
It will be understood by those skilled in the art that AC-DC conversion circuit 10 can for example by change its switch duty ratio and It is adjusted by controller 12, is increased continuously to supply from more low side point Vdc_1 to the DC output voltage Vdc of more high point Vdc_2.Cause This, two adjacent discrete levels, such as the electricity between HO and HH, between HH and FH, between FO and FH and between FH and FF Pressure gap, which can continuously bridge the DC output voltage Vdc of AC-DC conversion circuit 10 from Vdc_1, is tuned to Vdc_2, as long as Vdc_2-Vdc_1 is greater than or equal to 0.5*Vdc_1.
By possessing AC-DC converter according to the present invention, just without complicated control, this help to reduce cost and It is easy to implement.When far from design point operation DC-DC conversion circuit, its efficiency be may be degraded, and be used especially for those soft The circuit of switching technique.The DC-DC conversion circuit of this Sofe Switch is for example including resonant inductance element L, resonant inductance element L With capacity cell C series coupled so that full-bridge DC-AC conversion circuit is all operated under full-bridge mode and half-bridge mode with ZVS.Often The switching frequency of a LLC converter is input voltage vin, output voltage Vo and the function for exporting electric current.In general, switching frequency was both Increase the reduction also with output voltage and output electric current with the increase of input voltage and increases.As a result, will generate more More heats, and stronger/bigger cooling system is needed, this leads to higher cost.DC-DC conversion electricity according to the present invention Road always operates at the design point with fixed switching frequency and constant duty ratio, to ensure relatively low loss and to ensure Relatively easily implement between different output voltages and electric current.For example, when DC-DC conversion circuit is LLC resonance topological, DC-DC conversion circuit will switch near its resonance frequency always, switching loss can be kept minimum in entire wide output area Change.By the way that converter is changed into half-bridge configuration mode from full bridge configuration mode, the voltage gain of converter can reduce half, Vice versa.
Therefore, it is possible to reduce the demand to cooling system.In short, the solution proposed may be implemented to compare the prior art The lower cost of solution and higher efficiency.For needing the electric vehicle DC of the application of opposite wide-voltage range such as now Quick charger, in order to keep power-efficient high in wide-voltage range, multiple DC-DC conversion circuits are in its input terminal parallel connection chain It connects, and any DC-DC conversion circuit requires to undertake the part responsibility of voltage adjusting, meanwhile, two DC-DC conversion circuits are all It is operated at its design point, to ensure high efficiency.
In addition, when two DC-DC conversion circuits are switched with 90 degree of phase shifts, the high-frequency output voltage ripple of output terminal It can be substantially reduced.Because the size very little of high fdrequency component can reduce the size and cost of output filter.
Although having been based on some preferred embodiments, invention has been described, those skilled in the art should be managed Solution, those embodiments should not limit the scope of the present invention absolutely.It is right in the case where not departing from spirit and concept of the invention Any change and modification of embodiment all should within the understanding of technical staff that this field has general knowledge and technology, And it therefore falls within the scope of the present invention defined by the appended claims.
