Description

Driving circuit, driving method thereof and electronic ballast
Technical Field
The present disclosure relates to electronic ballasts, and particularly to a driving circuit, a driving method thereof, and an electronic ballast.
Background
In a conventional HID (High intensity Discharge, electronic ballast), a relatively common input voltage range is generally a single-phase alternating current 90Vac to 265Vac, and under such an input voltage condition, a relatively mature circuit scheme of the HID is generally as follows: the alternating voltage is converted into stable direct current through the boost power factor correction circuit, and then converted into proper alternating voltage and current through the inverter circuit to drive the HID lamp. The circuit scheme is simple and practical and has high cost performance.
However, when the electronic ballast application needs to be compatible with north american industrial power, the input power grid types include five types of 240V/277V/347V/400V/480V, and the input voltage range becomes 180Vac to 528Vac by considering the voltage fluctuation of the power grid, and the adoption of the circuit scheme is obviously not suitable. According to the current technical scheme, if the normal function of the electronic ballast is to be realized, two schemes are provided at present, the first scheme is to add a first-stage voltage reduction circuit on the basis of the circuit scheme, the high-voltage single-phase alternating current input is firstly converted into high-voltage direct current voltage (above 780V) through a boost power factor correction circuit, the high-voltage direct current voltage is converted into medium-low voltage direct current voltage through the first-stage voltage reduction circuit, and finally the medium-low voltage direct current voltage is converted into proper alternating current voltage and current through an inverter circuit to drive the HID lamp. The second is that the single-phase high-voltage AC input is firstly converted into high-voltage DC voltage through a boost power factor correction circuit, then the high-voltage DC voltage is directly used as the input of an inverter circuit, and the inverter circuit converts the high-voltage DC voltage into proper AC voltage and current for driving the HID lamp.
The power factor correction circuits of the two prior art schemes both adopt a boost power factor correction circuit, and the direct current voltage output by the boost power factor correction circuit must be higher than the input voltage, so when the input is a wide range alternating current voltage 180 Vac-528 Vac, the output direct current voltage must be more than 780V, so that two series connection modes are required to be adopted for the filter capacitors on the bus, and the cost is increased.
In addition, in the first scheme, a first-stage voltage reduction circuit is added to reduce the voltage of a direct current bus above 780V, and then the voltage is used as the input of an inverter circuit, at this time, electric energy needs to be converted through three stages of power conversion, namely a power factor correction circuit, the voltage reduction circuit and the inverter circuit, the number of stages of electric energy conversion is multiple, so that the electric energy loss is large, and the conversion efficiency is low; therefore, the circuit has a complex structure and a large number of components, so that the product has a large volume and a heavy weight and is high in cost. In the second scheme, a primary voltage reduction circuit is not added, and the direct-current voltage of the bus above 780V is directly used as the input of the inverter circuit, so that the circuit structure is simplified. However, this also increases the voltage stress of the inverter circuit at the subsequent stage, thereby increasing the design difficulty of the circuit, requiring a higher value for the voltage stress of the switching tube, and increasing the cost. Therefore, the prior art is in need of improvement.

The three voltage ranges described above (180V-265V, 265V-365V, 365V-528V) are not fixed numerical ranges, which are only general trends. When the input AC voltage is low, the peak voltage is lower than the output voltage (i.e. the second DC voltage V)Bus) The control scheme shown in fig. 4 is adopted when the voltage is 0.95 times, the control method is simple, the circuit can obtain a high power factor (even if the power factor approaches 1) and a small current THD value, and high electric energy conversion efficiency can be maintained.
When the peak value of the input AC voltage is higher than the output voltage (i.e. the second DC voltage V)Bus) 0.95 times of the first voltage, and does not exceed the output voltage (i.e., the second DC voltage V)Bus) 1.2-1.3 times, the control scheme shown in fig. 5 is adopted, in which case the first switch S1 is only at the first dc voltage UinThe duty ratio is changed near the peak position of the bus, and the state of normal open or maximum duty ratio is kept at other times, so that the circuit can ensure the bus voltage (namely the second direct current voltage V)Bus) Keep stable and can realize good public serviceFlat factor value and high electric energy conversion efficiency.
When the peak value of the input AC voltage is larger than the output voltage (i.e. the second DC voltage V)Bus) 1.2-1.3 times, the control scheme shown in fig. 6 is adopted, when the second switch S2 is at the first direct current voltage UinGreater than the second DC voltage VBus1.2-1.3 times of the first voltage, keeping the state of turn-off or minimum duty ratio, and otherwise, keeping the state according to the first direct current voltage UinThe duty cycle is adjusted. This control method is more suitable for the case where the input ac voltage is higher than the second control method (fig. 5), and can achieve a better THD value and a smaller power loss, thereby improving the power conversion efficiency.

Modern fluorescent lamps are increasingly provided with electronic ballasts, which are light and small, and even can integrate the electronic ballasts with lamp tubes and the like, and meanwhile, the electronic ballasts can have the function of a starter, so that the independent starter can be omitted. The electronic ballast can also have more functions, such as improving or eliminating the flickering phenomenon of the fluorescent lamp by increasing the current frequency or the current waveform (such as changing the current waveform into a square wave); the fluorescent lamp can use a direct current power supply through a power supply inversion process. Some of the disadvantages of conventional inductive rectifiers are making them being replaced by increasingly sophisticated electronic ballasts.
