Specifically, referring to fig. 2 and fig. 2-1, the invention is explained in conjunction with a specific circuit embodiment, the signal conditioning circuit includes a detection circuit 1-1 and a pull-up circuit 1-2, the pull-up circuit includes a pulse circuit 1-2-1 and a current source circuit 1-2-2, the detection circuit 1-1 is configured to detect a voltage across a drain and a source of the synchronous rectifier tube to output a switching signal Vf for transmission to the pull-up circuit, and the detection circuit may be implemented by a comparator or the like.
The pulse circuit 1-2-1 generates an enable pulse signal GEN to the current source circuit 1-2-2, receives the switching signal Vf, and determines and adjusts a duty ratio of the enable pulse signal GEN according to an effective state of the switching signal Vf, and specifically, in a previous cycle, when the enable pulse signal GEN is at a low level, and when the switching signal Vf is at an effective state, the low-level invalid state of the enable pulse signal is extended.
The current source circuit 1-2-2 receives the enable pulse signal GEN to output the pulsed pull-up signal Id1 according to the enable pulse signal state. In this embodiment, the current source circuit includes a field effect transistor M3, a control terminal of the field effect transistor M3 receives the enable pulse signal GEN, a drain terminal of the field effect transistor M3 receives a power supply Vcc, and an output signal of a source terminal of the field effect transistor M3 is used as the pulse type pull-up signal Id 1.
In addition, in the control method, the step of: when the voltage of the two ends of the drain source of the synchronous rectification switch tube is detected to be larger than or equal to a preset first threshold voltage, the signal regulating circuit outputs a pull-down signal to pull down the grid source voltage of the synchronous rectification switch tube. Here, the voltage V across the drain and the source of the synchronous rectification switch tube may be received by the detection circuitDSAnd preA first threshold voltage Vth1 when the voltage V between the drain and the sourceDSWhen the voltage reaches a first threshold voltage Vth1, the gate-source voltage of the synchronous rectification switch tube is pulled down through a pull-down circuit, so that the voltage V at the two ends of the drain and the source of the synchronous rectification tubeDSIs maintained around the first threshold voltage Vth 1. In this embodiment, when the gate-source voltage of the synchronous rectifying tube drops to a preset voltage value, the pull-down signal is controlled to decrease, and when it is detected that the voltage across the drain and the source of the synchronous rectifying tube is equal to a preset first threshold voltage, the gate-source voltage value of the synchronous rectifying tube is recorded as a first voltage value, the preset voltage value is greater than an inherent voltage value and less than or equal to the first voltage value, wherein the inherent voltage value is one of 0.5V to 0.7V.
Referring now to fig. 2-2, a waveform diagram of the operation of the synchronous rectification switch tube of fig. 2 is shown. At the time t0, the secondary side synchronous rectification switch tube M1 is turned on, and the drain-source current I of the synchronous rectification switch tube M1DSStarting to change according to quasi-sine, and reaching the time t1, the voltage V between the drain and the source of the synchronous rectification switch tube M1DSWhen the voltage reaches a first threshold voltage Vth1, the signal regulating circuit outputs the pull-down signal to pull down the grid voltage of the synchronous rectification switching tube M1, the grid-source voltage of the synchronous rectification switching tube M1 is pulled down to be close to a turn-off threshold value, and the voltage V at two ends of the drain and the source of the synchronous rectification switching tube M1DSStarting to drop, and reaching the time t2, the voltage V between the drain and the source of the synchronous rectification switch tube M1DSAnd the voltage drops to a second threshold voltage Vth2, at this time, the switching signal Vf output by the detection circuit 1-1 is in a high-level effective state, the pulse circuit 2-2-1 receives the switching signal Vf and outputs an enable pulse signal GEN to the field effect transistor M3, the field effect transistor M3 is turned on, and the gate-source voltage of the synchronous rectification switching tube M1 is pulled up through the power supply voltage Vcc. One working period of the enabling pulse signal GEN comprises a high-level effective state and a low-level ineffective state, and in the previous working period of the enabling pulse signal GEN, in a low-level time period, the voltage V at two ends of a drain source of the synchronous rectification switch tube is detectedDSThe second threshold voltage Vth2, when the drain of the synchronous rectification switch tubeVoltage V across the sourceDSWhen the switching signal is in an active state less than the second threshold voltage Vth2, the pulse circuit outputs an enable pulse signal GEN of the next period to the synchronous rectification switch tube M1, and the cycle is repeated, so that it can be understood that the source voltage signal of the synchronous rectification switch tube M1, i.e., the pull-up signal, is a pulse signal. As shown in fig. 2-2, the gate-source current I of the synchronous rectification switch tube is in the time period of t2-t3DSFor pulse signals, after the pull-up is carried out for a plurality of cycles, the detection circuit detects the voltage V at two ends of the drain and the source of the synchronous rectification switch tube to the time t3DSWhen the voltage is higher than the second threshold voltage Vth2, the switching signal is in an inactive state, and the pulse circuit extends the inactive state of the enable pulse signal. Then, in the stage of t3-t4, the voltage V between the grid and the source of the synchronous rectification switch tubeGSMaintaining the voltage V at two ends of drain and source of synchronous rectification switch tube at a value greater than the turn-off threshold valueDSWith drain-source current IDSThe variation of (2) will fluctuate a little, as shown in fig. 2-2, and the voltage V between the drain and the source of the synchronous rectification switch tube is reduced a little by t4DSWhen the turn-off threshold value is reached, the voltage V at the two ends of the grid source of the synchronous rectification switch tube is pulled downGSAnd turning off the switching tube. According to the switching characteristic of the synchronous rectification switching tube, when the voltage V is applied to the two ends of the grid source of the synchronous rectification switching tubeGSWhen the voltage is pulled up to the maximum driving voltage value, the grid source voltage does not need to be pulled up any more, and the enable pulse signal is kept in a low-level invalid state.
It can be seen from the above process that, according to the embodiment, after the drain-source voltage of the synchronous rectification switch tube is decreased to the set lower threshold voltage, the gate-source voltage of the synchronous rectification switch tube is pulled up by the pulse-type pull-up signal, and the drain-source voltage of the synchronous rectification switch tube is monitored all the time, and once the drain-source voltage is detected to be increased to the set lower threshold voltage, the invalid state of the pulse-type pull-up signal is prolonged. By the scheme of the stepped pull-up gate source voltage, the phenomenon that the drain-source voltage of the synchronous rectification switch tube reaches the turn-off threshold value in advance and the synchronous rectification switch tube is turned off in advance due to the fact that the pull-up is too fast is avoided, the pull-up signal of the circuit can be adjusted in a self-adaptive mode according to the drain-source voltage, the circuit is adjusted fast, and the adaptability is good.
