Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be obtained by a person skilled in the art without making any creative effort based on the embodiments in the present invention, belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
In this application, the terms "comprises," "comprising," or any other variation thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements does not include only those elements but may include other elements not expressly listed or inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitation, an element defined by the phrase "comprising an … …" does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises the element.
It can be known from the background art that, when current control is performed on a DC-DC converter, a current sensor needs to be arranged on each phase of the DC-DC converter to collect current, and each phase current is controlled independently to realize the effect of current balance, but this way increases the circuit design difficulty and design cost of the DC-DC converter.
Therefore, the embodiment of the invention provides a current detection method and a current detection device for a DC-DC converter, wherein a current sensor is arranged in front of an input end phase splitting of the DC-DC converter, whether the current of the DC-DC converter is balanced is determined by only using the total current acquired by the current sensor, and if the current of the DC-DC converter is not balanced, the current loop control is performed on each phase of the DC-DC converter by using the acquired total current so as to reduce the circuit design difficulty and reduce the design cost.
It can be understood that, in the embodiment of the present invention, a current sensor is disposed at a position before the input end of the DC-DC converter is split, and the current sensor collects the total current (current when the input end is not split) input into the DC-DC converter, and the current detection method of the DC-DC converter provided in the embodiment of the present invention is applicable to various types of DC-DC converters, such as: the method is suitable for a Buck or Boost type DC-DC converter which is connected in parallel in a multiphase interleaving manner.
For better explanation, the 2-interleaved parallel Boost circuit is exemplified as the content of "disposing a current sensor at a position before the input terminal of the DC-DC converter", and the specific content of the 2-interleaved parallel Boost circuit is shown in the Boost circuit topology of the DC-DC converter shown in fig. 1.
It is understood that, as shown in fig. 1, in the 2-phase interleaved parallel Boost circuit, the current sensor (a in fig. 1) is arranged at a position before the input phase splitting of the DC-DC converter, and the total current of the input DC-DC converter without phase splitting can be collected.
Referring to fig. 2, a flowchart of a current detection method of a DC-DC converter according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown, where the current detection method includes:
step S201: and determining the duty ratio of the DC-DC converter, and collecting the total current input into the DC-DC converter by using a current sensor arranged in a position before the input end split phase of the DC-DC converter.
In the process of implementing step S201 specifically, a DC-DC converter control algorithm is used to calculate and obtain a corresponding Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) duty ratio.
It should be noted that, the current sensor is disposed before the input terminal of the DC-DC converter is split, and specific contents can be referred to the contents in fig. 1 of the above embodiment of the present invention.
In a specific implementation, the current sensor is used for collecting the total current input into the DC-DC converter, and the total current is the sum of each phase current of the DC-DC converter.
Step S202: and determining the current peak value moment corresponding to each phase current of the DC-DC converter in each control period according to the duty ratio and the total current.
It can be understood that, in each control period, each phase current of the DC-DC converter has only one peak, and therefore, in the process of implementing step S202 specifically, for each control period, according to the duty ratio and the total current, a current peak time corresponding to the peak of each phase current of the DC-DC converter in the control period (a time corresponding to the peak of each phase current) is determined by using a preset algorithm.
And when the current peak value moment corresponding to the wave crest of each phase of current is calculated, calculating a phase offset angle according to the staggered parallel phase-splitting number, thereby calculating the current peak value moment of each phase of current.
Such as: the DC-DC converter comprises an A-phase current and a C-phase current, and for a control period, the corresponding current peak value moment of the A-phase current in the control period is calculated by using the duty ratio and the total current, and the corresponding current peak value moment of the C-phase current in the control period is calculated.
Step S203: in each control cycle, a target total current of the total currents corresponding to the current peak timing of each phase current is determined.
It will be appreciated that the current sensor is of a type which operates without interruption, i.e. the current sensor collects the total current input to the DC-DC converter without interruption.
In the process of specifically implementing step S203, for a control period, in the control period, a target total current corresponding to a current peak time of each phase current in the collected total currents is determined, that is, each current peak time corresponds to a target total current in the total currents, that is, the total current collected at each current peak time (the total current is the target total current) is obtained.
Such as: the DC-DC converter comprises an A-phase current and a C-phase current, and in a control period, the total current collected at the current peak moment of the A-phase current is obtained (the total current is the target total current at this time), and the total current collected at the current peak moment of the C-phase current is obtained (the total current is the target total current at this time).
Step S204: and in each control period, determining whether the DC-DC converter is current balanced or not by using all the target total currents according to the duty ratio. If the DC-DC converter is not current balanced, step S205 is executed. If the DC-DC converter current is balanced, the step S201 is executed to continue to collect the total current.
In the process of specifically implementing step S204, for each control period, according to the duty ratio, it is determined whether the DC-DC converter is current balanced by using all the target total currents in the control period, and if the DC-DC converter is not current balanced, current loop control is performed on each phase of the DC-DC converter, so that the DC-DC converter is current balanced. And if the current of the DC-DC converter is balanced, continuously acquiring the total current and continuously detecting whether the current of the DC-DC converter is balanced.
It can be understood that, when determining whether the DC-DC converter is current balanced, the determination manner is different according to the duty ratio, and specific determination manners are as follows.
The judgment method is as follows: in each control period, if the duty ratio is less than 50%, determining the difference (absolute value of the difference) between every two target total currents, if any difference is greater than a current threshold, determining that the current of the DC-DC converter is not balanced, and if all differences are less than or equal to the current threshold, determining that the current of the DC-DC converter is balanced.
That is, when the duty ratio is less than 50%, in each control period, the difference between every two target total currents is calculated, if all the differences are less than or equal to a current threshold (the current threshold can be determined according to the acquisition error of the current sensor), the current balance of the DC-DC converter is determined, and if any one difference is greater than the current threshold, the current balance of the DC-DC converter is determined.
To better explain the content of the first determination method, taking the example that the DC-DC converter includes 2-phase currents (a-phase current and C-phase current), the current waveform diagram of the DC-DC converter during current balancing shown in fig. 3 is taken as an example.
Fig. 3 is a current waveform diagram when the duty ratio is less than 50% and the DC-DC converter is in current balance, and fig. 3 is a waveform diagram of each phase current, a waveform diagram of each phase PWM output, and a waveform diagram of the total current in sequence from top to bottom, where 1 in the phase current waveform diagram and the PWM output waveform diagram is a waveform diagram corresponding to a, and 2 in the phase current waveform diagram and the PWM output waveform diagram is a waveform diagram corresponding to B.
It is understood that, in the phase current waveform diagram, reference numeral 1 is a current peak value of phase a in a control period, reference numeral 2 is a corresponding current peak value of phase C in the control period, and time instants corresponding to reference numerals 1 and 2 are a current peak value time instant corresponding to phase a and a current peak value time instant corresponding to phase C, respectively.
In the total current waveform chart, a total current (i.e., a target total current) corresponding to reference numeral 1 and a total current (i.e., a target total current) corresponding to reference numeral 2 are obtained.
As can be seen from the content shown in fig. 3, when the duty ratio is less than 50% and the DC-DC converter current is balanced, the difference between the target total current corresponding to reference numeral 1 and the target total current corresponding to reference numeral 2 is less than the current threshold.
And a second judgment mode: and in each control period, if the duty ratio is greater than or equal to 50%, determining whether each target total current is the same. And if the total target current is different, determining that the DC-DC converter is not current balanced. And if the total current of each target is the same, determining the current balance of the DC-DC converter.
That is, when the duty ratio is greater than or equal to 50%, in each control period, if all the target total currents are the same, it is determined that the current of the DC-DC converter is balanced, and if all the target total currents are different, it is determined that the current of the DC-DC converter is not balanced.
To better explain the second determination method, the DC-DC converter including 2-phase current (a-phase current and C-phase current) is taken as an example, and another current waveform diagram of the DC-DC converter during current balancing is illustrated in fig. 4.
Fig. 4 is a current waveform diagram when the DC-DC converter is in current balance with a duty ratio of 50% or more, and fig. 4 is a waveform diagram of a current of each phase, a PWM output waveform diagram of each phase, and a total current waveform diagram in the order from top to bottom, where a phase current waveform diagram and a PWM output waveform diagram are represented by a waveform diagram corresponding to reference numeral 1, and a phase current waveform diagram and a PWM output waveform diagram are represented by a waveform diagram corresponding to reference numeral 2.
It is understood that, in the phase current waveform diagram, reference numeral 1 is a current peak value of phase a in a control period, reference numeral 2 is a corresponding current peak value of phase C in the control period, and time instants corresponding to reference numerals 1 and 2 are a current peak value time instant corresponding to phase a and a current peak value time instant corresponding to phase C, respectively.
In the total current waveform chart, a total current (i.e., a target total current) corresponding to reference numeral 1 and a total current (i.e., a target total current) corresponding to reference numeral 2 are obtained.
As can be seen from the contents shown in fig. 4, when the duty ratio is 50% or more and the DC-DC converter currents are balanced, the target total current corresponding to reference numeral 1 is the same as the target total current corresponding to reference numeral 2.
That is, when the DC-DC converter is current-balanced, the total current is equal to the sum of the currents of the phases, and when the total current is not equal to the sum of the currents of the phases, that is, when the DC-DC converter is not current-balanced, the current loop control of the DC-DC converter may be performed, or the DC-DC converter may be stopped according to actual conditions.
Step S205: and respectively carrying out current loop control on each phase of the DC-DC converter by utilizing each peak point current in the total current.
In the process of implementing step S205 specifically, if the DC-DC converter is not current balanced, the phase current of each phase of the DC-DC converter is estimated by using each peak point current in the collected total current, and the current loop control is performed on each phase of the DC-DC converter by using the phase current of each phase.
That is, for each phase of the DC-DC converter, current loop control is performed on the phase using the estimated phase current of the phase, thereby equalizing the DC-DC converter current.
To better explain the current waveform diagram of the DC-DC converter when the DC-DC converter is not current-balanced, the current waveform diagram shown in fig. 5 and 6 is exemplified by taking the case where the DC-DC converter includes 2-phase currents (a-phase current and C-phase current).
Referring to fig. 5, a current waveform diagram of a DC-DC converter provided by the embodiment of the invention when the current is not balanced is shown.
It should be noted that fig. 5 is a current waveform diagram when the duty ratio is less than 50% and the DC-DC converter is not current balanced (phase a current > phase C current), fig. 5 is a current waveform diagram of each phase, a PWM output waveform diagram of each phase, and a total current waveform diagram in sequence from top to bottom, where reference numeral 1 in the phase current waveform diagram and the PWM output waveform diagram is a waveform diagram corresponding to a, and reference numeral 2 in the phase current waveform diagram and the PWM output waveform diagram is a waveform diagram corresponding to B.
It is understood that, in the phase current waveform diagram, reference numeral 1 is a current peak value of phase a in a control period, reference numeral 2 is a corresponding current peak value of phase C in the control period, and time instants corresponding to reference numerals 1 and 2 are a current peak time instant corresponding to phase a and a current peak time instant corresponding to phase C, respectively.
In the total current waveform chart, a total current (i.e., a target total current) corresponding to reference numeral 1 and a total current (i.e., a target total current) corresponding to reference numeral 2 are obtained.
As can be seen from the illustration in fig. 5, in a control cycle, when the DC-DC converter is not current-balanced, the a-phase current is greater than the C-phase current, and the target total current corresponding to reference numeral 1 is greater than the target total current corresponding to reference numeral 2.
Referring to fig. 6, another current waveform diagram of the DC-DC converter provided by the embodiment of the invention when the current is not balanced is shown.
