Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a flowchart illustrating a current detection control method of a pfc circuit according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.
The method is applied to a control device, which is used for outputting a control signal to control a power factor correction circuit to correct the power factor of input alternating current, wherein, as shown in figure 1, the method comprises the following steps:
step S11, determining a current sampling mode according to the common mode voltage of the input current sampling signal, wherein the current sampling signal is collected from the power factor correction circuit;
step S12, when the current sampling mode is determined to be a current sampling mode for sampling by using a resistor, amplifying the current sampling signal to obtain an amplified current sampling signal;
and step S13, taking the amplified current sampling signal as a target current signal, so that the control device adjusts the duty ratio of the control signal according to the amplified current sampling signal.
By the method, the embodiment of the disclosure determines a current sampling mode according to the common-mode voltage of the input current sampling signal, and when the current sampling mode is determined to be a current sampling mode that utilizes a resistor to sample, the current sampling signal is amplified to obtain an amplified current sampling signal, and the amplified current sampling signal is used as a target current signal, so that the control device adjusts the duty ratio of the control signal according to the amplified current sampling signal, thereby realizing compatibility and adaptive selection of multiple current detection modes and multiple PFC circuits, and reducing circuit complexity.
In one example, the current sampling method using the resistor for sampling may be that a sampling resistor is provided at a specific position of the power factor correction circuit, and a current value is obtained by detecting a voltage drop of a voltage of a current flowing through the resistor.
The embodiment of the disclosure amplifies a current sampling signal obtained by sampling the resistance to control the loss, so that the subsequent operation can be accurately realized.
In one example, the current sampling mode may further include a current sampling mode that performs sampling by using a Hall current Sensor (Hall Sensor) or an isolation amplifier, and the current sampling mode that performs sampling by using the Hall current Sensor or the isolation amplifier acquires a current sampling signal, and has the characteristics of low loss, large current detection gain, and large signal amplitude.
Of course, the current sampling manner may also include others, and the embodiment of the present disclosure is not limited thereto.
Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a current detection control method of a pfc circuit according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.
In one possible implementation, as shown in fig. 2, the method may further include:
and step S14, when the current sampling mode is determined to be a current sampling mode for sampling by using a Hall current sensor or an isolation amplifier, directly taking the current sampling signal as a target current signal.

when the common-mode voltage of the current sampling signal is lower than a preset voltage value, determining that the current sampling mode is a current sampling mode for sampling by using a resistor; or
And when the common-mode voltage of the current sampling signal is higher than the preset voltage value, determining that the current sampling mode is a current sampling mode for sampling by using a Hall current sensor or an isolation amplifier.
In an example, the preset voltage value may be determined according to actual conditions or needs, and the specific magnitude of the preset voltage value is not limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure.
In one example, the output signal common-mode voltage of the hall current sensor is above 1V, which is 2.5V for a 5V powered hall current sensor.

For example, the preset voltage value can be set to any voltage value between 0.5 and 1V, for example, 0.8V.
Taking a preset voltage value of 0.8V as an example, when the common-mode voltage of the current sampling signal is lower than the preset voltage value of 0.8V, the embodiment of the present disclosure may determine that the current sampling mode is a current sampling mode in which sampling is performed by using a resistor, and when the common-mode voltage of the current sampling signal is higher than the preset voltage value of 0.8V, the embodiment of the present disclosure may determine that the current sampling mode is a current sampling mode in which sampling is performed by using a hall current sensor or an isolation amplifier.
Of course, it should be understood that the above description of the preset voltage is exemplary and should not be construed as limiting the present disclosure.
In a possible implementation manner, the control device includes an amplifier, wherein the step S12 of amplifying the current sampling signal may include:
and amplifying the current sampling signal by using the amplifier, wherein the gain of the amplifier is a preset gain.
In one example, the preset gain M may be an integer greater than 0, and preferably, may be, for example, 0 to 10 times; further preferably, the preset gain may be 5 times.
Referring to fig. 3a, fig. 3a is a partial schematic diagram of a control device according to an embodiment of the disclosure.
In one example, as shown in fig. 3a, the control means may comprise an amplifier AMP, the amplification factor (gain) M of which may be set as desired, e.g. may be set to 5, and which may then amplify the input by a factor of five.
It should be noted that, the embodiment of the present disclosure does not limit the specific multiple of the amplifier AMP, nor does it limit the specific implementation manner of setting the amplification factor of the amplifier AMP, and those skilled in the art can select various possible multiple configurations to set the multiple of the amplifier as needed.

Referring to fig. 3b, fig. 3b is a partial schematic diagram of a control device according to an embodiment of the disclosure.
In one example, as shown in fig. 3b, the amplifier of the embodiment of the present disclosure may be implemented by combining an operational amplifier with an external feedback resistor, and by setting a suitable external feedback resistor on the operational amplifier, the embodiment of the present disclosure may set a required gain (M), which is described in the following exemplary description.
In one example, as shown in fig. 3b, the apparatus may include a first resistor R1, a second resistor R2, a third resistor R3, and a fourth resistor R4, wherein,

In one example, the embodiment of the present disclosure may determine the magnitude of the sampling current according to a difference between the first input voltage CSN and the second input voltage CSP.
In one example, the second resistor R2 and the fourth resistor R4 are connected to the negative input terminal of the amplifier AMP, and the output of the amplifier is fed back to the negative input terminal through the fourth resistor R4, and with this configuration, the amplifier AMP is set to the operational amplifier mode.
When the current sampling manner is determined to be sampling by using the sampling resistor according to the magnitude of the common mode voltage (e.g., determined according to the first input voltage CSN), the first input voltage CSN and the second input voltage CSP may be input to the amplifier AMP to amplify the current sampling signal by using the amplifier AMP, so as to obtain an amplified current sampling signal.
In one example, as shown in fig. 3b, the control device may further include a selection control unit 31, and the selection control unit 31 may be utilized to confirm the current sampling mode and output a corresponding target current sampling signal according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, for example, as shown in fig. 3b, the selection control unit 31 may include a comparator 311 and a multiplexer MUX, where the comparator 311 may judge the current sampling mode according to a magnitude of the common-mode voltage and output a corresponding target current sampling signal, and when the comparator 311 determines that the common-mode voltage (as determined according to either or both of the first input voltage CSN and the second input voltage CSP) is greater than a preset voltage value, the current sampling mode may be determined to be a mode through a hall sensor or an isolation amplifier, in which case, the comparator 311 may output a corresponding comparison result as a control signal to control the multiplexer to directly use the first input signal CSN and the second input signal CSP as the target current CSP Outputting a sampling signal; when the comparator 311 determines that the common mode voltage is smaller than the preset voltage value, the current sampling mode may be determined to be a mode of passing through a sampling resistor, and in this case, the comparator 311 may output a corresponding comparison result as a control signal to control the multiplexer MUX to output the amplified voltage signal of the amplifier AMP and the first input signal passing through the first resistor R1 and the third resistor R3 as the target current sampling signal.
The above description is given by way of example only by determining the current sampling mode according to the magnitude of the common mode voltage, and in other embodiments, the current sampling mode may also be determined according to the common mode voltage and the voltage signal corresponding to the common mode voltage, for example, the current sampling mode may be determined by using an average value of the first input voltage CSN and the second input voltage CSP (i.e., the sampling voltage), and when the average value of the first input voltage CSN and the second input voltage CSP is greater than a preset average value, the current sampling mode may be determined as a current sampling mode in which current sampling is performed by using a hall sensor or an isolation amplifier; when the mean value of the first input voltage CSN and the second input voltage CSP is smaller than the preset mean value, it may be determined that the current sampling mode is a current sampling mode in which current sampling is performed using a sampling resistor. Of course, in other embodiments, the current sampling manner may also be determined by using a voltage signal (the second input voltage CSP, that is, the sampling voltage) corresponding to the common-mode voltage, which is not limited in this disclosure.
In one possible implementation, the method may further include:
and performing overcurrent detection on the target current signal current sampling signal, and outputting a turn-off control signal to control the power factor correction circuit to be turned off when the current of the detected target current sampling signal reaches a set threshold value.
According to the embodiment of the disclosure, the target current signal current sampling signal is subjected to overcurrent detection, and when the current of the detected target current sampling signal reaches the preset threshold value, a turn-off control signal is output to control the power factor correction circuit to be turned off, so that peak value limitation can be realized to protect the power factor correction circuit.
Please continue to refer to fig. 3 b.
In a possible implementation manner, as shown in fig. 3b, the control device may further include a comparing unit CMP and a threshold setting unit Vs, wherein a positive terminal of the comparing unit CMP is used for inputting the differential positive signal corresponding to the target current detection signal, a negative terminal of the comparing unit is used for inputting the differential negative signal corresponding to the target current detection signal and is connected to the threshold setting unit Vs, and the threshold setting unit Vs is used for generating the set threshold.
It should be noted that the threshold setting unit Vs may be implemented in various ways according to the embodiments of the present disclosure, that is, the threshold setting unit Vs may generate the set threshold in various ways, for example, directly by using a voltage source, or by using a current source in combination with a resistor, which is exemplified below.
In one example, as shown in fig. 3b, the threshold setting unit Vs may include a threshold setting resistor, and the embodiments of the present disclosure may generate the first current Ib1 using a current source and input the first current Ib1 to a first end of the threshold setting resistor; the negative terminal of the comparing unit CMP is electrically connected to the first terminal of the threshold setting unit Vs, the current source may further generate a second current Ib2 and input the second current Ib2 to the positive terminal of the comparing unit, and the second terminal of the threshold setting unit Vs is further configured to input a differential negative signal corresponding to the target current detection signal.
Through the above arrangement, the set threshold may be generated by using the first current Ib1 and the threshold setting resistor Rb, and specifically, the set threshold is a voltage drop (Ib1 × Rb) of the first current Ib1 on the threshold setting resistor Rb.
In one example, the first current Ib1 of the disclosed embodiment may be equal to the second current Ib2 to achieve current matching, reducing common mode errors.
In one example, the comparison unit CMP may comprise one comparator.
In a possible implementation manner, the outputting a shutdown control signal to control the power factor correction circuit to be shut down when the current of the detected target current sampling signal reaches a preset threshold value may include:
and when the input voltage of the positive end of the comparison unit CMP is the same as the input voltage of the negative end, determining that the current of the detected target current sampling signal reaches a preset threshold value, and outputting the turn-off control signal by the comparison unit to control the power factor correction circuit to be turned off.
In one possible implementation, the method may further include:
and controlling the selection control unit to output the target current sampling signal according to the common-mode voltage and/or the sampling voltage of the input current sampling signal.
In one possible implementation manner, as shown in fig. 3b, the embodiment of the disclosure may control a differential positive signal corresponding to the target current sampling signal to be output from the first output terminal Out1 of the selection control unit 31, and control a differential negative signal corresponding to the target current sampling signal to be output from the second output terminal Out2 of the selection control unit 31.
In one possible implementation, the power factor correction circuit may include a bridge power factor correction circuit or may include a bridgeless power factor correction circuit.
In one example, for the bridged PFC, since the current flows unidirectionally, and thus the polarity control is not required, the embodiment of the present disclosure directly outputs a differential positive signal of the target current sampling signal of the bridged PFC from the first output terminal Out1 of the selection control unit 31 and outputs a differential negative signal from the second output terminal Out 2.
For the bridgeless PFC circuit, because the current flows in both directions in the positive and negative half cycles in the bridgeless PFC, the embodiment of the disclosure can realize the switching of the positive and negative half cycles according to the polarity control signal Pac.
In one example, the comparison unit CMP is set to be in a differential input mode in the embodiment of the present disclosure, so that the clipping accuracy can be ensured, and for the bridgeless totem-pole PFC, polarity switching can be performed in combination with positive and negative half cycles of the alternating current, peak detection on a target current sampling signal (including positive current and negative current) can be realized by using the same comparator, and symmetry of the positive and negative half cycles can be ensured.
In one example, for a bridgeless PFC, when the alternating current is positive, the corresponding current is positive, and the input current sampling signal is positive; when the alternating current is negative, the corresponding current is negative, and the input current (amplified) is inverted after passing through the selection control unit Mux.
In one possible implementation, the power factor correction circuit includes a bridgeless totem-pole power factor correction circuit, and in one example, as shown in fig. 3b, the selection control unit 31 may receive the polarity control signal Pac, and the method may include:
controlling a high-level signal corresponding to the target current sampling signal to be output from a first output end of the selection control unit according to the polarity of the alternating current;
and controlling a low-level signal corresponding to the target current sampling signal to be output from a second output end of the selection control unit according to the polarity of the alternating current.
In one example, the polarity of the alternating current may be determined according to the received polarity control signal Pac.
In one example, as for the current sampling manner, the sampling manner is a manner of sampling through a sampling resistor, as shown in fig. 3b, the embodiment of the present disclosure may select, according to the polarity of the alternating current, to output a voltage, which is obtained by passing through the first resistor R1 and the second resistor R2 according to the first input voltage CSN, from the first output terminal Out1, and output an amplified voltage, which is obtained by amplifying the second input voltage CSP, from the second output terminal Out 2; or the voltage after passing through the first resistor R1 and the second resistor R2 according to the first input voltage CSN is selected to be output from the second output terminal Out2 according to the polarity of the alternating current (determined by the polarity control signal Pac, for example), and the amplified voltage after being amplified by the second input voltage CSP is output from the first output terminal Out 1.
In one example, for the current sampling manner being a manner of sampling by a hall sensor or an isolation amplifier, as shown in fig. 3b, the embodiment of the present disclosure may select to output the CSP according to the first input voltage CSN from the first output terminal Out1 and to output the CSP according to the second output terminal Out2 according to the polarity of the alternating current; or the polarity of the alternating current is selected to output the second input voltage CSP from the first output terminal Out2 according to the first input voltage CSN and from the first output terminal Out 1.
The first current Ib1 is set to be equal to the second current Ib2, and flows into two ends of the comparison unit CMP respectively, that is, flows into two ends of the target current sampling signal simultaneously, so that two paths of current matching are realized, and the common mode error of the target current sampling signal can be effectively suppressed.
In one example, when the differential positive signal (output from the first output terminal Out 1) of the target current sampling signal is equal to the differential negative signal (output from the second output terminal Out 2) of the target current sampling signal plus the voltage Ib × Rb (the set threshold of the threshold setting unit Vs), it can be determined that the target current sampling signal is over-current, and therefore, the comparison unit CMP outputs a shutdown control signal to control the power tube in the PFC circuit to be turned off, so as to avoid the device damage due to excessive current.
Possible implementations of the control device are further described below.
