Description

Control circuit and method thereof, chip, switching power supply and electronic device
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of synchronous rectification, in particular to a control circuit and a method thereof, a chip, a switching power supply and an electronic device.
Background
In order to improve the efficiency of the switching circuit, it has been a trend to replace the freewheeling diode with a synchronous rectification MOS transistor, especially in the application of the switching power supply with an output current larger than 2A.
Even if the synchronous rectification circuit is provided, in order to achieve the highest efficiency, the conduction time of the synchronous rectification MOS tube is required to be as long as possible, and the conduction time of the body diode of the synchronous rectification MOS tube is required to be as short as possible, so that the loss generated by the body diode can be reduced.
Taking a flyback converter as an example, the operating waveforms shown in fig. 1 are shown. When the primary side main power tube Is turned off, the current Is of the secondary side winding starts to follow current through a body diode of the synchronous rectification tube, and after the turn-on delay time Td, the synchronous rectification MOS tube Is completely turned on;
when the output current is reduced to a certain value, the source-drain voltage V of the synchronous rectification MOS tubeDSWhen the voltage Is greater than the threshold voltage Vthoff, the synchronous rectification MOS tube Is turned off in advance, the current Is of the secondary winding starts to flow through the body diode of the synchronous rectification MOS tube again, and the time Is Tdiode. The body diode has high conduction voltage drop, so the conduction loss is large and the efficiency is low.
In the method, if the cut-off threshold voltage Vthoff is set to be very small, the conduction time of a body diode of the synchronous rectification MOS tube can be reduced theoretically, but actually, because the synchronous rectification MOS tube driving circuit has turn-off delay and the tolerance of the cut-off threshold voltage Vthoff parameter is considered, the synchronous rectification MOS tube and the primary side main power MOS tube are simultaneously turned on.

Example one
In one aspect, as shown in fig. 2 and 3, the present invention provides a synchronous rectifier control circuit, where the synchronous rectifier control circuit is used to control a synchronous rectifier Q1, and the synchronous rectifier control circuit of this embodiment is applied to a flyback converter.

After the primary side main power tube is turned off, the threshold comparator module 1 is used for comparing the drain-source voltage V of the synchronous rectifier tube Q1DSVariation being detected, drain-source voltage VDSUndergoes the change of descending first and ascending second, and is at the drain-source voltage VDSIn the latter phase of the rise phase, the threshold comparator module 1 detects the drain-source voltage VDSWhen the threshold voltage is higher than the set third threshold voltage Vthcp, the threshold comparator module 1 outputs a third signal to the driving voltage control module 2, and the driving voltage control module 2 regulates and controls the gate-source voltage VGSWill gate source voltage VGSClamp pull down to clamp voltage Vclamp and hold it constant for clamp time Tcp, drain-source voltage VDSContinues to rise when the drain-source voltage VDSWhen the threshold voltage rises to a cut-off threshold voltage Vthoff close to zero voltage, the threshold comparator module 1 outputs a fourth signal to the driving voltage control module 2, and the driving voltage control module 2 pulls down a gate-source voltage VGSSo that the synchronous rectifier Q1 is turned off, wherein the third threshold voltage Vthcp is smaller than the cut-off threshold voltage Vthoff, which is smaller than 0.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 3, four threshold voltages (first threshold voltage Vthon, second threshold voltage Vthreg, and third threshold voltage) are setVoltage Vthcp, cutoff threshold voltage Vthoff) are all negative values. By using the scheme of the invention, the threshold comparator module 1 can monitor the drain-source voltage V of the synchronous rectifier tube Q1 in real timeDSAnd at drain-source voltage VDSWhen reaching the third threshold voltage Vthcp, the gate-source voltage V is regulatedGSThe clamp is pulled down to a clamp voltage Vclamp and is kept unchanged, and after the clamp time Tcp is continued, the drain-source voltage VDSContinuously rising to a cut-off threshold voltage Vthoff close to zero voltage, and then changing the gate-source voltage VGSReducing to zero voltage to realize the fast turn-off of the synchronous rectifier tube Q1; the scheme is simple to realize and has the effect of quickly switching off the synchronous rectifier tube Q1.
Preferably, the driving voltage control module 2 includes a clamp circuit 21, a CIN terminal (control terminal) of the clamp circuit 21 is electrically connected to the threshold comparator module 1, and a CG terminal of the clamp circuit 21 is also electrically connected to a gate of the synchronous rectifier Q1; when the threshold comparator module 1 detects the drain-source voltage VDSWhen the threshold voltage is greater than or equal to the set third threshold voltage Vthcp, the threshold comparator module 1 outputs a third signal to the clamp circuit 21, and the clamp circuit 21 clamps the gate-source voltage VGSRegulated and maintained at a clamping voltage Vclamp, which is determined by circuitry internal to clamping circuit 21.
Fig. 4 shows an embodiment of the clamping circuit 21, and the clamping circuit 21 internally includes a regulator circuit including a zener diode and a switching transistor N2. When the input CIN terminal is at a high level, the switching transistor N2 is turned on, and the clamp voltage Vclamp at the output terminal GATE of the driving voltage control module 2 approaches the voltage of the zener diode, for example, 3.3V.

When the threshold comparator module 1 controls the voltage follower to work, the voltage follower adjusts the voltage of the output terminal GATE of the driving voltage control module 2 to the clamping voltage Vclamp, namely, the GATE-source voltage V of the synchronous rectifier tube Q1GSPull down to the clamp voltage Vclamp.
The clamping circuit 21 of the present invention is not limited to the implementations of fig. 4 and 5, and other similar schemes for implementing the corresponding clamping voltage function are possible.
Preferably, the driving voltage control module further comprises a first micro-voltage reduction loop, when the threshold comparator module detects the drain-source voltage VDSWhen the threshold voltage Vthreg is greater than or equal to the set second threshold voltage Vthreg, the threshold comparator module 1 is configured to control all the loops electrically connected to the gates of the synchronous rectifiers to be turned off, and the first fine-step-down loop is turned on, and the first fine-step-down loop is configured to release the voltage across the gate-source parasitic capacitor C1 of the synchronous rectifier Q1, where the second threshold voltage Vthreg is less than the third threshold voltage Vthcp.

In general, the absolute value of the normal driving voltage VCC ranges from 6V to 10V, for example, 6V, 7V, 8V, 9V, 10V, etc., the absolute value of the clamp voltage Vclamp is larger than the absolute value of the threshold voltage of the synchronous rectifier Q1, the absolute value of the clamp voltage Vclamp needs to be larger than the absolute value of the threshold voltage by about 1V or more depending on the requirement of the turn-off speed of the synchronous rectifier Q1, and for example, the absolute value of the clamp voltage Vclamp ranges from 1.5V to 4.5V, for example, 1.5V, 1.7V, 2V, 2.5V, 3V, 4V, 4.5V, etc.
Specifically, the on and off of the upper driving switch P1 directly controls the supply and the removal of power to the gate of the synchronous rectifier Q1, and the power supply can be an internal power supply or an external power supply.

Example two
On the other hand, referring to fig. 3 and 6, the present invention provides a method for controlling a synchronous rectifier Q1, and a part not described in this embodiment refers to the embodiment, and the method for controlling the synchronous rectifier Q1 includes:
s1: detecting the drain-source voltage V between the drain and the source of the synchronous rectifier Q1DS
S2: when the drain-source voltage VDSWhen the voltage is greater than or equal to a set third threshold voltage Vthcp, the grid-source voltage V is regulated and controlledGSClamped down to a clamp voltage Vclamp;
s3: when the drain-source voltage VDSWhen rising to cut-off threshold voltage Vthoff, pull down grid source voltage VGSSo that the synchronous rectifier Q1 is turned off, wherein the third threshold voltage Vthcp is smaller than the cut-off threshold voltage Vthoff, which is smaller than 0.
Further, between the step S1 and the step S2, the method further comprises the steps of:
when the drain-source voltage VDSWhen the second threshold voltage Vthreg is greater than or equal to the set second threshold voltage Vthreg, the circuits electrically connected to the gate of the synchronous rectifier Q1 are all controlled to be turned off, and the first micro-buck circuit is controlled to be turned on to release the voltage on the gate-source parasitic capacitor C1 of the synchronous rectifier Q1, wherein the second threshold voltage Vthreg is less than the third threshold voltage Vthcp.
The clamp voltage Vclamp is between 0 and the normal driving voltage VCC, and the first threshold voltage Vthon is smaller than the second threshold voltage Vthreg, that is, the first threshold voltage Vthon, the second threshold voltage Vthreg, the third threshold voltage Vthcp, and the cut-off threshold voltage Vthoff have the following magnitude relations:
Vthoff>Vthcp>Vthreg>Vthon。
drain-source voltage VDSAfter the primary side main power MOS tube is turned off, the primary side main power MOS tube becomes a negative value and is reduced along with time; after the synchronous rectifier Q1 is turned on, the drain-source voltage VDSThe voltage increases gradually and eventually approaches the cut-off threshold voltage Vthoff at turn-off.
Specifically, as shown in FIG. 3, the drain-source voltage VDSThe principle of curve transformation is as follows: the primary side of the transformer is high and low at the beginning, when the primary side main power MOS tube is closed, the primary side continues current, and at the same time, in order to prevent the breakdown caused by the increase of the voltage of the MOS tube body diode, the current is discharged back to the upper end of the primary side of the transformer through the diode and the resistor, so that the voltage of the lower end is higher than the voltage of the upper end, and the voltage of the secondary side is changed into the voltage of the upper end, the lower end and the upper end which are high and low (changed from the previous voltage of the lower end, the upper end and the lower end), so that the drain-source voltage VDSChange from positive to negative whenMeasuring drain-source voltage VDSWhen the voltage is changed to the first threshold voltage Vthon, the transistor Q1 is controlled to be conducted, but there is a small delay due to the circuit itself, the body diode is conducted, when the transistor Q1 is controlled to be conducted, the transistor Q1 works in the linear region, and the drain-source voltage V isDSThe absolute value of the voltage decreases with decreasing current, while the drain-source voltage V decreasesDSAt this time, it is negative, so the drain-source voltage VDSThe voltage increases with decreasing current.
Specifically, please refer to fig. 2 and fig. 3 in combination, when the drain-source voltage V is appliedDSWhen the voltage is lower than the first threshold voltage Vthon, the first threshold comparator CMP1 outputs a high level to control the totem-pole drive switch P1 to be turned on, the normal drive voltage VCC is applied to the gate of the synchronous rectifier Q1, and the synchronous rectifier Q1 is in a conducting state and is equivalent to a resistor.
In particular, considering the time delay of turn-on, as shown in fig. 3, the gate-source voltage V of the synchronous rectifier Q1GSAt a drain-source voltage VDSAfter reaching the first threshold voltage Vthon, a slope rising is performed after a period of time, and after a total turn-on delay Td, the on-voltage of the synchronous rectifier Q1 is reached, and then the voltage rises all the way to the normal driving voltage VCC and remains unchanged. Therefore, the turn-on delay Td time is taken into account in the subsequent time determination for more precise control of the turn-on and turn-off timings.
Specifically, a minimum on-time Tonmin is set for controlling the on-time of the synchronous rectifier Q1 below which the off-command is negligible. This further improves stability and avoids frequent on/off operations that could damage the synchronous rectifier Q1.
Further, when the circuit of the secondary winding continues the decrease of the current Is, the drain-source voltage VDSThe voltage increases (the absolute value becomes smaller). When the drain-source voltage VDSWhen the voltage is greater than the second threshold voltage Vthreg, the second threshold comparator CMP2 outputs a high level to control the turn-off of the upper driving switch P1, and the voltage at the output GATE of the driving voltage control module 2 is determined by the presence of the first micro-buck loopThe synchronous rectifier Q1 continues to remain open with a slight decrease.
Further, when the drain-source voltage V is appliedDSContinuing to increase to the third threshold voltage Vthcp, the third threshold comparator CMP3 outputs a high level, and controls the clamp circuit 21 to pull the voltage at the output terminal GATE of the driving voltage control block 2 to a clamp voltage Vclamp.
Specifically, the time from the second threshold voltage Vthreg to the clamping voltage Vclamp is defined as a free adjustment time Tr1, and may be adjusted according to different requirements, mainly by setting the magnitude of the third threshold voltage Vthcp. When the third threshold voltage Vthcp is detected, the gate-source voltage V of the synchronous rectifier Q1 is decreasedGSAt this time, the resistance of the synchronous rectifier Q1 increases, and the current of the continuous current Is almost constant, so that the drain-source voltage VDSThere will be a drop in voltage and thus a steep drop in the figure. The time point setting of the third threshold voltage Vthcp cannot be too early or too late, which is specifically caused by the following reasons: the third threshold voltage Vthcp cannot be too close in time to the second threshold voltage Vthreg because this would cause the resistance of the synchronous rectifier Q1 to increase (because the clamp circuit 21 pulls the gate-source voltage V sharplyGSCausing the impedance to become larger and to be earlier), thereby causing the loss of the synchronous rectifier Q1 to increase; the third threshold voltage Vthcp is not too close in time to the cut-off threshold voltage Vthoff (may overlap with the cut-off threshold voltage Vthoff and pull-down too late to directly follow the gate-source voltage VGSThe maximum voltage is pulled to zero, which results in too late turn-off), since the turn-off of the synchronous rectifier Q1 has a delay, the purpose of rapidly turning off the synchronous rectifier Q1 may not be achieved, the primary side and the secondary side may be simultaneously turned on, and thus a spike may occur, which may break down the synchronous rectifier Q1.
If the free adjustment time Tr1 is not available, the current is large, the loss of the synchronous rectifier Q1 is increased, and the free adjustment time Tr1 is set, so that the loss is favorably reduced.
Further, when the drain-source voltage V is appliedDSUpon continuing to increase to the cutoff threshold voltage Vthoff, the fourth threshold comparatorThe CMP4 outputs high level to control the on-off of the drive switch N1, and the gate-source voltage V of the synchronous rectifier Q1GSThe synchronous rectifier Q1 is quickly turned off by pulling down from the clamp voltage Vclamp to zero.
Therefore, the scheme provides four comparison thresholds (CMP1, CMP2, CMP3 and CMP4) in total, one or more specific circuits can be freely combined, the voltage difference value between the drain and the source of the synchronous rectifier Q1 is monitored in real time and compared with the four thresholds, and the gate-source voltage V of the synchronous rectifier Q1 is compared at the four threshold pointsGSDifferent control is performed, so that the voltage difference value between the drain and the source of the synchronous rectifier Q1 is more finely controlled, and the voltage difference value between the drain and the source of the synchronous rectifier Q1 is ensured to be reduced as much as possible before the synchronous rectifier Q1 is turned off, so that the turn-off is more rapid and the loss is reduced.

The synchronous rectifier Q1 corresponds to the synchronous rectifier Q1, the 6 terminal corresponds to the input terminal VD of the threshold comparator module 1, and is used to connect the drain of the synchronous rectifier Q1, the 5 terminal corresponds to the output terminal GATE of the driving voltage control module 2, and is used to connect the GATE of the synchronous rectifier Q1, the 2 terminal corresponds to the ground terminal of the driving voltage control module 2, and the 4 terminal corresponds to the normal driving voltage provided by the internal power supply.
