Abstract
Description
本発明は、共振周波数の調整が可能な共振回路に関するもので、特に高周波の電力回路用の共振回路に関する。 The present invention relates to a resonance circuit capable of adjusting a resonance frequency, and more particularly to a resonance circuit for a high frequency power circuit.
大きな高周波電力を出力する送信機等の出力回路には、高い電力効率を有するD級増幅器やE級増幅器が使われている。通常、これらの増幅器の出力には、出力される電力を通過させるLC共振回路を伴う(例えば、特許文献1)。 Class D amplifiers and class E amplifiers having high power efficiency are used in output circuits such as transmitters that output large high-frequency power. Usually, the output of these amplifiers is accompanied by an LC resonance circuit that passes the output power (for example, Patent Document 1).
このようなLC共振回路を用いたものでは、共振回路内のコンデンサの容量を変えることによって目的とする周波数に同調させる方式がある。 In the case of using such an LC resonance circuit, there is a method of tuning to a target frequency by changing the capacitance of a capacitor in the resonance circuit.
LC共振回路の共振周波数は、動作時の発熱や負荷、あるいは周囲の温度や湿度の影響などの外的要因、さらに経年変化などにより変動することがある。 The resonance frequency of the LC resonance circuit may fluctuate due to external factors such as the influence of heat generation or load during operation, ambient temperature or humidity, and aging.
共振周波数を一定に保つために、特に電力回路では、熱に弱い半導体製品を避け、機械式の可変容量コンデンサを用いる方法が行われている。また、このような電力回路用のコンデンサには水冷式のものが市販されている。 In order to keep the resonance frequency constant, a method using a mechanical variable capacitor is employed, particularly in a power circuit, avoiding a semiconductor product that is weak against heat. In addition, water-cooled capacitors for such power circuits are commercially available.
また、特許文献1には発熱体部を設けた積層セラミックコンデンサが開示されており、コンデンサ本体の温度を一定に制御する方法が開示されている。 Patent Document 1 discloses a multilayer ceramic capacitor provided with a heating element, and discloses a method for controlling the temperature of the capacitor body to be constant.
LC共振回路など、コンデンサの容量を変えることによって目的とする共振周波数に調整する共振回路が使われている。この中でも、特に、コンデンサの発熱を伴う高周波電力用途では、機械式の可変容量コンデンサが用いられる。機械式の可変容量コンデンサは摺動部を有するため経年劣化しやすいという問題がある。また、前記機械部分の駆動系を必要とする。 A resonance circuit that adjusts to a target resonance frequency by changing the capacitance of a capacitor, such as an LC resonance circuit, is used. Among these, mechanical variable capacitors are used particularly for high-frequency power applications involving heat generation of capacitors. Since the mechanical variable capacitor has a sliding portion, there is a problem that it is likely to deteriorate over time. Further, a drive system for the mechanical part is required.
本発明は、上記事情を鑑みてなされたものであり、前記機械式の可変容量コンデンサやその駆動系を備える必要なく、安定して高周波電力用途にも使える周波数調整可能な共振回路を提供することを目的とする。 The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and provides a resonant circuit capable of frequency adjustment that can be stably used for high-frequency power applications without the need to include the mechanical variable capacitor and its drive system. With the goal.

一般にコンデンサは、種類によって程度の差はあるが、容量の温度依存性を有する。本発明は、前記温度依存性を利用することにより、LC共振回路を構成するコンデンサを適切な温度に昇降させることによりコンデンサの容量を変化させ、該共振回路の共振周波数を目的とする周波数に制御する。 In general, a capacitor has a temperature dependency of a capacitance, although the degree varies depending on the type. The present invention uses the temperature dependency to change the capacitance of the capacitor by raising and lowering the capacitor constituting the LC resonance circuit to an appropriate temperature, and control the resonance frequency of the resonance circuit to a target frequency. To do.
本発明に用いるコンデンサは、市販のコンデンサを用いることができる。コンデンサとしては、固体電解コンデンサ、積層セラミックコンデンサ、フィルムコンデンサ、マイラコンデンサなどを用いることができる。温度依存性が大きいコンデンサ(例えば、積層セラミックコンデンサなど)ほど、容量の変化率が大きく、制御する共振周波数範囲を広くできる点で好ましく、また、温度依存性が小さいコンデンサ(例えば、マイラコンデンサなど)ほど容量の変化率が小さく、精密に共振周波数範囲を制御できる点で好ましい。 A commercially available capacitor | condenser can be used for the capacitor | condenser used for this invention. As the capacitor, a solid electrolytic capacitor, a multilayer ceramic capacitor, a film capacitor, a mylar capacitor, or the like can be used. Capacitors with high temperature dependence (for example, multilayer ceramic capacitors) are preferable because they have a large capacitance change rate and can widen the resonance frequency range to be controlled, and capacitors with low temperature dependence (for example, mylar capacitors). It is preferable that the rate of change in capacitance is small and the resonance frequency range can be precisely controlled.
本発明で用いるコンデンサには、該コンデンサを加熱又は冷却する温度制御部が接続されている。コンデンサと温度制御部とは、一体のものとして作製されていてもよく、既存のコンデンサに温度制御部を載置してもよい。例えば、市販の水冷式コンデンサや、特許文献2に記載のようにコンデンサに温度制御部を設けたものなどが挙げられる。 A temperature controller for heating or cooling the capacitor is connected to the capacitor used in the present invention. The capacitor and the temperature control unit may be manufactured as a single unit, or the temperature control unit may be mounted on an existing capacitor. For example, a commercially available water-cooled condenser or a condenser provided with a temperature controller as described in Patent Document 2 can be used.
温度制御部における加熱・冷却方式は特に限定されないが、例えば、ペルチェ素子を用いる方法、電気抵抗による発熱体を用いる方法、気体もしくは液体の熱媒体を用いる方法があり、これらの方法を複数組み合わせて用いてもよい。特に、水を熱媒体として利用する方法が簡便かつ安価であり、さらに、市販の水冷式のコンデンサを使うこともできるので好ましい。 There are no particular restrictions on the heating / cooling method in the temperature control unit, but there are, for example, a method using a Peltier element, a method using a heating element based on electrical resistance, and a method using a gas or liquid heat medium, and a combination of these methods. It may be used. In particular, a method of using water as a heat medium is preferable because it is simple and inexpensive, and a commercially available water-cooled condenser can also be used.
本発明では、電力用途で電流量が多くコンデンサの発熱が多い場合、水冷式のコンデンサを好ましく用いることができる。水冷式のコンデンサであれば、冷却液の温度や流量を制御することで前述の共振周波数を制御することができる。冷却液は液体の熱媒体であれば特に制限なく用いることができる。冷却液は、熱容量や粘性といった特性およびコストの点から水が好ましく使用できる。 In the present invention, when the amount of current is large and the capacitor generates a lot of heat for power use, a water-cooled capacitor can be preferably used. In the case of a water-cooled capacitor, the above-described resonance frequency can be controlled by controlling the temperature and flow rate of the coolant. The cooling liquid can be used without particular limitation as long as it is a liquid heat medium. As the cooling liquid, water can be preferably used from the viewpoint of characteristics such as heat capacity and viscosity and cost.
冷却水の温度を制御する場合、水の温度を昇降させて温度制御してもよく、一定温度の温水と冷水を用意してこれらを混合して用いてもよい。これらの水は系外に排出しても循環させて用いてもよい。 When controlling the temperature of the cooling water, the temperature may be controlled by raising or lowering the temperature of the water, or hot water and cold water having a constant temperature may be prepared and mixed. These waters may be discharged out of the system or circulated.
本発明では、共振回路の周波数を調整するために、共振回路の共振周波数を検出して前記温度制御部にフィードバックさせる。 In the present invention, in order to adjust the frequency of the resonance circuit, the resonance frequency of the resonance circuit is detected and fed back to the temperature control unit.
前記共振周波数検出の方法は、特に限定されないが、例えば、共振回路の電圧電流、抵抗値から検出する方法、反射電力から検出する方法等がある。 The method of detecting the resonance frequency is not particularly limited, and examples include a method of detecting from the voltage current and resistance value of the resonance circuit and a method of detecting from the reflected power.
前記フィードバックは、コンデンサの温度特性が正の領域(温度が上がると容量が上がる領域)を用いるならば、共振周波数を上げるにはコンデンサの温度を下げるように制御すればよく、共振周波数を下げるにはコンデンサの温度を上げるように制御すればよい。また、コンデンサの温度特性が負の領域を用いるならば前記とは逆に制御すればよい。 When the feedback uses a region where the temperature characteristic of the capacitor is positive (a region where the capacitance increases as the temperature rises), the resonance frequency can be increased by controlling the capacitor temperature to be decreased, and the resonance frequency can be decreased. May be controlled to increase the temperature of the capacitor. Further, if a region where the temperature characteristic of the capacitor is negative is used, the control may be performed in the reverse manner.
