Abstract

A flyback converter with self-driven synchronous rectifier utilizes a transistor rectifier instead of the conventional diode rectifier to reduce the conduction loss. However, the transistor rectifier has to be driven by a proper gate driver. In convention, a control-driven gate driver is used, but the control-driven gate driver is implemented with a complex and expensive integrated circuit. Therefore, the self-driven gate driver has been developed, but the circuit of the conventional self-driven gate driver is still too complex. The flyback converter with self-driven synchronous rectifier is disclosed by this invention uses the secondary driving winding to connect with a diode, a switch controller and a switch in series to form a driving circuit, which implements the self-driven gate driver, wherein the switch controller determines to turn on/off the switch. And, a current detecting circuit connected to the switch controller is employed to detect the current passing the synchronous rectifier, connected to the secondary winding, to control the switch. Thus, the flyback converter with self-driven synchronous rectifier disclosed by this invention can simplify the complexity of the circuit and to decrease the cost effectively.

[Prior Art] The conventional flyback converter mainly utilizes a transformer and a pole body as a rectifier, which is also called a diode rectifier, for transmitting the energy of the power source to an external load circuit. The transformer circuit has a separated primary side winding and a secondary ai winding, wherein the primary side coil is used to connect an external power source, and the secondary side coil is an induction coil for sensing the magnetic flux of the primary side coil (magnetic Flux changes to generate an induced voltage, and a rectifier is connected to form a power circuit for driving an external load circuit (i〇ad). Please refer to Figure 1, which shows the circuit of a conventional flyback converter. The transformer 10 has a primary side coil Lp and a secondary side coil Ls which are separated from each other, and the primary side coil Lp is for connecting an external voltage source 'and a secondary side coil ls, and is connected to the outside via a power circuit Load circuit (l〇ad). The black dots on the primary side coil Lp and the secondary side coil Ls in the figure indicate the same polarity (simultaneously positive or negative). The primary side coil Ls is connected to the diode D! to form a power circuit in which the diode is used for rectification, also referred to as a diode rectifier. One output of the power circuit is a voltage output terminal, and the other end is a ground terminal, and a capacitor C is connected between the voltage output terminal and the ground terminal. , called the load capacitor.

t &lt; Ton):二極體D2受反向偏壓(reverse biased)而關閉。因n-MOS電晶體M2之本體二極體受反向 偏壓(reverse biased)而關閉,使電流偵測電路700之一次側 線圈La無法導通電流,故電流偵測電路700之二次側線圈 Lb無感應電流’可被視為短路’雙極電晶體Q3之基射極因 無偏壓而關閉,開關200之雙極電晶體亦關閉,n-MOS 電晶體M2被關閉。即使n-MOS電晶體M2之閘極積存電荷, 也會很快地經由開關200之電晶體Q2及電阻R2而釋放,使 n-MOS電晶體M2之閘-源二極的跨壓降為0(VGS=0),因而關 閉n-MOS電晶體M2。因此,電力電路不導通,由輸出電容 C。驅動外部負載電路之電壓V。。因此,在開啟期間Τοη(0&lt;ί&lt;Τοη) 内’電流由n-MOS電晶體M2之閘極流向電晶體Q2 ’即開關 200之訊號輸出端240提供低電壓訊號。 重置期間Tr (Ton &lt;

Provide external load circuit ^ 200906047 Pressure v〇. A disadvantage of such a flyback converter is that the diode rectifier will result in severe conduction loss. In order to reduce the conduction loss, a synchronous rectifier is generally used instead of the diode rectification 11, for example, a metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (M〇s) is often used to implement a synchronous rectifier. In fact, please refer to Figure 2 for the circuit. Comparing the circuit of the flyback converter shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 1 , the difference is that an n-MOS transistor (n-type oxidized metal semiconductor field effect transistor) is used instead of the diode as a synchronous rectifier. However, this design requires an integrated circuit controller IC to control the conduction of the n_M〇S transistor (10). For a similar design of the flyback converter, please refer to Figure 3, which differs from the circuit of Figure 2 in that the n_MC)s transistor is connected to the ground of the load coil. The flyback converter shown in Figure 3 is called the low-voltage side drive-back converter (1〇w side dnvenflybackC0nverter)' and the circuit of the second type circuit is called the high-voltage side drive-back converter. (high side driven flyback converter). Such a design increases the complexity and cost of the circuit by using the integrated circuit controller 1C.

Connect the diode. Next, Fig. 8 is a circuit diagram showing an embodiment of a self-driven flyback converter of a low voltage end self-driven synchronous rectifier. As shown, the synchronous rectifier 300 is an n-MOS transistor M2. The switch 200 is implemented as an interlocking type circuit comprising an NPN bipolar transistor Qi, a PNP bipolar transistor Q2, and a resistor R2. The emitter of the bipolar transistor Qi is connected to the emitter of the bipolar transistor Q2 and the junction is defined as the signal output 240. The bases of the two bipolar transistors Q!, Q2 are connected and the connection point is defined as the control terminal 210. Resistor R2 is connected across the collector and base of bipolar transistor Q2. The collectors of the bipolar transistors Qi, Q2 are defined as a first voltage connection terminal 220 and a second voltage connection terminal 230, respectively. The switch controller 600 is an NPN bipolar transistor Q3 whose emitter is simultaneously defined as a first input terminal 610 and an output terminal 620. The base and collector are defined as a second input terminal 630 and a reference terminal 640, respectively. The current detecting circuit 700 includes a transformer circuit, a resistor R5, a capacitor C2, and a diode D3. The transformer circuit includes a primary side coil La and a secondary side coil Lb. The two ends of the primary side coil La are defined as a current inflow terminal 710 and a current outflow terminal 730, which are respectively connected between the inflow terminal 320 of the synchronous rectifier 300 and the voltage output terminal. The two ends of the secondary side coil U are defined as a first voltage output terminal 720 and a second voltage output terminal 740, respectively (black dots in the figure indicate the same polarity). The two ends of the secondary side coil Lb are connected to the resistor R5 for converting the induced current into a voltage signal, and the capacitor C3 is used for voltage regulation. The cathode and the anode of the diode D3 are respectively connected to the first voltage output terminal 720 and A second voltage output 740 is used to ensure current direction. 12 200906047 The resistor R6 is connected between the second voltage output terminal 740 of the current detecting circuit 700 and the second input terminal 630 of the switch controller 600 (the base of the bipolar transistor Q3) for adjusting the transmission to the switch controller. 600 voltage value. The conduction of the circuit during one cycle of the power supply is divided into the on period, the reset period, and the delay period (the definition has been described in the prior art t). When the above embodiment is applied, the conduction of each section is as follows: On period Ton (0 &lt; t &lt; Ton): The diode D2 is turned off by reverse biased. Since the body diode of the n-MOS transistor M2 is turned off by reverse biased, the primary side coil La of the current detecting circuit 700 cannot conduct current, so the secondary side coil of the current detecting circuit 700 Lb no induced current 'can be regarded as short circuit' The base emitter of bipolar transistor Q3 is turned off due to no bias, the bipolar transistor of switch 200 is also turned off, and n-MOS transistor M2 is turned off. Even if the gate of the n-MOS transistor M2 accumulates charge, it is quickly released via the transistor Q2 of the switch 200 and the resistor R2, so that the gate-source diode of the n-MOS transistor M2 has a voltage drop of zero. (VGS = 0), thus turning off the n-MOS transistor M2. Therefore, the power circuit is not conducting, and the output capacitor C is used. The voltage V that drives the external load circuit. . Therefore, during the turn-on period, the current flowing from the gate of the n-MOS transistor M2 to the transistor Q2', that is, the signal output terminal 240 of the switch 200, provides a low voltage signal. Reset period Tr (Ton &lt; t &lt; Ton + Tr): The diode D2 is turned on by forward biased. Since the body diode of the n-MOS transistor M2 is turned on by the forward biased, the current can flow into the black point end of the primary side coil La of the current debt measuring circuit 700, and the secondary side coil Lb is generated. The induced current flows from the black point end and is converted into a voltage through the resistor R5. This voltage is clamped by the capacitor C2 and clamped by the diode D3 to make the voltage between the base and the emitter of the bipolar transistor Q3 forward. The bias voltage, thus turning on the bipolar transistor Q3, the bipolar transistor 开关 of the switch 13 200906047 200 is also turned on, and the signal output terminal 240 of the switch 2 提供 provides a high potential to turn on the n_M 〇s transistor, thereby turning on The source (inflow terminal 320) and the drain (outflow terminal 330) form a path for the power circuit. Therefore, during the reset period 1; (1'.11&lt;^&lt;1'.1+1+1;) the current is flown by the transistor (^ flows to 1 to 之间5 between the transistors M2, that is, the switch 200 The signal wheel terminal 24 〇 provides a high voltage signal. The delay period Tdead (Ton+Tr &lt; t &lt; Ton+Tr+Tdead): the primary side coil Lp of the flyback transformer 100, the secondary side drive coil Ld, and the second The side power coil Li is no longer discharged and no current flows. At this time, the diode D2 is unbiased to form an open circuit, the n-MOS transistor is turned off, the power circuit is not turned on, and the output capacitor c is driven by the output capacitor c. The voltage V. The principle of the self-driven flyback converter with self-driven synchronous rectifier at the high voltage end and the self-driven flyback converter with the self-driven synchronous rectifier at the low voltage end, only need to pay attention to the polarity of the synchronous rectifier to be connected. In the other embodiment, when a PNP bipolar transistor is used as the synchronous rectifier 3〇〇, an external diode is required to generate a voltage across the inflow terminal 320 and the outflow terminal 330, and the synchronous rectifier thereof The implementation is as shown in Fig. 9. In summary, a driving power is formed by using the secondary side driving coil. The switch controller on the driving circuit is controlled by the current detecting circuit to open or close the synchronous rectifier on the power circuit, and the power circuit thus forms a loop or an open circuit, thereby completing the self-driven synchronous rectifier.
