本發明提供一種返馳式轉換器及其控制電路,且特別是關於一種具改善過電流保護的返馳式轉換器及其控制電路。 The present invention provides a flyback converter and its control circuit, and more particularly to a flyback converter with improved overcurrent protection and its control circuit.

由於返馳式轉換器(flyback converter)具有高效率、低耗損、小尺寸及重量輕等優點,因此已被廣泛地用以作為各種電子產品的電源轉換裝置。為求返馳式轉換器能正常且穩定的運作,返馳式轉換器的保護機制是非常重要的部分,例如過電流保護功能。 Since the flyback converter has advantages of high efficiency, low loss, small size, and light weight, it has been widely used as a power conversion device for various electronic products. In order for the flyback converter to operate normally and stably, the protection mechanism of the flyback converter is a very important part, such as overcurrent protection.

傳統的返馳式轉換器只利用偵測一次側電流(primary peak current)當作輸出過電流的保護機制。傳統上,一次側電流的過電流保護點是固定的,所以在輸出端可實現越低電壓、越大電流的定功率(Constant Power)保護機制。然而,當返馳式轉換器的輸出電壓因為過電流而造成電壓下降時,過程中,過大的保護電流不僅輸入電源的功耗(input power dissipation)會隨之增加,而造成不必要的功率消耗,且需要使用更高電流額定的功率元件,而大幅增加成本的負擔。 The traditional flyback converter only uses the detection of the primary peak current as a protection mechanism for the output overcurrent. Traditionally, the overcurrent protection point of the primary current is fixed, so a constant voltage protection mechanism with lower voltage and larger current can be realized at the output end. However, when the output voltage of the flyback converter is caused by an overcurrent, the excessive protection current not only increases the input power dissipation but also causes unnecessary power consumption. And the need to use higher current rated power components, and greatly increase the burden of cost.

The control circuit includes an overcurrent determination unit and an output voltage detection unit. Over electricity The flow determining unit is coupled to the switching element, and outputs a control signal according to the current sensing signal and the set voltage. The current sensing signal corresponds to the current of the primary side winding. The output voltage detecting unit is coupled between the auxiliary winding and the overcurrent determining unit. The output voltage detecting unit adjusts the set voltage correspondingly according to the first voltage, so that the control signal is adaptively adjusted according to the first voltage.

〔具改善過電流保護的返馳式轉換器之實施例〕 [Embodiment of a flyback converter with improved overcurrent protection]

首先,請參照圖1,圖1是本發明實施例提供的一種具改善 過電流保護的返馳式轉換器的示意圖。如圖1所示,返馳式轉換器1包括變壓器10、開關元件20、電流感測單元30、控制電路40以及二次側電路50。變壓器10具有一次側繞組NP、二次側繞組NS以及輔助繞組NA。開關元件20耦接一次側繞組NP。電流感測單元30耦接於開關元件20與接地端GND之間。控制電路40包括輸出電壓偵測單元410以及過電流判斷單元420。二次側電路50耦接二次側繞組NS,以形成輸出電壓VOUT,並向負載(圖未示)進行供電。 First, please refer to FIG. 1 , which is an improvement provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Schematic diagram of a flyback converter with overcurrent protection. As shown in FIG. 1, the flyback converter 1 includes a transformer 10, a switching element 20, a current sensing unit 30, a control circuit 40, and a secondary side circuit 50. The transformer 10 has a primary side winding NP, a secondary side winding NS, and an auxiliary winding NA. The switching element 20 is coupled to the primary side winding NP. The current sensing unit 30 is coupled between the switching element 20 and the ground GND. The control circuit 40 includes an output voltage detecting unit 410 and an overcurrent determining unit 420. The secondary side circuit 50 is coupled to the secondary side winding NS to form an output voltage VOUT and supply power to a load (not shown).

於本實施例中,感測電阻RCS可作為電流感測單元30,並耦接於開關元件20與接地端GND之間。當開關元件20導通(turn on)時,感測電阻RCS可被用於感測流經一次側繞組NP之一次側電流,並產生代表一次側電流的電流感測信號VCS。然而,於其他實施例中,電流感測單元30的電路架構可有不同的電路架構,所屬技術領域具有通常知識者可以依據實際使用情況進行設計,故本發明不加以限制。 In the present embodiment, the sensing resistor RCS can be used as the current sensing unit 30 and coupled between the switching element 20 and the ground GND. When the switching element 20 is turned on, the sensing resistor RCS can be used to sense the primary side current flowing through the primary side winding NP and generate a current sensing signal VCS representing the primary side current. However, in other embodiments, the circuit architecture of the current sensing unit 30 may have different circuit architectures, and those skilled in the art may design according to actual usage, and the present invention is not limited thereto.

此外,於本實施例中,開關元件20為一金屬氧化物半導體場效應電晶體(MOSFET),開關元件20的閘極G耦接過電流判斷單元420,開關元件20的汲極D耦接一次側繞組NP,而開關元件20的源極S耦接過電流感測單元30。然而,於其他實施例中,開關元件20可以採用雙極性接面電晶體(BJT)、其他種類的電晶體或是其他種類的開關,故本發明不加以限制。 In addition, in the embodiment, the switching element 20 is a metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET), the gate G of the switching element 20 is coupled to the overcurrent determining unit 420, and the drain D of the switching element 20 is coupled once. The side winding NP and the source S of the switching element 20 are coupled to the current sensing unit 30. However, in other embodiments, the switching element 20 may be a bipolar junction transistor (BJT), other types of transistors, or other types of switches, and thus the invention is not limited.

承上述,當返馳式轉換器1接收輸入電壓VIN之後,藉由控制電路40控制開關元件20的切換,進而將輸入電壓VIN傳送至變壓器10之一次側繞組NP,以使變壓器10將輸入電壓VIN轉換成輸出電壓VOUT以向負載(圖未示)進行供電。進一步地說,當返馳式轉換器1於開關元件20導通(turn on)時,能量將儲存於變壓器10中,並根據流經開關元件20的一次側電流之大小與變化情形而對應的輸出電流感測信號VCS至過電流判斷單元420。此 外,一旦開關元件20截止(turn off)時,變壓器10所儲存之能量將經由二次側繞組NS釋放至返馳式轉換器1的輸出端OUT,同時變壓器10的輔助繞組NA會根據返馳式轉換器1輸出的輸出電壓VOUT而對應地產生第一電壓V1,並將第一電壓V1輸入至輸出電壓偵測單元410。 In the above, after the flyback converter 1 receives the input voltage VIN, the switching of the switching element 20 is controlled by the control circuit 40, thereby transmitting the input voltage VIN to the primary winding NP of the transformer 10, so that the transformer 10 will input the voltage. VIN is converted to an output voltage VOUT to supply power to a load (not shown). Further, when the flyback converter 1 is turned on at the switching element 20, the energy will be stored in the transformer 10, and the output corresponding to the change in the magnitude of the primary current flowing through the switching element 20 The current sensing signal VCS is to the overcurrent determining unit 420. this In addition, once the switching element 20 is turned off, the energy stored by the transformer 10 will be discharged to the output terminal OUT of the flyback converter 1 via the secondary winding NS, while the auxiliary winding NA of the transformer 10 will be returned according to the return. The output voltage VOUT outputted by the converter 1 generates a first voltage V1 correspondingly, and inputs the first voltage V1 to the output voltage detecting unit 410.

過電流判斷單元420耦接開關元件20,用以比較電流感測信號VCS與一設定電壓V2,並根據比較結果產生控制信號VG來控制開關元件20的切換。另一方面,輸出電壓偵測單元410耦接輔助繞組NA與過電流判斷單元420,用以接收第一電壓V1,並根據第一電壓V1對應地調整設定電壓V2,以使該控制信號VG可以根據該第一電壓V1做適應性調整,以進一步地控制開關元件20的切換。 The overcurrent determining unit 420 is coupled to the switching element 20 for comparing the current sensing signal VCS with a set voltage V2 and generating a control signal VG according to the comparison result to control switching of the switching element 20. On the other hand, the output voltage detecting unit 410 is coupled to the auxiliary winding NA and the overcurrent determining unit 420 for receiving the first voltage V1, and correspondingly adjusting the set voltage V2 according to the first voltage V1, so that the control signal VG can be The adaptive adjustment is made based on the first voltage V1 to further control the switching of the switching element 20.

舉例來說,由於輔助繞組NA係用以偵測輸出電壓VOUT並對應地輸出第一電壓V1,因此,當具改善過電流保護的返馳式轉換器1的輸出端OUT因過電流而造成輸出電壓VOUT下降時,輔助繞組NA所產生的第一電壓V1也會隨著下降。據此,輸出電壓偵測單元410會根據降低的第一電壓V1來對應地調整設定電壓V2,也就是說,將設定電壓V2降低。換言之,由於設定電壓V2的降低,過電流判斷單元420可以提早的運作以控制開關元件20的切換,以限制更大的能量傳遞至返馳式轉換器1的輸出端OUT,而達到保護返馳式轉換器1的效果。 For example, since the auxiliary winding NA is used to detect the output voltage VOUT and correspondingly output the first voltage V1, the output terminal OUT of the flyback converter 1 with improved overcurrent protection is output due to overcurrent. When the voltage VOUT falls, the first voltage V1 generated by the auxiliary winding NA also decreases. Accordingly, the output voltage detecting unit 410 adjusts the set voltage V2 correspondingly according to the reduced first voltage V1, that is, lowers the set voltage V2. In other words, due to the decrease of the set voltage V2, the overcurrent determination unit 420 can operate early to control the switching of the switching element 20 to limit the transfer of greater energy to the output terminal OUT of the flyback converter 1 to achieve protection tripping. The effect of the converter 1.

〔具改善過電流保護的返馳式轉換器電路之實施例〕 [Embodiment of a flyback converter circuit with improved overcurrent protection]

請參照圖2,圖2是本發明實施例提供的一種具改善過電流保護的返馳式轉換器的電路圖。圖2中的返馳式轉換器2與圖1中的外返馳式轉換器1二者結構相似,而以下將對二者所包括的相同元件以相同標號表示,並且進一步地說明,輸出電壓偵測單元410與過電流判斷單元420細部的電路架構。 Please refer to FIG. 2. FIG. 2 is a circuit diagram of a flyback converter with improved overcurrent protection according to an embodiment of the present invention. The flyback converter 2 of FIG. 2 is similar in structure to the outer flyback converter 1 of FIG. 1, and the same elements that are included in the following will be denoted by the same reference numerals, and further, the output voltage is further illustrated. The circuit structure of the detection unit 410 and the overcurrent determination unit 420 is detailed.

於本實施例中,輸出電壓偵測單元410包括第一二極體D1、 第一電阻R1、第一電容C1、第二電阻R2以及第二二極體D2。第一二極體D1的陽極端耦接輔助繞組NA。第一電阻R1的一端耦接第一二極體D1的陰極端。第一電容C1耦接第一電阻R1的另一端與接地端GND之間。第二電阻R2耦接第一電阻R1的另一端與接地端GND之間。第二二極體D2的陽極端耦接第二電阻R2的一端,第二二極體D2的陰極端耦接過電流判斷單元420。 In this embodiment, the output voltage detecting unit 410 includes a first diode D1. The first resistor R1, the first capacitor C1, the second resistor R2, and the second diode D2. The anode end of the first diode D1 is coupled to the auxiliary winding NA. One end of the first resistor R1 is coupled to the cathode end of the first diode D1. The first capacitor C1 is coupled between the other end of the first resistor R1 and the ground GND. The second resistor R2 is coupled between the other end of the first resistor R1 and the ground GND. The anode end of the second diode D2 is coupled to one end of the second resistor R2, and the cathode end of the second diode D2 is coupled to the overcurrent determining unit 420.

過電流判斷單元420包括第一比較器COMP1,其中第一比較器COMP1具有第一輸入端、第二輸入端與第一輸出端。第一輸入端耦接第二二極體D2的陰極端,用以接收第一電壓V1。第二輸入端耦接開關元件20的源極端S,以接收電流感測信號VCS。第一輸出端根據電流感測信號VCS與設定電壓V2的比較結果以輸出控制信號VG,來控制開關元件20的切換,其中設定電壓V2為一參考電壓OCP_Vref。 The overcurrent determination unit 420 includes a first comparator COMP1, wherein the first comparator COMP1 has a first input, a second input, and a first output. The first input end is coupled to the cathode end of the second diode D2 for receiving the first voltage V1. The second input terminal is coupled to the source terminal S of the switching element 20 to receive the current sensing signal VCS. The first output terminal controls the switching of the switching element 20 according to the comparison result of the current sensing signal VCS and the set voltage V2, wherein the set voltage V2 is a reference voltage OCP_Vref.

此外,電阻R3與電阻R4組成一分壓電路60,用以分壓直流偏壓VB以產生一參考電壓OCP_Vref,並將參考電壓OCP_Vref輸入至比較器COMP1的第一輸入端。 In addition, the resistor R3 and the resistor R4 form a voltage dividing circuit 60 for dividing the DC bias voltage VB to generate a reference voltage OCP_Vref, and inputting the reference voltage OCP_Vref to the first input terminal of the comparator COMP1.

接下來是進一步說明返馳式轉換器2的工作原理。具體地說,於操作時,返馳式轉換器1接收輸入電壓VIN之後,過電流判斷單元420中的第一比較器COMP1透過電流得到感測信號VCS與設定電壓V2的比較結果來產生控制信號VG,並根據控制信號VG切換開關元件20,以使變壓器10將輸入電壓VIN轉換為輸出電壓VOUT以向一負載(圖未示)進行供電。 Next, the working principle of the flyback converter 2 will be further explained. Specifically, in operation, after the flyback converter 1 receives the input voltage VIN, the first comparator COMP1 in the overcurrent determination unit 420 transmits a comparison result of the sensing signal VCS and the set voltage V2 to generate a control signal. VG, and switching the switching element 20 according to the control signal VG, so that the transformer 10 converts the input voltage VIN into an output voltage VOUT to supply power to a load (not shown).

然而,當返馳式轉換器1的輸出端因過電流而造成輸出電壓VOUT下降時,此時,輔助繞組NA根據所偵測到的輸出電壓VOUT而對應地產生第一電壓V1,並通過第一二極體D1以及電阻R1與電阻R2所形成的分壓電路來調整第一電壓V1,以形成較低的第一電壓V1,其中第一電容C1係用以濾除第一電壓V1的雜訊。 However, when the output terminal of the flyback converter 1 is caused by an overcurrent, the output voltage VOUT is decreased. At this time, the auxiliary winding NA correspondingly generates the first voltage V1 according to the detected output voltage VOUT, and passes the first a diode D1 and a voltage dividing circuit formed by the resistor R1 and the resistor R2 adjust the first voltage V1 to form a lower first voltage V1, wherein the first capacitor C1 is used to filter the first voltage V1. Noise.

接著,較低的第一電壓V1再經由第二二極體D2以注入到第 一比較器COMP1的第一輸入端,藉此降低了位於第一比較器COMP1的第一輸入端的設定電壓V2(即參考電壓OCP_Vref)。換言之,經由輸出電壓偵測單元410可以適當地調整位於第一比較器COMP1的第一輸入端的設定電壓V2。因此,由於設定電壓V2(即參考電壓OCP_Vref)的降低,使得第一比較器COMP1比較電流感測信號VCS與設定電壓V2(即參考電壓OCP_Vref)時,電流感測信號VCS高於設定電壓V2(即參考電壓OCP_Vref)會提早發生,也就是說,第一比較器COMP1會提早的輸出運作以輸出控制信號VG來控制開關元件20的切換。據此,降低一次側電流的大小,並進一步地限制了更大的能量傳遞至輸出端,以達到保護返馳式轉換器2的效果。 Then, the lower first voltage V1 is injected into the second via the second diode D2. A first input of the comparator COMP1, thereby reducing the set voltage V2 (ie, the reference voltage OCP_Vref) at the first input of the first comparator COMP1. In other words, the set voltage V2 at the first input terminal of the first comparator COMP1 can be appropriately adjusted via the output voltage detecting unit 410. Therefore, when the first comparator COMP1 compares the current sensing signal VCS with the set voltage V2 (ie, the reference voltage OCP_Vref) due to the decrease of the set voltage V2 (ie, the reference voltage OCP_Vref), the current sensing signal VCS is higher than the set voltage V2 ( That is, the reference voltage OCP_Vref) will occur early, that is, the first comparator COMP1 will perform an early output operation to output a control signal VG to control the switching of the switching element 20. Accordingly, the magnitude of the primary side current is reduced, and further energy transfer to the output terminal is further limited to achieve the effect of protecting the flyback converter 2.

換句話說,參照圖3,圖3是繪示圖2之具改善過電流保護的返馳式轉換器的輸出電壓與輸出電流關係圖。於圖3中,縱軸表示輸出電壓VOUT,而橫軸表示輸出電流IOUT。曲線C1表示傳統返馳式轉換器的輸出電壓VOUT與輸出電流IOUT的關係曲線。曲線C2表示本實施例的返馳式轉換器1的輸出電壓VOUT與輸出電流IOUT的關係曲線。 In other words, referring to FIG. 3, FIG. 3 is a diagram showing the relationship between the output voltage and the output current of the flyback converter with improved overcurrent protection of FIG. 2. In FIG. 3, the vertical axis represents the output voltage VOUT, and the horizontal axis represents the output current IOUT. Curve C1 represents the relationship between the output voltage VOUT of the conventional flyback converter and the output current IOUT. A curve C2 shows a relationship between the output voltage VOUT of the flyback converter 1 of the present embodiment and the output current IOUT.

由圖3可以得知,當傳統的返馳式轉換器與本實施例的返馳式轉換器1同時於輸出端發生過電流的情況時,本實施例的返馳式轉換器1中的過電流判斷單元420相較於傳統的返馳式轉換器會提早的動作,以限制更大的能量傳遞至輸出端。此外,曲線C1與C2可以得知,在輸出端發生過電流的情況時,本實施例的返馳式轉換器1相較於傳統的返馳式轉換器所輸出的輸出電壓VOUT較低,且輸出電流IOUT也較低。因此,透過輸出電壓偵測單元410偵測輸出電壓VOUT來對應地調整第一比較器COMP1的第一輸出端的設定電壓V2的方式,可以降低輸入電源的功耗外,也不需使用更高電流額定的功率元件。 It can be seen from FIG. 3 that when the conventional flyback converter and the flyback converter 1 of the present embodiment simultaneously generate an overcurrent at the output end, the flyback converter 1 of the present embodiment has The current determination unit 420 performs an earlier action than the conventional flyback converter to limit greater energy transfer to the output. In addition, the curves C1 and C2 can be known that the output voltage VOUT outputted by the flyback converter 1 of the present embodiment is lower than that of the conventional flyback converter when the overcurrent occurs at the output terminal, and The output current IOUT is also low. Therefore, by detecting the output voltage VOUT by the output voltage detecting unit 410 to correspondingly adjust the set voltage V2 of the first output end of the first comparator COMP1, the power consumption of the input power source can be reduced, and a higher current is not required. Rated power components.

〔具改善過電流保護的返馳式轉換器電路之另一實施例〕 [Another embodiment of a flyback converter circuit with improved overcurrent protection]

請參照圖4,圖4是本發明另一實施例提供的一種具改善過電流保護的返馳式轉換器的電路圖。圖4中的返馳式轉換器3與圖1、2中的返馳式轉換器1、2二者結構相似,而以下將對二者所包括的相同元件以相同標號表示。返馳式轉換器2、4二者的差異在於:輸出電壓偵測單元410、710中的第二二極體D2的耦接方式並不相同。此外,過電流判斷單元420、720中的第一比較器COMP1的第一輸出端所接收的設定電壓V2也不相同。另外,於此實施例中,進一步地說明,二次側電路50細部的電路架構。 Please refer to FIG. 4. FIG. 4 is a circuit diagram of a flyback converter with improved overcurrent protection according to another embodiment of the present invention. The flyback converter 3 of FIG. 4 is similar in structure to the flyback converters 1, 2 of FIGS. 1, 2, and the same elements that are included in the following will be denoted by the same reference numerals. The difference between the flyback converters 2 and 4 is that the coupling manners of the second diodes D2 in the output voltage detecting units 410 and 710 are not the same. Further, the set voltage V2 received by the first output terminal of the first comparator COMP1 in the overcurrent determination units 420, 720 is also different. In addition, in this embodiment, the circuit structure of the detail of the secondary side circuit 50 is further explained.

詳細地說,如圖4所示,輸出電壓偵測單元710包括第一二極體D1、第一電阻R1、第一電容C1、第二電阻R2以及第二二極體D2。第一二極體D1的陽極端耦接輔助繞組NA。第一電阻R1的一端耦接第一二極體D1的陰極端。第一電容C1耦接第一電阻R1的另一端與接地端GND之間。第二電阻R2耦接第一電阻R1的另一端與接地端GND之間。第二二極體D2的陰極端耦接第二電阻R2的一端,第二二極體D2的陽極端耦接過電流判斷單元720。 In detail, as shown in FIG. 4, the output voltage detecting unit 710 includes a first diode D1, a first resistor R1, a first capacitor C1, a second resistor R2, and a second diode D2. The anode end of the first diode D1 is coupled to the auxiliary winding NA. One end of the first resistor R1 is coupled to the cathode end of the first diode D1. The first capacitor C1 is coupled between the other end of the first resistor R1 and the ground GND. The second resistor R2 is coupled between the other end of the first resistor R1 and the ground GND. The cathode end of the second diode D2 is coupled to one end of the second resistor R2, and the anode end of the second diode D2 is coupled to the overcurrent determining unit 720.

過電流判斷單元720包括第一比較器COMP1,其中,第一比較器COMP1具有第一輸入端、第二輸入端與第一輸出端。第一輸入端耦接第二二極體D2的陽極端。第二輸入端耦接開關元件20的源極端S,以接收電流感測信號VCS。第一比較器COMP1的第一輸出端根據電流感測信號VCS與設定電壓V2的比較結果以輸出控制信號VG,來控制開關元件20的切換,其中,於此實施例中,設定電壓V2為一迴授信號的電壓VFB。 The overcurrent determination unit 720 includes a first comparator COMP1, wherein the first comparator COMP1 has a first input, a second input, and a first output. The first input end is coupled to the anode end of the second diode D2. The second input terminal is coupled to the source terminal S of the switching element 20 to receive the current sensing signal VCS. The first output end of the first comparator COMP1 controls the switching of the switching element 20 according to the comparison result of the current sensing signal VCS and the set voltage V2, wherein, in this embodiment, the set voltage V2 is one. The voltage VFB of the feedback signal.

另一方面,二次側電路50耦接二次側繞組NS,以形成輸出電壓VOUT,並向一負載(圖未示)進行供電。二次側電路50包括整流濾波電路510以及迴授電路520。整流濾波電路510包括整流二極體D3以及電容C2。整流二極體D2陽極耦接二次側繞組NS,整流二極體D2陰極耦接電容C2的其中一端,而電容C2耦接整 流二極體D2與接地端GND之間。整流濾波電路510用以對二次側繞組NS所輸出的電壓進行整流以及濾波。 On the other hand, the secondary side circuit 50 is coupled to the secondary side winding NS to form an output voltage VOUT, and supplies power to a load (not shown). The secondary side circuit 50 includes a rectification filter circuit 510 and a feedback circuit 520. The rectifying and filtering circuit 510 includes a rectifying diode D3 and a capacitor C2. The anode of the rectifier diode D2 is coupled to the secondary winding NS, the cathode of the rectifier diode D2 is coupled to one end of the capacitor C2, and the capacitor C2 is coupled. Between the diode diode D2 and the ground GND. The rectifying and filtering circuit 510 is configured to rectify and filter the voltage outputted by the secondary winding NS.

迴授電路520用以取樣輸出電壓VOUT以產生與負載對應的迴授信號的電壓VFB,其中,迴授電路520包括電阻R5~R7、電容C3、光耦合器U1的發光二極體521a以及三端並聯穩壓器U2(Three-Terminal Shunt Regulator),三端並聯穩壓器U2具有陽極端A、陰極端K及參考端R。值得一提的是,光耦合器U1的光電晶體521b是設置於一次側電路中,並與電阻R8串聯以形成一分壓電路80,用以形成迴授信號的電壓VFB,並輸入至第一比較器COMP1的第一輸入端。 The feedback circuit 520 is configured to sample the output voltage VOUT to generate a voltage VFB of the feedback signal corresponding to the load, wherein the feedback circuit 520 includes the resistors R5 R R7 , the capacitor C3 , the light emitting diode 521 a of the photocoupler U1 , and the third The three-terminal shunt regulator U2 has an anode terminal A, a cathode terminal K and a reference terminal R. It is worth mentioning that the photonic crystal 521b of the photocoupler U1 is disposed in the primary side circuit and is connected in series with the resistor R8 to form a voltage dividing circuit 80 for forming a voltage VFB of the feedback signal and inputting it to the first A first input of a comparator COMP1.

進一步地說,迴授電路520透過電阻R6和R7取樣輸出電壓VOUT,接著,取樣後的輸出電壓輸入到三端並聯穩壓器U2的參考端R,而三端並聯穩壓器U2透過其內部電路進而產生對應的流過電阻R5的電流If。由此可知,電流If的大小係對應於負載的大小。此外,電流If通過光耦合器U1的發光二極體521a時,在一次側電路中的光耦合器U1的光電晶體521b也會產生對應的電流。因此,在光耦合器U1的光電晶體521b產生的電流大小也是對應於負載量,可作為迴授信號的電壓VFB。 Further, the feedback circuit 520 samples the output voltage VOUT through the resistors R6 and R7, and then the sampled output voltage is input to the reference terminal R of the three-terminal shunt regulator U2, and the three-terminal shunt regulator U2 passes through the inside. The circuit in turn generates a corresponding current If flowing through resistor R5. It can be seen from this that the magnitude of the current If corresponds to the magnitude of the load. Further, when the current If passes through the light-emitting diode 521a of the photocoupler U1, a corresponding current is also generated in the photo-crystal 521b of the photocoupler U1 in the primary-side circuit. Therefore, the magnitude of the current generated in the photo-crystal 521b of the photocoupler U1 also corresponds to the amount of load, and can be used as the voltage VFB of the feedback signal.

接下來是進一步說明返馳式轉換器3的工作原理。詳細地說,返馳式轉換器1接收輸入電壓VIN之後,過電流判斷單元720中的第一比較器COMP1透過電流得到感測信號VCS與設定電壓V2(即迴授信號的電壓VFB)的比較結果來產生控制信號VG,並根據控制信號VG切換開關元件20,以使變壓器10將輸入電壓VIN轉換為輸出電壓VOUT以向一負載(圖未示)進行供電。因此,於正常操作時,輔助繞組NA根據輸出電壓VOUT而對應地產生的第一電壓V1,接著,第一電壓V1通過第一二極體D1以及電阻R1與電阻R2形成的分壓電路之後,此時的第一電壓V1的電壓準位是高於迴授信號的電壓VFB,也就是說,此時第二二極體D2 陰極端的電壓準位高於第二二極體D2陽極端的電壓準位,而由於二極體的特性,電流只能往單一方向流動。也就是說,電流只能從陽極流向陰極,而不能從陰極流向陽極。因此,返馳式轉換器3於正常操作時,輸出電壓偵測單元710無法將第一電壓V1輸出至第一比較器COMP1的第一輸入端。 Next, the working principle of the flyback converter 3 will be further explained. In detail, after the flyback converter 1 receives the input voltage VIN, the first comparator COMP1 in the overcurrent determination unit 720 transmits a comparison between the sense signal VCS and the set voltage V2 (ie, the voltage VFB of the feedback signal). As a result, the control signal VG is generated, and the switching element 20 is switched in accordance with the control signal VG to cause the transformer 10 to convert the input voltage VIN into the output voltage VOUT to supply power to a load (not shown). Therefore, in normal operation, the auxiliary winding NA correspondingly generates the first voltage V1 according to the output voltage VOUT, and then the first voltage V1 passes through the first diode D1 and the voltage dividing circuit formed by the resistor R1 and the resistor R2. At this time, the voltage level of the first voltage V1 is higher than the voltage VFB of the feedback signal, that is, the second diode D2 at this time. The voltage level at the cathode end is higher than the voltage level at the anode end of the second diode D2, and due to the characteristics of the diode, the current can only flow in a single direction. That is, current can only flow from the anode to the cathode, but not from the cathode to the anode. Therefore, when the flyback converter 3 is in normal operation, the output voltage detecting unit 710 cannot output the first voltage V1 to the first input terminal of the first comparator COMP1.

然而,當返馳式轉換器3的輸出端因過電流而造成輸出電壓VOUT下降時,此時,輔助繞組NA根據所偵測到輸出電壓VOUT對應地輸出的第一電壓V1也會下降,使得第二二極體D2陰極端的電壓準位低於第二二極體D2陽極端的電壓準位,此時,迴授信號的電壓VFB會透過第二二極體D2進行放電,藉此降低了位於第一比較器COMP1的第一輸入端的設定電壓V2(即迴授信號的電壓VFB)。換言之,透過導通第二二極體D2的方式,來適當地調整位於第一比較器COMP1的第一輸入端的設定電壓V2(即迴授信號的電壓VFB)。 However, when the output terminal of the flyback converter 3 is caused by an overcurrent, the output voltage VOUT is decreased. At this time, the first voltage V1 correspondingly output by the auxiliary winding NA according to the detected output voltage VOUT is also lowered, so that The voltage level at the cathode end of the second diode D2 is lower than the voltage level at the anode terminal of the second diode D2. At this time, the voltage VFB of the feedback signal is discharged through the second diode D2, thereby reducing the voltage. The set voltage V2 at the first input of the first comparator COMP1 (ie, the voltage VFB of the feedback signal). In other words, the set voltage V2 (ie, the voltage VFB of the feedback signal) located at the first input end of the first comparator COMP1 is appropriately adjusted by turning on the second diode D2.

據此,由於設定電壓V2(即迴授信號的電壓VFB)的降低,使得第一比較器COMP1比較電流感測信號VCS與設定電壓V2(即迴授信號的電壓VFB)時,電流感測信號VCS高於設定電壓V2(即迴授信號的電壓VFB)會提早發生,也就是說,第一比較器COMP1會提早運作以輸出控制信號VG來控制開關元件20的切換,此外,由於開關元件20的切換可以提早的進行切換,因此,降低一次側電流的大小,並進一步地限制了更大的能量傳遞至輸出端,以達到保護返馳式轉換器3的效果。 Accordingly, the current sense signal is compared when the first comparator COMP1 compares the current sense signal VCS with the set voltage V2 (ie, the voltage VFB of the feedback signal) due to the decrease of the set voltage V2 (ie, the voltage VFB of the feedback signal). The VCS is higher than the set voltage V2 (ie, the voltage VFB of the feedback signal), that is, the first comparator COMP1 operates early to output the control signal VG to control the switching of the switching element 20, and further, due to the switching element 20 The switching can be switched early, thus reducing the magnitude of the primary side current and further limiting the transfer of more energy to the output to achieve the effect of protecting the flyback converter 3.

〔本發明可能之功效〕 [The possible effects of the invention]

綜上所述,本發明實施例所提供具改善過電流保護的返馳式轉換器及其控制電路可以根據輔助繞組偵測輸出電壓,並對應地調整設定電壓的方式,使得開關元件20可以提早的運作,以更有效地保護返馳式轉換器。 In summary, the flyback converter with improved overcurrent protection and the control circuit thereof according to the embodiments of the present invention can detect the output voltage according to the auxiliary winding and adjust the set voltage correspondingly, so that the switching component 20 can be early The operation to protect the flyback converter more effectively.

換句話說,當輸出電壓因過電流而造成電壓變低時,輸出電 壓偵測單元可以根據輔助繞組偵測到的輸出電壓而對應地調整設定電壓,使得過電流判斷單元可以根據調整的設定電壓提早動作以輸出控制信號來控制開關元件,以限制更大的能量傳遞至輸出端。因此,不僅可以降低返馳式轉換器整體功耗,且不需使用更高電流額定的功率元件,更不會增加成本的負擔。 In other words, when the output voltage is low due to overcurrent, the output is low. The voltage detecting unit can adjust the set voltage correspondingly according to the output voltage detected by the auxiliary winding, so that the overcurrent determining unit can act early according to the adjusted set voltage to output a control signal to control the switching element to limit greater energy transfer. To the output. Therefore, not only the overall power consumption of the flyback converter can be reduced, but also the power components with higher current ratings are not required, and the burden of cost is not increased.

總而言之,本發明實施例所提供的具改善過電流保護的返馳式轉換器及其控制電路可以利用較少的元件以及最小的線路變更,即可達到降低輸入電源的功耗(input power dissipation)。 In summary, the flyback converter with improved overcurrent protection and the control circuit thereof provided by the embodiments of the present invention can reduce the input power dissipation by using fewer components and minimum line changes. .
