可調整功耗限制的電源供應器及調整功耗限制的方法Power supply with adjustable power consumption limit and method for adjusting power consumption limitation

本發明有關於電源供應器,特別是關於可調整功耗限制的電源供應器及調整功耗限制的方法。The present invention relates to power supplies, and more particularly to power supplies that can adjust power consumption limits and methods of adjusting power consumption limits.

電源供應器通常有很高的安全係數,也就是電源供應器實際上可以到達的最大穩定功耗,是高於規格書所標示的容許功耗(最大總功率輸出)。但是,過高的功耗,也同時會降低轉換效率。為了使電源供應器符合能量轉換效率的等級規範(根據80plus節能標準,市售電源供應器的電源轉換效率可分為白牌、銅牌、銀牌、金牌、鉑金牌等等級規範),電源供應器會被加上限流設定,而避免輸出功率高時的轉換效率不符各種等級規範。The power supply usually has a high safety factor, which is the maximum stable power consumption that the power supply can actually reach, which is higher than the allowable power consumption (maximum total power output) indicated in the specification. However, excessive power consumption also reduces conversion efficiency. In order to make the power supply meet the energy conversion efficiency rating specification (according to the 80plus energy-saving standard, the power conversion efficiency of the commercially available power supply can be divided into white, bronze, silver, gold, platinum, etc.), the power supply will It is set by the upper limit flow, and the conversion efficiency when the output power is high is not inconsistent with various grade specifications.

然而,對於部分使用者而言,可能會有需要提昇功耗的需求,例如,電腦主機的外接周邊裝置數量增加,或系統散熱需求因為氣候需要加強時,受限於電源供應器的限流設計,使得使用者必須更換容許功耗更高的產品。即使使用者僅是短時間的大功率需求而可暫時忽略能量轉換效率差的問題。However, for some users, there may be a need to increase power consumption, for example, the number of external peripherals of the computer mainframe increases, or the system cooling requirements are limited by the current limiting design of the power supply because the climate needs to be strengthened. Therefore, the user must replace the product that allows higher power consumption. Even if the user is only a short-time high power demand, the problem of poor energy conversion efficiency can be temporarily ignored.

鑑於上述問題,本發明提出可調整功耗限制的電源供應器及調整功耗限制的方法,可以讓使用者暫時性地提昇電源供應器的功耗限定,而正常使用下又能維持良好的能量轉換效率等級。In view of the above problems, the present invention provides a power supply capable of adjusting power consumption limitation and a method for adjusting power consumption limitation, which allows the user to temporarily increase the power consumption limit of the power supply, and maintain good energy under normal use. Conversion efficiency rating.

本發明提出一種可調整功耗限制的電源供應器,包括有一電力轉換電路、一電流偵測元件、一限流開關以及一控制單元。電力轉換電路用以由一輸入端接收一交流電力輸入,並轉換為一目標電壓輸出電流,而由一輸出端輸出目標電壓輸出電流。電流偵測元件設置於輸入端至輸出端之間,偵測一電流狀態。限流開關設置於輸入端至輸出端之間,用以切斷輸入端至輸出端之間的電路。控制單元用於控制限流開關的切換,且控制單元有至少一初始限流值,接收電流偵測元件回授的電流狀態,且控制單元的工作模式包含一限流模式及一提昇模式。The invention provides a power supply capable of adjusting power consumption limitation, comprising a power conversion circuit, a current detecting component, a current limiting switch and a control unit. The power conversion circuit is configured to receive an AC power input from an input terminal and convert it into a target voltage output current, and an output terminal outputs a target voltage output current. The current detecting component is disposed between the input end and the output end to detect a current state. The current limiting switch is disposed between the input end and the output end to cut off the circuit between the input end and the output end. The control unit is configured to control the switching of the current limiting switch, and the control unit has at least one initial current limiting value, and receives the current state fed back by the current detecting component, and the working mode of the control unit includes a current limiting mode and a lifting mode.

於限流模式,控制單元於電流偵測元件回授的電流狀態到達初始限流值時,控制限流開關切斷輸入端至輸出端之間的電路。In the current limiting mode, the control unit controls the current limiting switch to cut off the circuit between the input terminal and the output terminal when the current state fed back by the current detecting component reaches the initial current limiting value.

於提昇模式,控制單元於電流偵測元件回授的電流狀態到達初始限流值時,將初始限流值提昇為一調整限流值。In the boost mode, the control unit increases the initial current limit value to an adjusted current limit value when the current state fed back by the current detecting component reaches the initial current limit value.

本發明還提出一種調整功耗限制的方法,用於本發明任一實施例所述的電源供應器,所述方法包括有:由輸入端接收交流電力輸入,並轉換為目標電壓輸出電流,並由輸出端輸出目標電壓輸出電流;偵測輸入端至輸出端之間的電流狀態;以及依據一初始限流值,於電流狀態到達初始限流值時,切斷輸入端至輸出端之間的電路,或於電流狀態到達初始限流值時,將初始限流值提昇為一調整限流值。The present invention also provides a method for adjusting power consumption limitation, which is used in a power supply device according to any of the embodiments of the present invention, the method comprising: receiving an AC power input from an input terminal, and converting the input to a target voltage output current, and Outputting a target voltage output current from the output terminal; detecting a current state between the input terminal and the output terminal; and, according to an initial current limit value, cutting off the input terminal to the output terminal when the current state reaches the initial current limit value The circuit, or when the current state reaches the initial current limit value, raises the initial current limit value to an adjusted current limit value.

When the total output power needs to be increased, the user can increase the total output power limit of the power supply by the activation mode of the boost mode to meet the output power requirement. Therefore, the power supply that can adjust the power consumption limit can meet different user requirements, or the same user needs in different use environments.

請參閱圖1所示,為本發明實施例所揭露的一種可調整功耗限制的電源供應器100,包括有一電力轉換電路、一或多個散熱風扇150、一電流偵測元件160、一限流開關170以及一控制單元180。Referring to FIG. 1 , a power supply 100 capable of adjusting power consumption limitation according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a power conversion circuit, one or more cooling fans 150 , a current detecting component 160 , and a limit The flow switch 170 and a control unit 180.

如圖1所示,電力轉換電路用以由一輸入端102接收一交流電力輸入AC,並轉換為至少一目標電壓輸出電流(3.3V、5V、12V)以及一風扇驅動電力FV,而由一或多個輸出端104輸出目標電壓輸出電流(3.3V、5V、12V)。As shown in FIG. 1, the power conversion circuit is configured to receive an AC power input AC from an input terminal 102, and convert it into at least one target voltage output current (3.3V, 5V, 12V) and a fan drive power FV, and Or a plurality of output terminals 104 output a target voltage output current (3.3V, 5V, 12V).

散熱風扇150接收風扇驅動電力FV而進行轉動,以對電源供應器100進行強制氣冷散熱。電源供應器100運作會產生高熱,且通常被安裝在電腦機殼中,因此需要強制氣冷進行冷卻。並且電源供應器100需要針對發熱狀態調整強制氣冷的耗能,以避免過高的強制氣冷耗能影響整體能量效率以及產生不必要的噪音。通過風扇驅動電力FV的電流大小或是電壓大小的調整,就可以調整散熱風扇150的轉速。The cooling fan 150 receives the fan driving power FV and rotates to perform forced air cooling of the power supply 100. The operation of the power supply 100 generates high heat and is usually installed in a computer case, so forced air cooling is required for cooling. And the power supply 100 needs to adjust the energy consumption of the forced air cooling for the heat generation state, so as to avoid the excessive forced air cooling energy consumption affecting the overall energy efficiency and generating unnecessary noise. The rotation speed of the heat dissipation fan 150 can be adjusted by adjusting the current magnitude or voltage of the fan drive power FV.

如圖1所示,於一實施例中,電力轉換電路包含一整流電路110、一主變壓電路120、多個次變壓電路130以及一風扇變壓電路140。As shown in FIG. 1 , in one embodiment, the power conversion circuit includes a rectifier circuit 110 , a main transformer circuit 120 , a plurality of secondary transformer circuits 130 , and a fan transformer circuit 140 .

如圖1所示,整流電路110用以由輸入端102接收交流電力輸入AC,並轉換為一高壓直流電流DC1。於一具體實施例中,整流電路110可為全波整流電路110,例如橋式整流電路110;整流電路110亦可為半波整流電路110,例如以單一二極體順向電連接於輸入端102,但是半波整流電路110通常會有一半輸入成為無效功率。As shown in FIG. 1, the rectifier circuit 110 is configured to receive the AC power input AC from the input terminal 102 and convert it into a high voltage DC current DC1. In a specific embodiment, the rectifier circuit 110 can be a full-wave rectifier circuit 110, such as a bridge rectifier circuit 110; the rectifier circuit 110 can also be a half-wave rectifier circuit 110, for example, a single diode is electrically connected to the input in the forward direction. End 102, but half-wave rectification circuit 110 typically has half of the input becoming reactive power.

如圖1所示,主變壓電路120具有一次側線圈122及二次側線圈124。一次側線圈122電連接於整流電路110,以接收高壓直流電流DC1。透過二次側線圈124與一次側線圈122之感應,主變壓電路120轉換高壓直流電流DC1為低壓直流電流DC2,由二次側線圈124輸出低壓直流電流DC2。主變壓電路120也可以是其他形式的直流-直流轉換器(DC-to-DC converter),只要操作功率以及轉換效率符合規格要求即可。As shown in FIG. 1, the main transformer circuit 120 has a primary side coil 122 and a secondary side coil 124. The primary side coil 122 is electrically connected to the rectifier circuit 110 to receive the high voltage direct current DC1. Through the induction of the secondary side coil 124 and the primary side coil 122, the main transformer circuit 120 converts the high voltage direct current DC1 to a low voltage direct current DC2, and the secondary side coil 124 outputs a low voltage direct current DC2. The main transformer circuit 120 can also be other forms of DC-to-DC converters as long as the operating power and conversion efficiency meet the specifications.

如圖1所示,多個次變壓電路130分別電連接於主變壓電路120的二次側線圈124,分別將低壓直流電流DC2轉換為目標電壓輸出電流(3.3V、5V、12V),以將低壓直流電流DC2調整成不同輸出端104(3.3V, 5V, 12V)輸出的需求。次變壓電路130通常只需要小電流輸出,因此可應用非線圈型的直流-直流轉換器,例如由積體電路元件(IC)再加上幾個零件組成的轉換器。以電腦的電源供應器100為例,輸出端104至少需要3.3V, 5V及12V等不同目標電壓,以供周邊裝置以及主機板本身各元件所需的電力。這些不同的電壓分別有不同的電連接器作為輸出端104,並且每一種目標電壓對應的電連接器可能有二個以上。As shown in FIG. 1, the plurality of secondary transformer circuits 130 are electrically connected to the secondary side coils 124 of the main transformer circuit 120, respectively, and convert the low-voltage DC current DC2 into a target voltage output current (3.3V, 5V, 12V). To adjust the low voltage DC current DC2 to the output of different output terminals 104 (3.3V, 5V, 12V). The sub-transformer circuit 130 typically requires only a small current output, so a non-coil type DC-DC converter can be applied, such as a converter consisting of an integrated circuit component (IC) plus several parts. Taking the power supply 100 of the computer as an example, the output terminal 104 needs at least 3.3V, 5V and 12V and other target voltages for the power required by the peripheral devices and the components of the motherboard itself. These different voltages have different electrical connectors as the output terminals 104, and each of the target voltages may have more than two electrical connectors.

如圖1所示,風扇變壓電路140電連接於主變壓電路120的二次側線圈124,以接收低壓直流電流DC2,或風扇變壓電路140也可以電連接於整流電路110,以接收高壓直流電流DC1,使得風扇變壓電路140將高壓直流電流DC1或低壓直流電流DC2轉換為風扇驅動電力FV。散熱風扇150則電連接於風扇變壓電路140,以接收風扇驅動電力FV而進行轉動。於風扇變壓電路140接收低壓直流電流DC2而轉換為風扇驅動電力FV的一實施例中,風扇變壓電路140是多個次變壓電路130其中之一,輸出之風扇驅動電力FV即為目標電壓或目標電壓輸出電流(3.3V、5V、12V),而給予散熱風扇150的目標電壓或輸出電流則配合散熱風扇150的轉速需求調整。為了使實施方式之說明較為明確而易於理解,因此給予不同的命名。As shown in FIG. 1, the fan transformer circuit 140 is electrically connected to the secondary side coil 124 of the main transformer circuit 120 to receive the low voltage DC current DC2, or the fan transformer circuit 140 may be electrically connected to the rectifier circuit 110 for receiving. The high voltage direct current DC1 causes the fan transformer circuit 140 to convert the high voltage direct current DC1 or the low voltage direct current DC2 into the fan drive power FV. The cooling fan 150 is electrically connected to the fan transforming circuit 140 to receive the fan driving power FV for rotation. In an embodiment in which the fan transforming circuit 140 receives the low-voltage direct current DC2 and converts it into the fan driving power FV, the fan transforming circuit 140 is one of the plurality of secondary transformer circuits 130, and the output fan driving power FV is the target. The voltage or target voltage output current (3.3V, 5V, 12V), and the target voltage or output current given to the cooling fan 150 is adjusted in accordance with the rotational speed requirement of the cooling fan 150. In order to make the description of the embodiments clearer and easier to understand, different names are given.

如圖1所示,電流偵測元件160設置於輸入端102至輸出端104之間,偵測一電流狀態。電流狀態主要係用於判斷電源供應器100的輸出功率,電流值越大則輸出功率越大,電流偵測元件160的設置位置會使得輸出功率與電流值的對應關係改變。不過,輸出功率與電流值的對應關係是可以依據電流偵測元件160所在位置評估的,通常越接近輸出端104的電流偵測元件160所取得的電流值及對應功率會越接近電源供應器100的總輸出功率,而接近接近輸入端102的電流偵測元件160所取得的電流值及對應功率則會高於電源供應器100的總輸出功率(因為輸入端102至輸出端104之間存在著功率損耗)。不論電流偵測元件160所在位置為何,具有通常知識者都可以透過實驗或簡單的等效電路計算得到電流狀態與電源供應器100的總輸出功率的對應關係,而取得換算公式或對照表。As shown in FIG. 1, the current detecting component 160 is disposed between the input terminal 102 and the output terminal 104 to detect a current state. The current state is mainly used to determine the output power of the power supply 100. The larger the current value, the larger the output power, and the set position of the current detecting component 160 causes the corresponding relationship between the output power and the current value to change. However, the correspondence between the output power and the current value can be evaluated according to the position of the current detecting component 160. Generally, the current value and the corresponding power obtained by the current detecting component 160 near the output terminal 104 are closer to the power supply 100. The total output power, and the current value and corresponding power obtained by the current detecting component 160 close to the input terminal 102 is higher than the total output power of the power supply 100 (because there is a relationship between the input terminal 102 and the output terminal 104). Power loss). Regardless of the position of the current detecting element 160, a person having ordinary knowledge can calculate the correspondence between the current state and the total output power of the power supply 100 through an experiment or a simple equivalent circuit, and obtain a conversion formula or a comparison table.

如圖1所示,限流開關170設置於輸入端102至輸出端104之間,用以切斷輸入端102至輸出端104之間的電路。控制單元180儲存有至少一初始限流值,並且控制單元180用於接收電流偵測元件160回授的電流狀態。控制單元180的工作模式至少具有一限流模式及一提昇模式。As shown in FIG. 1, a current limiting switch 170 is disposed between the input terminal 102 and the output terminal 104 for cutting off the circuit between the input terminal 102 and the output terminal 104. The control unit 180 stores at least one initial current limit value, and the control unit 180 is configured to receive the current state fed back by the current detecting component 160. The operating mode of the control unit 180 has at least one current limiting mode and one boosting mode.

於限流模式,電源供應器100被要求有比較高的能量轉換效率,因此要避免總輸出功率過高而導致轉換效率下降的狀況發生。控制單元180依據初始限流值設定風扇驅動電力FV的電壓或電流大小,以驅動散熱風扇150轉動。所設定的風扇驅動電力FV可以使散熱風扇150的轉速可以滿足電源供應器100散熱需求,但不會超出電源供應器100散熱需求太多。In the current limiting mode, the power supply 100 is required to have a relatively high energy conversion efficiency, so it is necessary to avoid a situation in which the total output power is too high and the conversion efficiency is lowered. The control unit 180 sets the voltage or current magnitude of the fan driving power FV according to the initial current limiting value to drive the cooling fan 150 to rotate. The set fan driving power FV can make the speed of the cooling fan 150 meet the heat dissipation requirement of the power supply 100, but does not exceed the heat dissipation requirement of the power supply 100.

於限流模式,控制單元180並持續接收電流偵測元件160回授的電流狀態,以監控電源供應器100的總輸出功率。當電流偵測元件160回授的電流狀態到達初始限流值時,就是代表電源供應器100的總輸出功率已經到達總輸出功率上限。這時候控制單元180就會控制限流開關170暫時切斷輸入端102至輸出端104之間的電路。控制單元180可以切斷全部的輸出端104之輸出,也可以僅切斷部分輸出端104之輸出,而使電源供應器100的總輸出功率不超過初始限流值對應的總輸出功率。In the current limiting mode, the control unit 180 continuously receives the current state fed back by the current detecting component 160 to monitor the total output power of the power supply 100. When the current state fed back by the current detecting component 160 reaches the initial current limiting value, it means that the total output power of the power supply 100 has reached the upper limit of the total output power. At this time, the control unit 180 controls the current limiting switch 170 to temporarily cut off the circuit between the input terminal 102 and the output terminal 104. The control unit 180 may cut off the output of all of the output terminals 104, or may only cut off the output of the partial output terminals 104, so that the total output power of the power supply 100 does not exceed the total output power corresponding to the initial current limit value.

於提昇模式,使用者允許電源供應器100的轉換效率下降(接受較低的節能標準等級)而換取較大的總輸出功率。控制單元180一開始同樣地依據初始限流值設定風扇驅動電力FV。而在控制單元180於電流偵測元件160回授的電流狀態到達初始限流值時,控制單元180將初始限流值提昇為一調整限流值。此時,初始限流值暫時被停用,而以調整限流值來限制電源供應器100的輸出,在這裡的調整限流值會大於初始限流值,而電源供應器100的總輸出功率上限可以被提昇。In the boost mode, the user allows the power supply 100 to have a lower conversion efficiency (accepting a lower energy saving standard level) in exchange for a larger total output power. The control unit 180 initially sets the fan drive power FV in accordance with the initial current limit value. When the current state fed back by the current detecting component 160 of the control unit 180 reaches the initial current limiting value, the control unit 180 raises the initial current limiting value to an adjusted current limiting value. At this time, the initial current limit value is temporarily disabled, and the output of the power supply 100 is limited by adjusting the current limit value, where the adjusted current limit value is greater than the initial current limit value, and the total output power of the power supply 100 is The upper limit can be increased.

於電流偵測元件160回授的電流狀態到達調整限流值時,電源供應器100的總輸出功率已經到達調整後的總輸出功率上限,控制單元180才控制限流開關170切斷輸入端102至輸出端104之間的電路,而使得這時的電源供應器100可以有較大的功耗。同時,在電流狀態超過初始限流值並且還沒有到達調整限流值時,散熱風扇150的轉速可能會不足以滿足電源供應器100散熱需求,因此控制單元180同時依據調整限流值重新設定風扇驅動電力FV而提昇散熱風扇150的轉速。對應調整限流值的散熱風扇150的轉速,可以通過事先實驗取得,並且以表單對應關係的方式記錄,而由控制單元180進行儲存。控制單元180中可以儲存有多個調整限流值,以供使用者選擇其中之一,也就是電源供應器100可以有多個總輸出功率上限,而依據使用者的需求選擇其中之一,並切換控制單元180的工作模式為提昇模式。When the current state fed back by the current detecting component 160 reaches the adjusted current limit value, the total output power of the power supply 100 has reached the adjusted total output power upper limit, and the control unit 180 controls the current limiting switch 170 to cut off the input terminal 102. The circuit between the output terminals 104 allows the power supply 100 at this time to have a large power consumption. At the same time, when the current state exceeds the initial current limit value and the adjusted current limit value has not been reached, the rotation speed of the heat dissipation fan 150 may not be sufficient to meet the heat dissipation requirement of the power supply device 100, so the control unit 180 simultaneously resets the fan according to the adjusted current limit value. The electric power FV is driven to increase the rotational speed of the cooling fan 150. The rotation speed of the heat dissipation fan 150 corresponding to the adjustment of the current limit value can be obtained by an experiment in advance and recorded in a form correspondence relationship, and stored by the control unit 180. The control unit 180 can store a plurality of adjusted current limit values for the user to select one of them, that is, the power supply 100 can have multiple total output power upper limits, and select one according to the user's needs, and The operation mode of the switching control unit 180 is the boost mode.

參閱圖1所示,電源供應器100還包括一溫度偵測元件152,用以偵測一週遭溫度,傳輸至該控制單元180,並且控制單元180儲存有多個散熱風扇轉速值,對應於多個不同的週遭溫度區間。其中,該初始限流值以及該調整限流值分別於多個不同的週遭溫度區間中,具有對應的散熱風扇轉速值。因此,當控制單元180依據該初始限流值或該調整限流值設定散熱風扇150轉速時,係先判斷週遭溫度所在的週遭溫度區間,再取得對應的散熱風扇轉速值,藉以調整散熱風扇150轉速。因此,當週遭溫度降低,而控制單元180依據調整限流值進行限流設定時,散熱風扇150轉速仍有可能下降或是停止轉動。Referring to FIG. 1 , the power supply 100 further includes a temperature detecting component 152 for detecting the temperature of one week and transmitting to the control unit 180, and the control unit 180 stores a plurality of cooling fan speed values, corresponding to multiple A different ambient temperature range. The initial current limiting value and the adjusted current limiting value are respectively in a plurality of different circumferential temperature intervals, and have corresponding cooling fan rotational speed values. Therefore, when the control unit 180 sets the rotational speed of the cooling fan 150 according to the initial current limiting value or the adjusted current limiting value, the surrounding temperature range where the ambient temperature is located is first determined, and then the corresponding cooling fan rotational speed value is obtained, thereby adjusting the cooling fan 150. Rotating speed. Therefore, when the ambient temperature is lowered and the control unit 180 performs the current limiting setting according to the adjusted current limit value, the rotation speed of the heat dissipation fan 150 may still decrease or stop rotating.

參閱圖2,是本發明實施例所揭露的一種調整功耗限制的方法,用於本發明一或多個實施例的電源供應器100。所述調整功耗限制的方法,說明如下。Referring to FIG. 2, a method for adjusting power consumption limitation according to an embodiment of the present invention is provided for a power supply 100 of one or more embodiments of the present invention. The method of adjusting the power consumption limitation is described below.

首先,電源供應器100由一輸入端102接收一交流電力輸入AC,並轉換為至少一目標電壓輸出電流(3.3V、5V、12V)以及一風扇驅動電力FV,如步驟S110所示。First, the power supply 100 receives an AC power input AC from an input terminal 102 and converts it into at least one target voltage output current (3.3V, 5V, 12V) and a fan drive power FV, as shown in step S110.

電源供應器100以一輸出端104輸出目標電壓輸出電流(3.3V、5V、12V),並以風扇驅動電力FV驅動一散熱風扇150進行轉動,如步驟S120所示。The power supply 100 outputs a target voltage output current (3.3V, 5V, 12V) at an output terminal 104, and drives a heat dissipation fan 150 to rotate by the fan drive power FV, as shown in step S120.

於步驟S110中,通常會經過兩次電壓及電流轉換。於接收交流電力輸入AC之後,電源供應器100先以整流電路110將交流電力輸入AC轉換為一高壓直流電流DC1;接著,電源供應器100再以主變壓電路120將高壓直流電流DC1轉換為一低壓直流電流DC2。最後,次變壓電路130以及風扇變壓電路140分別電連接於主變壓電路120,分別轉換低壓直流電流DC2為一目標電壓輸出電流(3.3V、5V、12V)以及風扇驅動電力FV。在一些實施例中,風扇變壓電路140也可以轉換高壓直流電流DC1為風扇驅動電力FV。In step S110, voltage and current conversion are usually performed twice. After receiving the AC power input AC, the power supply 100 first converts the AC power input AC into a high voltage DC current DC1 by the rectifier circuit 110; then, the power supply 100 converts the high voltage DC current DC1 into the main transformer circuit 120. A low voltage DC current DC2. Finally, the secondary transformer circuit 130 and the fan transformer circuit 140 are electrically connected to the main transformer circuit 120, respectively, and convert the low-voltage DC current DC2 into a target voltage output current (3.3V, 5V, 12V) and the fan drive power FV. In some embodiments, the fan transformer circuit 140 can also convert the high voltage direct current DC1 to the fan drive power FV.

電源供應器100以電流偵測元件160偵測輸入端102至輸出端104之間的一電流狀態,而傳送電流值至電源供應器100的控制單元180,如步驟S130所示。The power supply 100 detects a current state between the input terminal 102 and the output terminal 104 by the current detecting component 160, and transmits the current value to the control unit 180 of the power supply 100, as shown in step S130.

依據一初始限流值,控制單元180持續判斷電流狀態是否到達初始限流值,如步驟S140所示。Based on an initial current limit value, the control unit 180 continues to determine whether the current state has reached the initial current limit value, as shown in step S140.

控制單元180同時也會判斷電源供應器100的提昇模式是否被啟用,如步驟S142所示。The control unit 180 also determines whether the boost mode of the power supply 100 is enabled, as shown in step S142.

若,提昇模式沒有被啟用,並且電流狀態到達初始限流值時,控制單元180切斷輸入端102至輸出端104之間的電路,從而限制電源供應器100的總輸出功率,如步驟S150所示。If the boost mode is not enabled, and the current state reaches the initial current limit value, the control unit 180 cuts off the circuit between the input terminal 102 and the output terminal 104, thereby limiting the total output power of the power supply 100, as in step S150. Show.

若,提昇模式被啟用,並且電流狀態到達初始限流值時,則控制單元180將初始限流值提昇為一調整限流值,如步驟S160所示。控制單元180同時依據調整限流值重新設定風扇驅動電力FV的電壓或電流大小而提昇散熱風扇150的轉速,如步驟S162所示。If the boost mode is enabled and the current state reaches the initial current limit value, the control unit 180 boosts the initial current limit value to an adjusted current limit value, as shown in step S160. The control unit 180 simultaneously resets the voltage or current of the fan drive power FV according to the adjusted current limit value to increase the rotational speed of the heat dissipation fan 150, as shown in step S162.

提昇模式被啟用後,控制單元180會在電流狀態到達調整限流值時,才會切斷輸入端102至輸出端104之間的電路,如步驟S170及步驟S150所示,從而提昇控制單元180的總輸出。After the boost mode is enabled, the control unit 180 will cut off the circuit between the input terminal 102 and the output terminal 104 when the current state reaches the adjusted current limit value, as shown in step S170 and step S150, thereby lifting the control unit 180. The total output.

如圖1所示,電源供應器100還包括一功率因素修正元件190(Power Factor Correction IC,PFC IC),設置於電力轉換電路中,用於修正功率因素,以降低電力轉換電路的無效功率。As shown in FIG. 1 , the power supply 100 further includes a Power Factor Correction IC (PFC IC) disposed in the power conversion circuit for correcting the power factor to reduce the reactive power of the power conversion circuit.

如圖3所示,於一實施例中,電流偵測元件160包含一第一電阻162及一第二電阻164。第一電阻162的一端連接於電力轉換電路之中的任一點,進行電壓取樣,而另一端連接於控制單元180的取樣端點182。第二電阻164的一端接地,而另一端連接於控制單元180的取樣端點182。藉由通過第一電阻162的一端的電流、第一電阻162以及第二電阻164,可以使得控制單元180取得一取樣電壓,藉以作為電流狀態,而換算為電力轉換電路的等效電流(即為電源供應器100的總功率輸出)。控制單元180被觸發判斷過電流或到達限流值的取樣電壓數值可能是固定不變,但是可以控制單元180可以依據初始限流值及調整限流值調整第一電阻162以及第二電阻164的阻值比例,提昇或降低對應的過電流(限流值)數值的大小(即為由初始限流值改變為調整限流值)。As shown in FIG. 3 , in one embodiment, the current detecting component 160 includes a first resistor 162 and a second resistor 164 . One end of the first resistor 162 is connected to any point in the power conversion circuit for voltage sampling, and the other end is connected to the sampling terminal 182 of the control unit 180. One end of the second resistor 164 is grounded, and the other end is connected to the sampling end point 182 of the control unit 180. By passing the current through the one end of the first resistor 162, the first resistor 162 and the second resistor 164, the control unit 180 can obtain a sampling voltage, which is converted into the equivalent current of the power conversion circuit (ie, The total power output of the power supply 100). The sampling unit 180 that is triggered by the control unit 180 to determine the overcurrent or the current limit value may be fixed, but the control unit 180 may adjust the first resistor 162 and the second resistor 164 according to the initial current limit value and the adjusted current limit value. The resistance ratio increases or decreases the value of the corresponding overcurrent (current limit value) value (ie, changes from the initial current limit value to the adjusted current limit value).

如圖4所示,為圖3中第一電阻162以及第二電阻164的阻值比例調整的一種電路設計方式。第一電阻162可包含二取樣電阻162a及一電晶體開關162b。二取樣電阻162a是並連設置,但是其中一個取樣電阻162a與電晶體開關162b串聯。電晶體開關162b由控制單元180控制。當電晶體開關162b未導通,就會僅有單一取樣電阻162a構成第一電阻162,而有較大的電阻值,使得取樣端點182的取樣電壓相對較低。當電晶體開關162b導通,二取樣電阻162a並聯形成第一電阻162而有較低的電阻值,使得取樣端點182的取樣電壓相對較高。As shown in FIG. 4, it is a circuit design method for adjusting the resistance ratio of the first resistor 162 and the second resistor 164 in FIG. The first resistor 162 can include a second sampling resistor 162a and a transistor switch 162b. The two sampling resistors 162a are connected in parallel, but one of the sampling resistors 162a is connected in series with the transistor switch 162b. The transistor switch 162b is controlled by the control unit 180. When the transistor switch 162b is not turned on, only a single sampling resistor 162a constitutes the first resistor 162, and has a large resistance value such that the sampling voltage of the sampling terminal 182 is relatively low. When the transistor switch 162b is turned on, the two sampling resistors 162a are formed in parallel to form the first resistor 162 with a lower resistance value such that the sampling voltage of the sampling terminal 182 is relatively high.

The second resistor 164 can include a second grounding resistor 164a and a transistor switch 164b. The two grounding resistors 164a are connected in parallel, but one of the grounding resistors 164a is connected in series with the transistor switch 164b. The transistor switch 164b is controlled by the control unit 180. When the transistor switch 164b is not turned on, only a single ground resistor 164a constitutes the second resistor 164, and has a large resistance value such that the sampling voltage of the sampling terminal 182 is relatively high. When the transistor switch 164b is turned on, the two sampling resistors 162a are formed in parallel to form the second resistor 164 with a lower resistance value such that the sampling voltage of the sampling terminal 182 is relatively low.

That is, the circuit design of FIG. 4 or FIG. 5 can be selected to replace the first resistor in FIG. 162 or second resistor 164. The resistance values of the first resistor 162 and the second resistor 164 can also be designed to be adjustable. For example, the circuit design of FIGS. 4 and 5 can be used simultaneously to replace the first resistor 162 and the second resistor 164 in FIG. , so that there are more changes in the resistance ratio, which can be used to set multiple adjustment current limit values.
