本發明係有關一種電源供應器的零電流偵測器及方法,特別是關於一種使用電容耦合的零電流偵測器及方法。The present invention relates to a zero current detector and method for a power supply, and more particularly to a zero current detector and method using capacitive coupling.
在某些應用中,零電流偵測是相常重要的技術。零電流偵測技術通常使用在半諧振式(quasi-resonant mode)的馳返式、升壓式或降壓式系統中,用以穩定輸出電流或達成某些保護功能。圖1顯示習知具有零電流偵測功能的馳返式電源供應器,其中控制積體電路10控制與變壓器T1的一次線圈Lp串聯的開關M1,以將輸入電壓Vin轉換為輸出電壓Vo,在提供至輸出端Vo的二次側電流Is降至零時,變壓器T1的輔助線圈La上將產生高頻信號經電阻Rzcd至控制積體電路10的腳位ZCD,控制積體電路10因而觸發零電流信號Szcd以穩定輸出電流或達成某些保護功能。In some applications, zero current detection is a very important technique. Zero current detection techniques are typically used in a quasi-resonant mode of flyback, boost or buck systems to stabilize the output current or achieve some protection. 1 shows a conventional flyback power supply having a zero current detection function, wherein the control integrated circuit 10 controls a switch M1 connected in series with the primary winding Lp of the transformer T1 to convert the input voltage Vin into an output voltage Vo. When the secondary side current Is supplied to the output terminal Vo falls to zero, a high frequency signal is generated on the auxiliary coil La of the transformer T1 via the resistor Rzcd to the pin ZCD of the control integrated circuit 10, and the integrated circuit 10 is controlled to thereby trigger zero. The current signal Szcd stabilizes the output current or achieves some protection.
圖2顯示圖1中信號的時序圖,在時間t1時,控制積體電路10的腳位GD送出高準位的信號以打開(turn on)開關M1,使得一次側電流Ip開始上升,在開關M1打開期間,輔助線圈La上的信號Vaux等於(-Vin)×Nf/Np,其中Np為一次側線圈Lp的線圈匝數,Nf為輔助線圈La的線圈匝數。在時間t2時,控制積體電路10的腳位GD上的信號轉為低準位以關閉(turn off)開關M1,此時二次側線圈Ls上的二次側電流Is由峰值開始下降,在開關M1關閉期間,輔助線圈La上的信號Vaux等於Vo×Nf/Ns,其中Ns為二次側線圈Ls的線圈匝數。在時間t3時,二次側電流Is降至零,導致二次側線圈Ls上的電壓出現高頻振盪,進而在輔助線圈La上產生高頻信號12,當控制積體電路10偵測到腳位ZCD上出現高頻信號12時,觸發零電流信號Szcd。然而,習知的零電流偵測方法需要額外的腳位來實現,這使得成本提高。2 shows a timing chart of the signal of FIG. 1. At time t1, the pin GD of the control integrated circuit 10 is sent to a signal of a high level to turn on the switch M1, so that the primary side current Ip starts to rise, at the switch. During the opening of M1, the signal Vaux on the auxiliary coil La is equal to (-Vin) × Nf / Np, where Np is the number of turns of the primary side coil Lp, and Nf is the number of turns of the auxiliary coil La. At time t2, the signal on the pin GD of the control integrated circuit 10 is turned to a low level to turn off the switch M1, at which time the secondary side current Is on the secondary side coil Ls starts to decrease from the peak value. During the closing of the switch M1, the signal Vaux on the auxiliary coil La is equal to Vo × Nf / Ns, where Ns is the number of turns of the secondary side coil Ls. At time t3, the secondary side current Is drops to zero, causing a high frequency oscillation of the voltage on the secondary side coil Ls, thereby generating a high frequency signal 12 on the auxiliary coil La, and detecting the integrated circuit 10 detecting the foot. When the high frequency signal 12 appears on the bit ZCD, the zero current signal Szcd is triggered. However, conventional zero current detection methods require additional pins to implement, which increases cost.
因此,一種利用多功能腳位實現零電流偵測的裝置及方法,乃為所冀。Therefore, an apparatus and method for realizing zero current detection using a multi-function pin is a problem.
本發明的目的之一,在於提出一種電源供應器的零電流偵測器及方法。One of the objects of the present invention is to provide a zero current detector and method for a power supply.
本發明的目的之一,在於提出一種減少腳位數量的零電流偵測器及方法。One of the objects of the present invention is to provide a zero current detector and method for reducing the number of pins.
根據本發明,一種電源供應器的零電流偵測器包括感測電路、電容及控制積體電路,在提供至該電源供應器的輸出端的電流下降至零時,該感測電路產生高頻信號,該電容將該高頻信號的交流成分耦合至該控制積體電路的腳位,以使該控制積體電路觸發零電流偵測信號。由於該電容可以避免該腳位的電壓準位被感測電路所輸出的低頻信號及直流成分影響,因此該腳位還可以用來達成零電流偵測以外的其他功能,以減少腳位數量。According to the present invention, a zero current detector of a power supply includes a sensing circuit, a capacitor, and a control integrated circuit that generates a high frequency signal when a current supplied to an output of the power supply drops to zero. The capacitor couples the AC component of the high frequency signal to the pin of the control integrated circuit to cause the control integrated circuit to trigger the zero current detection signal. Since the capacitor can prevent the voltage level of the pin from being affected by the low frequency signal and the DC component outputted by the sensing circuit, the pin can also be used to implement functions other than zero current detection to reduce the number of pins.
根據本發明,一種電源供應器的零電流偵測方法包括在提供至該電源供應器的輸出端的電流下降至零時產生高頻信號,並藉由電容將該高頻信號的交流成分耦合至控制積體電路的腳位,以使該控制積體電路觸發零電流信號。According to the present invention, a zero current detecting method for a power supply device includes generating a high frequency signal when a current supplied to an output terminal of the power supply source drops to zero, and coupling an alternating current component of the high frequency signal to a control by a capacitor The pin of the integrated circuit is such that the control integrated circuit triggers a zero current signal.
圖3顯示本發明零電流偵測器20的第一實施例,在圖3的馳返式電源供應器中,電阻R1及R2分壓輸入電壓Vin產生與輸入電壓Vin相關的電壓Vind至控制積體電路10的腳位MULT,控制積體電路10根據腳位MULT的電壓Vind取得輸入電壓資訊。圖4顯示圖3中信號的時序圖。參照圖3及圖4,零電流偵測器20包括電容Czcd、控制積體電路10及變壓器T1的輔助線圈La,輔助線圈La作為感測電路用以偵測二次側電流Is,電容Czcd連接在控制積體電路10的腳位MULT及輔助線圈La之間,電容Czcd阻擋輔助線圈La上的低頻信號及直流成分輸入至腳位MULT,因此零電流偵測器20不影響腳位MULT的電壓Vind的準位,控制積體電路10可以根據電壓Vind取得正確的輸入電壓資訊。當二次側電流Is下降至零時,如時間t4所示,輔助線圈La產生高頻信號12,電容Czcd將高頻信號12的交流成分耦合至腳位MULT,使得電壓Vind出現下降突波,在電壓Vind低於預設值Vpre時,控制積體電路10觸發零電流信號Szcd以達成零電流偵測。在控制積體電路10中,可以使用比較器比較電壓Vind及預設值Vpre以觸發零電流信號Szcd。從圖4可知,在開關M1打開的瞬間,輔助線圈La亦會產生高頻信號使電壓Vind低於預設值Vpre,如時間t5所示,因此控制積體電路10中將設計一些機制避免誤觸發零電流信號Szcd,例如控制積體電路10只有在開關M1關閉期間才能觸發零電流信號Szcd,或是利用遮蔽信號來遮蔽不正確的零電流信號Szcd。3 shows a first embodiment of the zero current detector 20 of the present invention. In the flyback power supply of FIG. 3, the resistors R1 and R2 divide the input voltage Vin to generate a voltage Vind associated with the input voltage Vin to the control product. The pin MULT of the body circuit 10 controls the integrated circuit 10 to obtain input voltage information based on the voltage Vind of the pin MULT. Figure 4 shows a timing diagram of the signals in Figure 3. Referring to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, the zero current detector 20 includes a capacitor Czcd, a control integrated circuit 10, and an auxiliary coil La of the transformer T1. The auxiliary coil La is used as a sensing circuit for detecting the secondary current Is, and the capacitor Czcd is connected. Between the pin MULT of the control integrated circuit 10 and the auxiliary coil La, the capacitor Czcd blocks the low frequency signal and the DC component of the auxiliary coil La from being input to the pin MULT, so the zero current detector 20 does not affect the voltage of the pin MULT. The Vind level, the control integrated circuit 10 can obtain the correct input voltage information according to the voltage Vind. When the secondary side current Is drops to zero, as indicated by time t4, the auxiliary coil La generates a high frequency signal 12, and the capacitor Czcd couples the alternating current component of the high frequency signal 12 to the pin MULT, causing a drop surge in the voltage Vind. When the voltage Vind is lower than the preset value Vpre, the control integrated circuit 10 triggers the zero current signal Szcd to achieve zero current detection. In the control integrated circuit 10, the comparator voltage comparison Vind and the preset value Vpre can be used to trigger the zero current signal Szcd. As can be seen from FIG. 4, at the moment when the switch M1 is turned on, the auxiliary coil La also generates a high-frequency signal to make the voltage Vind lower than the preset value Vpre, as shown by time t5, so that some mechanisms are designed to prevent mistakes in the control integrated circuit 10. The zero current signal Szcd is triggered, for example, the control integrated circuit 10 can only trigger the zero current signal Szcd during the off period of the switch M1, or shield the incorrect zero current signal Szcd with the mask signal.
圖5顯示本發明零電流偵測器20的第二實施例,其與圖3的電路同樣包括電容Czcd及控制積體電路10,但是使用變壓器T1的一次側線圈Lp作為感測電路來偵測二次側電流Is,電容Czcd連接在腳位MULT及一次側線圈Lp之間,電容Czcd阻擋一次側線圈Lp上的低頻信號及直流成分輸入至腳位MULT,因此零電流偵測器20不影響腳位MULT的電壓Vind的準位,控制積體電路10可以根據電壓Vind取得正確的輸入電壓資訊。圖6顯示圖5中信號的時序圖,如時間t6所示,當二次側電流Is下降至零時,一次側線圈Lp產生高頻信號12,電容Czcd將高頻信號12的交流成分耦合至腳位MULT,使得電壓Vind出現下降突波,在電壓Vind低於預設值Vpre時,控制積體電路10觸發零電流信號Szcd以達成零電流偵測。FIG. 5 shows a second embodiment of the zero current detector 20 of the present invention, which includes the capacitor Czcd and the control integrated circuit 10 as in the circuit of FIG. 3, but uses the primary side coil Lp of the transformer T1 as a sensing circuit to detect The secondary side current Is, the capacitor Czcd is connected between the pin MULT and the primary side coil Lp, and the capacitor Czcd blocks the low frequency signal on the primary side coil Lp and the DC component input to the pin MULT, so the zero current detector 20 does not affect The level of the voltage Vind of the pin MULT, the control integrated circuit 10 can obtain the correct input voltage information according to the voltage Vind. 6 shows a timing chart of the signal of FIG. 5. As shown by time t6, when the secondary side current Is drops to zero, the primary side coil Lp generates a high frequency signal 12, and the capacitance Czcd couples the alternating current component of the high frequency signal 12 to The pin MULT causes the voltage Vind to have a falling spurt. When the voltage Vind is lower than the preset value Vpre, the control integrated circuit 10 triggers the zero current signal Szcd to achieve zero current detection.
圖7顯示本發明零電流偵測器20的第三實施例,其與圖3的電路同樣包括電容Czcd及控制積體電路10,但是使用變壓器T1的二次側線圈LS作為感測電路來偵測二次側電流Is,電容Czcd連接在腳位MULT及二次側線圈Ls之間,電容Czcd阻擋二次側線圈Ls上的低頻信號及直流成分輸入至腳位MULT,因此零電流偵測器20不影響腳位MULT的電壓Vind的準位,控制積體電路10可以根據電壓Vind取得正確的輸入電壓資訊。圖8顯示圖7中信號的時序圖,如時間t7所示,當二次側電流Is下降至零時,二次側線圈Ls上產生高頻信號12,電容Czcd將高頻信號12的交流成分耦合至腳位MULT,使得電壓Vind出現下降突波,在電壓Vind低於預設值Vpre時,控制積體電路10觸發零電流信號Szcd以達成零電流偵測。7 shows a third embodiment of the zero current detector 20 of the present invention, which includes the capacitor Czcd and the control integrated circuit 10 as well as the circuit of FIG. 3, but uses the secondary side coil LS of the transformer T1 as a sensing circuit to detect The secondary side current Is is measured, the capacitor Czcd is connected between the pin MULT and the secondary side coil Ls, and the capacitor Czcd blocks the low frequency signal and the DC component of the secondary side coil Ls from being input to the pin MULT, so the zero current detector 20 does not affect the level of the voltage Vind of the pin MULT, and the control integrated circuit 10 can obtain the correct input voltage information according to the voltage Vind. 8 is a timing chart showing the signal of FIG. 7. As shown by time t7, when the secondary side current Is drops to zero, the high frequency signal 12 is generated on the secondary side coil Ls, and the capacitance Czcd is the alternating current component of the high frequency signal 12. Coupling to the pin MULT causes the voltage Vind to have a falling spurt. When the voltage Vind is lower than the preset value Vpre, the control integrated circuit 10 triggers the zero current signal Szcd to achieve zero current detection.
圖9顯示本發明零電流偵測器20的第四實施例,在圖9的升壓式電源供應器中,控制積體電路10控制與電感L1串聯的開關M1以使電感L1充放電,進而將輸入電壓Vin轉換為輸出電壓Vo,電阻R1及R2分壓輸入電壓Vin產生電壓Vind至控制積體電路10的腳位MULT,使控制積體電路10可以取得輸入電壓資訊。圖9的零電流偵測器20包括電容Czcd、控制積體電路10及輔助線圈La,輔助線圈La作為感測電路用以偵測電感L1的電流IL,電容Czcd連接在控制積體電路10的腳位MULT及輔助線圈La之間,電容Czcd阻擋輔助線圈La上的低頻信號及直流成分輸入至腳位MULT,因此零電流偵測器20不影響腳位MULT的電壓Vind的準位,控制積體電路10可以根據電壓Vind取得正確的輸入電壓資訊。圖10顯示圖9中信號的時序圖,其中波形22係通過開關M1的電流,波形24係通過二極體D1的電流,當控制積體電路10打開開關M1時,如時間t8所示,電感的電流IL經開關M1及電阻Rcs流向接地端,此時電感L1充電,電流IL開始上升,如波形22所示。當控制積體電路10關閉開關M1時,如時間t9所示,電感的電流IL經二極體D1流向輸出端Vo,此時電感L1放電,電流IL開始下降,如波形24所示。當電流IL下降至零時,如時間t10所示,輔助線圈La產生高頻信號12,電容Czcd將高頻信號12的交流成分耦合至腳位MULT,使得電壓Vind出現下降突波,在電壓Vind低於預設值Vpre時,控制積體電路10觸發零電流信號Szcd以供達成零電流偵測。9 shows a fourth embodiment of the zero current detector 20 of the present invention. In the boost power supply of FIG. 9, the control integrated circuit 10 controls the switch M1 connected in series with the inductor L1 to charge and discharge the inductor L1. The input voltage Vin is converted into an output voltage Vo, and the resistors R1 and R2 divide the input voltage Vin to generate a voltage Vind to the pin MULT of the control integrated circuit 10, so that the control integrated circuit 10 can obtain the input voltage information. The zero current detector 20 of FIG. 9 includes a capacitor Czcd, a control integrated circuit 10 and an auxiliary coil La. The auxiliary coil La is used as a sensing circuit for detecting the current IL of the inductor L1. The capacitor Czcd is connected to the control integrated circuit 10. Between the pin MULT and the auxiliary coil La, the capacitor Czcd blocks the low frequency signal and the DC component of the auxiliary coil La from being input to the pin MULT, so the zero current detector 20 does not affect the level of the voltage Vind of the pin MULT, and the control product The body circuit 10 can obtain correct input voltage information based on the voltage Vind. Figure 10 is a timing diagram of the signal of Figure 9, wherein the waveform 22 is the current through the switch M1, and the waveform 24 is the current through the diode D1. When the control integrated circuit 10 turns on the switch M1, as shown by time t8, the inductance The current IL flows to the ground through the switch M1 and the resistor Rcs. At this time, the inductor L1 is charged, and the current IL starts to rise, as shown by the waveform 22. When the control integrated circuit 10 turns off the switch M1, as shown by time t9, the current IL of the inductor flows through the diode D1 to the output terminal Vo, and at this time, the inductor L1 is discharged, and the current IL starts to decrease, as shown by the waveform 24. When the current IL drops to zero, as indicated by time t10, the auxiliary coil La generates a high frequency signal 12, and the capacitor Czcd couples the alternating current component of the high frequency signal 12 to the pin MULT, causing the voltage Vind to appear a falling glitch at the voltage Vind Below the preset value Vpre, the control integrated circuit 10 triggers the zero current signal Szcd for zero current detection.
圖11顯示本發明零電流偵測器20的第五實施例,在圖11的降壓式電源供應器中,控制積體電路10控制開關M1以使電感L1充放電,進而將輸入電壓Vin轉換為輸出電壓Vo,電阻R1及R2分壓輸入電壓Vin產生電壓Vind至控制積體電路10的腳位MULT,使控制積體電路10可以取得輸入電壓資訊。圖11的零電流偵測器20包括電容Czcd、控制積體電路10及輔助線圈La,輔助線圈La作為感測電路用以偵測電感L1的電流IL,電容Czcd連接在控制積體電路10的腳位MULT及輔助線圈La之間,電容Czcd阻擋輔助線圈La上的低頻信號及直流成分輸入至腳位MULT,因此零電流偵測器20不影響腳位MULT的電壓Vind的準位,控制積體電路10可以根據電壓Vind取得正確的輸入電壓資訊。圖12顯示圖11中信號的時序圖,其中波形26係通過開關M1的電流,波形28係通過二極體D1的電流,當控制積體電路10打開開關M1時,如時間t11所示,電感的電流IL經開關M1及電阻Rcs流向接地端,此時電感L1充電,電流IL開始上升,如波形26所示。當控制積體電路10關閉開關M1時,如時間t12所示,電感的電流IL經二極體D1流向輸出端Vo,此時電感L1放電,電流IL開始下降,如波形28所示。當電流IL下降至零時,如時間t13所示,輔助線圈La產生高頻信號12,電容Czcd將高頻信號12的交流成分耦合至腳位MULT,使得電壓Vind出現下降突波,在電壓Vind低於預設值Vpre時,控制積體電路10觸發零電流信號Szcd以供達成零電流偵測。11 shows a fifth embodiment of the zero current detector 20 of the present invention. In the buck power supply of FIG. 11, the control integrated circuit 10 controls the switch M1 to charge and discharge the inductor L1, thereby converting the input voltage Vin. For the output voltage Vo, the resistors R1 and R2 divide the input voltage Vin to generate a voltage Vind to the pin MULT of the control integrated circuit 10, so that the control integrated circuit 10 can obtain the input voltage information. The zero current detector 20 of FIG. 11 includes a capacitor Czcd, a control integrated circuit 10 and an auxiliary coil La. The auxiliary coil La is used as a sensing circuit for detecting the current IL of the inductor L1, and the capacitor Czcd is connected to the control integrated circuit 10. Between the pin MULT and the auxiliary coil La, the capacitor Czcd blocks the low frequency signal and the DC component of the auxiliary coil La from being input to the pin MULT, so the zero current detector 20 does not affect the level of the voltage Vind of the pin MULT, and the control product The body circuit 10 can obtain correct input voltage information based on the voltage Vind. Figure 12 is a timing diagram of the signal of Figure 11, wherein waveform 26 is the current through switch M1, and waveform 28 is the current through diode D1. When control integrated circuit 10 turns on switch M1, as shown at time t11, the inductor The current IL flows to the ground through the switch M1 and the resistor Rcs. At this time, the inductor L1 is charged, and the current IL starts to rise, as shown by the waveform 26. When the integrated circuit 10 is controlled to turn off the switch M1, as shown by time t12, the current IL of the inductor flows through the diode D1 to the output terminal Vo, at which time the inductor L1 is discharged and the current IL begins to decrease, as shown by the waveform 28. When the current IL drops to zero, as indicated by time t13, the auxiliary coil La generates a high frequency signal 12, and the capacitor Czcd couples the alternating current component of the high frequency signal 12 to the pin MULT, causing the voltage Vind to appear a falling glitch at the voltage Vind Below the preset value Vpre, the control integrated circuit 10 triggers the zero current signal Szcd for zero current detection.
在前面的實施例中,零電流偵測器20是利用偵測輸入電壓資訊的腳位MULT來實現,因此可以減少腳位數量。除了腳位MULT之外,本發明的零電流偵測器20也可以使用其他功能的腳位,例如用以偵測開關M1電流的腳位CS。在圖13顯示本發明零電流偵測器20的第六實施例,在圖13的馳返式電源供應器中,當開關M1打開時,一次側電流Ip通過與開關M1串聯的電阻Rcs以產生電壓Vcs至控制積體電路10的腳位CS,控制積體電路10根據電壓Vcs可以判斷通過開關M1的一次側電流Ip的值。圖14顯示圖13中信號的時序圖,其中波形30為一次側電流Ip,波形32為二次側電流Is。參照圖13及圖14,圖13的零電流偵測器20與圖3的電路同樣包括電容Czcd、控制積體電路10及變壓器T1的輔助線圈La,但是電容Czcd係連接在控制積體電路10的腳位CS及輔助線圈La之間,由於電容Czcd阻擋輔助線圈La的低頻信號及直流成分輸入至腳位CS,因此零電流偵測器20不影響腳位CS的電壓Vcs的準位,控制積體電路10可以根據電壓Vcs判斷一次側電流Ip的值。當二次側電流Is下降至零時,如時間t14所示,輔助線圈La產生高頻信號12,電容Czcd將高頻信號12的交流成分耦合至腳位CS,使得電壓Vcs出現下降突波,在電壓Vcs低於預設值Vpre時,控制積體電路10觸發零電流信號Szcd以達成零電流偵測。從圖14可知,在開關M1打開的瞬間,輔助線圈La亦會產生高頻信號使電壓Vcs低於預設值Vpre,如時間t15所示,為了避免誤觸發零電流信號Szcd,此實施例的控制積體電路10提供一遮蔽信號ZCD_Mask在開關M1打開瞬間遮蔽電壓Vcs與預設值Vpre的比較結果。同樣的,在圖5、圖7、圖9及圖11所示的零電流偵測器20中,電容Czcd連接腳位MULT的一端也可以改成連接至腳位CS。In the foregoing embodiment, the zero current detector 20 is implemented by using the MULT pin for detecting the input voltage information, thereby reducing the number of pins. In addition to the pin MULT, the zero current detector 20 of the present invention can also use pins of other functions, such as the pin CS for detecting the current of the switch M1. A sixth embodiment of the zero current detector 20 of the present invention is shown in FIG. 13. In the flyback power supply of FIG. 13, when the switch M1 is turned on, the primary side current Ip is generated by the resistor Rcs in series with the switch M1. The voltage Vcs is controlled to the pin CS of the integrated circuit 10, and the control integrated circuit 10 can determine the value of the primary side current Ip passing through the switch M1 based on the voltage Vcs. Fig. 14 is a timing chart showing the signal of Fig. 13, in which the waveform 30 is the primary side current Ip and the waveform 32 is the secondary side current Is. 13 and FIG. 14, the zero current detector 20 of FIG. 13 includes the capacitor Czcd, the control integrated circuit 10, and the auxiliary coil La of the transformer T1, but the capacitor Czcd is connected to the control integrated circuit 10 as well. Between the pin CS and the auxiliary coil La, since the capacitor Czcd blocks the low frequency signal of the auxiliary coil La and the DC component is input to the pin CS, the zero current detector 20 does not affect the level of the voltage Vcs of the pin CS, and controls The integrated circuit 10 can determine the value of the primary side current Ip based on the voltage Vcs. When the secondary side current Is drops to zero, as indicated by time t14, the auxiliary coil La generates a high frequency signal 12, and the capacitor Czcd couples the alternating current component of the high frequency signal 12 to the pin CS, causing a drop surge in the voltage Vcs. When the voltage Vcs is lower than the preset value Vpre, the control integrated circuit 10 triggers the zero current signal Szcd to achieve zero current detection. As can be seen from FIG. 14, at the moment when the switch M1 is turned on, the auxiliary coil La also generates a high frequency signal such that the voltage Vcs is lower than the preset value Vpre, as shown at time t15, in order to avoid false triggering of the zero current signal Szcd, the embodiment of this embodiment The control integrated circuit 10 provides a comparison result of the masking signal ZCD_Mask at the moment when the switch M1 is turned on, and the masking voltage Vcs is compared with the preset value Vpre. Similarly, in the zero current detector 20 shown in FIG. 5, FIG. 7, FIG. 9 and FIG. 11, one end of the capacitor Czcd connection pin MULT can also be changed to be connected to the pin CS.
本發明的零電流偵測器20也可以不與其他功能共用腳位,即電容Czcd連接的腳位只有零電流偵測功能。The zero current detector 20 of the present invention may also not share the pin position with other functions, that is, the pin connected to the capacitor Czcd has only a zero current detecting function.
