Definitions
- This invention relates generally to switching power supplies and, more particularly, to two-stage switching converters with transformer separation.
- One area in which the invention finds particular utility is in connection with high end battery chargers.
- Switching power supplies presently employed in high end battery chargers typically use a single stage off-line converter 1, most commonly a flyback converter. Rectified and filtered line voltage V M is applied to the converter which provides isolation from the mains and regulates the output voltage V R . To regulate the charging current I C H, the converter needs a feedback signal from the output. The feedback is normally provided by an optocoupler 2 which passes the signal to the control 3 and which provides isolation.
- a typical circuit is depicted in FIG. 1. The present invention is directed to overcoming one or more of the problems or disadvantages associated with the present state of the art.
- an object of the invention to provide a power supply with the following features and advantages: 1. Compensation for variations in input voltage is effected in two different stages of the circuit, permitting design of each part for a smaller regulation range, resulting in more efficient circuits. In this way the output is stabilized against variations in the input voltage. 2. The reduced regulation range in each stage also results in reduced voltage and current stress in the components, permitting the use of lower cost components to provide the same performance.
- the invention provides a two-stage switching power supply as claimed in claim 1.
- Advantageous embodiments are defined in the dependent claims.
- efficiency is further enhanced by utilizing the secondary converters as a synchronous rectifier with less losses of the diode used in conventional relevant technology.
- the first stage in a preferred embodiment, is a half-bridge, resonant, self- oscillating circuit, operating with zero voltage switching (ZNS)with much lower switching losses, recovery of the leakage energy, and clamping of the voltage of the switches to the voltage after the line rectifier.
- ZNS zero voltage switching
- FIG. 1 is a schematic of a typical switching power supply presently used in high end battery chargers
- FIG. 2 is a block diagram of the present invention
- FIG. 3 is an electrical schematic of a preferred embodiment of a portion of the first stage of block diagram of FIG. 2;
- FIG. 4 is a graphical representation of voltage and current waveforms associated with operation of the invention
- FIG. 5 is an electrical schematic of a preferred embodiment of another portion of the first stage of the circuit.
- FIG. 6 is an electrical schematic of a preferred embodiment of the second stage of the circuit of the invention. Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention
- the switching power supply of the invention comprises a first stage and a second stage , denoted in the block diagram of FIG. 2 as SI and S2.
- SI power supplied from a conventional AC power source 10 is delivered through a common EMI (electromagnetic interference) filter represented by box 12.
- Filter 12 is connected to rectifier 14, the output of which is connected to a self oscillating, half-bridge, resonant inverter 16 operating in open loop with transformer 18 in the output to provide isolation from power source 10.
- Feed-forward control is used, as disclosed later in more detail, to compensate for line variations. The feed-forward control will provide very small output voltage variation compared with input voltage variation.
- the secondary of transformer 18 provides an input to post regulator circuitry 20, a preferred embodiment of which is discussed hereinafter, the output of which is connected across load 22, depicted as a battery receiving a charge from the switching power supply of the invention.
- Regulator 20 is connected to the positive side of load 22 through an additional winding of the transformer, indicated by box 24, and capacitor Cl is connected in parallel with load 22.
- Half bridge 16 includes a pair of solid state switching devices, shown in FIG. 3 in the form of MOSFETs Ql and Q2, operating in a complementary manner.
- the circuit self-oscillation is effected by generating gate signals for MOSFETs Ql and Q2 utilizing a square wave current source 26.
- the gates of the MOSFETs are the control inputs of the MOSFETs.
- the sinusoidal inductor current is sensed with a current transformer with three secondaries SI, S2 and S3. Secondaries SI and S2 drive the gates of power MOSFETs Ql and Q2, respectively, and the third secondary S3 supplies the control signal to current source 26.
- the change of polarity of the gate voltage for MOSFETs Ql and Q2 occurs when the magnetizing current, indicated in FIG. 4 by triangular wave 28, is equal to the resonant inductor current, indicated by sinusoidal wave 30.
- the voltage supplied by the half bridge is the square wave denoted by reference numeral 32.
- the conditions for oscillation are described in "Self-Oscillating Electronic Ballast Analysis via Relay Systems Approach,” C. Chang and G. Bruning, APEC 1999 and “Analysis of the Self- Oscillating Series Resonant Inverter for Electronic Ballasts," C. Chang and G. Bruning, IEEE Transactions On Power Electronics, vol. 14, no. 3, May 1999, pp. 533-540.
- Figure 5 is an electrical schematic of a preferred embodiment of the current source to generate the current applied to the control winding of the current transformer.
- the generated current is a triangular waveform synchronous with the resonant current and has an amplitude proportional to the input voltage.
- a simple RC filter converts the square waveform of the voltage at the mid-point of the half bridge to a triangular waveform without DC component.
- the amplitude of the waveform is proportional to the input voltage.
- the generated triangular waveform is used to drive the base of a bipolar transistor to generate a proportional current. Since the bipolar transistor is a unidirectional device, one transistor is required for the positive part of the waveform and another for the negative part.
- the invention provides a novel and improved switching power supply operating in two stages.
- the first stage comprises a self oscillating, half-bridge, resonant inverter operating in open loop with a transformer in the output to provide isolation from the utility line.
- Feed-forward control is used to compensate for line variations.
- the feed-forward control will provide very small output voltage variations relative to input voltage variation.
- the second stage comprises a converter for load regulation which can be optimized for a very small input voltage variation because the input voltage variation is already eliminated, or at least greatly reduced by the operation of the inverter. This is very advantageous in terms of size reduction and efficiency, particularly for universal input line chargers.
- each of the two stages can be used independently for different applications.
- the disclosed embodiment of the inverter of Stage 1 could be used to drive a lamp in a ballast application as well as for driving the post-regulator disclosed for battery charging.
- the limited input range permits the magnetics and filtering elements of the post-regulators to be optimized for cost and size improvements. Isolation of the feedback signal is no longer needed because the converter providing the output regulation does not need to be isolated.
- the proposed system allows modularity of design. That is, different load regulation converters in the secondary can be used with the same self-oscillating half bridge and transformer, eliminating the need to redesign the entire converter. Also, more than one module could be used if several output are required.
- power source 10 need not necessarily be an AC source, but may be a solar or other DC source.
