Definitions
- the present invention relates to a DC power supply circuit, and more particularly to a technique for improving the power factor of the circuit when viewed from an AC power supply.
- LEDs light-emitting diodes
- a DC power source is necessary.
- Patent Document 1 discloses a rectifier circuit, a smoothing capacitor connected between the output terminals of the rectifier circuit, and a voltage converter circuit that converts the voltage generated between both ends of the capacitor and outputs the converted voltage. A DC power supply circuit is described.
- the current flowing out from the AC power source flows into the capacitor through the rectifier circuit only during the period when the output voltage of the rectifier circuit is higher than the voltage across the capacitor.
- the present invention has been made in view of the above reasons, and an object thereof is to provide a DC power supply circuit capable of improving the power factor.
- a DC power supply circuit includes a rectifier circuit that rectifies AC supplied from an AC power supply, a voltage converter circuit that is connected to an output terminal of the rectifier circuit, converts an input voltage from the rectifier circuit, and applies it to a load.
- the voltage conversion circuit is connected between an inductor having one end connected to the output terminal on the high potential side of the rectifier circuit via the load, and the other end of the inductor and the output terminal on the low potential side of the rectifier circuit.
- the load element, the inductor, and the switching element are passed in this order from the output terminal on the high potential side of the rectifier circuit during the ON period of the switching element. Rectification times A first current path extending to the output terminal on the low potential side of the rectifier circuit, the load, inductor, first unidirectional element, capacitor from the output terminal on the high potential side of the rectifier circuit during the OFF period of the switching element A second current path that reaches the output terminal on the low potential side of the rectifier circuit is formed through the above sequence.
- the first current path flows out from the high potential side output end of the rectifier circuit and flows into the low potential side output end.
- current continues to flow through the second current path.
- a current mainly flows through the first current path that does not pass through the capacitor, and a period in which no current flows into the capacitor occurs. During this period, the capacitor is not charged.
- the OFF period of the switching element current flows through the second current path passing through the capacitor, and the capacitor is charged. As described above, the period in which the capacitor is not charged and the period in which the capacitor is charged alternately come in synchronization with the on / off operation of the switching element.
- the rise of the voltage between both ends of the capacitor is delayed as compared with the configuration in which current continues to flow from the output terminal on the high potential side of the rectifier circuit to the capacitor regardless of whether the switching element is on or off. Then, the voltage across the capacitor when the instantaneous value of the output voltage of the rectifier circuit reaches the maximum value becomes smaller than the maximum value. After the instantaneous value of the output voltage of the rectifier circuit reaches the maximum value, the instantaneous value of the output voltage of the rectifier circuit is equal to the capacitor value during the period until the instantaneous value of the output voltage of the rectifier circuit becomes equal to the voltage across the capacitor.
- the instantaneous value of the output voltage of the rectifier circuit is compared to the configuration in which the current flowing from the AC power supply to the capacitor via the rectifier circuit is cut off after the instantaneous value of the output voltage of the rectifier circuit reaches the maximum value. Even after the value reaches the maximum value, there is a period in which current continues to flow from the AC power supply to the voltage conversion circuit via the rectifier circuit. Improvements can be made.

定電圧回路4は、抵抗R41,R42と、コンデンサC43と、ツェナーダイオードZD44とを備える。ここで、抵抗R41,R42は、整流回路2の出力端間に直列に接続されている。そして、抵抗R41は、一端が整流回路2の高電位側の出力端に接続されており、抵抗R42は、抵抗R41の他端と整流回路2の低電位側の出力端との間に接続されている。コンデンサC43は、抵抗R42の両端間に接続されている。ツェナーダイオードZD44は、アノードが整流回路2の低電位側の出力端に接続され、カソードが抵抗R41,R42の接続点に接続されるとともに駆動回路U1の電源端子te0に接続されている。これにより、駆動回路U1の電源端子te0の電位は、ツェナーダイオードZD44のカソードに生じる一定の電位に維持される。
次に、本実施の形態に係る直流電源回路1の動作について説明する。
て説明する。時刻T01から交流電圧Vsの1/4周期に相当する時刻T02の間では、整流回路2の出力電圧VinがコンデンサC2の両端間に生じる電圧VC2以上となる。この期間では、スイッチング素子Q1のオフ期間に整流回路2の高電位側の出力端からコンデンサC2に流れ込む電流が発生している(図2(b)参照)。時刻T02において、整流回路2の出力電圧Vinは最大値Vinmaxに到達するが、コンデンサC2の両端間に生じる電圧VC2は、電圧Vinmaxに到達していない。続いて、時刻T02から時刻T03の期間では、整流回路2の出力電圧Vinは漸減し、コンデンサC2の両端間の電圧VC2は漸増する。その後、整流回路2の出力電圧VinとコンデンサC2の両端間の電圧VC2とが略等しくなると、ダイオードD0が非導通状態となる。そして、時刻T03から時刻T1の期間において、スイッチング素子Q1のオン期間では、コンデンサC2に蓄積された電荷が、コンデンサC2から負荷11を介してインダクタL2に放電され(図3(a)参照)、スイッチング素子Q1のオフ期間では、インダクタL2に蓄積された磁気的エネルギが負荷11に放出される(図3(b)参照)。
結局、本実施の形態に係る直流電源回路1は、整流回路2の出力電圧の瞬時値VinがコンデンサC2の両端間の電圧VC2以上の場合、整流回路2の高電位側の出力端から流出し低電位側の出力端に流入する第1電流経路または第2電流経路を通じて電流が流れ続ける。これにより、交流電源ACから整流回路2を介して電圧変換回路3に電流が流れ続ける。また、スイッチング素子Q1のオン期間中では、コンデンサC2を経由しない第1電流経路に電流が主に流れ、コンデンサC2には電流が流れ込まない。これにより、コンデンサC2は充電されない。一方、スイッチング素子Q1のオフ期間中、コンデンサC2を経由する第2電流経路を電流が流れ、コンデンサC2が充電される。このように、スイッチング素子Q1のオンオフ動作に同期してコンデンサが充電されない期間とコンデンサが充電される期間とが交互に到来する。
