2. Description of Related Art
Currently, in order to reduce the serious harmonic pollution of the power grid caused by frequent use of power electronic devices, generally it is needed to introduce a power factor correction (PFC) circuit, so as to make an input current harmonic meet a determined harmonic requirement. Additionally, the development trend of PFC circuit is towards the direction of high efficiency and high power density, just as most power supply products.
Taking a bridgeless PFC circuit topology as an example, the circuit has various advantages such as low conduction loss, low common mode interference and high utilization rate of components. For example, the bridgeless PFC circuit includes a first bridge arm and a second bridge arm connected in parallel with each other. The first bridge arm is comprised of a first MOSFET and a second MOSFET. The second bridge arm is comprised of a third MOSFET and a fourth MOSFET.
When the bridgeless PFC circuit is receiving an AC input voltage, its working process can be briefly described as follows: when the input voltage is greater than zero, the second MOSFET and the fourth MOSFET are turned on, a current forms a current loop by passing through an input inductor, the second MOSFET and the fourth MOSFET, so that the input inductor stores energy; and when the second MOSFET is turned off, the current passes through the input inductor, the body diode of the first MOSFET, an electrolytic capacitor and the fourth MOSFET, so that the inductor releases the energy for charging the capacitor. Similarly, when the input voltage is smaller than zero, the first MOSFET and the third MOSFET are turned on, the current forms the current loop by passing through the third MOSFET, the first MOSFET and the input inductor, so that the input inductor stores the energy; and when the first MOSFET is turned off, the current passes through the third MOSFET, the electrolytic capacitor, the body diode of the second MOSFET and the input inductor, so that the inductor releases the energy for charging the capacitor. It can be seen from the above-mentioned working process, the conventional PFC circuit has low conduction loss and low common mode interference, but in the energy releasing stage of the inductor, the body diode of the first MOSFET or the body diode of the second MOSFET in the first bridge arm is always in on-state, and thus the conduction loss is still large.
In view of this, many in the industry are endeavoring to find ways in which to design a controlling method for the bridgeless PFC circuit, further reducing the circuit conduction loss based on the conventional PFC circuit.
In order to solve the above-mentioned disadvantages existed in the bridgeless PFC circuit of the prior art, the disclosure provides a control circuit for a power converter, a conversion system and controlling method thereof.

After reading specific implementations of the disclosure with reference to the accompanying drawings, readers can understand various aspects of the disclosure more clearly, wherein,
In order to make the technical contents of the disclosure more detailed and more comprehensive, various specific embodiments of the disclosure are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings, and the same reference numbers are used in the drawings to refer to the same or like parts. However, those of ordinary skills in the art should understand that the embodiments provided below are not used for limiting the scope of the disclosure. Moreover, the accompanying drawings are only for illustration and are not drawn to scale.
In the Detailed Description and the claims of the disclosure, the description relating to “coupled with” may refer to that a component is indirectly connected to another component through other components, or may also refer to that a component is directly connected to another component without using other components.
In the Detailed Description and the claims of the disclosure, the articles “a/an” and “the” refer to one or more, unless expressly specified otherwise.
As used herein, the terms “about”, “approximately”, “subsequently” or “near” are used to modify any micro-variable quantity, but these micro-variations do not change the nature of the quantity. In the embodiments, the error of the quantity modified by terms “about”, “approximately”, “subsequently” or “near” is in a range of 20%, preferably in a range of 10%, and more preferably in a range of 5%, unless expressly specified otherwise.
When Uin is greater than 0, Q2 and Q4 are turned on, and the current forms a loop by passing through the inductor L, the MOSFET Q2, and the MOSFET Q4, so that the inductor L stores energy; and when Q2 is turned off (at this time Q4 works at the working frequency and is still in on-state), the current passes through the inductor L, the body diode of Q1, the electrolytic capacitor C and the MOSFET Q4, so that the inductor L releases the energy for charging the capacitor C.
When Uin is smaller than 0, Q1 and Q3 are turned on, and the current forms a loop by passing through the MOSFET Q3, the MOSFET Q1 and the inductor L, so that the inductor L stores the energy; and when Q1 is turned off (at this time Q3 works at the working frequency and is still in on-state), the current passes through the MOSFET Q3, the electrolytic capacitor C, the body diode of Q2 and the inductor L, so that the inductor L releases the energy for charging the capacitor C. It can be seen from the above-mentioned working process, the PFC circuit has advantages such as low conduction loss, low common mode interference and high utilization rate of components, but since in the energy releasing state of the inductor L, the body diode of the MOSFET Q1 or the body diode of the MOSFET Q2 is always in on-state, the conduction loss in the circuit is still large.
Additionally, terms are briefly introduced below with reference to the bridgeless PFC circuit in
Referring to
Taking the period that Uin is greater than 0 (i.e., a positive voltage) as an example, in the DCMB mode shown in
It should be understood that, in a DCMB control manner, the switch Q1 or Q2 in the first bridge arm is turned off, and the switch Q1 or Q2 is turned on again until the inductance current is decreased to zero. The DCMB control manner is a variable frequency control manner. The switch loss caused by the backward recovery of the diode can be eliminated by decreasing the inductance current IL to zero at the time that the switch is turned on again. However, when the bridgeless PFC circuit is in the DCMB, the working frequency of the converter is very high at the zero-crossing point of a line voltage, so that it is difficult for designing an EMI filter.

Moreover, the conversion system further includes a control circuit (not shown). The control circuit controls the first switch Q1 and the second switch Q2 in the first bridge arm, so that the inductance current IL flowing through the inductance component L is decreased to zero before at least one first switching cycle is over. In other words, in the conversion system of the disclosure, the switches Q1 and Q2 are controlled by the control circuit, so that the power converter works in the DCM mode during at least one first switching cycle.
In an embodiment, the control circuit further controls the third switch Q3 and the fourth switch Q4 in the second bridge arm, so that the third switch Q3 and the fourth switch Q4 are respectively at the low potential and the high potential in the first half cycle (the first 10 ms as shown in
In an embodiment, during the second switching cycle (such as, during a time period of 20 ms), the control circuit further controls the first switch Q1 and the second switch Q2 in the first bridge arm, so that the inductance current flowing through the inductance component L is just decreased to zero at the time that at least one first switching cycle is over. That is, in the conversion system of the disclosure, the switches Q1 and Q2 are controlled by the control circuit, so that the power converter works in the DCM mode during at least one first switching cycle and works in the DCMB mode during another at least one first switching cycle. Thus, in the embodiment, the power converter works in a mixed mode of the DCM mode and the DCMB mode during a part of the time periods of the second switching cycle, which can also reduce the conduction loss in the circuit and improve the working efficiency of the converter.
Additionally, the main switch and the auxiliary switch in the first bridge arm can be defined according to the input voltage polarity of the AC power supply. For example, when a positive voltage exists between the first end and the second end of the AC power supply (such as when the positive voltage between the upper end and the lower end in
In an embodiment, the first switch Q1 and the second switch Q2 are the MOSFETs or the IGBTs, and the material thereof is Si, SiC, GaN or the wide band gap semiconductor material.
For the switches Q3 and Q4 in the second bridge arm, in an embodiment, the third switch and the fourth switch are the MOSFETs or the IGBTs, and the material thereof is Si, SiC, GaN or the wide band gap semiconductor material. In another embodiment, the third switch and the fourth switch are diodes, and the material thereof is Si, SiC, GaN or the wide band gap semiconductor material.

In an embodiment, when the current IL flowing through the inductance component reaches the peak, the control circuit controls the main switch Q2 to be turned off and the auxiliary switch Q1 to be turned on. It should be noted that, the controlling method of the disclosure is provided under the condition that the circuit works at an ideal state, and the switches in the same bridge arm have no commutation time. That is, the switch Q1 is turned off while the switch Q2 is turned on; or the switch Q2 is turned off while the switch Q1 is turned on.
Certainly, in other embodiments, it also can be chosen that the auxiliary switch in the first bridge arm is turned off at latest at the zero-crossing point of the inductance current, which can also achieve the purpose of preventing the output energy recharge.

In an embodiment, when the current IL flowing through the inductance component reaches the peak, the control circuit controls the main switch Q2 to be turned off and the auxiliary switch Q1 to be turned on.
The working process of the power converter is described again with reference to
Referring to
Particularly, when the input voltage Uin of the AC power supply is a positive voltage (Uin>0), the third switch Q3 in the second bridge arm is turned on, and the fourth switch Q4 is turned off. At this time, the second switch Q2 in the first bridge arm is the main switch, and the first switch Q1 is the auxiliary switch. The inductance current IL is decreased to zero at the time t1, and at this time, the main switch Q2 and the auxiliary switch Q1 are both in off-state. Thus, the DS capacitor between the drain electrode and the source electrode of the switch Q1 and the DS capacitor between the drain electrode and the source electrode of the switch Q2 resonate with the loop inductance. The DS resonant voltage at the main switch Q2 is decreased gradually and reaches the bottom of the resonant valley at the time t2. In the embodiment, Q2 is turned on at the valley bottom of the DS resonant voltage of the switch Q2, so that the switching loss of the switch Q2 can be reduced. When the switch Q2 is turned on again at the time t2, the inductance current IL begins to be increased from zero again.
Similarly, when the input voltage Uin of the AC power supply is a negative voltage (Uin<0), the fourth switch Q4 in the second bridge arm is turned on, and the third switch Q3 is turned off. At this time, the first switch Q1 in the first bridge arm is the main switch, and the second switch Q2 is the auxiliary switch. The DS capacitor between the drain electrode and the source electrode of the switch Q2 and the DS capacitor between the drain electrode and the source electrode of the switch Q1 resonate with the loop inductance. The DS resonant voltage at the main switch Q1 is decreased gradually and reaches the bottom of the resonant valley. Q1 is turned on at the valley bottom of the DS resonant voltage of the switch Q1, so that the switching loss of the switch Q1 can be reduced.
It should be pointed out that, during the process that the DS capacitor between the drain electrode and the source electrode of the switch Q1 in the first bridge arm and the DS capacitor between the drain electrode and the source electrode of Q2 are resonating with the loop inductance, the DS resonant voltage of the main switch can reach the valley bottom for plural times. Thus, in the case that the circuit working frequency is allowed, the main switch in the first bridge arm can be turned on at the bottom of the Nth DS resonant voltage valley (N is greater than or equal to 2).

It should be pointed out that, the disclosure not only discloses a conversion system based on the bridgeless PFC circuit, but also discloses a controlling method for controlling the conversion system. Particularly,
In the controlling method, the step S11 is performed firstly. The first control signal and the second control signal are respectively applied to the switch Q1 and the switch Q2 in the first bridge arm for controlling the switches. The first control signal and the second control signal have a first switching cycle. For example, the switch Q2 is turned on by the second control signal and the switch Q1 is turned off by the first control signal, so that the inductance current IL begins to rise from zero; however, the switch Q2 is turned off by the second control signal and the switch Q1 is turned on by the first control signal, so that the inductance current IL is decreased to zero from the current peak.
Then, in the step S13, the third control signal and the fourth control signal are respectively applied to the switch Q3 and the switch Q4 in the second bridge arm for controlling the switches. The third control signal and the fourth control signal have a second switching cycle. For example, the polarity of the third control signal is always opposite to that of the fourth control signal at any time of the second switching cycle. When the third control signal is at the high potential, the fourth control signal is at the low potential; and when the third control signal is at the low potential, the fourth control signal is at the high potential. Additionally, as shown in
Finally, in the step S15, by the first control signal and the second control signal, the current flowing through the inductance component is decreased to zero before at least one first switching cycle is over. That is, the power supply converter works in the DCM mode during at least one first switching cycle, so that the inductance current is increased gradually again from zero with a time delay after the time that the inductance current is decreased to zero in the last cycle, thereby reducing the conduction loss in the circuit and improving the working efficiency of the converter.
It should be pointed out that, the above-mentioned various embodiments not only may be used for describing the conversion system based on the bridgeless PFC circuit and the controlling method thereof, but also may be used for describing the control circuit of the conversion system. In an embodiment, the control circuit includes a first control module and a second control module.
The first control module is used for outputting a first control signal and a second control signal, so as to control the first switch and the second switch in the first bridge arm (such as the switches Q1 and Q2 in
The second control module is used for outputting a third control signal and a fourth control signal, so as to control the third switch and the fourth switch in the second bridge arm (such as the switches Q3 and Q4 in
It should be pointed out that, through the first control signal and the second control signal from the first control module, the control circuit of the disclosure makes the current flowing through the inductance component in the power converter be decreased to zero before at least one first switching cycle is over, thereby reducing the conduction loss in the circuit and improving the working efficiency. In some specific embodiments, the control circuit is a micro control unit (MCU), a central processor unit (CPU), a digital signal processor (DSP), an ARM chip or an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC).
In the foregoing, the specific implementations of the disclosure are described with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, those of ordinary skills in the art should understand that various modifications and variations may also be made to the specific implementations of the disclosure without departing from the spirit and scope of the disclosure. These modifications and variations all fall in the scope defined by the claims of the disclosure.
