[0003] The present application claims priority of Japanese Patent Application No. 2000-149127 filed on May 19, 2000, which is hereby incorporated by reference.


[0004] 2. Description of the Related Art


[0005] As shown in FIG. 11, this kind of a conventional multi-outputting power supply circuit 100 is mainly made up of an input circuit section 1, a transformer 2, a main-output circuit section 3, and a plurality of sub-output circuit sections 4, 5, . . .


[0006] The input circuit section 1 is provided with a direct current power supply section 1a, an input smoothing capacitor 1b, a PWM (Pulse width Modulation) controlling circuit 1c, and a main-switch made up of for example, an N channel type MOS transistor (hereinafter may be referred to as NMOS 1d). The transformer 2 includes a primary winding 2a connected with input circuit section 1, a plurality of secondary windings 2b, 2c, 2d, connected respectively with sub-output circuit sections 4, 5, . . .


[0007] The main output circuit section 3 is provided with a first diode 3a, a smoothing choke coil 3b, a second diode 3c, a smoothing capacitor 3d, a dummy resistor 3e, and a constant-voltage controlling circuit 3f, thus supplying an electric power to a load RL1. The sub-output circuit section 4 is provided with a magnetic amplifier 4a, the third diode 4b, a smoothing choke coil 4c, the fourth diode 4d, a smoothing capacitor 4e, a constant-voltage controlling circuit 4f, resistors 4g and 4h, a transistor 4I, and diode 4j. The sub-output circuit section is connected to a load RL2. The sub-output circuit section 5 is the same structure as the sub-output circuit section 4, and is connected to a load RL3. And the multi-outputting power supply circuit may be provided with a electric dummy circuit 3g as shown in FIG. 12 instead of a dummy resistor 3e. The electric dummy circuit 3g is provided with a resistor 3h, a NMOS 3I, an output electric current detecting circuit 3j, and resistor 3k, and becomes ON state so as to flow dummy electric current through a resistor 3h only when a load is light.


[0008] With the above configuration, main output circuit section 3 is capable of outputting more electric power under less load variation than any sub-output power sections 4, 5, . . .


[0009] And a duty ratio of switching in a primary side (input circuit section 1) is controlled by a negative feedback signal fed to the primary side, based on an output voltage variation of a secondary side (main output circuit section 3).


[0010] In each of sub-output circuit sections 4, 5, . . . , magnetic amplifier 4a controls an alternating current voltage having a specified duty ratio based on an output voltage fed from main output circuit section 3, hereby producing output voltage having a specified level.


[0011] Next, an operation principle of magnetic amplifier 4a will be described in detail, with reference to FIGS. 13 and 14.


[0012]
FIGS. 13 and 14 are illustration for explaining an operation principle of the magnetic amplifier 4a as shown in FIG. 11.


[0013] As shown in FIG. 14, when a pulse electric current with a pulse width×μs flows, the magnetic amplifier 4a is an ON state. Here, even if the pulse electric current repeats a shifting between the ON state and an OFF state, a magnetic state of a magnetic amplifier 4a will can only go and back between a point A and a point B, in which, the point A corresponds to a maximum value of pulse current and the point B corresponds to a magnetic field zero or an electric current zero, and the magnetic amplifier 4a remains in the on state. However, while pulse electric current is the OFF state, because a slight electric current (that is to say, reset current) flows through the magnetic amplifier 4a in the opposite direction to the pulse electric current, a magnetic state of a magnetic amplifier 4a shifts to a point C, and the magnetic amplifier 4a becomes in the OFF state. In this state, even if a voltage E is supplied to the magnetic amplifier 4a in the positive direction, electric current does not flow at once, however, the electric current begins to flow after ΔT time.


[0014] ΔT is obtained by the following formula.


Magnetic flux (φ)=The product of voltage and Time (E×T)  Equation 1


ΔT=Δφ/E  Equation 2


[0015] PWM is executed by controlling the ΔT by the reset current. Here, when the following formula is satisfied, the current does not flow at all.


X=ΔT  Equation 3


[0016] That is to say, PWM is executed at range from 0 to 100 percent by adjusting a width of Δφ of magnetic amplifier 4a.


[0017] In the multi-outputting power supply circuit 100, the direct current input power voltage V1a is produced in the direct current power section 1a, and is output. The direct current input power voltage V1a is smoothed by the input smoothing capacitor 1b. A control signal V1c with a pulse width corresponding to a fixed frequency and a detective signal V3f is produced. The direct current input power voltage V1a is controlled for an ON or OFF state so as to produce an alternating current voltage V1d with a pulse width corresponding to a fixed frequency and detective signal V3f. The alternating current voltage V1d is transformed by the transformer 2 so as to produce an alternating current voltage V2b and the alternating current voltage V2c, V2d.


[0018] The alternating current voltage V2b is smoothed by the first diode 3a so as to produce a pulsating voltage V3a. Electromagnetic energy of the pulsating voltage V3a is stored in the smoothing choke coil 3b. When the first diode 3a becomes in an OFF state and the second diode 3c becomes in an ON state, the electromagnetic energy is then supplied to the smoothing capacitor 3d. The pulsating voltage V3a is smoothed by the smoothing capacitor 3d so as to produce a direct current output power voltage V3. The direct current output power voltage V3 is supplied to the dummy resistor 3e and the load RL1. When the direct current output power voltage V3 changes, the constant-voltage controlling circuit 3f detects a change of the direct current output power voltage V3 so as to produce the detective signal V3f. The detective signal V3f is supplied to the PWM controlling circuit 1c, and a pulse width of the alternating current voltage V1d is controlled for negative feed-back by the PWM controlling circuit 1c.


[0019] The alternating current voltage V2c according to a turn ratio between the primary winding 2a and the secondary winding 2c is produced based on a duty ratio predetermined by the PWM controlling circuit 1c at the secondary winding 2b of the transformer 2. The alternating current voltage V2c is smoothed by the third diode 4b through the magnetic amplifier 4a so as to produce a pulsating voltage V4b. The electromagnetic energy of the pulsating voltage V4b is stored in the smoothing choke coil 4c. When the third diode 4b becomes in an OFF state and the fourth diode 4d becomes in an ON state, the electromagnetic energy is supplied to the smoothing capacitor 4e. The pulsating voltage V4b is smoothed by the smoothing capacitor 4e so as to produce a direct current output power voltage V4. And a direct current output power voltage V4 is output from the sub-output circuit section 4 to the load RL2. Stabilizing the direct current output power voltage v4 is performed by using a hysteres is characteristic of the magnetic amplifier 4a. That is to say, a change of the direct current output power voltage V4 is detected with resistors 4g and 4h, and the reset current, is for the magnetic amplifier 4a being necessary to stabilize the direct current output power voltage V4, is adjusted by the constant voltage controlling circuit 4f, and while a magnetic amplifier 4a is in an OFF state, the reset current flows to the magnetic amplifier 4a. A rise time of a during of the ON state of a magnetic amplifier 4a is controlled so as to stabilize the direct current output power voltage V4. In the sub-output circuit section 5, the same operation as the sub-output circuit section 4 is performed.


[0020] However, a conventional multi-outputting power supply circuit 100 has the following problem, that is to say, if the conventional multi-outputting power supply circuit 100 is not provided with the dummy resistor 3e, the load RL1 connected to the main-output circuit section 3 becomes, for example, light as in no-load, and when the load electric current becomes below a threshold electric current of the smoothing choke coil 3b, the energy stored in the smoothing choke coil 3b is stored in the smoothing capacitor 3d, therefore the direct current output power voltage V3 increases. The time width of an ON state of the magnetic switch 1d (NMOS), is controlled to become narrow for the purpose of suppressing a rise of the direct current output voltage V3. In this case, because a pulse width of the alternating current voltage V2c produced in the second winding 2c becomes narrow, the product of voltage and time (the product of VT) is not ensured. Therefore, the direct current output power voltage V4 may be not stable. On condition that V is a voltage between two terminals of the magnetic amplifier 4a, T is time to saturate the magnetic amplifier 4a. For the purpose of solving the problem, the necessary product of voltage and time is ensured by putting the dummy resistor 3e in the main-output circuit section 3 and preventing a narrowing of a time width in an On state of a main switch 1d (NMOS). Accordingly, there has been a problem that electric power is always consumed, and a efficiency of a power source goes down. And there is another problem that the number of parts increases because the dummy resistor 3e, a radiator( not shown) radiating heat of the dummy resistor 3e and the like, or a electric dummy circuit 3g (shown in FIG. 12) are required.

First Embodiment

[0108]
FIG. 1A is a circuit diagram for showing an electric structure of a multi-outputting power supply circuit 200 according to a first embodiment of the present invention. Also, FIG. 1B is an enlarged view of FIG. 1A.


[0109] The multi-outputting power supply circuit 200 includes, as shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B, an input circuit section 11, a transformer 12, a main-output circuit section 13, and sub-output circuit sections 14 and 15. The input circuit section 11 includes a direct current power source section 11a, an input smoothing capacitor 11b, a PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) controlling circuit 11c as a controlling circuit 11c, and an NMOS 11d as a first switching circuit. The direct current power source section 11a is composed of a battery (not shown) and a like so as to produce a direct current input voltage V11a. The input smoothing capacitor 11b smoothes the direct current input voltage 11a. The PWM controlling circuit 11c produces a control signal V11c with a pulse width according to a fixed frequency and a detective signal V13e so as to control a pulse width of a first alternating current voltage V11d mentioned later for a negative feed-back. The NMOS 11d produces the first alternating current voltage V11d with a pulse width according to a fixed frequency and detective signal V13e by controlling direct current input voltage V11a for an On or an OFF state according to the control signal V11c. Here, the first alternating current voltage V11d is the voltage between a source and a drain of the NMOS 11d.

The third diode 14b composing the second rectifying circuit 101 produces a second pulsating voltage V14b by rectifying the fourth alternating current voltage V14a. The second pulsating voltage V14b is the voltage between a anode and cathode of the fourth diode 14d. The second smoothing circuit is composed of the smoothing choke coil 14c, the fourth diode 14d, and the smoothing capacitor 14e. The second smoothing circuit 101 produces a second direct current output voltage V14 by smoothing the second pulsating voltage V14b so as to supply the second direct current output voltage 14 for the load RL2. The second direct current output voltage 14 is the voltage between two terminals of the load RL2. A voltage controlling circuit is composed of the constant-voltage controlling circuit 14f, resistors 14g and 14h, the transistor 14i,and the diode 14j. The voltage controlling circuit 102 produces the reset current I14 to control the fourth alternating current voltage V14a for negative feed-back by detecting a change of the second direct current output voltage V14.

FIG. 2 is a waveform chart being measured in each section of a multi-outputting power supply circuit 200 according to the first embodiment; the vertical axis shows voltage and the horizontal axis shows time.


[0114] The following will describe an operation of the multi-outputting power supply circuit 200 of the first embodiment with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2.


[0115] Direct current input voltage V11a is produced by the direct current power source section 11a and is output. The direct current input voltage V11a is smoothed by the input smoothing capacitor 11b. A control signal V11c with a pulse width corresponding to a fixed frequency and the detective signal V13e is produced by the PWM controlling circuit 11c. The direct current input voltage V11a is controlled for an ON or an OFF state by the NMOS 11d based on the control signal V11c so as to produce the first alternating current voltage V11d with a pulse width corresponding to a fixed frequency and the detective signal V13e. The first alternating current voltage V11d is transformed by the transformer 12 so as to output the second alternating current voltage V12b and the third alternating current voltage V12c and V12d from the transformer 12.


[0116] The second alternating current voltage V12b is controlled for an ON or an OFF state by the NMOS 13a so as to produce the first pulsating voltage V13a, synchronizing with a change of polarity of the second alternating current voltage V12b (that is to say, a change of a control voltage of the NMOS 13a). The electromagnetic energy of the first pulsating voltage V13a is stored in the smoothing choke coil 13b. The electromagnetic energy is controlled for an ON or an OFF state by the NMOS 13c, synchronizing with a change of polarity of the second alternating current voltage V12b (that is to say, a change of control voltage V12bC of the NMOS 13c), and is provided to the smoothing capacitor 13d, when the NMOS 13a is in the OFF state and the NMOS 13c is in the ON state. The first pulsating voltage V13a is smoothed by the smoothing capacitor 13d so as to produce the first direct current output voltage V13. The first direct current output voltage V13 is supplied to the load RL1. When the first direct current output voltage V13 changes, the constant voltage controlling circuit 13e outputs the detective signal V13e by detecting a change of the first direct current output voltage V13. The detective signal V13e is provided to the PWM controlling circuit 11c so that the PWM controlling circuit 11c controls a pulse width of the first alternating current voltage V11d for negative feed-back.


[0117] When load electric current flowing through the smoothing choke coil 13b is below a threshold electric current of the smoothing choke coil 13b, in the state that the NMOS 13a is in an ON state as shown in FIG. 2, the load current flows in the opposite direction because electric current flows in both directions. Therefore, when the load is light, excessive energy is returned to the input circuit section 11 through transformer 12 after flowing through the smoothing choke coil 13b in the opposite direction. Therefore, the load current flows through the smoothing choke coil 13b constantly, and as shown in FIG. 2, the voltage between two terminals of the smoothing choke coil 13b changes between (VS1−Vout) and (−Vout). On condition that VS1 is voltage between two terminals of the smoothing choke coil 13b when a load is light, Vout is a voltage drop against VS1 when a load electric current I13 flows in the opposite direction. Accordingly, even when a load is light, the direct current output voltage V13 does not increase, an abrupt narrowing of time width does not occur when the NMOS 11d is in an ON state.


[0118] The third alternating current voltage V12c is controlled for an ON or an OFF state based on the reset current I14 so as to produce the fourth alternating current voltage V14a with a pulse width corresponding to the reset current I14. In this case, because abrupt narrowing of time width does not occur, the third alternating current voltage V12c has a necessary pulse width to saturate the magnetic amplifier 14a, and the product of voltage and time is ensured in the magnetic amplifier 14a. On a condition that V is voltage between two terminals of the magnetic amplifier 14a, T is time to saturate the magnetic amplifier 14a. The fourth alternating current voltage V14a is rectified by the third diode 14b so as to produce the second pulsating voltage V14b.


[0119] The electromagnetic energy of the second pulsating voltage V14b is stored in the smoothing choke coil 14c. Because the fourth diode 14d becomes in an ON state when the third diode 14b is an OFF state, the electromagnetic energy is provided to the smoothing capacitor 14e. The second pulsating voltage V14b is smoothed by the smoothing capacitor 14e so as to produce the second direct current output voltage V14. The second direct current output voltage V14 is supplied to the load RL2. The second direct current output voltage V14 is divided with resistors 14g and 14h, and the change of divided voltage is detected by the constant-voltage controlling circuit 14f. The electric current flowing through transistor 14i is controlled by the constant-voltage controlling circuit 14f, and the reset current I14 is provided to the magnetic amplifier 14a through the diode 14j from the collector of the transistor 14i so as to control the fourth alternating current voltage V14a for negative feed-back; the second direct current output voltage V14 becomes stable. In the sub-output circuit section 15, the same operation as that of the sub-output circuit section 14 is executed.


[0120] As mentioned above, in the first embodiment, because the main-output circuit section 13 includes a synchronous rectifying circuit composed of the NMOS 13a, even when the load RL1 becomes light, in a state that the NMOS is in the ON state, abrupt narrowing of time width does not occur. Therefore, the product of voltage and time is easily ensured in the magnetic amplifier 14a, and the second direct current output voltage V14 and V15 are stably produced in the sub-output circuit sections 14 and 15. Moreover, because the main-output circuit section 13 does not need a dummy resistor and an electric dummy circuit, an efficiency of the power source is improved and the number of parts decrease more than ever.

The input circuit section 11A is provided with a PWM controlling circuit 11e instead of the PWM controlling circuit 11c as shown in FIG. 1, moreover is provided with an active clamp circuit composed of an NMOS 11f and a capacitor 11g. The PWM controlling circuit lie produces the same control signal V11e as the control signal V11c of the PWM controlling circuit 11c and a control signal V11eB which is opposite in phase to the control signal V11e. The NMOS 11f is in an ON state while an NMOS 11d is in an OFF state, and exciting current is flowed through the primary winding 12a by making a resonance circuit of the primary winding 12a of a transformer 12 and the capacitor 11g so as to reset a core of the transformer 12.

[0124] The operation of the multi-outputting power supply circuit 300 is different from the first embodiment in following points.


[0125] That is to say, as shown in FIG. 4, the NMOS 11d and the NMOS 11f become in an ON or OFF state mutually, and timing of the control signal V11e and V11e b output from the PWM controlling circuit 11e has a dead-time so as to prevent from a simultaneous ON state of the NMOS 11d and the NMOS 11f. While the NMOS 11f is in the ON state. A resonance circuit is composed of the primary winding 12a of the transformer 12 and the capacitor 11g. When excitation current flows through the primary winding 12a, a core of the transformer 12 is reset. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 4, a waveform of a first alternating current voltage V11d is close to a square wave, and a waveform of a second alternating current voltage V12d is close to the first alternating current voltage V11d. Accordingly, gate voltage of the NMOS 13c becomes an ideal square waveform; current loss of the NMOS 13c is improved to attain a high efficiency.

Here, The first alternating current voltage V21b is the voltage between a source and drain of the NMOS 21b. The first alternating current voltage V21b is transformed by the transformer 12B so as to produce a third alternating current voltage V12b from the transformer 12B. Similarly, the third alternating current voltage V12d is output from the transformer 12C. Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 6, the same operation as that of the second embodiment is executed.

A control signal V11c with a pulse width corresponding to a fixed frequency and a detective signal V13e is produced by a PWM controlling circuit 11c. Direct input voltage V11a is controlled for an ON or an OFF state based on the control signal V11c by an NMOS 11d so as to produce a first alternating current voltage V11d with a pulse width corresponding to a fixed frequency and the detective signal V13e.

A smoothing capacitor 13d smoothes the first pulsating voltage V13a so as to produce a first direct current output voltage V13. The first direct current output voltage V13 is supplied to a load RL1.

On a condition that V is voltage between two terminals of the magnetic amplifier 14a, T is the time to ensure the magnetic amplifier 14a. The fourth alternating current voltage V14 is rectified by the third diode 14b so as to produce the second pulsating voltage V14b.

The second direct current output voltage V14 is divided with resistors 14g and 14h, a change of divided resistor value is detected by the constant-voltage controlling circuit 14f. The electric current flowing through the transistor 14i is controlled by the constant-voltage controlling circuit 14f, the reset current 114 is supplied to the magnetic amplifier 14a through the diode 14j from a collector of the transistor 14j, therefore, the fourth alternating current voltage V14a is controlled for negative feed-back. Consequently, the second direct current output voltage V14 becomes stable. In the sub-output circuit section 15, the same operation as that of the sub-output circuit section 14 is performed.
