The disclosure provides a PD fast charging control circuit. The PD fast charging control circuit includes an isolated direction current (DC) to DC (DC/DC) conversion module, a multi-channel buck module, a pass-through mode control module, and a feedback voltage control module.
In one embodiment, the disclosure achieves the ultra-high efficient conversion of the PD fast charging source through the pass-through mode control module and the feedback voltage control module. It may be understood that, in an operating mode of a traditional PD fast charging source, an isolated DC/DC conversion module is configured to output a fixed voltage of about 29 V, and a multi-channel buck module is configured to buck and output based on the output voltage of 29 V to satisfy voltage requirements of different charging loads. An output voltage of the multi-channel buck module has six values, such as 28 V, 20 V, 15 V, 12 V, 9 V, and 5 V. However, this operating mode just causes low efficiency conversion of the traditional PD fast charging source. For example, in a case where the output voltage of the isolated DC/DC conversion module is 29 V, and the multi-channel buck module will perform buck conversion on the output voltage of 29 V to output a voltage of 20 V, then the power conversion efficiency is very low. In a case where the output voltage of the isolated DC/DC conversion module is 29 V, and the multi-channel buck module will perform buck conversion on the output voltage of 29 V to output a voltage of 28 V, then the power conversion efficiency is acceptable. However, in practical applications, it cannot be guaranteed that charging loads connected are all require a voltage of 28 V. The diversity in voltage requirements of the charging loads is common in practical applications. Therefore, in the operating mode of the traditional PD fast charging source, when multiple interfaces are connected to the charging loads, the traditional PD fast charging source is prone to heating issues, indicating a problem of relatively low power conversion efficiency.
The disclosure provides an operating mode of a novel PD fast charging source. Specifically, a charging load is first considered. The pass-through mode control module is configured to generate a control signal upon connection of the charging load to a PD fast charging control circuit, and to determine an output voltage and an operating mode of a multi-branch buck module according to the control signal that is generated according to the charging load. It can be understood that the charging load is a key for activating a control mode of the PD fast charging control circuit. In the disclosure, with regard to actual voltage requirements of various charging loads, an internal voltage output of the PD fast charging control circuit can be controlled, so that loss of electric energy can be reduced during the process from energy output to energy input to the charging load, achieving non-differential power conversion enhancement for various types of charging loads. In one embodiment, the feedback voltage control module may receive the control signal sent by the pass-through mode control module, and control a voltage value of a DC voltage outputted by the isolated DC/DC conversion module according to the control signal, so that the voltage value of the DC voltage outputted by the isolated DC/DC conversion module can meet an actual voltage requirement of the charging load. In this way, the voltage value of the DC voltage can accurately match the actual voltage requirement of each different charging load, thereby supporting ultra-high power conversion efficiency, and avoiding excessive heat generation even if the PD fast charging control circuit is connected to charging loads through multiple ports. It may be noted that, the pass-through mode control module may also control the operating mode of the multi-channel buck module. For example, the pass-through mode control module may control the multi-channel buck module to operate in a normal mode or a pass-through mode. In the normal mode, the multi-channel buck module is configured to normally perform buck conversion on the DC voltage. In the pass-through mode, the multi-channel buck module can be regarded as a short circuit, allowing the isolated DC/DC conversion module to directly output the DC voltage to the charging load. In the pass-through mode, by eliminating allocation and consumption processes of the multi-channel buck module for electric energy, the power conversion efficiency of the PD fast charging source can be significantly improved.
Further, the pass-through mode control module is configured to acquire voltage requirement information of the charging load in response to connection of the charging load. The pass-through mode control module is configured to generate the control signal according to the voltage requirement information and send the control signal to the feedback voltage control module. The feedback voltage control module is configured to control, according to the voltage requirement information in the control signal, DC conversion of the isolated DC/DC conversion module to set the voltage value of the DC voltage outputted to be the same as a voltage value of the voltage requirement information or set the voltage value of the DC voltage to be a preset minimum output voltage value.
In one embodiment, the PD fast charging control circuit may first acquire the voltage requirement information of the charging load upon connection of the charging load to the PD fast charging control circuit. For example, the voltage requirement information of a charging load 1 may be a voltage of 28 V, the voltage requirement information of a charging load 2 may be a voltage of 12 V, and the voltage requirement information of a charging load 3 may be a voltage of 20 V. Upon determination of the voltage requirement information of the charging load, the pass-through mode control module may generate the control signal and send the control signal to the feedback voltage control module. The control signal may be sent in the form of an electrical parameter. Alternatively, the control signal may be sent in the form of a program instruction. A carrier form of the control signal is not limited herein. The control signal may be understood as a signal that triggers the isolated DC/DC conversion module to change a current operating mode of the isolated DC/DC conversion module. It can be understood that, in a traditional mode of the isolated DC/DC conversion module, the isolated DC/DC conversion module is configured to output a fixed voltage of about 29V. However, in the disclosure, the PD fast charging control circuit is configured to automatically generate a corresponding control signal upon connection of the charging load to the PD fast charging control circuit, and to change the output voltage of the isolated DC/DC conversion module according to the control signal, so that a current output voltage logic and the current mode of the isolated DC/DC conversion module can be changed accordingly. Specifically, the isolated DC/DC conversion module is configured to control DC conversion according to the control signal received, so that the voltage value of the DC voltage outputted can be set to be the same as the voltage value of the voltage requirement information, or be set to be the preset minimum output voltage value. For example, when a voltage of 28 V needs to be outputted by the multi-channel buck module, the pass-through mode control module may send the control signal to the feedback voltage control module to control the isolated DC/DC conversion module to output a voltage of 28 V, and at the same time, the multi-channel buck module is controlled to operate in the pass-through mode through the pass-through mode control module. When a voltage of 20 V needs to be outputted by the multi-channel buck module, the pass-through mode control module may send the control signal to the feedback voltage control module to control the isolated DC/DC conversion module to output a voltage of 28 V, and at the same time, the multi-channel buck module is controlled to operate in the pass-through mode through the pass-through mode control module. Further, when a voltage of 5 V, a voltage of 9 V, a voltage of 12 V, and a voltage of 15 V need to be outputted by the multi-channel buck module, the pass-through mode control module may send the control signal to the feedback voltage control module to control the isolated DC/DC conversion module to output a voltage of 20 V, and then the pass-through mode is deactivated, a system is in a normal traditional buck operating mode, and at this point, the multi-channel buck module can realize normal buck output. It can be seen that, in a case where the output voltage is greater than 20 V, in order to achieve high-efficiency conversion, the isolated DC/DC conversion module may be controlled to output a voltage value the same as the voltage value of the voltage requirement information of the charging load. In a case where the output voltage is not greater than 20V, the efficiency conversion requirement is not so high, and a traditional buck operating mode can still be employed for charging, thereby reducing the setup cost of the PD fast charging control circuit, and still providing high power conversion efficiency.
Further, the pass-through mode control module is configured to send a first operating mode switching command to the multi-channel buck module to enable the multi-channel buck module to operate in the pass-through mode, when the voltage value of the DC voltage outputted is set to be the same as the voltage value of the voltage requirement information. The pass-through mode control module is configured to send a second operating mode switching command to the multi-channel buck module to enable the multi-channel buck module to operate in the normal mode, when the voltage value of the DC voltage is set to be the preset minimum output voltage value and the preset minimum output voltage value is greater than the voltage value of the voltage requirement information.
In an embodiment, the operating mode of the multi-channel buck module is switchable, allowing for the selection of the optimal operating mode to power a charging load on different charging scenarios. Specifically, the switching of the operating mode of the multi-channel buck module may be performed through the first operating mode switching command and the second operating mode switching command. It may be understood that, the multi-channel buck module can protect multiple charging paths, that is, support the simultaneous connection of at least one charging load for charging. For example, in a case where two charging loads are simultaneously connected, if a voltage required by a first charging load is 28 V, an operating mode of a charging path of the first charging load may be the pass-through mode, and if a voltage required by the second charging load is 15 V, an operating mode of a charging path of the second charging load may be the normal mode.
Further, the isolated DC/DC conversion module may also be configured to perform multiple-path output and single-path output. In a case where the isolated DC/DC conversion module supports the multiple-path output, the isolated DC/DC conversion module may output different voltages to charging paths of different charging loads according to voltage requirements of different charging loads, and the pass-through mode is preferentially selected as the operating mode of the multi-channel buck module. In a case where the isolated DC/DC conversion module supports only the single-path output, the isolated DC/DC conversion module may perform output according to the highest voltage requirement of the charging load connected. For example, if the highest voltage requirement of the charging load is a voltage of 28 V, the isolated DC/DC conversion module may set the output voltage to be 28 V. The charging path for the charging load with a voltage requirement of 28 V may adopt the pass-through mode of the multi-channel buck module, while the charging paths of other charging loads may adopt the normal mode.
In some implementations of the disclosure, the isolated DC/DC conversion module may be implemented as an isolated DC/DC converter. The multi-channel buck module may be implemented as a multi-channel buck converter. The pass-through mode control module may be implemented as a pass-through mode controller. The feedback voltage control module may be implemented as a feedback voltage controller.
Further, the feedback voltage control module is configured to determine a target output voltage value of the isolated DC/DC conversion module according to the voltage requirement information in the control signal, and the isolated DC/DC conversion module is configured to reset conversion logic of DC conversion according to the target output voltage value to enable that the isolated DC/DC conversion module is able to output the target output voltage value according to the conversion logic.
In an embodiment, during a specific control of the output voltage of the isolated DC/DC conversion module, the target output voltage value of the isolated DC/DC conversion module may be determined first according to the control signal. Then, the conversion logic of DC conversion of the isolated DC/DC conversion module may be reset according to the target output voltage value of the isolated DC/DC conversion module. Alternatively, a current conversion logic of DC conversion may be replaced with a preset conversion logic of DC conversion, so that the isolated DC/DC conversion module can accurately output the target output voltage value.
Further, the PD fast charging control circuit further includes a DC input module. The DC input module includes an alternating current (AC) input filtering module, a rectification output module, and a power factor correction boost module.
The AC input filtering module is configured to filter an AC that is inputted to the AC input filtering module.
The rectification output module is configured to rectify the AC that is filtered.
The power factor correction boost module is configured to output an original DC voltage to the isolated DC/DC conversion module. The original DC voltage is greater than a voltage outputted by the isolated DC/DC conversion module.
In an embodiment, the PD fast charging control circuit may further include other functional modules, such as the AC input filtering module, the rectification output module, and the power factor correction boost module. These functional modules contribute to converting an external AC voltage into the original DC voltage for the isolated DC/DC conversion module of the PD fast charging control circuit. This conversion establishes the technical prerequisites for controlling the isolated DC/DC conversion module to achieve arbitrary voltage transformations.
In some implementations of the disclosure, the DC input module may be implemented as a DC input circuit. The AC input filtering module may be implemented as an AC input filter. The rectification output module may be implemented as an output rectifier. The power factor correction boost module may be implemented as a power factor correction boost converter.
Further, related circuits of the traditional PD fast charging source do not include the pass-through mode control module and the feedback voltage control module. In the practical design and production of the PD fast charging control circuit of the disclosure, the disclosure achieves improvements upon the traditional PD fast charging source. The pass-through mode control module and the feedback voltage control module are provided for the isolated DC/DC conversion module and the multi-channel buck module, so that the pass-through mode control module and the feedback voltage control module can operate with the pass-through mode control module and feedback voltage control module to allow the PD fast charging control circuit in the above embodiments to achieve interaction and control functions. Specifically, logic control circuits or logic control chips corresponding to the pass-through mode control module and the feedback voltage control module can be added into the related circuits of the traditional PD fast charging source, thereby achieving a significantly enhanced power conversion efficiency of the PD fast charging source in the PD fast charging control circuit of the disclosure.
