Description

LLC resonance control circuit, control method thereof and LLC resonance conversion circuit
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of power electronics, relates to a resonance control technology, and in particular relates to an LLC resonance control circuit, a control method thereof and an LLC resonance conversion circuit.
Background
Increasing power density and efficiency of power supply systems has been an important research direction for power supply systems. Switching power supplies are used and the switching frequency is increased, but frequency increase also affects switching losses. Therefore, soft switching technology is employed for high frequency switching power supply systems. The LLC resonant converter utilizes the resonance characteristic to enable the switch to work in a soft switching state, and simultaneously has the characteristic of high frequency, so that the LLC resonant converter has higher power density and efficiency of a power supply system.
As shown in fig. 1, the LLC resonant conversion circuit includes a primary side circuit, a secondary side circuit, and a transformer winding. The primary side circuit includes a resonance control circuit and a resonance circuit. The resonance control circuit realizes resonance control through the feedback signal FB and the soft start signal SS, and takes the smaller value of the feedback voltage Vfb and the soft start voltage Vss as the dominant of closed loop control. Taking a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO for short) as an example, the driving signal driving the first switching tube Q1 is a first driving signal GH, the driving signal driving the second switching tube Q2 is a second driving signal GL, and the on time of the two driving signals is determined by the feedback voltage Vfb and the soft start voltage Vss.
Fig. 2 shows pulse widths of two driving signals respectively corresponding to the first switching tube Q1 and the second switching tube Q2 controlled by the voltage-controlled oscillator when the values of the feedback signal FB and the soft start signal SS are different. Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of a graph showing the value of the oscillation control signal, where the voltage-controlled oscillator selects the value of the oscillation control signal according to the magnitude relation between the soft start voltage Vss and the feedback voltage Vfb, so as to control the pulse width of the driving signal. As shown in fig. 2 and 3, during the start-up, the soft start voltage Vss gradually increases from 0. When the soft start voltage Vss is smaller than the feedback voltage Vfb (e.g., before time t0 in fig. 3), the voltage-controlled oscillator is controlled by the soft start voltage Vss, which is a soft start control procedure. Specifically, the voltage-controlled oscillator controls the pulse widths of the driving signals of the first switching tube Q1 and the second switching tube Q2 according to the soft start voltage Vss, respectively. When the soft start voltage Vss is greater than the feedback voltage Vfb (e.g., after time t0 in fig. 3), the voltage-controlled oscillator is controlled by the feedback voltage Vfb, i.e., loop closed-loop control. Specifically, the voltage-controlled oscillator controls the pulse width of the first driving signal and the pulse width of the second driving signal according to the feedback voltage Vfb. Since the feedback voltage Vfb is always lower than the soft start voltage Vss after the soft start control voltage Vss reaches the maximum value (e.g., 3.5V), the soft start voltage Vss is no longer involved in control after the soft start is completed, and the system is always controlled by the feedback voltage Vfb.
As shown in fig. 4, when the LLC resonant conversion circuit is in steady state operation (i.e., phase t1-t 2), the pulse width of the first drive signal GH and the pulse width of the second drive signal GL are controlled by the feedback voltage Vfb. When the load is suddenly added to overload or open circuit (at time t 2), the resonant cavity current rises to enable the resonant cavity sampling current signal CS to exceed the overcurrent threshold voltage VOCP_H, so that the resonant control circuit turns off the first switching tube Q1 in advance to enable the pulse width of the first driving signal GH to be shortened, and the pulse width of the second driving signal GL corresponding to the second switching tube Q2 is still controlled by the feedback signal Vfb, thereby causing the system half to trigger the overcurrent protection OCP, the other half not to trigger the overcurrent protection OCP, and the upper half bridge and the lower half bridge to be asymmetric. Similarly, in some cases, the overcurrent protection of the second switching tube may be triggered, so that the pulse width of the second driving signal GL is shortened. The upper and lower half-bridge asymmetry can lead to a series of problems, as follows: (1) The center value of the voltage of the resonance capacitor is deviated, the peak voltage of the resonance capacitor is possibly increased, and overvoltage damage is caused; (2) The load capacity of the system is reduced, and when the overload current is switched back to the full-load current, the load capacity still cannot be recovered; (3) A switching tube (e.g., a second switching tube in the case of fig. 4) that easily causes the non-triggered over-current protection OCP is more likely to enter the capacitive region for operation, reducing system reliability.
In view of the foregoing, there is a need to provide a new architecture or control method for solving at least some of the problems described above.

An embodiment of the invention discloses an LLC resonance control circuit which is used for generating a driving signal to drive a half-bridge circuit. The half-bridge circuit comprises a first switching tube Q1 and a second switching tube Q2. As shown in fig. 6, the LLC resonance control circuit includes a discrimination circuit 11, an oscillation circuit 12, and a drive circuit 13. The input end of the discrimination circuit 11 is used for obtaining a resonant cavity sampling current signal representing the resonant cavity current, and the discrimination circuit 11 is used for generating an oscillation control signal according to the resonant cavity sampling current signal and a soft overcurrent protection threshold, wherein the resonant cavity sampling current signal can be a sampling voltage Vcs. When the sampling current signal of the resonant cavity reaches a soft overcurrent protection threshold, soft overcurrent protection is triggered, and the judging circuit adjusts the oscillation control signal to reduce the pulse width of the driving signal. The resonator sampling current signal reaching the soft overcurrent protection threshold may specifically be that the resonator sampling current signal is equal to or greater than the soft overcurrent protection threshold. The input end of the oscillating circuit 12 is coupled to the output end of the discriminating circuit 11 to obtain an oscillating control signal, and the oscillating circuit 12 is used for generating a pulse modulation signal according to the oscillating control signal to control the driving signal. The driving signal is used for driving the first switching tube and the second switching tube. The input end of the driving circuit 13 is coupled to the output end of the oscillating circuit 12, and the driving circuit 13 outputs a driving signal according to the pulse modulation signal. In one embodiment, the pulse width of the driving signal is positively correlated with the pulse width of the pulse modulated signal. As shown in fig. 6, the driving signals include a first driving signal GH and a second driving signal GL. The first driving signal GH is used for driving the first switching tube Q1, and the second driving signal GL is used for driving the second switching tube Q2. In one embodiment, the driving circuit adjusts the pulse width of the driving signal according to the pulse modulation signal.

Triggering overcurrent protection when the resonant cavity sampling current signal reaches an overcurrent protection threshold. When the LLC resonance control circuit triggers overcurrent protection, the LLC resonance control circuit controls to turn off the first switching tube and the second switching tube so as to prevent circuit damage. When the sampling current signal of the resonant cavity reaches a soft overcurrent protection threshold, soft overcurrent protection is triggered, and the judging circuit adjusts the oscillation control signal to reduce the pulse width of the driving signal. In one embodiment, when soft over-current protection is triggered, the LLC resonant control circuit discharges a capacitor coupled to the soft start signal terminal, thereby reducing the soft start voltage and enabling the oscillating circuit to control the pulse width of the driving signal according to the soft start voltage. If soft over-current protection is continuously triggered, the soft start voltage is continuously reduced until soft over-current protection is no longer triggered. At this time, the first driving signal GH and the second driving signal GL of the driving signals are both controlled by the soft start voltage, and thus pulse widths of both the first driving signal GH and the second driving signal GL are symmetrical. In addition, because the soft overcurrent protection is triggered periodically, the soft starting voltage is maintained in a state critical to the soft overcurrent protection, and the system works more stably.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the soft over-current protection threshold includes a first soft over-current protection threshold, and the first soft over-current protection threshold is a positive value. The over-current protection threshold includes a first over-current protection threshold that is positive. The first soft over-current protection threshold is less than the first over-current protection threshold. In another embodiment, the soft over-current protection threshold comprises a second soft over-current protection threshold, the second soft over-current protection threshold being negative. The over-current protection threshold includes a second over-current protection threshold that is negative. The absolute value of the second soft over-current protection threshold is less than the absolute value of the second over-current protection threshold. In yet another embodiment, the soft over-current protection threshold includes a first soft over-current protection threshold that is positive and a second soft over-current protection threshold that is negative. The overcurrent protection threshold comprises a first overcurrent protection threshold and a second overcurrent protection threshold, wherein the first overcurrent protection threshold is a positive value, and the second overcurrent protection threshold is a negative value. The first soft over-current protection threshold is smaller than the first over-current protection threshold, and the absolute value of the second soft over-current protection threshold is smaller than the absolute value of the second over-current protection threshold.

In another embodiment, the oscillating circuit adjusts the pulse width of the drive signal based on the smaller of the soft start voltage and the feedback voltage as the dominant of the closed loop control. In one embodiment, if the soft start voltage is less than the feedback voltage, the oscillating circuit generates the pulse modulation signal according to the soft start voltage. In another embodiment, if the soft start voltage is greater than the feedback voltage, the oscillation control signal end is a soft start signal end, and when soft overcurrent protection is triggered, the LLC resonant control circuit controls the soft start voltage to decrease to less than the feedback voltage, so that the oscillation circuit generates a pulse modulation signal according to the soft start voltage, and the driving circuit generates a driving signal according to the pulse modulation signal.

In another embodiment, when the soft start signal is below a preset value, the LLC resonant control circuit will turn off the first and second switching tubes to further reduce losses (e.g., short circuit losses).

In one embodiment, the oscillation circuit generates a pulse modulation signal according to the oscillation control signal to control the driving signal, and the pulse width of the driving signal is positively correlated with the oscillation control signal in a preset interval. In another embodiment, the pulse width of the driving signal is proportional to the oscillation control signal in a preset interval. In practical applications, the pulse width of the driving signal and the oscillation control signal in the preset interval may be designed to be inversely related, but the related control logic becomes more complex.
In an embodiment, the LLC resonant control circuit is a voltage mode controlled LLC resonant control circuit or a current mode controlled LLC resonant control circuit. In another embodiment, the LLC resonant control circuit controls an envelope area of the forward current of the resonant cavity sampling current signal to be proportional to the soft start voltage.
In one embodiment, the discrimination circuit includes a soft over-current protection discrimination circuit and a valuation circuit. The soft overcurrent protection judging circuit is used for triggering soft overcurrent protection when the resonant cavity sampling current signal reaches a soft overcurrent protection threshold. The assignment circuit is used for carrying out decremental assignment on the oscillation control signal based on the value of the current oscillation control signal so as to reduce the pulse width of the driving signal when the soft overcurrent protection is triggered. The assignment circuit may end the decremental assignment when the resonator sampling current signal does not reach the soft over-current protection threshold.
As shown in fig. 9, in an embodiment of the present invention, the first driving signal GH is used to control the switching state of the first switching transistor Q1, and the second driving signal GL is used to control the switching state of the second switching transistor Q2. The first switching tube Q1 and the second switching tube Q2 alternately perform switching operation. In order to avoid that the first switching tube Q1 and the second switching tube Q2 are turned on at the same time, a dead zone is provided. The waveform of the sine-like wave variation in fig. 9 is the sampling voltage Vcs, i.e., the resonant cavity sampling current signal is the sampling voltage Vcs. Before time t1, the LLC resonant conversion circuit works normally. At time t1, the sampling voltage Vcs reaches a first soft over-current protection threshold VSOCPH of the soft over-current protection thresholds, triggering soft over-current protection. As can be seen from fig. 7 and 9, at time t1, the output signal SCOP of the first or gate 103 is at a first level (e.g., high level), the charge/discharge control circuit controls the charge/discharge circuit to start discharging, and when the trigger signal output from the falling edge trigger circuit 105 is at the first level (e.g., high level), the RS trigger resets, and the charge/discharge control circuit controls the charge/discharge circuit to stop discharging. Before time t1, since the charge-discharge control circuit controls the charge-discharge circuit to continue charging, the soft start signal SS (e.g., soft start voltage Vss) gradually increases. In the period from t1 to t2, the soft start signal SS gradually decreases since the charge-discharge control circuit controls the charge-discharge circuit to continue discharging. In the period between t2 and t3, since soft overcurrent protection is not triggered, the charge-discharge control circuit controls the charge-discharge circuit to continue charging, and the soft start signal SS (e.g., soft start voltage Vss) gradually rises. At time t3, the sampling voltage Vcs reaches a first soft overcurrent protection threshold VSOCPH of the soft overcurrent protection thresholds again, soft overcurrent protection is triggered, and the LLC resonant control circuit gradually reduces the control soft start signal SS. As shown in fig. 9, the soft over-current protection threshold further includes a second soft over-current protection threshold VSOCPL, and if the sampling voltage Vcs reaches the second soft over-current protection threshold VSOCPL of the soft over-current protection thresholds, soft over-current protection is triggered. And an overcurrent protection threshold is further arranged in the LLC resonant control circuit, and the overcurrent protection threshold comprises a first soft overcurrent protection threshold VOCPH and a second soft overcurrent protection threshold VOCPL. The first soft over-current protection threshold value VSOCPH is smaller than the first over-current protection threshold value VOCPH, and the absolute value of the second soft over-current protection threshold value VSOCPL is smaller than the absolute value of the second over-current protection threshold value VOCPL. When the over-current protection is triggered, the LLC resonance control circuit controls the first switching tube and the second switching tube to be turned off so as to prevent the circuit from being damaged.
Based on the LLC resonant circuit and related improvement, the soft overcurrent protection function is adopted, so that the overcurrent state of the system can be effectively suppressed by suppressing the soft start voltage Vss, and the phenomenon that the system stops working due to direct triggering of overcurrent protection is reduced. In addition, because the upper and lower tube driving is controlled by the soft start voltage Vss, the system driving signals are symmetrical (namely the first driving signal and the second driving signal are relatively symmetrical), so that the voltage center value of the resonance capacitor is stabilized at the middle point of the bridge arm, and the reliability of the resonance capacitor is improved. In addition, the upper and lower pipes of the system are symmetrically driven, so that the system is favorable for recovering from an overload state, the system can be set with a lower overcurrent threshold, the current peak value of the system is effectively reduced, the limiting current and voltage of devices such as a transformer inductor are reduced, and the cost of the system is reduced. In addition, the upper pipe and the lower pipe of the system are symmetrically driven, so that LLC resonance working waveforms are more stable, the reliability of the system is improved, the working noise is reduced, and the like.
