Introduction to regulated power supply module DC chopping of regulated power supply module

 

The switching power supply module is a modular package of discrete components on the switching power supply, thereby forming a module power supply with smaller volume and higher power density. Its internal circuit is also a switching power supply.


Introduction
Switching power supplies can be divided into two categories: AC/DC and DC/DC. The DC/DC converter has now been modularized, and the design technology and production process have been mature and standardized at home and abroad, and have been recognized by users. The modularization of AC/DC, due to its own characteristics, encounters more complicated technical and process manufacturing problems in the process of modularization.


DC chopping


DC/DC conversion is to convert a fixed DC voltage into a variable DC voltage, also known as DC chopping. There are two working modes of the chopper, one is the pulse width modulation mode, Ts is unchanged, and the ton is changed (common), and the other is the frequency modulation mode, the ton is unchanged, and Ts is changed (easy to generate interference). Its specific circuit consists of the following categories:


(1) Buck circuit - step-down chopper, its output average voltage Uo is less than the input voltage Ui, and the polarity is the same.


(2) Boost circuit - boost chopper, its output average voltage Uo is greater than the input voltage Ui, and the polarity is the same.


(3) Buck-Boost circuit - step-down or step-up chopper, its output average voltage Uo is greater than or less than the input voltage Ui, the polarity is opposite, and the inductance is transmitted.


(4) Cuk circuit - step-down or step-up chopper, its output average voltage Uo is greater than or less than the input voltage UI, the polarity is opposite, and the capacitance is transmitted.


AC/DC


AC/DC conversion is to convert AC to DC, and its power flow can be bidirectional. The power flow from the power source to the load is called "rectification", and the power flow from the load back to the power source is called "active inverter". The input of the AC/DC converter is 50/60Hz alternating current. Because it must be rectified and filtered, a relatively large filter capacitor is essential. At the same time, due to safety standards (such as UL, CCEE, etc.) and EMC directives The restrictions of the AC/DC power supply (such as IEC, FCC, CSA), the AC input side must add EMC filtering and use components that meet safety standards, which limits the miniaturization of the AC/DC power supply. In addition, due to the internal high frequency, high voltage, and large current The switching action makes it more difficult to solve the problem of EMC electromagnetic compatibility, which also puts forward high requirements for the design of internal high-density installation circuits. For the same reason, high-voltage and high-current switches increase power consumption and limit AC /DC converter modularization process, so it is necessary to adopt the power system optimization design method to make its work efficiency reach a certain degree of satisfaction.

AC/DC conversion can be divided into half-wave circuit and full-wave circuit according to the wiring method of the circuit. According to the number of power supply phases, it can be divided into single phase, three phase and multi phase. According to the working quadrant of the circuit, it can be divided into one quadrant, two quadrants, three quadrants, and four quadrants.


advantage


Simple design. Only one power module is needed, coupled with a few discrete components, to obtain power.


Shorten the development cycle. The module power supply generally has a variety of input and output options. Users can also repeat superposition or cross superposition to form a building block combined power supply to realize multiple input and output, which greatly reduces the prototype development time.


Flexible to change. If the product design needs to be changed, it is only necessary to convert or connect another suitable power module in parallel.


Low technical requirements. Modular power supplies are generally equipped with standardized front-ends, highly integrated power modules and other components, thus making power supply design easier.


The shell of the module power supply has a three-in-one structure of heat sink, radiator and shell, which realizes the conduction cooling method of the module power supply and makes the temperature value of the power supply approach to the minimum value. At the same time, the module power supply is endowed with a luxurious packaging.


High quality and reliable. Module power supply is generally produced by full automation and equipped with high-tech production technology, so the quality is stable and reliable.

Wide range of uses: the module power supply can be widely used in various fields of social production and life such as aerospace, locomotives and ships, military weapons, power generation and distribution, post and telecommunications, metallurgical mines, automatic control, household appliances, instruments and scientific research experiments, etc. It plays an irreplaceable important role in the field of high reliability and high technology.
