Description
技术领域 本发明属于便携式电子产品的开关电源设计技术领域,特别涉及开关电源的集成控制芯片的设计。Technical Field The present invention belongs to the technical field of switching power supply design for portable electronic products, and in particular relates to the design of integrated control chips for switching power supplies.
背景技术 实现开关电源软启动的技术多种多样,但是,都有许多的不足之处。有的软启动电路判断电路是否发生电流浪涌(或电流过冲)现象,给出了一个固定的阈值,只要电流超出这个阈值,软启动电路就输出控制信号,切断充电电流,同时整个电源重新进入启动状态。该方法的不足之处是当充电过程到某一阶段时,充电电流也逐渐上升到一定水平时,容易因为偶尔的过流使得电源多次重新启动。例如典型的直流/直流开关电源在启动过程中,容易产生浪涌电流,可能对电子系统产生损伤,为此,消除电源启动过程中可能出现的过流现象是必要且必须的。BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION There are various techniques for realizing the soft start of switching power supplies, but all of them have many deficiencies. Some soft-start circuits judge whether the current surge (or current overshoot) phenomenon occurs in the circuit, and give a fixed threshold. As long as the current exceeds this threshold, the soft-start circuit will output a control signal to cut off the charging current, and at the same time, the entire power supply will restart. Enter the boot state. The disadvantage of this method is that when the charging process reaches a certain stage and the charging current gradually rises to a certain level, it is easy to restart the power supply many times due to occasional overcurrent. For example, during the start-up process of a typical DC/DC switching power supply, it is easy to generate surge current, which may cause damage to the electronic system. Therefore, it is necessary and necessary to eliminate the possible overcurrent phenomenon during the start-up process of the power supply.

The connection relationship of the overall circuit of this embodiment is shown in Figure 2: first, the sampling signals HL and LL are drawn from both ends of the resistor R14 in the step-down switching power supply module of the synchronous rectification structure, and the voltage difference between the signals HL and LL is The size reflects the size of the current flowing through the resistor R14, that is, the size of the current flowing through the inductor. The output signals HL and LL are connected to respective inputs HL and LL of the level shifting circuit. The compensation voltage Vc generated by the charging timing and compensation voltage generating circuit is connected to the level shifting circuit through the resistor R6 of the level shifting circuit to compensate the LL terminal of the current sampling signal HL and LL signal pair. The output signal of the level shift circuit is connected to the inverting and non-inverting input terminals of the overcurrent comparator comp through nodes A and B, and the output E of the overcurrent comparator comp is connected to the gate input terminal of M2x to control the conduction and cut off, thereby controlling the peak value of the current flowing through the resistor R14. After the charging timing and compensation voltage generating circuit is input enabling signal EN1 is valid, the whole circuit enters the soft start state.
其工作过程如下:如图2所示。首先,EN1信号为低电平,通过mx使C2两端的电压初始化为OV;之后,EN1信号为高电平。这时,一方面,m14导通,电流源I4通过m14开始给电容C2充电,在C2的电压充到2.5V之前,inv2的输出EN2就一直为高电平(因为inv2的反转阈值是2.5V,且T6,R10和R8可以保证C2的电压可以充到2.5V以上),高电平使能的过流比较器comp开始工作(正常情况下,比较器输出E为高电平,控制开关电源模块给输出Vout充电);另一方面,m1,m2,m10和m11也导通,电平移位电路开始工作。在此过程中,检测电感电流的灵敏电阻R14的两端引出两个检测信号HL和LL反馈到电平移位电路中,(HL和LL之间的电压差就反映了电感电流的水平,通过限制该电压差的大小,就可以限制电流浪涌现象的发生。)过流比较器就是对HL和LL两端电压差值大小的判断,如果差值较大,结点E为低电平,反之结点E为高电平。结点E控制同步整流管的高端管M2x(靠近电源输入端的开关管)。如果电感电流过流,灵敏电阻R14两端的压差增大,使结点E为低电平,则高端开关管关断,电感过流现象得到控制。这样,由灵敏电阻R14提供反馈信号,加上过流比较器comp的控制,就可以使电感电流缓慢上升而不会发生过流。Its working process is as follows: as shown in Figure 2. First, the EN1 signal is low level, and the voltage across C2 is initialized to OV through mx; after that, the EN1 signal is high level. At this time, on the one hand, m14 is turned on, and the current source I4 starts to charge the capacitor C2 through m14. Before the voltage of C2 is charged to 2.5V, the output EN2 of inv2 is always at a high level (because the inversion threshold of inv2 is 2.5V V, and T6, R10 and R8 can ensure that the voltage of C2 can be charged above 2.5V), the high-level enabled overcurrent comparator comp starts to work (under normal circumstances, the comparator output E is high, and the control switch The power supply module charges the output Vout); on the other hand, m1, m2, m10 and m11 are also turned on, and the level shift circuit starts to work. During this process, two detection signals HL and LL are fed back to the level shift circuit from both ends of the sensitive resistor R14 that detects the inductor current, (the voltage difference between HL and LL reflects the level of the inductor current, by limiting The magnitude of the voltage difference can limit the occurrence of current surge phenomenon.) The overcurrent comparator is to judge the magnitude of the voltage difference between the two ends of HL and LL. If the difference is large, the node E is low, otherwise Node E is high. Node E controls the high-end tube M2x of the synchronous rectifier (the switch tube close to the power input terminal). If the inductor current is over-current, the voltage difference across the sensitive resistor R14 increases, so that the node E is at a low level, the high-side switch is turned off, and the inductor over-current phenomenon is controlled. In this way, the feedback signal provided by the sensitive resistor R14, coupled with the control of the over-current comparator comp, can make the inductor current rise slowly without over-current.
随着时间的增加,电感的电流增大到一定水平,就会使灵敏电阻R14两端的压差在某一时间内保持很高的值,使结点E较长时间保持高电平,减缓了软启动的速度。为此,给电平移位电路的一端(LL反馈输入端)引入了补偿电压Vc,使输入到过流比较器两端的压差维持在一个相对稳定的水平。保证了电感电流的持续缓慢增加和输出电压的线性增加。电压补偿是通过R6提供的,由于电阻R6的电流包括两部分:一个是电平移位电路提供的和R9相同的电流,一个是T4的发射极流过的电流,该部分电流由于电容C2上电压的增加而增加(C2电压的增加是由于恒流源I4给充电的缘故)。于是R6上的电压就缓慢增加。由图2可知,Vc最大的补偿电压是2.5V*R6/(R11+R6)。With the increase of time, the current of the inductor increases to a certain level, which will make the voltage difference across the sensitive resistor R14 maintain a high value for a certain period of time, so that the node E remains at a high level for a long time, slowing down The speed of the soft start. For this reason, a compensation voltage V c is introduced to one end of the level shift circuit (LL feedback input end), so that the voltage difference input to the two ends of the overcurrent comparator can be maintained at a relatively stable level. The continuous slow increase of the inductor current and the linear increase of the output voltage are guaranteed. Voltage compensation is provided through R6, because the current of resistor R6 includes two parts: one is the same current provided by the level shift circuit as R9, and the other is the current flowing through the emitter of T4, which is due to the voltage on capacitor C2 (The increase of C2 voltage is due to the charging of constant current source I4). Then the voltage on R6 increases slowly. It can be seen from Figure 2 that the maximum compensation voltage of V c is 2.5V*R6/(R11+R6).
如果电容C2两端的电压超过了2.5V,而开关电源的输出电压仍然没有达到系统所设定的值时,认为软启动失败。此时,反相器inv2的输出EN2为低电平,使同步整流结构的降压型开关电源模块中高端开关管M2x关断,低端开关管M2x1导通,输出电压放电到地,系统重新启动。为防止开关电源的重启动,在电路设计时,就必须设计好C2和I4的值,使得在电容C2的电压达到2.5V之前,开关电源输出端电容C1的电压应该已经提前达到系统设计的阈值。系统检测到开关电源的输出电压达到该阈值时,系统就输出信号给EN1,使软启动电路停止工作,同时启动开关电源的控制核心,一般用有限状态机实现(不属于本实施例的范畴),由该有限状态机代替软启动电路保持输出电压的稳定。If the voltage across the capacitor C2 exceeds 2.5V, but the output voltage of the switching power supply still does not reach the value set by the system, it is considered that the soft start has failed. At this time, the output EN2 of the inverter inv2 is at a low level, so that the high-side switch tube M2x in the step-down switching power supply module with a synchronous rectification structure is turned off, the low-side switch tube M2x1 is turned on, the output voltage is discharged to the ground, and the system restarts. start up. In order to prevent the restart of the switching power supply, the values of C2 and I4 must be designed in the circuit design, so that before the voltage of the capacitor C2 reaches 2.5V, the voltage of the capacitor C1 at the output terminal of the switching power supply should have reached the threshold value of the system design in advance . When the system detects that the output voltage of the switching power supply reaches the threshold, the system outputs a signal to EN1 to stop the soft-start circuit and start the control core of the switching power supply at the same time, which is generally realized by a finite state machine (not belonging to the scope of this embodiment) , the finite state machine replaces the soft-start circuit to keep the output voltage stable.
把本实施例的软启动电路,用于一个具体的输出电压为3.3V降压型开关电源系统中,经HSPICE模拟表明:如果不使用软启动电路,而直接给开关电源输出端的电容充电,模拟的结果如图4所示,其中(a)是电感电流随时间的变化曲线,(b)是开关电源的输出电压随时间的变化曲线。可知,产生了浪涌电流(电流过冲),电流可达到近10A,这有可能对电子系统造成损伤。如使用本实施例的软启动电路,结果如图5所示,其中(a)是电感电流随时间的变化曲线,(b)是开关电源的输出电压随时间的变化曲线。可知,电感电流缓慢上升,开关电源输出端的电压也在逐渐上升,符合设计目标。Using the soft-start circuit of this embodiment in a specific output voltage of 3.3V step-down switching power supply system, the HSPICE simulation shows that if the soft-start circuit is not used, and the capacitor at the output end of the switching power supply is directly charged, the simulated The results are shown in Figure 4, where (a) is the change curve of the inductor current with time, and (b) is the change curve of the output voltage of the switching power supply with time. It can be seen that a surge current (current overshoot) is generated, and the current can reach nearly 10A, which may cause damage to the electronic system. If the soft-start circuit of this embodiment is used, the result is shown in FIG. 5 , where (a) is the variation curve of the inductor current with time, and (b) is the variation curve of the output voltage of the switching power supply with time. It can be seen that the inductor current rises slowly, and the voltage at the output end of the switching power supply also rises gradually, which meets the design goal.
