Current resonance type DC-DC converter and method for operating current resonance type DC-DC converter

摘要

A current resonance type DC-DC converter includes a transformer that has a primary winding and a secondary winding, a switching circuit that has a pair of first switching elements and that is connected to the primary winding, an AC/DC transfer circuit that has four rectifying devices, which are connected in full bridge and include a pair of second switching elements, that is connected to the secondary winding, that converts an AC voltage, which is induced at the secondary winding, into a DC voltage and that outputs the DC voltage, and a control circuit that controls ON and OFF operations of the pairs of the first and second switching elements. The control circuit controls the ON and OFF operations so as to synchronize the pair of the first switching elements with the pair of the second switching elements.

1. A current resonance DC-DC converter, comprising:
a transformer that has a primary winding and a secondary winding; a switching circuit that has a pair of first switching elements and that is connected to the primary winding; an AC/DC transfer circuit that:
has four rectifying devices, which are connected in full bridge and include a pair of second switching elements,is connected to the secondary winding,converts an AC voltage, which is induced at the secondary winding, into a DC voltage, andoutputs the DC voltage; and a control circuit that is configured to control ON and OFF operations of the pairs of the first and second switching elements, wherein the control circuit is configured to control the ON and OFF operations so as to synchronize the pair of the first switching elements with the pair of the second switching elements, the control circuit is configured to synchronize one of the first switching elements with one of the second switching elements and to synchronize the other of the first switching elements with the other of the second switching elements, and the control circuit is configured to adjust an overlapped ON period where the second switching elements perform the ON operations at the same time in accordance with a voltage value of the DC voltage so as to change the overlapped ON period during which both of the second switching elements perform the ON operations at the same time.
