发明名称 A SWITCHED MODE AC-DC CONVERTER
摘要 The present application relates to a class of switching power supplies, which use a resonant isolation stage (typically LLC) fed directly or via a diode bridge from the line. Extension of the range of available gain values over frequency without material loss of efficiency is facilitated by usage of additional resonant elements. This capability allows the devices to provide narrow-range inputs to secondary-processing circuits, with the ability to achieve power factor correction if required. The conversion architecture is also compatible with optimal usage of energy storage elements suitable for use with switching power supplies.

主权项 1. A switching converter for converting an input AC voltage to an output DC voltage, comprising: a primary side, the primary side comprising: first and second AC input nodes for receiving an input AC voltage or a rectified AC input voltage: a first switch having a first end connected to the first AC input node and a second end connected to a common switching node; a second switch having a first end connected to the common switching node and a second end connected to the second AC input node; a first resonant circuit comprising a capacitor in series with a primary winding of a first transformer, wherein the first resonant circuit is provided between the common switching node and the second AC input node, wherein the first resonant circuit has a first pair of resonant frequencies comprising a series resonant frequency and a parallel resonant frequency; a secondary side comprising a secondary winding of the first transformer and at least one rectifier for rectifying the voltage from the secondary winding, a second resonant circuit provided between the same nodes as the first resonant circuit, the second resonant circuit comprising a second primary winding of the transformer, wherein the second resonant circuit has a second pair of resonant frequencies comprising a series resonant frequency and a parallel resonant frequency; and a controller for operating switches, wherein the controller is configured to operate the switches using a variable frequency, wherein the controller has a first mode of operation in which the switching frequency is confined to a first frequency range and a second mode of operation in which the switching frequency is confined to a second frequency range.
