发明名称 Methods and systems for improving load transient response in LLC converters
摘要 Methods and systems for improving load transient response in LLC converters are provided herein. The method includes coupling a current sensing circuit to an output of the LLC converter, sensing load current of the LLC converter, and increasing a setpoint voltage for a power factor correction (PFC) circuit output based on the sensed load current.

主权项 1. A method of improving load transient response in an inductor-inductor-capacitor (LLC) converter, said method comprising: providing a transformer that includes a primary side for receiving voltage output by a power factor correction (PFC) circuit, a secondary side for generating output voltage, and an isolation barrier that isolates the primary and secondary sides, the primary side including a resonant capacitor coupled thereto; coupling a current sensing circuit to the resonant capacitor on the primary side of the LLC converter; indirectly sensing, by the current sensing circuit, load current across the resonant capacitor on the primary side of the LLC converter; automatically transmitting, by the current sensing circuit, the sensed load current to a boost controller before output voltage of the LLC converter begins to sag upon sensing a change in the load current; and increasing, by the boost controller, a setpoint voltage for the PFC circuit output based solely on the indirectly sensed load current to operate the LLC converter at approximately a resonant frequency of the LLC converter.
