Please refer to Fig. 1, Fig. 1 is the functional block diagram according to the resonant mode power conversion circuit of the utility model first embodiment, and resonant mode power conversion circuit 100 comprises resonant mode converting unit 110, control unit 120, current detecting unit 130, voltage detection unit 140 and frequency modulation unit 150.Control unit 120 is coupled to resonant mode converting unit 110, and frequency modulation circuit 150 is coupled to control unit 120 and current detecting unit 130 and voltage detection unit 140.Current detecting unit 130, voltage detection unit 140 are coupled to the output of resonant mode converting unit 110 to detect the output voltage and the output current of resonant mode converting unit 110.
Resonant mode converting unit 110 for example is serial-resonant electric power converter (being called for short SRC) or parallel resonance formula electric power converter (being called for short PRC) or series parallel resonance formula electric power converter (be called for short SPRC, be called LCC again), and present embodiment is not limited.Be the example explanation with semibridge system LCC resonant mode electric power converter in the present embodiment, resonant mode converting unit 110 has the power switch (not illustrating) of two series connection, the similar squarer of its effect.Power switch in the resonant mode converting unit 110 can switch (conducting with close) according to the switching signal that control unit 120 is exported respectively to produce square-wave signal, then via resonant circuit and transformer generation output voltage VO UT.In operating process, the gain of resonant mode converting unit 110 and the frequency dependence of switching signal.With the resonance converter of semibridge system, control unit 120 can output two anti-phase and have in fact the switching signal of 50% work period (duty cycle) and control its switch.As shown in Figure 1, the switching signal that control unit 120 is exported comprises the first switching signal FS1 and the second switching signal FS2, in order to control the switch (for example being power transistor) in the resonant mode converting unit 110 respectively.Control unit 120 can be adjusted the gain of resonant mode converting unit 110 via the frequency of adjusting the first switching signal FS1 and the second switching signal FS2, and then adjusts the output voltage VO UT of resonant mode converting unit 110.
In addition, the circuit framework of resonant mode converting unit 110 also can be the circuit framework of full-bridge type, and control unit 120 can be exported four switching signals with the power switch in the control resonant mode converting unit 110 like this.Do not limit the circuit framework of resonant mode converting unit 110 in the present embodiment, control unit 120 can all change signal to resonant mode converting unit 110 at least according to its circuit framework output, and can adjust the gain of resonant mode converting unit 110 to produce required output voltage via the frequency of adjusting switching signal.
The function of control unit 120 similarly is a signal generator, can utilize for example (STMicroelectronics of STMicw Electronics, ST) the high voltage resonant control chip of company (for example model L6599) is realized, but present embodiment is not limited to the chip of this model.Generally speaking, the frequency of the switching signal that control unit is exported can be subject to the frequency of oscillation of chip internal, and its switching signal can have the restriction of a minimum switching frequency.With above-mentioned L6599 is example, and its minimum switching frequency is to set via a frequency setting pin, that is to say, can set the lowest operating frequency of the first switching signal FS1 and the second switching signal FS2 through setting pin thus.Owing to the gain meeting of resonant mode converting unit 110 switching frequency along with the first switching signal FS1 and the second switching signal FS2 becomes, the minimum switching frequency of therefore adjusting control unit 120 can allow resonant mode converting unit 110 have bigger gain modulation space to meet design requirement.It should be noted that the minimum switching frequency of so-called adjustment is meant the lower-frequency limit of adjusting 120 switching signals that can export of control unit, but not directly adjust the frequency of its switching signal.
