SRGATE1=SRGATE0–P*ΔPWMON (1)SRGATE1 = SRGATE0 – P*ΔPWMON (1)
如式(1)所示,ΔPWMON前次第一开启时间PWMON0与目前第一开启时间PWMON1的差,P为一预定比例,其中P大于1,且P和一次侧线圈102与二次侧线圈106的匝数比有关。As shown in formula (1), the difference between the first on-time PWMON0 of ΔPWMON last time and the current first on-time PWMON1, P is a predetermined ratio, wherein P is greater than 1, and P and the primary side coil 102 and the secondary side coil 106 The turns ratio is related.
另外,虽然图2是以前次第一开启时间PWMON0大于目前第一开启时间PWMON1为例,但本发明并不受限于前次第一开启时间PWMON0大于目前第一开启时间PWMON1。也就是说当前次第一开启时间PWMON0小于目前第一开启时间PWMON1,导致第二电压V2和第一电压V1之间的差大于第一预定值时,同步整流器200也会根据上述同步整流器200的操作原理使目前第二开启时间SRGATE1小于电源转换器100的二次侧SEC的前次第二开启时间SRGATE0,以确保电源转换器100的一次侧PRI与二次侧SEC不会同时开启。In addition, although FIG. 2 is an example where the previous first on-time PWMON0 is greater than the current first on-time PWMON1 , the present invention is not limited to the fact that the previous first on-time PWMON0 is greater than the current first on-time PWMON1 . That is to say, when the current first turn-on time PWMON0 is less than the current first turn-on time PWMON1, resulting in a difference between the second voltage V2 and the first voltage V1 greater than the first predetermined value, the synchronous rectifier 200 will also operate according to the above synchronous rectifier 200 The operating principle makes the current second turn-on time SRGATE1 shorter than the previous second turn-on time SRGATE0 of the secondary side SEC of the power converter 100 to ensure that the primary side PRI and the secondary side SEC of the power converter 100 are not turned on at the same time.
另外,如图2所示,当电源转换器100是处于一连续电流模式(continuous currentmode,CCM)时,前次第一开启时间PWMON0与目前第一开启时间PWMON1是等于电源转换器100的一次侧PRI的功率开关104的开启时间。当电源转换器100是处于一离散电流模式(discrete current mode,DCM)和一准谐振模式(quasi resonant mode)时,前次第一开启时间PWMON0与目前第一开启时间PWMON1大于电源转换器100的一次侧PRI的功率开关104的开启时间。例如,如图3所示,前次第一开启时间PWMON0大于功率开关104的开启时间TON0,以及目前第一开启时间PWMON1大于功率开关104的开启时间TON1。In addition, as shown in FIG. 2 , when the power converter 100 is in a continuous current mode (continuous current mode, CCM), the previous first turn-on time PWMON0 and the current first turn-on time PWMON1 are equal to the primary side of the power converter 100 The turn-on time of the power switch 104 of the PRI. When the power converter 100 is in a discrete current mode (discrete current mode, DCM) and a quasi resonant mode (quasi resonant mode), the previous first turn-on time PWMON0 and the current first turn-on time PWMON1 are greater than those of the power converter 100 Turn-on time of the power switch 104 of the primary side PRI. For example, as shown in FIG. 3 , the previous first turn-on time PWMON0 is longer than the turn-on time TON0 of the power switch 104 , and the current first turn-on time PWMON1 is longer than the turn-on time TON1 of the power switch 104 .

FIG. 4 shows the dead time of the secondary side SEC of the power converter 100 when the synchronous rectifier 200 uses the ideal turn-on signal SRWIDTH corresponding to the secondary side SEC of the power converter 100 disclosed in the second embodiment of the present invention. , the ideal turn-on signal SRWIDTH, the second ramp voltage RV2 corresponding to the next ideal second turn-on time ISWON2 of the secondary side SEC of the power converter 100 and the next second target voltage TV2 determine the secondary side SEC of the power converter 100 Schematic diagram of the next turn-on time of SRGATE2. As shown in Figure 4, the ideal turn-on signal SRWIDTH includes a previous ideal second turn-on time ISWON0, a current ideal second turn-on time ISWON1 and a next ideal second turn-on time ISWON2, wherein the previous ideal second turn-on time ISWON0, the current The ideal second turn-on time ISWON1 and the next ideal second turn-on time ISWON2 are related to the ideal turn-on time of the synchronous switch 108 of the secondary side SEC of the power converter 100 . After the time-to-voltage conversion unit 202 receives the ideal turn-on signal SRWIDTH, the time-to-voltage conversion unit 202 can generate a third voltage V3 (corresponding to the previous ideal second turn-on time ISWON1) according to the previous ideal second turn-on time ISWON0 and the current ideal second turn-on time ISWON1 respectively. Two turn-on time ISWON0) and a fourth voltage V4 (corresponding to the current ideal second turn-on time ISWON1), and according to the next ideal second turn-on time ISWON2 corresponding to the secondary side SEC of the power converter 100, generate a corresponding next ideal second turn-on time ISWON2 The second ramp voltage RV2 of the second turn-on time ISWON2. As shown in FIG. 4, when the difference between the third voltage V3 and the fourth voltage V4 sampled by the sampling unit 204 is greater than a second predetermined value, the adjustment value generation unit 206 may The difference is to generate the next second adjustment value AV2, wherein the next second adjustment value AV2 is a fixed value or an adjustable value. In addition, when the difference between the third voltage V3 and the fourth voltage V4 is not greater than the second predetermined value, the adjustment value generation unit 206 does not generate the next second adjustment value AV2, but outputs a generation of the previous adjustment value. The second adjustment value output by unit 206 . The target voltage generation unit 208 can generate the next second target voltage TV2 according to the fourth voltage V4 corresponding to the current ideal second turn-on time ISWON1 and the next second adjustment value AV2. The next second adjustment value AV2 is subtracted from the fourth voltage V4 of the second turn-on time ISWON1 to generate the next second target voltage TV2. In addition, when the difference between the third voltage V3 and the fourth voltage V4 is not greater than the second predetermined value, the adjustment value generation unit 206 outputs the second adjustment value output last time. At this time, the target voltage generation unit 208 generates the next second target voltage TV2 according to the fourth voltage V4 corresponding to the current ideal second on-time ISWON1 and the second adjustment value output by the adjustment value generation unit 206 last time. As shown in FIG. 4 , the gate driving unit 210 can determine the gate of the secondary side SEC of the power converter 100 according to the second ramp voltage RV2 corresponding to the next ideal second turn-on time ISWON2 and the next second target voltage TV2.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 4 , the difference between the next second on-time SRGATE2 and the next ideal second on-time ISWON2 is the next dead time DT2 of the secondary side SEC of the power converter 100 .
如图4所示,当第三电压V3大于第四电压V4(也就是说前次理想第二开启时间ISWON0大于目前理想第二开启时间ISWON1且第三电压V3和第四电压V4之间的差大于第二预定值)时,同步整流器200会使下一第二开启时间SRGATE2小于电源转换器100的二次侧SEC的目前第二开启时间SRGATE1,也就是说下一空载时间DT2会大于电源转换器100的二次侧SEC的目前空载时间DT1。As shown in FIG. 4, when the third voltage V3 is greater than the fourth voltage V4 (that is to say, the previous ideal second turn-on time ISWON0 is greater than the current ideal second turn-on time ISWON1 and the difference between the third voltage V3 and the fourth voltage V4 greater than the second predetermined value), the synchronous rectifier 200 will make the next second turn-on time SRGATE2 less than the current second turn-on time SRGATE1 of the secondary side SEC of the power converter 100, that is to say, the next dead time DT2 will be greater than the power supply The current dead time DT1 of the secondary side SEC of the converter 100 .
另外,虽然图4是以前次理想第二开启时间ISWON0大于目前理想第二开启时间ISWON1为例,但本发明并不受限于前次理想第二开启时间ISWON0大于目前理想第二开启时间ISWON1。也就是说当前次理想第二开启时间ISWON0小于目前理想第二开启时间ISWON1,导致第三电压V3和第四电压V4之间的差大于第二预定值时,同步整流器200也会根据上述同步整流器200的操作原理使下一第二开启时间SRGATE2小于目前第二开启时间SRGATE1,以确保电源转换器100的一次侧PRI与二次侧SEC不会同时开启。In addition, although FIG. 4 is an example where the previous ideal second on-time ISWON0 is greater than the current ideal second on-time ISWON1 , the present invention is not limited to the fact that the previous ideal second on-time ISWON0 is greater than the current ideal second on-time ISWON1 . That is to say, when the current ideal second turn-on time ISWON0 is less than the current ideal second turn-on time ISWON1, resulting in a difference between the third voltage V3 and the fourth voltage V4 greater than the second predetermined value, the synchronous rectifier 200 will also operate according to the above synchronous rectifier The operation principle of 200 makes the next second turn-on time SRGATE2 smaller than the current second turn-on time SRGATE1 to ensure that the primary side PRI and the secondary side SEC of the power converter 100 are not turned on at the same time.
请参照图5,图5是本发明第三实施例公开的一种控制电源转换器100的二次侧SEC空载时间的同步整流器500的示意图。如图5所示,时间电压转换单元202可根据目前理想第二开启时间ISWON1,产生对应目前理想第二开启时间ISWON1的理想电压IV1,以及根据下一理想第二开启时间ISWON2,产生对应下一理想第二开启时间ISWON2的第二斜坡电压RV2。如图5所示,调整值产生单元206可通过同步整流器500的引脚220接收有关于电源转换器100的二次侧SEC的输出电压VCC的一检测电压DV,以及根据检测电压DV和一参考电压VREF,产生一目前调整值AV,其中目前调整值AV是一定值或一可调整值。也就是说当检测电压DV发生变化(例如检测电压DV增加或减少),导致检测电压DV和参考电压VREF之间的差大于一第三预定值时,调整值产生单元206可根据检测电压DV和参考电压VREF之间的差,产生目前调整值AV。另外,当检测电压DV和参考电压VREF之间的差不大于第三预定值时,调整值产生单元206并不会产生目前调整值AV,而是输出一前次调整值产生单元206所输出的调整值。另外,检测电压DV是等于耦接于电源转换器100的二次侧SEC的输出端OUT的一节点FBNODE的电压或等于耦接于电源转换器100的二次侧SEC的光耦合器222的一节点CNODE的电压。如图5所示,在调整值产生单元206产生目前调整值AV之后,目标电压产生单元208可根据对应电源转换器100的二次侧SEC的目前理想开启时间ISWON1的理想电压IV1和目前调整值AV,产生一下一目标电压TV。另外,当检测电压DV和参考电压VREF之间的差不大于第三预定值时,调整值产生单元206输出前次所输出的调整值。此时,目标电压产生单元208是根据对应电源转换器100的二次侧SEC的目前理想开启时间ISWON1的理想电压IV1和调整值产生单元206前次所输出的调整值,产生下一目标电压TV。如图5所示,在目标电压产生单元208产生下一目标电压TV后,栅极驱动单元210可根据对应下一理想第二开启时间ISWON2的第二斜坡电压RV2与下一目标电压TV,决定电源转换器100的二次侧SEC的栅极控制信号GCS的下一第二开启时间SRGATE2,其中同步信号SYN、理想开启信号SRWIDTH、栅极控制信号GCS、下一目标电压TV和第二斜坡电压RV2的波形可参照图4,在此不再赘述。Please refer to FIG. 5 . FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram of a synchronous rectifier 500 for controlling the dead time of the secondary side SEC of the power converter 100 disclosed in the third embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 5 , the time-to-voltage conversion unit 202 can generate an ideal voltage IV1 corresponding to the current ideal second on-time ISWON1 according to the current ideal second on-time ISWON1, and generate an ideal voltage IV1 corresponding to the next ideal second on-time ISWON2 according to the next ideal second on-time ISWON2. The second ramp voltage RV2 of the ideal second turn-on time ISWON2. As shown in FIG. 5 , the adjustment value generation unit 206 can receive a detection voltage DV related to the output voltage VCC of the secondary side SEC of the power converter 100 through the pin 220 of the synchronous rectifier 500, and according to the detection voltage DV and a reference The voltage VREF generates a current adjustment value AV, wherein the current adjustment value AV is a fixed value or an adjustable value. That is to say, when the detection voltage DV changes (for example, the detection voltage DV increases or decreases), causing the difference between the detection voltage DV and the reference voltage VREF to be greater than a third predetermined value, the adjustment value generation unit 206 can adjust the value according to the detection voltage DV and The difference between the reference voltages VREF yields the current adjustment value AV. In addition, when the difference between the detection voltage DV and the reference voltage VREF is not greater than the third predetermined value, the adjustment value generation unit 206 does not generate the current adjustment value AV, but outputs the value output by the previous adjustment value generation unit 206 Adjust the value. In addition, the detection voltage DV is equal to the voltage of a node FBNODE coupled to the output terminal OUT of the secondary side SEC of the power converter 100 or equal to a voltage of the optocoupler 222 coupled to the secondary side SEC of the power converter 100 . The voltage at node CNODE. As shown in FIG. 5 , after the adjustment value generation unit 206 generates the current adjustment value AV, the target voltage generation unit 208 can be based on the ideal voltage IV1 corresponding to the current ideal turn-on time ISWON1 of the secondary side SEC of the power converter 100 and the current adjustment value AV, to generate a target voltage TV. In addition, when the difference between the detection voltage DV and the reference voltage VREF is not greater than the third predetermined value, the adjustment value generation unit 206 outputs the adjustment value output last time. At this time, the target voltage generation unit 208 generates the next target voltage TV according to the ideal voltage IV1 corresponding to the current ideal turn-on time ISWON1 of the secondary side SEC of the power converter 100 and the adjustment value output by the adjustment value generation unit 206 last time. . As shown in FIG. 5 , after the target voltage generating unit 208 generates the next target voltage TV, the gate driving unit 210 can determine according to the second ramp voltage RV2 corresponding to the next ideal second turn-on time ISWON2 and the next target voltage TV. The next second turn-on time SRGATE2 of the gate control signal GCS of the secondary side SEC of the power converter 100, wherein the synchronization signal SYN, the ideal turn-on signal SRWIDTH, the gate control signal GCS, the next target voltage TV and the second ramp voltage The waveform of RV2 can be referred to FIG. 4 , and will not be repeated here.
由于调整值产生单元206可在检测电压DV发生变化(例如检测电压DV增加或减少),导致检测电压DV和参考电压VREF之间的差大于第三预定值时,产生目前调整值AV,所以同步整流器500可使下一第二开启时间SRGATE2小于目前第二开启时间SRGATE1(也就是说下一空载时间DT2会大于目前空载时间DT1),以确保电源转换器100的一次侧PRI与二次侧SEC不会同时开启。Since the adjustment value generation unit 206 can generate the current adjustment value AV when the detection voltage DV changes (for example, the detection voltage DV increases or decreases), resulting in the difference between the detection voltage DV and the reference voltage VREF being greater than the third predetermined value, so synchronous The rectifier 500 can make the next second turn-on time SRGATE2 smaller than the current second turn-on time SRGATE1 (that is to say, the next dead time DT2 will be greater than the current dead time DT1), so as to ensure that the primary side PRI of the power converter 100 is consistent with the secondary Side SEC will not be turned on at the same time.
请参照图6,图6是本发明第四实施例公开的一种应用在电源转换器600的二次侧SEC的同步整流器利用电源转换器600包含的补偿开关610补偿电源转换器600的二次侧SEC的输出电流IOUT的示意图。如图6所示,电源转换器600和电源转换器500的差别在于电源转换器600还包含补偿开关610,其中应用在电源转换器600的二次侧SEC的同步整流器可以是如图1所示的同步整流器200或如图5所示的同步整流器500。如图6所示,当耦接于电源转换器600的二次侧SEC的负载较大时,应用在电源转换器600的二次侧SEC的同步整流器可利用电源转换器600的二次侧SEC的同步开关108的栅极控制信号GCS或对应电源转换器600的二次侧SEC的同步开关108的理想开启信号SRWIDTH,开启补偿开关610以补偿电源转换器600的二次侧SEC的输出电流IOUT。如图6所示,当补偿开关610根据电源转换器600的二次侧SEC的同步开关108的栅极控制信号GCS或对应电源转换器600的二次侧SEC的同步开关108的理想开启信号SRWIDTH开启时,节点FBNODE的电压下降,导致电源转换器600的二次侧SEC的输出电压VCC下降。因为电源转换器600的二次侧SEC的输出电压VCC下降,所以电源转换器600的一次侧PRI会转换更多能量至电源转换器600的二次侧SEC的负载。另外,在本发明的还一实施例中,当耦接于电源转换器600的二次侧SEC的负载较大时,应用在电源转换器600的二次侧SEC的同步整流器可利用电源转换器600的一次侧PRI的功率开关104的控制信号PWM,开启补偿开关610以补偿电源转换器600的二次侧SEC的输出电流IOUT。Please refer to FIG. 6. FIG. 6 is a synchronous rectifier applied to the secondary side SEC of the power converter 600 disclosed in the fourth embodiment of the present invention. The compensation switch 610 contained in the power converter 600 is used to compensate the secondary side of the power converter 600. Schematic diagram of the output current IOUT on the side SEC. As shown in FIG. 6 , the difference between the power converter 600 and the power converter 500 is that the power converter 600 also includes a compensation switch 610, wherein the synchronous rectifier applied to the secondary side SEC of the power converter 600 can be as shown in FIG. 1 The synchronous rectifier 200 or the synchronous rectifier 500 shown in FIG. 5 . As shown in FIG. 6 , when the load coupled to the secondary side SEC of the power converter 600 is large, the synchronous rectifier applied to the secondary side SEC of the power converter 600 can utilize the secondary side SEC of the power converter 600 The gate control signal GCS of the synchronous switch 108 or the ideal turn-on signal SRWIDTH of the synchronous switch 108 corresponding to the secondary side SEC of the power converter 600 turns on the compensation switch 610 to compensate the output current IOUT of the secondary side SEC of the power converter 600 . As shown in FIG. 6 , when the compensation switch 610 responds to the gate control signal GCS of the synchronous switch 108 of the secondary side SEC of the power converter 600 or the ideal turn-on signal SRWIDTH of the synchronous switch 108 corresponding to the secondary side SEC of the power converter 600 When turned on, the voltage of the node FBNODE drops, causing the output voltage VCC of the secondary side SEC of the power converter 600 to drop. Because the output voltage VCC of the secondary side SEC of the power converter 600 drops, the primary side PRI of the power converter 600 will transfer more energy to the load of the secondary side SEC of the power converter 600 . In addition, in another embodiment of the present invention, when the load coupled to the secondary side SEC of the power converter 600 is relatively large, the synchronous rectifier applied to the secondary side SEC of the power converter 600 can use the power converter The control signal PWM of the power switch 104 of the primary side PRI of 600 turns on the compensation switch 610 to compensate the output current IOUT of the secondary side SEC of the power converter 600 .

Start time SRGATE2, jump back to step 902 and step 914.
在步骤902和步骤914中,如图5所示,时间电压转换单元202可根据目前理想第二开启时间ISWON1,产生对应目前理想第二开启时间ISWON1的理想电压IV1,以及根据下一理想第二开启时间ISWON2,产生对应下一理想第二开启时间ISWON2的第二斜坡电压RV2。在步骤906中,如图5所示,调整值产生单元206可通过同步整流器500的引脚220接收有关于电源转换器100的二次侧SEC的输出电压VCC的检测电压DV,以及根据检测电压DV和参考电压VREF,产生目前调整值AV,其中目前调整值AV是一定值或一可调整值。也就是说当检测电压DV发生变化(例如检测电压DV增加或减少),导致检测电压DV和参考电压VREF之间的差大于第三预定值时,调整值产生单元206可根据检测电压DV和参考电压VREF之间的差,产生目前调整值AV。另外,检测电压DV是等于耦接于电源转换器100的二次侧SEC的输出端OUT的节点FBNODE的电压或等于耦接于电源转换器100的二次侧SEC的光耦合器222的节点CNODE的电压。在步骤908中,如图5所示,在调整值产生单元206产生目前调整值AV之后,目标电压产生单元208可根据对应电源转换器100的二次侧SEC的目前理想开启时间ISWON1的理想电压IV1和目前调整值AV,产生下一目标电压TV。另外,在步骤910中,当检测电压DV和参考电压VREF之间的差不大于第三预定值时,调整值产生单元206并不会产生目前调整值AV,而是输出前次调整值产生单元206所输出的调整值。在步骤912中,当检测电压DV和参考电压VREF之间的差不大于第三预定值时,目标电压产生单元208是根据对应电源转换器100的二次侧SEC的目前理想开启时间ISWON1的理想电压IV1和调整值产生单元206前次所输出的调整值,产生下一目标电压TV。在步骤916中,如图5所示,在目标电压产生单元208产生下一目标电压TV后,栅极驱动单元210可根据对应下一理想第二开启时间ISWON2的第二斜坡电压RV2与下一目标电压TV,决定电源转换器100的二次侧SEC的栅极控制信号GCS的下一第二开启时间SRGATE2。In step 902 and step 914, as shown in FIG. 5 , the time-to-voltage conversion unit 202 can generate an ideal voltage IV1 corresponding to the current ideal second on-time ISWON1 according to the current ideal second on-time ISWON1, and generate an ideal voltage IV1 corresponding to the next ideal second on-time The turn-on time ISWON2 generates a second ramp voltage RV2 corresponding to the next ideal second turn-on time ISWON2 . In step 906, as shown in FIG. 5 , the adjustment value generation unit 206 may receive the detection voltage DV related to the output voltage VCC of the secondary side SEC of the power converter 100 through the pin 220 of the synchronous rectifier 500, and according to the detection voltage DV and the reference voltage VREF generate a current adjustment value AV, wherein the current adjustment value AV is a fixed value or an adjustable value. That is to say, when the detection voltage DV changes (for example, the detection voltage DV increases or decreases), causing the difference between the detection voltage DV and the reference voltage VREF to be greater than the third predetermined value, the adjustment value generating unit 206 can adjust the value according to the detection voltage DV and the reference The difference between voltages VREF yields the present adjustment value AV. In addition, the detection voltage DV is equal to the voltage of the node FBNODE coupled to the output terminal OUT of the secondary side SEC of the power converter 100 or equal to the node CNODE of the optocoupler 222 coupled to the secondary side SEC of the power converter 100 voltage. In step 908, as shown in FIG. 5 , after the adjustment value generation unit 206 generates the current adjustment value AV, the target voltage generation unit 208 can generate the ideal voltage corresponding to the current ideal turn-on time ISWON1 of the secondary side SEC of the power converter 100 IV1 and the current adjustment value AV generate the next target voltage TV. In addition, in step 910, when the difference between the detection voltage DV and the reference voltage VREF is not greater than the third predetermined value, the adjustment value generation unit 206 does not generate the current adjustment value AV, but outputs the previous adjustment value generation unit 206 output adjustment value. In step 912, when the difference between the detection voltage DV and the reference voltage VREF is not greater than the third predetermined value, the target voltage generation unit 208 is based on the current ideal turn-on time ISWON1 corresponding to the secondary side SEC of the power converter 100. The voltage IV1 and the previous adjustment value output by the adjustment value generation unit 206 generate the next target voltage TV. In step 916, as shown in FIG. 5 , after the target voltage generating unit 208 generates the next target voltage TV, the gate driving unit 210 can generate the next target voltage TV according to the second ramp voltage RV2 corresponding to the next ideal second turn-on time ISWON2 and the next The target voltage TV determines the next second turn-on time SRGATE2 of the gate control signal GCS of the secondary side SEC of the power converter 100 .
由于调整值产生单元206可在检测电压DV发生变化(例如检测电压DV增加或减少),导致检测电压DV和参考电压VREF之间的差大于第三预定值时,产生目前调整值AV,所以同步整流器500可使下一第二开启时间SRGATE2小于目前第二开启时间SRGATE1(也就是说下一空载时间DT2会大于目前空载时间DT1),以确保电源转换器100的一次侧PRI与二次侧SEC不会同时开启。Since the adjustment value generation unit 206 can generate the current adjustment value AV when the detection voltage DV changes (for example, the detection voltage DV increases or decreases), resulting in the difference between the detection voltage DV and the reference voltage VREF being greater than the third predetermined value, so synchronous The rectifier 500 can make the next second turn-on time SRGATE2 smaller than the current second turn-on time SRGATE1 (that is to say, the next dead time DT2 will be greater than the current dead time DT1), so as to ensure that the primary side PRI of the power converter 100 is consistent with the secondary Side SEC will not be turned on at the same time.
综上所述,本发明所公开的控制电源转换器的二次侧空载时间的方法是当同步信号的前次第一开启时间与目前第一开启时间之间的差大于第一预定值、理想开启信号的前次理想第二开启时间与目前理想第二开启时间之间的差大于第二预定值或有关于电源转换器的二次侧的输出电压的检测电压与参考电压之间的差大于第三预定值时,缩短电源转换器的二次侧的同步开关的栅极控制信号的开启时间,以确保电源转换器的一次侧与二次侧不会同时开启。另外,当耦接于电源转换器的二次侧的负载较大时,本发明也可通过开启补偿开关补偿电源转换器的二次侧的输出电流,以因应电源转换器的二次侧的较大的负载。To sum up, the method for controlling the dead time of the secondary side of the power converter disclosed in the present invention is that when the difference between the previous first turn-on time of the synchronization signal and the current first turn-on time is greater than the first predetermined value, The difference between the previous ideal second on time of the ideal on signal and the current ideal second on time is greater than a second predetermined value or a difference between a detection voltage and a reference voltage related to the output voltage of the secondary side of the power converter When greater than the third predetermined value, the turn-on time of the gate control signal of the synchronous switch on the secondary side of the power converter is shortened to ensure that the primary side and the secondary side of the power converter are not turned on at the same time. In addition, when the load coupled to the secondary side of the power converter is large, the present invention can also compensate the output current of the secondary side of the power converter by turning on the compensation switch, so as to cope with the relatively large load of the secondary side of the power converter. large load.
