Different loads degree and choose operation mode appropriate, mainly include: in PFC preset apparatu 20 and/or DC_DC converter
30 load condition is idling when to carry (the first curve) and corresponding load current be zero, also known as zero load when, power supply control
Device 10 processed is chosen and executes the mode of handling;If load condition is in idling load (the first curve) and corresponding load current is not
When being zero, then chooses and execute burst mode;If it is in low-load, then chooses and execute discontinuous conduction mode;And such as
Fruit is then to choose in heavy duty and execute continuous conduction mode.
Specifically, the above-mentioned mode that handles is to utilize with the frequency F1 of the first break P1 in Fig. 1 and produced with intermittent mode
Raw first, second PWM drive signal, and the first switch unit T1, the second switch unit T2 are respectively driven, it can be by out-put supply
VOUT is handled.Burst mode is usually to be generated with the frequency F1 of the first break P1 with the intermittent mode also closeer than handling mode
And the first, second PWM drive signal is driven, output power can be improved by a small margin for needed for corresponding load.
Furthermore load LD1 is matched with the frequency F1 of minimum switching frequency, can be configured to be avoided that audio noise, and
Load LD2 is matched with the frequency F2 of maximum switching frequency, can be configured to that switch cost can be reduced.In particular, load LD1, frequency
F1 is unrelated with the voltage range of input power, and load LD2, frequency F2 can with the voltage range of input power decline/on
It rises and opposite rise/fall.
When load is lower than load LD1, above-mentioned switching frequency can by strangulation, be fixed on frequency F1 and (handle mode and prominent
Hair mode).
When load is when loading between LD1 and LD2, switching frequency can be done linearly or nonlinearly between frequency F1, F2
Modulation.
When load be higher than load LD2 when, switching frequency can by strangulation, be fixed on frequency F2.
In short, handling mode and burst mode all can be configured in a certain fixed frequency region, to reduce without negative
Power consumption when load, and discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) is to be configured in variation frequency region, to reduce switching damage when load
It loses, and continuous conduction mode (CCM) is to be configured in fixed and variation frequency region, to reduce conduction losses when overloaded.
Therefore, the present invention is using specific effect that above-mentioned different frequency loaded work piece curve is reached, identical defeated
Enter under supply voltage, if load is heavier, the electric current loaded is bigger, can be by the frequency for increasing by the first, second PWM drive signal
So that conduction losses reduce, and for low-load, because the electric current of load is smaller, so influence of the lower frequency to conduction losses
Very little, in addition it is negligible, it but can reach the purpose for reducing switch cost.
