  • Publication number: 20240186909
    Abstract: Disclosed is a soft switch control circuit and a flyback converter, comprising a primary edge part and a secondary edge part, and obtaining a trigger pulse signal according to a pre-turning on signal of a main switch transistor before the main switch transistor is turned on. The trigger pulse signal is transmitted to the secondary edge part by an isolation module to control the switch at a secondary edge circuit to conduct, to reduce source-drain voltage of the main switch circuit of the primary edge, to make the main switch transistor to turn on when the source-drain voltage is near zero voltage. The switch of the secondary edge circuit is a synchronous rectifying switch transistor or a discharge switch transistor connected at two ends of the synchronous rectifying switch transistor.

  • Publication number: 20240120849
    Abstract: Disclosed is a protection circuit of a flyback converter and a control method. The protection circuit comprises: an active discharge module, for providing a discharge path between a first current terminal and a second current terminal of a switch transistor in a resonance circuit, and controlling turning-on and turning-off of the discharge path according to a discharge enable signal; in the normal work state of the flyback converter, the discharge path is disconnected, the resonance circuit works, before the flyback converter is restarted, the discharge path is turned on for a predetermined time period to release charges stored in the resonance circuit, and the resonance current after the flyback converter is restarted is reduced to the safe work current of the second switch transistor. The resonance current is discharged before the flyback converter is restarted, thus reducing the resonance current and enhancing system stability and security.
