  • Publication number: 20240014733
    Abstract: A method for controlling a totem-pole PFC circuit. When an alternating current of an input end of a totem-pole PFC circuit is in a positive half period, if a previous switching period is less than specified duration, after charging of a PFC inductor is completed, a switch that enables the PFC inductor to be discharged is first delayed for specified threshold duration, and then the switch that enables the PFC inductor to be discharged is turned on, so that the switch that enables the PFC inductor to be discharged is turned on only once. In an existing PFC application, when an input voltage is in a positive half period, a switch that enables a PFC inductor to be discharged needs to be turned on twice.

  • Publication number: 20230421074
    Abstract: A three-level neutral point clamped inverter includes four switch units. When an average value of an output current of the three-level neutral point clamped inverter is greater than a first current threshold or less than a second current threshold, only one of the four switch units is controlled to perform a high-frequency operation, to reduce power consumption caused by a high-frequency operation. The average value of the output current is an average value of the output current of the three-level neutral point clamped inverter in a switching cycle. The first current threshold is a positive number, and the second current threshold is a negative number. Power consumption caused by the high-frequency operation of the switch unit in the inverter may be reduced, and electric energy conversion efficiency of the inverter may be improved. A time period in which two switch units perform complementary operations at high frequency is very small.
