Abstract: A power supply device, a circuit control method and a power supply system, belonging to the field of power supply conversion technologies. The power supply device can ensure that a second-stage conversion circuit has a sufficiently high valley voltage by means of a valley-fill circuit without using an electrolytic capacitor or other large-volume capacitors, thereby ensuring that the output voltage of the power supply device is overall stable. On the other hand, the power supply device can, by controlling the voltage of an energy storage unit, utilize the ability of the energy storage unit to store electric energy as far as possible whilst ensuring that the voltage does not exceed a specific voltage, so as to lower the requirements on the voltage resistance of the energy storage unit, thereby realizing the miniaturized design of the power supply device and improving the portability of the power supply device.

Abstract: A power supply, a power supplying method, and a computer-readable storage medium are provided. The power supply includes a rectifier circuit and a valley-fill circuit. The rectifier circuit is used for voltage transformation of an input AC voltage to obtain a first pulsating DC voltage. The valley-fill circuit includes at least one energy storage capacitor and is used for storing energy through the at least one energy storage capacitor when the first pulsating DC voltage output by the rectifier circuit is in a first preset range and providing energy through the at least one energy storage capacitor when the first pulsating DC voltage output by the rectifier circuit is lower than a preset threshold, thereby to increase the valley voltage of the first pulsating DC voltage.

The apparatus includes: a rectifier module (210) configured to rectify an alternating current (alternating current) voltage to obtain a first pulsating direct current (direct current) voltage; a conversion module (300) configured to convert the first pulsating direct current voltage to obtain a stable direct current voltage; and a valley-fill circuit (220) having an input terminal connected to an output terminal of the rectifier module (210) and an output terminal connected to an input terminal of the conversion module (300). The valley-fill circuit (220) is configured to release electric energy to the conversion module (300) when a voltage value of the first pulsating direct current voltage is smaller than a first voltage threshold, to increase a valley voltage of the first pulsating direct current voltage inputted to the conversion module (300).

Abstract: Improved regulation and transient response are provided by a power supply architecture providing both unregulated and regulated voltage converters in parallel but deriving input power from separate power supplies connected in series wherein regulated and unregulated branches each provide a substantially fixed and constant proportion of the output current. The series connection of input power sources may provide a further feedback mechanism in addition to feedback for regulation which enhances overall performance. As a perfecting feature of the invention, inductor-less resonant converters which are switched in an interleaved fashion may be used in the unregulated branch while substantially cancelling the characteristic large output voltage ripple thereof.

Abstract: A voltage converter having four switches Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4, connected in series and operated in pairs in a complementary fashion. An input voltage is provided across the four switches. A middle capacitor is connected in parallel with two middle switches Q2, Q3. Voltage output is provided across switches Q3 and Q4 (i.e. at a midpoint of the four switches). Series-connected output capacitors can be connected in parallel with the set of four switches. The middle capacitor alone or in combination with parallel connected capacitors, when connected to the input voltage or output terminals functions as a capacitive voltage divider for voltage conversion and/or regulation with extremely high efficiency and which can provide either step-down or step-up function. Also, an output inductor can be provided as a perfecting feature to further increase efficiency. Alternatively, two of the four switches can be replaced with rectifying diodes.

Abstract: A voltage converter uses a component such as a JFET or four-terminal power MOSFET having no body diode and exhibiting no body diode conduction characteristic as a synchronous rectifier to reduce switching losses and body diode conduction losses and to support high frequency switching so that use of smaller components and higher current densities can be achieved. These effects are enhanced by a self-driven circuit utilizing positive feedback to enhance switching speed and reduce switching losses which increase with switching frequency.

Abstract: Power converters having reduced body diode conduction loss, reduced reverse recovery loss and lower switching noise, among other benefits, have a resonant capacitor Cr connected across an unfiltered output. The resonant capacitor Cr resonates with the leakage inductance Lk of the transformer. The resonant capacitor and leakage inductance are selected such that ½ a LC resonance period is equal to an ON time of each secondary switch S1 S2. The resonance provides zero current switching for secondary switches S1 S2, eliminates zero body diode conduction during dead times, and eliminates reverse recovery losses in the secondary switches. The present invention is applicable to many different circuit topologies such as full bridge, active clamp forward, push-pull forward, and center-tap secondary. The present converters provide high energy conversion efficiency and high frequency operation.
