摘要： Adaptive multi-mode digital control schemes that improve the light-load efficiency (and thus the overall average efficiency) in switch-mode power converters without causing performance issues such as audible noises or excessive voltage ripples. Embodiments include a switch-mode power converter that reduces current in the power converter using a second pulse-width-modulation (PWM) mode before reaching switching frequencies that generate audible noises. As the load across the output of the power converter is reduced, the power converter transitions from a first PWM mode in high load conditions to a first pulse frequency-modulation (PFM) mode, then to a second PWM mode, and finally to a second PFM mode. During the second PFM mode, the switching frequency is dropped to audible frequency levels. Current in the power converter, however, is reduced in the second PWM mode before transitioning to the second PFM mode.
摘要翻译：自适应多模数字控制方案，可以提高开关模式电源转换器的轻负载效率（从而提高整体平均效率），而不会引起诸如声音噪声或电压波动过大等性能问题。实施例包括开关模式功率转换器，其在达到产生可听见噪声的开关频率之前，使用第二脉冲宽度调制（PWM）模式减小功率转换器中的电流。随着功率转换器输出端的负载减小，功率转换器从高负载状态的第一个PWM模式转换到第一个脉冲频率调制（PFM）模式，然后转换到第二个PWM模式，最后到第二个PWM模式 PFM模式。在第二个PFM模式下，开关频率下降到可听频率水平。然而，在转换到第二PFM模式之前，功率转换器中的电流在第二PWM模式中减小。

摘要： In a switching power converter, PWM mode and PFM mode are separated into two independent control sections with the control voltage range in each control section determined independently. Each of the PWM and PFM modulation modes cannot operate continuously beyond its boundaries, thereby forming a control gap between the two control sections within which no continuous operation is allowed. In order to supply a load condition within the control gap, the power supply operates at the two boundaries of the control gap. Transition between PWM and PFM modes occurs fast, with low output voltage ripple. No limitation needs to be imposed on the control voltage range in each of the PWM and PFM control sections, because the control parameters in the PWM and PFM control sections need not be matched to one another, due to separation of the PWM and PFM modes by the control gap.
摘要翻译：在开关电源转换器中，PWM模式和PFM模式分为两个独立控制部分，每个控制部分的控制电压范围独立确定。每个PWM和PFM调制模式不能连续超过其边界，从而在两个控制部分之间形成一个控制间隙，在这两个控制部分之间不允许连续操作。为了在控制间隙内提供负载条件，电源在控制间隙的两个边界处工作。 PWM和PFM模式之间的转换发生得很快，输出电压波动较小。由于PWM和PFM控制部分中的控制参数不需要彼此匹配，所以PWM和PFM控制部分的控制电压范围不需要对每个PWM和PFM控制部分的控制电压范围施加限制，控制差距。

摘要： A hybrid constant current control system that uses both pulse width modulation (PWM) and pulse frequency modulation (PFM) control. When transitioning from constant voltage mode to constant current mode the present invention can continue to control using PWM. Thereafter, when the voltage has dropped, the present invention smoothly transitions to PFM mode. The point of transition is based upon the switching frequency and the lowest rated voltage of operation. The system and method avoids very short (narrow) Ton times which ensures accurate constant current (CC) control with bipolar junction transistor (BJT) devices. The present invention also avoids acoustic noise because the switching frequency is maintained at a high enough level to avoid such acoustic noise even when the energy transferred through the transformer is still substantial and the output voltage is not too low. In addition the output current limit is insensitive to variation in the inductance-input voltage ratio, and is minimized against leakage inductance.
摘要翻译：一种采用脉宽调制（PWM）和脉冲频率调制（PFM）控制的混合恒流控制系统。当从恒定电压模式转换到恒定电流模式时，本发明可以使用PWM继续控制。此后，当电压下降时，本发明平滑地转变为PFM模式。转换点基于开关频率和最低额定工作电压。该系统和方法避免了非常短（窄）的Ton次，从而确保使用双极结型晶体管（BJT）器件进行精确的恒定电流（CC）控制。本发明还避免了声学噪声，因为即使当通过变压器传送的能量仍然很大并且输出电压不太低时，开关频率保持在足够高的水平以避免这种声学噪声。此外，输出电流限制对电感 - 输入电压比的变化不敏感，并且对漏电感最小化。

摘要： A controller of an AC/DC flyback switching power supply uses adaptive digital control approaches to control the switching operation of a BJT power switch based on primary-side feedback to regulate the secondary-side constant output voltage and output current, without using the input line voltage. Switching-cycle by switching-cycle peak current control and limit are achieved based on the sensed primary-side current rather than the input line voltage in both constant-voltage and constant-current modes, operating in PWM, PFM and/or combinations of a plurality of PWM and PFM modes. The controller IC does not need a separate pin and ADC circuitry for sensing the input line voltage. The controller IC directly drives the BJT base, and dynamically adjusts the BJT base current amplitude cycle by cycle based on load change

摘要： An improved valley-mode switching (VMS) scheme and circuitry for implementing the improved VMS switching scheme in a switch-mode power converter are disclosed. For a given switching cycle, a desired switch turn-on time is determined based on a pulse width modulation, pulse frequency modulation, or other suitable power converter control scheme. Also, one or more times corresponding to local minimums (valleys) are predicted for the voltage across a power switch of the switching power converter. The power switch is turned on at a valley immediately subsequent or otherwise subsequent to the desired switch time determined according to the power converter control scheme. Thus, the improved VMS scheme enables low-voltage switch operation to reduce switching loss and EMI noise without restricting the control scheme of the power converter.

摘要： An LED driver includes at least two interlocked closed feedback loops. One feedback loop controls the duty cycle of the on/off times of a switch connected in series to the LED string, and the other feedback loop controls the duty cycle of the on/off times of a power switch in the switching power converter that provides a DC voltage applied to the LED string. The LED driver of the present invention achieves fast control of the LED brightness and current sharing among multiple LED strings simultaneously in a power-efficient and cost-efficient manner.
