Switching power supply circuit design involves several key components that work together to convert and regulate electrical power efficiently. The main circuit consists of an input electromagnetic interference (EMI) filter, a rectification and filtering stage, a power conversion section, a pulse-width modulation (PWM) controller, and an output rectification and filtering unit. In addition, the auxiliary circuits include over-voltage protection on both the input and output sides, as well as over-current and short-circuit protection mechanisms.
The input circuit typically includes a lightning protection system using metal oxide varistors (MOVs) such as MOV1, MOV2, and MOV3, along with fuses F1, F2, and F3, and a diode FDG1. These components help dissipate high voltage surges caused by lightning strikes or power line disturbances, protecting the rest of the circuit. The input filter, usually a double π-type network made up of capacitors C1, L1, C2, and C3, suppresses electromagnetic noise and prevents interference from affecting the power supply or being sent back into the grid. A thermistor RT1 is often used to limit inrush current during startup, ensuring smooth operation.
The rectifier and filter stage converts AC input to DC using a bridge rectifier BRG1 and a capacitor C5, which smooths out the DC voltage. If C5 degrades, the output may experience increased ripple. For DC input, similar filtering techniques are applied, with additional safety capacitors like C3 and C4 and differential mode inductors L2 and L3 helping to further reduce noise.
In the power conversion stage, MOSFETs are commonly used as switching devices due to their high efficiency and fast switching characteristics. These transistors operate based on gate-source voltage, allowing precise control over current flow. Buffer circuits involving resistors R4, R5, capacitors C3, C4, and diodes D1 and D2 help manage voltage spikes and improve stability. The PWM controller, such as UC3842, adjusts the duty cycle based on feedback from the output to maintain stable voltage and current levels.
Push-pull configurations and transformer-based designs are also common, with drive transformers T2 and switching transformers T1 playing critical roles in signal transmission and isolation. Output rectification circuits vary depending on the application, with forward, flyback, and synchronous rectification methods each offering different advantages in terms of efficiency and complexity.
Each of these components plays a vital role in ensuring the reliability and performance of the switching power supply, making it suitable for a wide range of applications from consumer electronics to industrial systems.
