VI. Choice of control ground In traditional single-phase bridge PFC, the negative electrode of the PFC capacitor is generally used as the control AGND, because the voltage at this point is connected to the input L and N through the rectifier bridge. When the input is in the positive half cycle, AGND is clamped to the N line by the rectifier bridge; when the input is in the negative half cycle, AGND is clamped to the L line by the rectifier bridge; therefore, the negative electrode of the bus capacitor AGND (equivalent to PE) is a change of industrial frequency. Since the input is generally 50Hz AC, it is relatively stable and can be used as the control ground of the control circuit. However, compared with Vienna PFC, it is different. The midpoint of the bus capacitor relative to the midpoint of the power frequency voltage (PE) is a 5-level high-frequency change level at the switching level: ±2/3Vo, 0, ±1/3Vo (Vo here represents half of the bus voltage, with a typical value of 400V. Please refer to the eon in the switch state attachment for how the 5 levels are generated). If such a large high-frequency fluctuation is used as the control ground, then the noise and common-mode interference will be very large, which may cause inaccurate sampling voltage and drive, seriously affecting the reliability of the circuit. Since the high-frequency change of the midpoint of the capacitor cannot be used as the control ground, what should we do? Can we construct a virtual ground as the control ground AGND? We can use the Y-type connection method to generate a virtual ground as the control ground by connecting the three-phase input through a voltage divider resistor. However, after constructing this control ground, all other sampling and driving must work in a differential and isolated manner relative to this control ground. In this way, the midpoint O of the output capacitor is separated from the control ground AGND, avoiding interference caused by high-frequency drastic changes. Figure 18 Control area AGND Does this perfectly solve the control ground problem? In the actual working process, AGND still has violent fluctuations. It is not as calm as we imagined. AGND fluctuates violently along with O, and the peak-to-peak value of AGND is very large. How to solve it? The fundamental reason is that there is a sampling resistor connection between AGND and O (sampling of output voltage), and there is a Y capacitor connection between AGND and PE. Under the action of the high-frequency signal at point O, AGND is naturally forced to share a certain proportion of the voltage. The solution is to add a low-resistance path between AGND and PE to reduce the impedance and bear a certain voltage to reduce the ripple voltage of AGND-PE. VII. Analysis of bus voltage equalization principle We know that the bus voltage 800V of the three-phase Vienna PFC topology is divided by two capacitors C1 and C2 in series. The potential O at the midpoint of the capacitor is determined by the charging and discharging of the capacitor. The voltages of the two capacitors should be balanced to maintain the true three-level operating conditions. Otherwise, the output voltage may contain undesirable harmonics and even affect the integrity of the circuit. The balance of the positive and negative busbars of the three-phase three-level PFC will affect the performance of the PFC: 1. Input current THD; 2. The stress of the power switch tube and diode (their own and the subsequent power circuit); 3. The busbar capacitor is prone to overvoltage during dynamic operation; The potential deviation of the capacitor midpoint is related to the charging and discharging process of the positive and negative busbar capacitors of the PFC. It can be seen from the attached switch state that there is no current flowing into or out of the capacitor midpoint in the working state of group a and group z, so the charging and discharging of the two capacitors are the same and no bias is generated. Only the switching state of groups b, c, and d will affect the difference in the charging and discharging of the PFC busbar capacitor and generate bias. According to the previous working principle analysis, the POP working state only charges the capacitor C1, and the ONO working state only charges the capacitor C2. Therefore, the midpoint potential can be controlled according to these two working states. In the control, the action time of the two working states of ONO and POP can be adjusted to balance the voltage. Figure 19 C2 charging Figure 20 C1 charging At this time, a bias loop can be added to the entire control loop to adjust the action time of ONO and POP to balance the bus voltage. Specific implementation method: the positive bus and the negative bus are sampled respectively, and then the difference (DC component) is obtained. The difference is adjusted by the compensator of the bias loop and superimposed on the input current reference sine wave. After precise rectification, it is transformed into a double half-wave with different amplitudes as the given current loop, so as to change the action time of ONO and POP and improve the PFC bus voltage balance. Figure 21 Bias setting As shown in Figure 22, compa, compb and compc are the results calculated by the current loop of each phase. Taking the 0~30 degree sector as an example, when the voltage of the positive bus relative to the midpoint is lower than that of the negative bus, the setting of the positive half-wave becomes smaller, the setting of the negative half-wave becomes larger, the time of the POP working state becomes longer, and the charging time for the positive bus capacitor becomes longer; the time of the ONO working state becomes shorter, and the charging time for the negative bus capacitor becomes shorter. When the voltage of the positive bus relative to the midpoint is higher than that of the negative bus, the given value of the positive half-wave becomes larger, the given value of the negative half-wave becomes smaller, the action time of POP becomes longer, the time for charging the positive bus capacitor becomes shorter, the action time of ONO becomes longer, and the charging time for the negative bus becomes longer. In the figure, the solid line of comp value represents the value of the previous cycle, and the dotted line represents the value of the current cycle; the shaded part represents the time of change; Figure 22 Schematic diagram of voltage balance control The above description is that when the main power circuit is working normally, the voltage of the PFC bus capacitor can be controlled by adjustment, but what about when the module is started? The auxiliary power supply can be used to directly draw power from +400V~-400V. Due to the difference in capacitors, the internal resistance cannot be completely equal, and the bias voltage will also be generated. Another thing is to use a higher-level MOSFET, which is costly. In addition, the standby loss of the charging module is also a problem. Many customers require that the standby loss of the module cannot exceed a certain amount. Of course, there is another way to draw power from the auxiliary power supply, which is also the mainstream way of manufacturers now. That is, an auxiliary power supply is hung on both the positive and negative busbars. When starting the machine, the bus capacitor is charged through the charging resistor. The transformer adopts the winding competition method. Whoever has a higher bus voltage will be used to supply power. This can well ensure the voltage balancing effect of the module during the starting process; after the module works normally, the same principle applies. However, drawing power directly from +800V does not have this effect. Figure 23 Schematic diagram of auxiliary power supply There is more content to share. I hope everyone will pay attention.
