    摘要: Converters (1) for supplying pulsed power to light sources (8) comprise switching parts (2) and controlling parts (3) for adapting switching parameters of the switching parts (2) for improving a performance. The switching part (2) may comprise first/second switches (41, 42) that are in first/second modes during a first time interval of a cycle and vice versa during a second time intervals of a cycle. A group of cycles results in a pulse of the pulsed power. A switching parameter such as the first time interval of a first cycle may be shortened to reduce overshoot. A switching parameter such as the second time interval of the first cycle may be shortened or lengthened. A switching parameter such as the second time interval of a last cycle may be lengthened or shortened to reduce overshoot. A third switch (93) for switching the light source (8) is activated and de-activated delayedly to improve transient behavior.

    摘要: A switching circuit arrangement (100) comprises a field effect transistor (40) and circuitry (50, 52, 54, 60, 62) for biasing the gate voltage of the field effect transistor (40), in particular forcing the gate voltage of the field effect transistor (40) under a certain threshold, in particular under a certain positive threshold level. In embodiments, reverse recovery as well as gate bounce are simultaneously mitigated. In one embodiment, the biasing circuitry comprises a biasing diode (52) connected in series to the gate (G) of the field effect transistor (40) to bias the gate voltage of the field effect transistor (40), as well as a clamping field effect transistor unit (62) connected between the gate (G) of the field effect transistor (40) and the source (S) of the field effect transistor (40) to force the gate voltage of the field effect transistor (40) under a certain threshold, in particular under a certain positive threshold level.

    摘要: A control method is proposed that enables to drive a resonant (LLC) power converter at low loads with substantially reduced power losses for realizing a stand-by power. The reduction is achieved by a sub-critical operation several times below Resonance Frequency while still keeping zero voltage switching. One half-bridge switch (s1) is turned on for a short pulse - in the remaining time of the sub-critical switching period the resonant current oscillates through the other switch (s2). Zero voltage switching is obtained by evaluating the resonant capacitor voltage. The pulse length determines the stand-by power and is used as controlling variable. The power supply is suitable for Consumer Electronics products that require a low power standby supply.

    摘要: A feedback circuit for a zero-voltage-switching converter (1) for feeding a load circuit (2, 3), which converter (1) comprises a chopper (4), a driver (5) and a resonant tank (6), is provided with an arrangement (10) for receiving a first signal derived from a resonant tank signal and a second signal derived from a load circuit signal and for generating in response thereto a control signal for the driver (5). Such converters (1) can stand feeding voltage fluctuations and load variations relatively well. The arrangement (10) may comprise an error circuit (12) for, in response to the second signal and a reference signal, generating an error signal, and a combiner circuit (13) for, in response to the first signal and the error signal, generating the control signal. The same converter (1) may be used for supplying two or more load circuits (2, 3), in which case an error circuit (15) may generate an error signal and a duty cycle signal or two error signals.
