    摘要: Aspects include a hold-up capacitor charging circuit for a power supply. The hold-up capacitor charging circuit (10) includes a voltage boosting charge pump circuit (20) with a hold-up capacitor (24) electrically coupled to a voltage source (26). The hold-up capacitor charging circuit also includes a fly-back circuit (40). The fly-back circuit includes a transformer (42) with a primary winding electrically coupled to the voltage source and a secondary winding electrically coupled to a load. A switch (44) is electrically coupled to the primary winding and the voltage boosting charge pump circuit. A controller (48) is operable to open and close the switch to control energy transfer from the primary winding to the secondary winding and charge the hold-up capacitor responsive to voltages of the voltage source, the voltage boosting charge pump circuit, and a reflected voltage of the secondary winding at the primary winding.

    摘要: A bootstrap gate driver charging circuit arranged to drive the gate of an upper switch (Q U ) and a lower switch (Q L ) connected in series to provide an AC output voltage (400) voltage by alternatively turning on and off according to a predetermined duty cycle of alternate upper switch turn-on and lower switch turn-on phases, the bootstrap gate driver charging circuit comprising: an input terminal; an output terminal; an H-bridge inverter with an inverter input and an inverter output; a charging path; and a bootstrap capacitor (70); wherein the input inverter is electrically connected to the input terminal, the inverter output is electrically connected to a first end of the bootstrap capacitor, the charging path is electrically connected between a second end of the bootstrap capacitor and a gate driver supply voltage; wherein in response to the lower switch being turned ON and providing a path to ground with respect to the gate driver's supply voltage and in response to the lower switch being turned off, the charging circuit provides a sufficient voltage level to maintain the upper switch ON for the duration of the upper switch turn-on phase by toggling the upper and lower switches for a short period of time during the upper switch turn-on phase, so as to maintain the charge of the bootstrap capacitor during that phase.

    摘要: An electrical power converter (1, 1', 1") includes a DC link capacitor (3, 3', 3") configured for connection to a DC power source to provide an input load, at least one pair of semiconductor switches (2a, 2b, 2c, 2a', 2b', 2a", 2b") connected in parallel with the DC link capacitor (3, 3', 3") and positioned on either side of an output load terminal (10a, 10b, 10c, 10a', 10b', 10a", 10b"). The electrical power converter (1, 1', 1") further includes an inductive current sensor (12, 12', 12"), arranged to sense a primary current from a terminal of the DC link capacitor (3, 3', 3"), and a detection circuit (14), connected to the inductive current sensor (12, 12', 12") and arranged to monitor for an over-current condition, and to produce an output which causes at least one of the pair of semiconductor switches (2a, 2b, 2c, 2a', 2b', 2a", 2b") to be switched to a non-conducting state when an over-current condition is detected.
