Abstract:
Disclosed is a method of acquiring input and output voltage information by employing a pulse width modulation (PWM) controller, which is in collocation with an input power processing unit, a primary inductor, a switch element, a current-sensing resistor, an output rectifier, and an output filter for converting an alternating current input power into an rectified input power and an output power, and the output power supplies an external load. A current-sensing signal is specifically disposed and applied to calculation of the input voltage and output voltage of the rectified input power when the switch element is turned on and off, respectively. Thus, no resistive voltage divider is needed, and power consumption at no load is greatly improved.

Abstract:
A multifunction power conversion device for dynamical detection includes an input filter unit, a transformer, a switching transistor, a driving controller, a feedback unit and an output unit. Two sensing signals from the primary and auxiliary coils of the transformer form a current sensing zero detection signal. The digital control unit of the driving controller determines if a current flowing through a secondary coil of the transformer is reduced to zero due to discharging, and further finds valley of the current of the secondary coil. The switching transistor is turned on after a preset number of the valley and then turned off by a process of current sense. Therefore, the present invention greatly reduces switching loss, increases efficiency of power conversion, and particular, enhances flexibility of application to meet actual requirements by simply updating program executed by the digital control unit.
