Abstract:
An algorithm is proposed for dual-transistors forward converter (DTFC) by using the principle of charge balance control during a transient process to improve their dynamic performance. Combined with response curve,the theoretical analysis and some key equations are presented to improve the dynamic performance of the DTFC by minimizing the over/under shoot and the recovery time. In order to avoid the magnetic saturation of the transformer,an approximate method is introduced in the calculation of the optimal switching time,which can also be applied to other isolated converters when the maximum duty cycle is limited. Finally,the simulation results and the experimental results of the prototype show that,compared with the traditional voltage mode control,the proposed algorithm can significantly improve the dynamic performance of DTFCs.
