voltage / constant current output for use in battery charger applications.

The design is based on the LCS705HG operating from doubled mains, with no PFC input
stage. This design poses special challenges in that the primary and secondary voltages of
the LLC converter both vary over a wide range.

2.1 Actual Customer Specification for Output Voltage / Current Limit


An actual customer specification for output voltage and current is shown below, and is
considerably more complex than the simple implementation described in this report. The
end application will incorporate a microcontroller that performs the function of battery
recognition/authentication, and selection of output voltage and current limit depending
on battery type and state of charge. Output voltage and current limit can be
programmed by manipulating the reference voltages feeding the output voltage/current
sensing amplifiers in the secondary control circuit.

The circuit shown in this report is designed to supply the maximum output voltage of 23
V with output current limit set to a nominal value of 8 A. A pair of holes is provided on
the printed circuit board to allow inserting an extra resistor to program the output
current limit down to 0.5 A in order to examine the behavior of the supply at this current
limit.

4 Circuit Description
4.1 General Topology
The schematic in Figure 3 shows an LLC power supply utilizing the LCS705HG, powered
via a voltage doubler. The LNK302D is utilized in a flyback bias supply that provides
power for both primary and secondary control circuitry. The secondary control circuitry
provides CV/CC control for use in battery charger applications

4.2 EMI Filtering / Voltage Doubler


Capacitors C1 and C2 are used to control differential mode noise. Resistors R1-3
discharge C1 and C2 when AC power is removed. Inductor L1 controls common mode
EMI. The heat sink for U1 and BR1 is connected to primary return to eliminate the heat
sink as a source of radiated/capacitive coupled noise. Thermistor RT1 provides inrush
limiting. Capacitor C16 filters common mode EMI. Inductor L2 filters differential mode
EMI. Capacitors C3 and C4, along with BR1 form a voltage doubler to provide a ~250 -
380 VDC B+ supply from the 90-132 VAC input.

4.3 Primary Bias Supply


Components U2, T2 Q1, VR2-3, D11, C27-28, C30-31, R36-38 and R40 comprise a
regulated 12V flyback bias supply for U1. Components D9 and C29 generate a 12 V bias
supply for the secondary control circuitry via a triple insulated winding on T2 Vr3 and
D11 protect the U2 drain from leakage spikes.

4.4 LLC Converter


The schematic in Figures 3 depicts a 23 V, 184 W LLC DC-DC converter with constant
voltage/ constant current output implemented using the LCS705HG. Two main
transformers are shown in the schematic and layout, T1 (ETD34) and T3
(ETD39). Only the ETD34 transformer, T1, is used in this example.

Integrated circuit U1 incorporates the control circuitry, drivers and output MOSFETs
necessary for an LLC resonant half-bridge (HB) converter. The HB output of U1 drives
output transformer T1 via a blocking/resonating capacitor (C14). This capacitor was
rated for the operating ripple current and to withstand the high voltages present during
fault conditions.

Transformer T1 was designed for a leakage inductance of ~70 H. This, along with
resonating capacitor C14, sets the primary series resonant frequency at ~105 kHz
according to the equation:

fR 
6.28 LL  CR

www.power.com Page 10 of 81
31-May-17 DER-447, 184 W Battery Charger Power Supply

Where fR is the series resonant frequency in Hertz, LL is the transformer leakage


inductance in Henries, and CR is the value of the resonating capacitor (C14) in Farads.

The transformer turns ratio was set by adjusting the primary turns such that the
operating frequency at nominal input voltage and full load is greater than, the previously
described resonant frequency at the minimum B+ voltage (bottom of the ripple
waveform) at 90 VAC.

An operating frequency of 100 kHz was found to be a good compromise between


transformer size and operating frequency dynamic range, in view of the wide variation of
input and output voltage encountered in this application.

The number of secondary winding turns was chosen to provide a compromise between
core and copper losses. AWG #42 Litz wire was used for the primary and AWG #40 for
the secondary windings,

The core material selected was Ferroxcube 3F3. This material provided good (low loss)
performance.

Components D3, R19, and C6 comprise the bootstrap circuit to supply the internal high-
side driver of U1.

Components R18 and C10 provide filtering and bypassing of the +12 V input and the VCC
supply for U1. Note: VCC voltage of >15 V may damage U3.

Voltage divider resistors R4-10 set the high-voltage turn-on, turn-off, and overvoltage
thresholds of U1. The voltage divider values are chosen to set the LLC turn-on point at
~232 VDC and the turn-off point at 184 VDC, with an input overvoltage turn-off point at
400 VDC. Built-in hysteresis sets the input under voltage turn-off point at 184 VDC.
Components VR1, D2, R8, and R11 change the slope of the input voltage sensing
network to allow U1 to operate over a wide range of input voltage without prematurely
engaging the U1 OV shutdown. Without this clamp circuit, the supply would start at ~85
VAC, but would enter OV shutdown before the nominal 115 VAC operating voltage is
reached.

Capacitor C5 is a high-frequency bypass capacitor for the U1 B+ supply, connected with


short traces between the D and S1/S2 pins of U3.

Capacitor C15 forms a current divider with C14, and is used to sample a portion of the
primary current. Resistor R21 senses this current, and the resulting signal is filtered by
R20 and C13. Capacitor C15 should be rated for the peak voltage present during fault
conditions, and should use a stable, low-loss dielectric such as metalized film, SL
ceramic, or NPO/COG ceramic. The capacitor used in the DER-447 is a ceramic disc with

“COG/NPO” temperature characteristic. The values chosen set the 1 cycle (fast) current
limit at 12.2 A, and the 7-cycle (slow) current limit at 6.8 A, according to the equation:

0.5
I CL 
 C15 
   R 21
 C15  C14 

ICL is the 7-cycle current limit in Amperes, R40 is the current limit resistor in Ohms, and
C30 and C31 are the values of the resonating and current sampling capacitors in
nanofarads, respectively. For the one-cycle current limit, substitute 0.9 V for 0.5 V in the
above equation.

Resistor R20 and capacitor C13 filter primary current signal to the IS pin. Resistor R20 is
set to 220  the minimum recommended value. The value of C13 is set to 1 nF to avoid
nuisance tripping due to noise, but not so high as to substantially affect the current limit
set values as calculated above. These components should be placed close to the IS pin
for maximum effectiveness. The IS pin can tolerate negative currents, the current sense
does not require a complicated rectification scheme.

The Thevenin equivalent combination of R16 and R17 sets the dead time at 500 ns and
maximum operating frequency for U1 at 542 kHz. The DT/BF input of U1 is filtered by
C9. The combination of R16 and R17 also selects burst mode “1” for U1. This sets the
lower and upper burst threshold frequencies at 236 kHz and 270 kHz, respectively.

The FEEDBACK pin has an approximate characteristic of 2.6 kHz per A into the
FEEDBACK pin. As the current into the FEEDBACK pin increases so does the operating
frequency of U1, reducing the output voltage. The series combination of R12 and R13
sets the minimum operating frequency for U1 at 83 kHz. This value was set to be slightly
lower than the frequency required for regulation at full load and minimum bulk capacitor
voltage. Resistor R12 is bypassed by C7 to provide output soft start during start-up by
initially allowing a higher current to flow into the FEEDBACK pin when the feedback loop
is open. This causes the switching frequency to start high and then decrease until the
output voltage reaches regulation. Resistor R16 is typically set at the same value as the
parallel combination of R12 and R13 so that the initial frequency at soft-start is equal to
the maximum switching frequency as set by R16 and R17. If the value of R16 is less than
this, it will cause a delay before switching occurs when the input voltage is applied.

Optocoupler U4 drives the U1 FEEDBACK pin through R14, which limits the maximum
optocoupler current into the FEEDBACK pin. Capacitor C12 filters the FEEDBACK pin.
Resistor R15 loads the optocoupler output to force it to run at a relatively high quiescent
current, increasing its gain. Resistors R14 and R15 also improve large signal step
response and burst mode output ripple. Diode D1 isolates R15 from the FMAX/soft start
network.

4.5 Output Rectification


The output of transformer T1 is rectified and filtered by D4-5 and C17-19. Capacitors
C17-18 are aluminum polymer capacitors chosen for output ripple current rating.
Capacitor C19 provides damping to make frequency compensation easier. Output
rectifiers D4 and D5 are 60 V Schottky rectifiers chosen for high efficiency. Intertwining
the transformer secondary halves (see transformer construction details in section 7)
reduces leakage inductance between the two secondary halves, reducing the worst-case
peak inverse voltage and allowing use of a 60 V Schottky diode with consequent higher
efficiency.

4.6 Output Current and Voltage Control


Output current is sensed via resistors R34 and R35. These resistors are clamped by diode
D8 to avoid damage to the current control circuitry during an output short circuit.
Components R29 and U3 provide a voltage reference for current sense and voltage sense
amplifiers U5A and U5B. The reference voltage for current sense amplifier U5A is divided
down by R31-32, and filtered by C26. The default current limit setting for DER-447
is 8 A, as programmed by R34-35 and R31-32. An extra resistor can be placed
from J3-J4 (across R32) to program a lower current limit. Voltage from the
current sense resistors is applied to the inverting input of U5A via R33. Opamp U5A
drives optocoupler U4 via D6 and R23. Components R30, R33, R23, C24, and C33 are
used for frequency compensation of the current loop. Opamp U5B is used for output
constant voltage control when the current limit is not engaged. Resistors R24 and R27
sense the output voltage. A reference voltage is applied to the non-inverting input of U5B
from U3 via filter components R28 and C22. Opamp U5B drives optocoupler U4 via D7
and R22. Components R22, R24, R25-27, C20, and C21 all affect the frequency
compensation of the voltage control loop.

Components R39, SW1, and U6 provide remote start. When SW1 is opened, the output
transistor of U6 pulls down on the OV/UV pin of U1, activating undervoltage shutdown.
Closing SW1 turns off U6, allowing a normal start-up sequence for U1.

4.7 Designing Input Undervoltage / Overvoltage Network for U1


The UV/OV threshold voltages for the HiperLCS are set to a fixed ratio of 131%
(nominal), optimized for operation with a boost PFC front end. If this part is used with a
voltage doubler input stage instead, the B+ voltage range is too wide to be
accommodated by using a simple voltage divider to feed the OV/UV pin. If the voltage
divider is set so that the HiperLCS starts properly at the low end of the operating range
(~85 VAC), the HiperLCS B+ OV protection will cause the device to shut down before the
nominal operating voltage of 115 VAC is reached.

There are two solutions to this problem – the first is to clamp the voltage at the UV/OV
pin of the HiperLCS so as to disable the OV function. A more desirable solution is to use a
“soft clamp” to shape the output of the UV/OV voltage divider so that OV protection is

reached at a higher B+ voltage while still retaining the original UV set point. A circuit to
accomplish this is shown in Figure 4.

Figure 4 – UV/OV Divider Network.

Components R8, R9, R11, D2, and VR1 are used to shape the output voltage
characteristics of the divider network as shown in Figure 5, introducing a change of slope
that shifts the OV shutdown threshold to a higher B+ voltage.

Figure 5 – Comparison of Clamped vs. Unclamped UV/OV Voltage Divider Network.


In Figure 5, a clamped voltage divider is compared to a simple unclamped version,
showing the curve shaping that allows a higher B+ VOV setting than an unclamped divider
while keeping the same VUV set point.

4.7.1 Establishing Voltage Set Points


In order to properly calculate the values needed for the clamped voltage divider network,
five voltage set points are needed. These are: the internal VUV and VOV threshold voltages
for the HiperLCS IC, the desired B+ low voltage turn-on and OV shutdown thresholds
(VON and VOFF), and the inflection voltage (VINF) where the voltage divider curve changes
slope.

4.7.1.1 VUV and VOV

Voltages VUV and VOV are preset inside the HiperLCS IC. The nominal VUV threshold is set
at 2.4 V. The nominal VOV threshold is 131% of this value, or 3.14 V. This is covered in
the HiperLCS data sheet.

4.7.1.2 VON and VOFF

In this design example, the operating input voltage range is defined as 90-132 VAC.
Since the AC input is feeding a voltage doubler, the B+ voltage will be 2.8 X VIN, so the
nominal B+ will vary from 252-370 VDC. For this exercise, the VOFF point will be set at
400 VDC, sufficiently out of the way of normal operating range to prevent nuisance
tripping, but low enough to protect against input voltage swells and surges.

To choose the VON or VBROWNIN point, PIXls was used. A VBULK_NOM of 250 VDC was chosen
in the PIXls input parameters – this yields a VON/VBROWNIN of 232 VDC, as shown in Figure
6.

Figure 6 – Using PIXls to Determine VON/VBROWNIN.

4.7.1.3 Inflection Voltage (VINF)

The HiperLCS PIXls spreadsheet assumes that a normal unclamped voltage divider is
used to feed the HiperLCS UV/OV pin. A VBROWNIN/VON voltage of 232 V, allowing the
HiperLCS to turn on and run reliably at 90 VAC, will result in a overvoltage shutdown
point (VOV_SHUT) of 306 VDC, as shown on line 6 of Figure 6. For a nominal 115 VAC
operating voltage, the B+ is already at 115 X 2.8 = 322 VDC, so the OV shutdown
feature of the HiperLCS would cause the supply to shut down even before a normal AC

operating voltage is reached. This is the reason for using a clamped voltage divider to
push up the B+ voltage where OV shutdown occurs.

To design a clamped voltage divider a voltage VINF is defined, which sets the B+ voltage
at which the VOUT vs. VIN curve of the voltage divider changes slope. This should happen
somewhat above the nominal low line operating B+ of 250 VDC, but comfortably below
the unclamped VOV_SHUT of 306 VDC as defined in Figure 6. For this design example, a
VINF of 280 VDC was chosen.

Table 1 summarizes the voltages necessary for calculating the clamped voltage divider in
this design example.

In order to set the total values for voltage divider string R4-R6, R9, and R10, an initial
value for R10 is chosen. In this example, R10 = 10.5 k was chosen. This yielded
realizable 1% resistor values for the rest of the resistors in the network. Once R10 is
chosen, the top half of the voltage divider (R4 + R5 + R6 + R9 = RSUM) can be calculated
using the values for VUV and VON:

RSUM = [R10 (VON-VUV)]/VUV = [10.5 (232 - 2.4)]/2.4 = 1004.5 k

This value for RSUM can then be used with the Value for VINF to calculate the value
necessary for R9.

VINF is defined as the point at which the slope of the voltage divider changes. This
happens when the voltage drop across R9 and R10 is equal to the combined voltage
drops of VR1 and D2. VR1 is pre-biased by R11 to its nominal voltage drop of 5.1 V.
Diode D2 will barely start conducting at ~0.5 V. Given this, the combined voltage drops
add up to 5.6 V, and the value for R9 can be calculated as:

R9 = [5.6(RSUM + R10)-(VINF X R10)]/VINF = [(5.6 X 1015)-(280 X 10.5)]/280 = 9.8 k

The closest 1% resistor value is 9.76 k.

Resistor R11 is used to pre-bias Zener diode VR1. This bias current not only applies
reverse bias to diode D2 to keep it from conducting before necessary, but also
establishes a well-defined voltage drop across VR1. The value chosen for R11 results in a
bias current of ~2 mA through VR1.

Since R9 and RSUM are both defined, the rest of the resistors in the RSUM chain can be
calculated.

R4-R6 = (RSUM - R9)/3 = (1004.5 – 9.76)/3 = 331.58 k

The closest 1% value is 332 k

4.7.1.4 Setting Clamp Resistor R8

In order to set the proper value for clamp resistor R8, it first necessary to find the
voltage VSD across R9 and R10 that will result in OV shutdown for U1. This will be the
voltage across R9 and R10 that will provide 3.14 V to the U1 UV/OV pin.

VSD = VOV [1 + (R9/R10)] = 3.14 (1 + 0.9295) = 6.059 V

This is the voltage across R9 and R10 necessary to reach the OV threshold at the UV/OV
pin of U1.

It is next necessary to calculate voltage VSD at the junction of R6 and R9 at the B+


shutdown voltage VOFF of 400 VDC. This voltage is calculated as if R8 is open.

VSD = 400[(R9 + R10)/(R4 + R5 + R6 + R9 + R10)] = 7.97 V

Using VSD and VSD’, we can now set up the calculation for R8.

The voltage divider of R4-6, R9, and R10 driven by the VOFF value of 400 V can be re-
expressed as a voltage source VSD driving a Thevenin equivalent resistance. The
Thevenin resistance RTH is equivalent to the parallel combination of the top and bottom
halves of the voltage divider:

RTH = (R4 + R5 + R6) II (R9 + R10) = 19.6 k

Once this is determined, the voltage divider and clamp can be reduced to the schematic
shown in Figure 7.

From the simple equivalent schematic of Figure 7, it is straightforward to calculate R8:

R8 = RTH (VSD - 5.6)/(VSD - VSD) = (19.6(6.059 - 5.6))/(7.97 - 6.059) = 4.704 k

The nearest 1% value is 4.75 k

This transformer design was adjusted so the LLC converter will run above resonance over
its entire operating range, in order to make the control loop easier to stabilize by
avoiding the change in gain/phase characteristics that happens near resonance. This is
accomplished by finding the minimum B+ voltage at 90 VAC (the bottom of the ripple
waveform, using that voltage both as the nominal operating voltage and Vres

11 Performance Data
All measurements were taken at room temperature and 60 Hz (input frequency) unless
otherwise specified. Output voltage measurements were taken at the output connectors.

11.1 Output Load Considerations for Testing a CV/CC Supply in Battery


Charger Applications

Since this power supply has a constant voltage/constant current output and normally
operates in CC mode in its intended application (battery charging), some care must be
taken in selecting the type/s of output load for testing.

The default setting for most electronic loads is constant current. This setting can be used
in testing a CV/CC supply in the CV portion of its load range below the power supply
current limit set point. Once the current limit of the DUT is reached, a constant current
load will cause the output voltage of the DUT to immediately collapse to the minimum
voltage capability of the electronic load.

To test a CV/CC supply in both its CV and CC regions (an example - obtaining a V-I
characteristic curve that spans both the CV and CC regions of operation), an electronic
load set for constant resistance can be used. However, in an application such as an LLC
converter where the control loop is strongly affected by the output impedance, use of a
CR load will give results for loop compensation that are overly optimistic and will likely
oscillate when tested with an actual low impedance battery load, especially at low input
voltage where the LLC converter is operating closest to resonance.
For final characterization and tuning the output control loops, a constant voltage load
should be used.

Having said this, many electronic loads incorporate a constant voltage setting, but the
output impedance of the load in this setting may not be sufficiently low to successfully
emulate a real-world battery (impedance on the order of tens of milliohms). Simulating
this impedance can be crucial in properly setting the compensation of the current control
loop in order to prevent oscillation at low AC input voltage in a real-life application.

11.3 V-I Characteristic


The V-I characteristic showing the transition from constant voltage mode to constant
current mode was measured using an electronic load set for constant resistance to allow
proper operation of the DUT in both CV and CC mode. The measurements cut off a ~5 V,
as this is the minimum load voltage attainable by the electronic load in CR mode.

11.3.2 Output V-I Characteristic, Constant Voltage Load


The V-I characteristic in constant current mode was measured using an electronic load
set for constant voltage, as the electronic load used had a wider operating range in CV
mode than in CR mode. In Figure 22, the output was set for a nominal default current
limit value of 8 A. The output current was measured using a 1 milliohm shunt and Fluke
67 DVM, as the current readings were not steady on the metering of the electronic load.
The actual reading was 7.9 A, which is within 1.25% of the nominal set point of 8 A.

The output current limit for the readings in Figure 23 was set to 0.5 A by placing a
resistor in parallel with R32 in the current limit reference divider chain. The value of this
resistor was tweaked to obtain an exact result. In a real world application, some variance
of output current limit could be expected due to the extremely low value of reference
voltage necessary for this current limit setting (7.5 mV), combined with variation in offset
voltage for current limit sense amplifier U5A. Output current was measured using a Fluke
87 DVM, using its internal shunt.
Since the power supply is operating in burst mode, there can be some variance in the
average output current as interpreted by the meter.

12.5 LLC Output Short-Circuit


The figures below show the effect of an output short circuit on the LLC primary current
and on the output current. Figure 47 shows the output voltage and primary current
response to an output short circuit. Figure 48 shows the output current and output
voltage during a short circuit. A mercury displacement relay was used to short the output
in order to achieve a fast, bounce-free connection. Even so, there is some relay bounce
in the short circuit test shown in Figure 48. The supply shuts down without damage and
recovers when the short is removed.

12.6 Output Ripple Measurements

12.6.1 Ripple Measurement Technique


For DC output ripple measurements a modified oscilloscope test probe is used to reduce
spurious signals. Details of the probe modification are provided in the figures below.

Tie two capacitors in parallel across the probe tip of the 4987BA probe adapter. Use a
0.1 F / 50 V ceramic capacitor and 1.0 F / 100 V aluminum electrolytic capacitor. The
aluminum-electrolytic capacitor is polarized, so always maintain proper polarity across DC
outputs.

12.6.2.2 0.5 A Output Current Limit Setting

For this output current setting, the power supply operates in burst mode. Since the CV
electronic load cannot source current (as compared to an actual battery being charged),
the output voltage collapses between bursts. A DC coupled probe is used for
measurements in this instance due to the high amplitude of the ripple voltage compared
to the DC output voltage.

14 Constant Current Output Gain-Phase


Gain-phase was tested using an electronic load set to constant voltage mode at 22.5 V
with the output current limit of the UUT set for 8 A. This is a worst-case setting that
places the output in constant current mode near the knee of the CV/CC V-I characteristic
so that the output power is maximized and operating frequency is minimized, placing the
operating point of the LLC converter near resonance. Using a CV load maximizes the CC
loop gain (worst case for control loop) and simulates operating while charging a battery.
Using the constant resistance setting for the electronic load will yield overly optimistic
results for gain-phase measurements and for determining component values for
frequency compensation.

Red/Blue – 90 VAC Gain and Phase Crossover Frequency – 1.3 kHz, Phase Margin – 52°.
Brown/Green – 115 VAC Gain and Phase Crossover Frequency – 730 Hz, Phase Margin – 65°.
Aqua/Pink – 132 VAC Gain and Phase Crossover Frequency – 370 Hz, Phase Margin – 101°.
