Detailed Description

As shown in fig. 1 to 4, the power adapter according to the embodiment of the present invention includes a planar transformer 100, where the planar transformer 100 includes a magnetic core 110 and a circuit board (in fig. 2 and 3, the circuit boards are denoted by reference numerals 121 and 122), the circuit board has one or more boards, the circuit board is mounted in the magnetic core 110, the magnetic core has a center pillar 1111, and the center pillar 1111 is inserted into the circuit board.

As shown in fig. 2 and 3, in the present embodiment, the magnetic core is formed by two parts, the two parts of the magnetic core are a first part 111 and a second part 112, respectively, the center pillar 1111 is located on the first part 111, and the center pillar 1111 may be in a shape of a cylinder, square, rectangle, ellipse, or the like. The first portion 111 may have an E-shaped cross-section, and the second portion 112 may have a plate-like or E-shaped cross-section.

Referring to fig. 3, the circuit board has a circular through hole 123 therein, and a center pillar 1111 is inserted into the circular through hole 123 of the circuit board.

In the existing adapters, a step-down transformer is mostly adopted, so that the current of a secondary coil is several times larger than that of a primary coil, and in order to reduce the copper loss of the secondary coil, the number of turns Ns of the secondary coil is selected to be 1 or 2 (the resistance value of a wire with a large number of turns is large, the copper loss is in direct proportion to the resistance value and is in direct proportion to the square of the current).

The coil comprises a primary coil and a secondary coil, the number of turns of the secondary coil is Ns, the number of turns of the primary coil is Np, the Np/Ns is more than or equal to 4, for example, the Np/Ns is 4,5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 and the like, and the Np/Ns can be more than or equal to 5, the Np/Ns is more than or equal to 6, the Np/Ns is more than or equal to 7, the Np/Ns is more than or equal to 8, the Np/Ns is more than or equal to 9, the Np/Ns is more than or equal to 10, the Np/Ns is more than or equal to 11, the Np/Ns is more than or equal to 12 and the like; ns ≧ 3, e.g., Ns ≧ 3,4,5, 6, 7, 8, etc., although Ns ≧ 4, Ns ≧ 5, Ns ≧ 6, Ns ≧ 7, Ns ≧ 8, etc.; the current density J of the coil is more than or equal to 10A/mm²J/(Wd T), I is the average current of the coil, Wd is the coil trace width, and T is the coil trace (copper skin) thickness.

Because the traditional wire-wound transformer is low in manufacturing cost, attempts can be made to increase the number of turns of the secondary coil, for example, Ns is set to be 4, but because the heat dissipation of the lead of the wire-wound transformer is too poor, the current density J of the coil cannot be too high, the capacity of improving the transformer is limited, and the size of the transformer is difficult to be reduced. However, from experience of wire-wound transformers, some may also apply Ns 4 to planar transformers, simply change the core structure from EE to EI, change from thicker to thinner, jump out of thinking, or select a large core effective area, and only make the transformer thinner and the core volume very large, so as to increase the current of the coil as a limiting condition of the patent, and set the current density J of the coil to be not less than 10A/mm²、J≥13A/mm²、J≥15A/mm²And so on.

When the ratio of the number of turns Np of the primary coil to the number of turns Ns of the secondary coil is a certain value and the Np/Ns is more than or equal to 4, the current density J of the coil is set to be more than or equal to 10A/mm²E.g. J10A/mm²、13A/mm²、15A/mm²、18A/mm²、20A/mm²、25A/mm²、30A/mm²、35A/mm²、40A/mm²Of course, J.gtoreq.13A/mm²、J≥15A/mm²、J≥18A/mm²、J≥20A/mm²、J≥25A/mm²、J≥30A/mm²、J≥35A/mm²、J≥40A/mm²When the number of turns Ns of the secondary coil is increased from 1,2 to 3,4,5 …, the number of turns Np of the primary coil is also significantly increased, and thus the number of turns N of the planar transformer is significantly increased. Under the condition that the power of the power adapter is not changed (such as 100W), under the condition that the magnetic induction intensity B is not changed, according to the formula of LI/NA (B is the magnetic induction of the magnetic core, L is the inductance of the magnetic core coil, I is the current flowing through the coil, N is the number of turns of the magnetic core coil, and A is the effective area of the magnetic core), the product of LI is set to be constant, the product of NA is also constant, the effective area A of the magnetic core can be reduced due to the increase of the number of turns of the coil N, that is, the cross-sectional area of the center pillar is reduced, and since the cross-sectional area of the center pillar is reduced, the circular through-hole of the circuit board is also reduced, and the coil is arranged around the center pillar, so the area of the circuit board occupied by the coil is reduced, the area of the circuit board is correspondingly reduced, so that the volumes of the circuit board and the magnetic core are reduced, and the volume of the planar transformer is reduced due to the reduction of the volumes of the circuit board and the magnetic core, so that the volume of the power adapter is reduced. Therefore, Np/Ns is more than or equal to 4, and the current density J of the coil is more than or equal to 10A/mm²The number of turns Ns of the secondary coil is set to be not less than 3, the number of turns N of the coil is increased under the condition that the power is the same, the effective area of the magnetic core is reduced, the area of the circuit board is reduced, the size of the circuit board and the size of the magnetic core are reduced, the size of the planar transformer can be designed to be smaller, and the size of the power adapter is smaller. The width Wd of the coil wire can be reduced by increasing the current density of the coil, so that the window area of the transformer can be smaller, the size of the transformer is further reduced, and the size of the power adapter is further reduced.

At certain switching frequencies, according to the formula B LI/NA, those skilled in the art often tend to consider increasing the number of coil turns to help increase the inductance value, but if the core material is already close to its energy storage limit, increasing the number of coil turns saturates the core, and the inductance value actually falls instead of increasing. Therefore, increasing the number of turns of the coil increases the size of the coreAnd correspondingly the size and volume of the transformer are increased, and the magnetic core is ensured to be unsaturated. Under the condition of the same power, Np/Ns is more than or equal to 4, the turn number Ns of the secondary coil is more than or equal to 3, and the current density J of the coil is more than or equal to 10A/mm²And the product of LI and NA is set to be unchanged, so that the number of turns of the coil N is increased, the effective area A of the magnetic core can be reduced, the volumes of the circuit board and the magnetic core are reduced, the volumes of the planar transformer are reduced due to the reduction of the volumes of the circuit board and the magnetic core, the volume of the power adapter is reduced, and the existing technical bias is overcome. (the inductance of the coil of the magnetic core is in direct proportion to the square of the turns of the coil, the inductance is suddenly increased by increasing the turns, and the inductance can be adjusted by adjusting the air gap of the magnetic core to keep the LI constant, the inductance is very sensitive to the change of the air gap, and the inductance is very remarkably reduced when the air gap is slightly increased.)

In addition, according to the formula LI/NA, when designing a transformer, the magnetic material must be prevented from approaching its energy storage limit, i.e., B cannot be greater than Bsat (Bsat being the saturation induction of the selected magnetic core material).

For example, a 100W adapter is designed, given input and output voltage, input and output current and efficiency requirements, a topological mode is determined, and the number of turns NP of a primary coil, the number of turns Ns of a secondary coil and the turn ratio n of the primary coil to the secondary coil are determined as NP/Ns. When N <4, the total number of turns N is small, for example, when N is 3 and Ns is 2, the number of turns of the primary coil is 6, the number of turns of the secondary coil is 2, and the total number of turns is 8, even if the number of turns Ns of the secondary coil is doubled to 4, the number of turns of the primary coil is 12, and the total number of turns is 16, the number of layers of the coil in the circuit board is not too large. Therefore, when n <4, the design is complex, one may try to increase the number of secondary turns to increase the storage capacity of the transformer, and one skilled in the art often tends to think that increasing the number of turns will saturate the core, and therefore increasing the number of turns will increase the size of the core, otherwise a small core will have a catastrophic result with high power, and one skilled in the art will tend not to increase the number of secondary turns Ns when n increases again. Therefore, under the condition of the same power, the Np/Ns is more than or equal to 4, the turn number Ns of the secondary coil is more than or equal to 3, the product of the LI product and the NA product is set to be unchanged, the turn number N of the coil is increased, the effective area A of the magnetic core is reduced, the volumes of the circuit board and the magnetic core are further reduced, the volumes of the planar transformer are reduced due to the reduction of the volumes of the circuit board and the magnetic core, the volume of the power adapter is further reduced, and the existing technical bias is overcome. (the product of LI can be set to be unchanged, the product of NA can be slightly increased, or N can be increased, L, A can be adjusted so that the value of LI/NA is unchanged or smaller, ensuring that B is not greater than Bsat and A is reduced.)

For example, the conventional primary coil has 12 turns and the secondary coil has 2 turns. In the utility model, the number of turns of the primary coil is 18, and the number of turns of the secondary coil is 3; the number of primary coil turns is 24 and the number of secondary coil turns is 4. Although increasing the number of turns N of the coil increases the number of layers of the coil (for example, from 8 layers to 16 layers), the coil trace of the circuit board is very thin, the number of coil layers is large, and although the circuit board becomes thick, the volume increased by the increase of the thickness is much smaller than the volume reduced by the circuit board and the magnetic core, so the volume of the planar transformer is slightly affected by the increase of the thickness of the circuit board.

In addition, the magnetic loss of the planar transformer is related to the volume of the planar transformer, and the larger the volume of the planar transformer is, the larger the magnetic loss of the planar transformer is, so that the volume of the planar transformer is reduced, and the reduction of the magnetic loss is facilitated.

As shown in fig. 4, each circuit board includes an insulating layer 1212 and a coil 1213, and the insulating layer 1212 and the coil 1213 in each circuit board have a plurality of layers.

The method for manufacturing the inner-layer circuit by adopting the outer-layer insulation sealing is suitable for the circuit board with the primary coil and the circuit board with the secondary coil, the coil and the connecting hole thereof are sealed by the insulation layer, and the purpose of electrically isolating the circuit board with the primary coil from the circuit board with the secondary coil or electrically isolating two adjacent circuit boards with the primary coil or electrically isolating the circuit boards with the secondary coil or isolating the circuit boards from the magnetic core is achieved, so that the high-voltage resistant requirement of the primary coil is met, and the voltage resistant requirement can be met without pasting pressure resistant adhesive paper or pouring insulation adhesive between the circuit board with the primary coil and the circuit board with the secondary coil.

The connection parts of the two adjacent circuit boards with the secondary coils have a large space therebetween, so that electronic components can be arranged, and the electronic components 140 are arranged on the upper surface and the lower surface of the connection parts of the circuit boards with the secondary coils. Of course, if the circuit board has four pieces, the upper two layers are circuit boards with primary coils, the lower two layers are circuit boards with secondary coils, the connection part of the circuit board with the primary coil on the uppermost layer and the connection part of the circuit board with the secondary coil on the third layer are exposed out of the left side of the magnetic core, and electronic components can be arranged between the two layers at a larger distance; the connecting part of the circuit board with the primary coil on the second layer and the connecting part of the circuit board with the secondary coil on the lowest layer are exposed out of the right side of the magnetic core, and electronic components can be arranged between the two parts at a larger interval.

In the utility model, electronic components are arranged on the circuit board with the primary coil or the circuit board with the secondary coil or the circuit board with the primary coil and the circuit board with the secondary coil.

In fig. 1,2, 3, and 5, electronic components are provided on a circuit board with a secondary coil (hereinafter referred to as a second circuit board).

The circuit boards are packaged into a whole through insulating pouring sealant, and the circuit boards can also be packaged into a whole together with the magnetic core. The pouring sealant has the advantages of enhancing the insulation strength between the circuit board with the primary coil and the circuit board with the secondary coil and being beneficial to heat conduction and heat dissipation of the transformer.

The circuit board further comprises a power supply coil of an auxiliary power supply, the power supply coil of the auxiliary power supply comprises an auxiliary coil of a primary circuit and an auxiliary coil of a secondary circuit, and the voltage of the auxiliary coil of the primary circuit is in direct proportion to the voltage input by the power supply.

As shown in fig. 11 and 12, a buffering heat sink 130 is disposed between the magnetic core and the circuit board, and the buffering heat sink 130 can eliminate vibration sound generated during operation of the planar transformer and also can perform a heat dissipation function, and is preferably a silicone sheet.

In one embodiment, the circuit board has three, two for the circuit board with the primary coil, one for the circuit board with the secondary coil, three circuit boards stacked one on top of the other, the uppermost layer being the circuit board with the primary coil (hereinafter referred to as a first circuit board 121), the middle layer being the circuit board with the secondary coil (hereinafter referred to as a second circuit board), and the lowermost layer being the circuit board with the primary coil. A silicone sheet 130 is disposed between the uppermost first circuit board 121 and the first portion 111 of the magnetic core, and a silicone sheet 130 is disposed between the lowermost first circuit board 121 and the second portion 112 of the magnetic core.

The loss P of the transformer is the sum of copper loss P1 and iron loss P2 (also called core loss), that is, P is P1+ P2, and P1 is ρ L/S (ρ is the resistivity of copper is a fixed value, L is the length of the coil, S is the cross-sectional area of the copper sheet of the coil, which is the product of the width Wd of the coil trace and the thickness T of the copper sheet of the coil). According to the iron loss formula P2 ═ Pv × Ve (Pv is the core loss per unit volume and Ve is the core volume), since the number of turns N of the coil increases, the effective area a of the core decreases, and thus the core volume also decreases, so that the iron loss also decreases. Therefore, Np/Ns is more than or equal to 4, the turn number Ns of the secondary coil is more than or equal to 3, the sectional area S of the lead is increased by increasing the thickness of the copper sheet of the coil, the iron loss of the transformer is reduced while the volume of the planar transformer is reduced, the copper loss is not increased, and the total power loss of the transformer is reduced.

In other embodiments, copper loss may also be reduced by adding at least one circuit board with a primary coil or a circuit board with a secondary coil without changing the coil width and copper skin thickness.

The primary coil has multiple layers, the secondary coil has multiple layers, and at least two circuit loops of the primary coil and/or at least two circuit loops of the secondary coil are/is provided.

As shown in fig. 13 and 14, in one embodiment, the circuit board has five circuit boards, the five circuit boards are stacked up and down, the circuit board with the primary coil (hereinafter referred to as a first circuit board 121) has four circuit boards, the circuit board with the secondary coil (hereinafter referred to as a second circuit board 122) has one circuit board, the uppermost two layers are the first circuit boards 121, the middle layer is the second circuit board 122, the lowermost two layers are the first circuit boards 121, two first circuit boards 121 of the uppermost two layers are connected in series, and two first circuit boards 121 of the lowermost two layers are connected in series and then connected in parallel. Referring to fig. 19, in the present embodiment, Lp1, Lp2, Lp11, and Lp22 are each a set of primary coils, that is, the primary coils include four sets of primary coils, and each set of primary coils includes one or more layers of primary coils. In fig. 19, there are two primary coil circuit loops, Lp1 and Lp2 form a first primary coil circuit loop LpA, and Lp11 and Lp22 form a second primary coil circuit loop LpB. Lp1 is connected in series with Lp2, and Lp11 is connected in series with Lp22 and then connected in parallel. Alternatively, the two first circuit boards 121 at the uppermost layer may be connected in parallel, and the two first circuit boards 121 at the lowermost layer may be connected in parallel and then connected in series. In fig. 20, there are two primary coil circuit loops, Lp1 and Lp2 form a first primary coil circuit loop LpA, and Lp11 and Lp22 form a second primary coil circuit loop LpB. Lp1 is connected in parallel with Lp11, and Lp2 is connected in parallel with Lp22 and then connected in series. For example, FIGS. 19 and 20In the formula, Np1 is Np11, Np2 is Np22, LpA is Np1+ Np2 is 28Ts, and LpB is NpB is Np11+ Np22 is 28 Ts. Np1 is the number of Lp1 turns, Np2 is the number of Lp2 turns, Np11 is the number of Lp11 turns, Np22 is the number of Lp22 turns, NpA is the number of circuit loop LpA for the first primary coil, NpB is the number of circuit loop LpB for the second primary coil. The number of turns N of the coil is thus increased, without changing the coil width and the copper skin thickness, according to Pcu ═ I²R, by increasing the number of circuit boards and adopting the above-mentioned circuit connection relationship, the current flowing through each group of coils is only half of the previous one, and the resistance of each group of coils is less than twice of the previous one. Thus, the copper loss of each group of coils is only half of the previous copper loss (for example, the number of turns is twice as much as the previous one, but the length of each coil is smaller on average, so that the length is increased by less than one time, the current is smaller by half, and the copper loss is only half of the previous one), so that the heat dissipation of the coils is better, and the temperature is lower. In addition, because the loss of each group of coils is less than half of the loss of the coils before, the thickness of the copper foil can be reduced, the gaps between the corresponding coils can be smaller, meanwhile, the wiring width of the coils can also be reduced, and the leakage inductance can also be small. (LpA Circuit Loop: Vbuk->Lp1->Lp2->Q10->Current limiting resistor>Grounding; LpB circuit loop: from Vbuk->Lp11->Lp22->Q10->Current limiting resistor>And (4) grounding. )

Through the circuit loop that increases primary coil, increase to two circuit loops by a circuit loop, the heat dissipation on every group coil is better and the coil is walked the line width and also can be reduced, and the window area of transformer just can be littleer, and the volume of magnetic core just can be littleer (only increases the gross thickness of some PCB boards), and power adapter's volume is littleer.

Similarly, the secondary coil can also adopt a series-parallel connection method to increase a circuit loop of the secondary coil, thereby reducing copper loss, increasing heat dissipation and reducing the volume of the magnetic core. Referring to fig. 19, Ls1, Ls2, Ls11, and Ls22 in this embodiment are each a set of secondary coils, that is, the secondary coils include four sets of secondary coils, and each set of secondary coils includes one or more layers of secondary coils. In fig. 19, there are two secondary winding circuits, Ls1 and Ls2 constitute a first secondary winding circuit LsA, and Ls11 and Ls22 constitute a second secondary winding circuit LsB. Ls1 is connected in series with Ls2, Ls11 is connected in series with Ls22 and then connected in parallel. In fig. 20, there are two secondary winding circuits, Ls1 and Ls2 constitute the first secondary winding circuit LsA, and Ls11 and Ls22 constitute the second secondary winding circuit LsB. Ls1 is connected in parallel with Ls11, and Ls2 is connected in parallel with Ls22 and then connected in series. For example, in fig. 19 and 20, Ns1 ═ Ns11, Ns2 ═ Ns22, LsA: NsA ═ Ns1+ Ns2 ═ 4Ts, and LsB: NsB ═ Ns11+ Ns22 ═ 4 Ts. Ns1 is the number of turns Ls1, Ns2 is the number of turns Ls2, Ns11 is the number of turns Ls11, Ns22 is the number of turns Ls22, NsA is the number of turns LsA of the circuit loop of the first primary winding, NsB is the number of turns LpB of the second primary winding.

As shown in fig. 15 and 16, in one embodiment, the circuit board has six circuit boards, the six circuit boards are stacked up and down, the circuit board with the primary coil (hereinafter referred to as a first circuit board 121) has four circuit boards, the circuit board with the secondary coil (hereinafter referred to as a second circuit board 122) has two circuit boards, the uppermost two layers are the first circuit boards 121, the middle two layers are the second circuit boards 122, the lowermost two layers are the first circuit boards 121, and of the four first circuit boards 121, the two first circuit boards 121 at the uppermost layer are connected in series, and the two first circuit boards 121 at the lowermost layer are connected in series and then connected in parallel. Alternatively, the two first circuit boards 121 at the uppermost layer may be connected in parallel, and the two first circuit boards 121 at the lowermost layer may be connected in parallel and then connected in series. The number of turns N of the coil is thus increased, without changing the coil width and the copper skin thickness, according to Pcu ═ I²R, by increasing the number of circuit boards and adopting the above-mentioned circuit connection relationship, the current flowing through each group of coils is only half of the previous one, and the resistance of each group of coils is less than twice of the previous one. Thus, the copper loss of each group of coils is only half of the previous copper loss (for example, the number of turns is twice as much as the previous one, but the length of each coil is smaller on average, so that the length is increased by less than one time, the current is smaller by half, and the copper loss is only half of the previous one), so that the heat dissipation of each group of coils is better, and the temperature is lower.

As shown in fig. 17 and 18, in one embodiment, the circuit board has six circuit boards stacked one on another, the circuit board with the primary coil (hereinafter referred to as a first circuit board 121) has four circuit boards with the secondary coil (hereinafter referred to as a second circuit board 121), and the circuit boards are stacked one on anotherThe second circuit board 122) has two, the uppermost layer is the second circuit board 122, the middle four layers are the first circuit boards 121, the lowermost layer is the second circuit board 122, of the four layers of the first circuit boards 121, the two first circuit boards 121 of the upper two layers are connected in series, and the two first circuit boards 121 of the lower two layers are connected in parallel after being connected in series. Or the two first circuit boards 121 on the two layers can be connected in parallel, and the two first circuit boards 121 on the lower layer can be connected in series after being connected in parallel. The number of turns N of the coil is thus increased, without changing the coil width and the copper skin thickness, according to Pcu ═ I²R, by increasing the number of circuit boards and adopting the above-mentioned circuit connection relationship, the current flowing through each group of coils is only half of the previous one, and the resistance of each group of coils is less than twice of the previous one. Thus, the copper loss of each group of coils is only half of the previous copper loss (for example, the number of turns is twice as much as the previous one, but the length of each coil is smaller on average, so that the length is increased by less than one time, the current is smaller by half, and the copper loss is only half of the previous one), so that the heat dissipation of each group of coils is better, and the temperature is lower.

As shown in fig. 21 and 22, in the present planar transformer, since the number of turns of the secondary winding is small (1 to 2 turns), the lower end point E of the auxiliary winding Lpa of the primary circuit and the lower end point F of the secondary winding Ls have the same polarity. The power supply coil of the auxiliary power supply includes an auxiliary coil Lpa of the primary circuit and an auxiliary coil Lsa of the secondary circuit (refer to fig. 21 and 22), i.e., the circuit board with the primary coil has the auxiliary coil of the primary circuit, and the circuit board with the secondary coil has the auxiliary coil of the secondary circuit.

The following description will be given taking an auxiliary coil Lpa of the primary circuit as an example.

As shown in fig. 21 and 22, a hollow circle is located at the lower end point E of the auxiliary coil Lpa of the primary circuit, and a hollow circle is also located at the lower end point F of the secondary coil Ls, and the lower end point E of the auxiliary coil Lpa of the primary circuit and the lower end point F of the secondary coil Ls are known to have the same polarity through the hollow circles (end marks). For example, in fig. 21, the number of primary winding turns is 10-14, the number of secondary winding turns is 2, the number of auxiliary winding turns of the primary circuit is 2-4, two sets of windings are generally used for the auxiliary winding of the primary circuit, one set of windings is 2 (when the power output is 9V-24V), and the other set of windings is 4 (when the power output is 5V).

1. When the power adapter outputs 5V, the maximum voltage of the auxiliary coil of the primary circuit is as follows: if the number of turns of the auxiliary coil of the primary circuit is 2, the maximum power output is 5V. However, many power controllers require a minimum voltage of 8V, so the number of turns of the auxiliary winding of the primary circuit is 4.

2. When the power adapter outputs 9V-24V, the maximum voltage of the auxiliary coil of the primary circuit is as follows: if the number of turns of the auxiliary coil of the primary circuit is 2, the maximum power output is 9-24V.

When the number of turns Ns of the secondary coil is greater than or equal to 3 and Np/Ns is greater than or equal to 4 in the embodiment of the present invention, for example, as shown in fig. 22, the number of turns of the primary coil is 20 to 28, the number of turns of the secondary coil is 4, and the number of turns of the auxiliary coil of the primary circuit is 4 to 8, in order to reduce the power consumption problem of the power supply of the controller, two sets of coils are generally used for the auxiliary coil of the primary circuit, one set of coils has 4 turns (when the power supply outputs 9V to 24V), and the other set of coils has 8 turns (when the power supply outputs 5V).

1. When the power adapter outputs 5V, neglecting the conducting voltage of the secondary rectifier diode, the maximum voltage of the auxiliary coil of the primary circuit is as follows: if the number of turns of the auxiliary coil of the primary circuit is 4, the maximum power output is 5V. The power controller can not meet the requirement that the minimum voltage is 8V, so the number of turns of the auxiliary coil of the primary circuit must be 8 to meet the requirement.

2. When the power adapter outputs 9V-24V, the maximum voltage of the auxiliary coil of the primary circuit is as follows: the number of turns of an auxiliary coil of the primary circuit is 4, the conduction voltage of a secondary rectifier diode is neglected, and the maximum power output is 9-24V.

Under the condition that Np/Ns is more than or equal to 4, the number of turns Ns of the secondary coil is more than or equal to 3, and the current density J of the coil is more than or equal to 10A/mm²The lower end point E of the auxiliary coil of the primary circuit and the lower end point F of the secondary coil have the same polarity, the total number of turns of the auxiliary coil of the primary circuit is 12, and the total number of turns of the auxiliary coil of the primary circuit is too many, so that more window areas of the transformer can be occupied, and the effective window utilization coefficients of the primary coil and the secondary coil are reduced. Since the transformer energy is mainly transferred from the primary coil to the secondary coil, the main energy is also collectedAbove the primary winding and the secondary winding, if the auxiliary winding of the primary circuit occupies more window area of the transformer, the transformer has a complicated structure, increased cost and large leakage inductance. And the total number of turns of the auxiliary coil is too much, the loss is larger, and a larger window area of the transformer is needed, so that the size of the transformer is large.

Therefore, in the present invention, in order to reduce the window area of the transformer occupied by the auxiliary coil of the primary circuit, the effective window utilization factor of the primary coil and the secondary coil is increased. When Np/Ns is more than or equal to 4, the number of turns Ns of the secondary coil is more than or equal to 3, and the current density J of the coil is more than or equal to 10A/mm²The upper terminal B of the auxiliary winding Lpa of the primary circuit is set to have the same polarity as the upper terminal a of the primary winding Lp, and the voltage Vcc of the auxiliary winding of the primary circuit is independent of the secondary winding voltage Vo (i.e., independent of the output voltage 5-20V) and is proportional to the primary winding voltage Vbuk (i.e., proportional to the voltage 85Vac-265Vac at the power input). It can be seen from fig. 23 and 24 that there is a hollow circle at the upper end point B of the auxiliary coil of the primary circuit, a hollow circle at the upper end point a of the primary coil, and a hollow circle at the lower end point F of the secondary coil, and it can be known through the hollow circles (dotted end marks) that the end point B of the auxiliary coil Lpa of the primary circuit and the end point a of the primary coil Lp are of the same polarity, that is, the transformer coil end point a connected to Vbuk and the transformer coil end point B connected to the positive electrode of the rectifier diode connected to Vcc are of the same name ends.

For example, in fig. 23, when the number of secondary coil turns is not increased (i.e., the number of secondary coil turns is 1 to 2), if the number of primary coil turns is 11, the number of secondary coil turns is 2, and the number of auxiliary coil turns of the primary circuit is 1. Since the load current of the auxiliary power supply is extremely small, the maximum pulse voltage of the auxiliary coil is set as the maximum value of the auxiliary power supply.

1. When the input voltage is 85V:

the maximum value of the output voltage is 85 x 2^0.5 x Npaux/Np, 85 x 2^0.5 x 1/11 ^ 10.928V (Npaux is the number of turns of the auxiliary coil Lpa of the primary circuit, and Np is the number of turns of the primary coil Lp).

2. Input voltage 265V:

the maximum value of the output voltage 265 x 2 x 0.5 x Npaux/Np 265 x 2 x 0.5 x 1/11 x 34.07V.

No matter the input voltage is 85V or 265V, the requirement that the minimum voltage required by the power supply controller is 8V is met.

When the number of turns Ns ≧ 3 of the secondary coil and Np/Ns ≧ 4 in the embodiment of the present invention are used, for example, as shown in fig. 24, if the number of turns of the primary coil is 22, the number of turns of the secondary coil is 4, and the number of turns of the auxiliary coil of the primary circuit is 1-3, in order to reduce the power consumption problem of the power supply of the controller, two sets of coils are generally used for the auxiliary coil of the primary circuit, one set of turns is set to be 2 (e.g., 85-190V when the input voltage is low), and the other set of turns is set to be 1 (e.g., 190V when the input voltage is high).

1. When the input voltage is 85V:

the maximum value of the output voltage is 85 x 2^0.5 x Npaux/Np 85 x 2^0.5 x 2/22 ^ 10.928V.

2. When the input voltage is 265V:

the maximum value of the output voltage is 265 x 2^0.5 x Npaux/Np 265 x 2^0.5 x 1/22 ^ 17.035V.

No matter the input voltage is 85V or 265V, the requirement that the minimum voltage of the power supply controller is 8V can be met by setting the total number of turns of the auxiliary coil of the primary circuit to be 3, and the total number of turns of the auxiliary coil is greatly reduced. Therefore, when the turns Ns of the secondary coil are more than or equal to 3, and Np/Ns is more than or equal to 4, the voltage of the auxiliary coil of the primary circuit is set to be in direct proportion to the voltage of the primary coil (namely, the voltage is in direct proportion to 85Vac-265Vac of the power input), the window area of the transformer occupied by the auxiliary coil of the primary circuit is reduced, the effective window utilization coefficient of the primary coil and the secondary coil is increased, the transformer is simple in structure, the cost is reduced, and the leakage inductance is small.

Similarly, if the number of turns of the primary coil is 12 and the number of turns of the secondary coil is 2 when the number of turns of the secondary coil is not increased (i.e., the number of turns of the secondary coil is 1 to 2), the number of turns of the auxiliary coil of the primary circuit is set to 1.

1. When the input voltage is 85V:

the maximum value of the output voltage is 85 x 2^0.5 x Npaux/Np 85 x 2^0.5 x 1/12 ═ 10.015V (Npaux is the number of auxiliary coil turns, Np is the number of primary coil turns).

2. Input voltage 265V:

the maximum value of the output voltage 265 x 2 x 0.5 x Npaux/Np 265 x 2 x 0.5 x 1/12V 31.22V.

When the number of turns Ns of the secondary coil is not less than 3 and Np/Ns is not less than 4 in the embodiment of the present invention, if the number of turns of the primary coil is 18, the number of turns of the secondary coil is 3, and the number of turns of the auxiliary coil of the primary circuit is 1-3, in order to reduce the power consumption problem of the power supply of the controller, two sets of coils are generally used for the auxiliary coil of the primary circuit, one set of turns is set to be 2 (e.g. 85-190V when the input voltage is low), and the other set of turns is set to be 1 (e.g. 190-265V when the input voltage is high).

1. When the input voltage is 85V:

the maximum value of the output voltage is 85 x 2^0.5 x Npaux/Np 85 x 2^0.5 x 2/18 ^ 13.354V.

2. When the input voltage is 265V:

the maximum value of the output voltage is 265 x 2^0.5 x Npaux/Np 265 x 2^0.5 x 1/18 ^ 20.817V.

No matter the input voltage is 85V or 265V, the requirement that the minimum voltage of the power supply controller is 8V can be met by setting the total number of turns of the auxiliary coil to be 3, and the total number of turns of the auxiliary coil is greatly reduced. Therefore, when Np/Ns is more than or equal to 4, the number of turns Ns of the secondary coil is more than or equal to 3, and the current density J of the coil is more than or equal to 10A/mm²The voltage of the auxiliary coil of the primary circuit is set to be in direct proportion to the voltage of the primary coil (namely, the voltage is in direct proportion to 85Vac-265Vac of the power input), so that the window area of the transformer occupied by the auxiliary coil is reduced, the window area of the transformer occupied by the primary coil and the secondary coil is increased, the transformer is simple in structure, the cost is reduced, and the leakage inductance is small.

Similarly, the number of secondary winding turns may be 5.

Of course, the voltage of the auxiliary winding Lsa of the secondary circuit may be set to be proportional to the voltage of the primary winding Lp (i.e., proportional to the voltage 85Vac-265Vac of the power input, as shown in fig. 23 and 24, the upper end C of the auxiliary winding Lsa of the secondary circuit has a hollow circle, and the upper end a of the primary winding Lp also has a hollow circle, and it can be known that the end C of the auxiliary winding of the secondary circuit and the end a of the primary winding have the same polarity through the hollow circles). The voltage Vcc of the auxiliary coil of the primary circuit can be set to be in direct proportion to the voltage Vbuk of the primary coil (namely, in direct proportion to the voltage 85Vac-265Vac of the power input); or the voltage VOSUB of the secondary winding of the secondary circuit is proportional to the voltage Vbuk of the primary winding (i.e., proportional to the voltage 85Vac-265Vac of the power input); or the voltage of the auxiliary winding of the primary circuit is proportional to the voltage of the primary winding (i.e. proportional to the voltage 85Vac-265Vac of the power input), while the voltage of the auxiliary winding of the secondary circuit is proportional to the voltage of the primary winding (i.e. proportional to the voltage 85Vac-265Vac of the power input).

In the present embodiment, the circuit board with a primary coil (hereinafter referred to as a first circuit board) includes the primary coil and an auxiliary coil of the primary circuit, and may further include a shield coil and a compensation coil; the circuit board with the secondary coil (hereinafter referred to as a second circuit board) includes the secondary coil and the auxiliary coil of the secondary circuit, and may further include a shield coil and a compensation coil, i.e., the primary coil and the auxiliary coil of the primary circuit are disposed on the same circuit board, and the secondary coil and the auxiliary coil of the secondary circuit are disposed on the same circuit board.

As shown in FIG. 25, in another embodiment, the primary coil and the secondary coil are located on a circuit board, when Np/Ns is greater than or equal to 4, the number of turns Ns of the secondary coil is greater than or equal to 3, and the current density J of the coil is greater than or equal to 10A/mm²When the number of turns NS of the secondary winding increases, the number of turns NP of the primary winding also increases, and thus the number of turns N of the planar transformer increases. Under the unchangeable circumstances of power adapter power, because the increase of coil turn number N, the effective area A of magnetic core can reduce, and the through-hole area and the circuit board area of circuit board can reduce, and then circuit board and magnetic core volume reduce, because circuit board and magnetic core volume reduce make planar transformer volume reduce, and then reduced power adapter's volume. In this embodiment, a buffer heat sink is disposed between the upper surface of the circuit board and the first portion of the magnetic coreA buffer cooling fin is arranged between the lower surface of the circuit board and the second part of the magnetic core.
