Abstract

A switch-mode self-coupling power device additionally increases a set of high voltage auxiliary winding in the transformer and increases a control circuit and an energy transmitting circuit in the primary side circuit of the conventional circuit. When the load is too low, the control circuit may control the energy transmitting circuit according to the variation of the load so that the voltage of the high voltage auxiliary winding can be transmitted to a controller for operation through the energy transmitting circuit. Therefore, the design of PWM controller (pulse width modulation controller) auxiliary power circuit according to the present invention, which is not limited by the magnitude of a dummy load at the secondary side of the transformer, can conform to international regulations and is a product with industrial purpose and conforming to green mode.

Claims (9)

1. A switch-mode self-coupling auxiliary power device in a power supplier for charging a maintaining capacitor, providing a power to a controller, comprising:

a transformer having a main winding and a sub-winding for dividing said power supplier into a primary side circuit and a secondary side circuit, an first auxiliary winding connected to said maintaining capacitor, and a high voltage second auxiliary winding;

a control circuit, wherein the control circuit obtains a load signal for outputting a control signal; and

an energy transmitting circuit connected to said control circuit, said maintaining capacitor and said high voltage auxiliary second winding, controlled by said control signal to switch a voltage on said high second voltage auxiliary winding for charging said maintaining capacitor;

wherein when said load signal represents a high or normal load condition, a voltage on said first auxiliary winding charges the maintaining capacitor, and when said load signal represents a low load condition, the voltage on said high voltage second auxiliary winding charges said maintaining capacitor.

2. The device according to claim 1 , wherein said control circuit is connected to a PFC (Power Factor Correction) ON or OFF state through a detection capacitor, said PFC being used to output said load signal according to a magnitude of the circuit load.

3. The device according to claim 1 , wherein said control circuit is connected to a comparator of said secondary side circuit through an optocoupler, the comparator being used to extract a load current of said secondary side circuit for outputting said load signal according to a magnitude of said load current.

4. The device according to claim 1 , wherein said control circuit is composed of a Zener diode, a resistor, and a first switch element.

5. The device according to claim 1 , wherein said energy transmitting circuit is composed of a diode, a second switch element and at least a resistor.
