Current Controller

Hi,

 

 

My customer start a new project with high quantities around 100000 power supplies (40,000000$)

This  customer need power supply with DC input 200 to 350Vdc

and output of 50V 500W .

The load is  step load of 20A max. up to  40% duty cycle (maximum step load duration)  at variable frequency from  20Hz  to 20kHZ

The request is that the current in the input will remain constant, 3% max. ripple.

Attached plot of input current vs output step load current

The solution is using 2  stage first boost and second half bridge while the boost will

charge capacitor at variable current according the average output current .

We use 680uF/500V capacitor and we charge the cup. up to  380Vdc.

We need that the boost controller will receive feedback from the output that will be part of the loop.

 

Can you recommend a controller or any idea for boost that can provide average current or any other solution.

The output current change from one frequency to another within 100uSec and the load duration  can be change from 1% to 40%max.

Thanks,
Shlomi
