High powerModule switching power supplyThe losses are mainly high-frequency switching losses, high-frequency transformer losses, rectifier losses and line conduction losses. In the application of low voltage and high current output, the rectification loss and line conduction loss occupy a larger proportion. The lower the output voltage, the greater the output current, the rectificationLossThe greater the proportion of line conduction loss in the total loss of the module switching power supply.
Loss of Rectifier Diode and Synchronous Rectification
In the traditional rectifier using diode rectification, and in the low voltage output conditions generally use Schottky diode rectification, Schottky diode and other rectifier diodes compared with the switching speed, the advantages of forward voltage reduction, but the Schottky diode forward voltage drop and the size of the rectifier output current, the larger the rectifier output current forward voltage drop, may be as high as 0.5~0.6V or more, and the reverse leakage current of the Schottky diode is large.
The synchronous rectification technology uses a field effect transistor (MOSFET) with low on-resistance and low withstand voltage to replace the ordinary rectifier diode. Because the synchronous rectification MOSFET has the characteristics of low on-resistance (usually only a few mΩ), low leakage current when blocking, and high switching frequency, it can greatly reduce the power consumption of the power rectifier part and make the power system work efficiency Significantly improved, but in specific applications, the realization of synchronous rectification is more complicated than diode rectification. In the low voltage and high current output applications of switching power supply, synchronous rectification technology has a good application prospect.
Loss of magnetic components
Transformer loss is also an important part of the module switching power supply loss, transformer loss is mainly iron loss and copper loss. Iron loss refers to the high-frequency loss caused by the material, shape, process structure and other relevant factors of the transformer. Copper loss refers to the conduction loss caused by the winding circuit of the transformer. In order to reduce the iron loss of the transformer, the core material with good high frequency characteristics, low high frequency loss, reasonable shape and compact structure of the core should be selected.
At the same time, in order to reduce the volume of the module switching power supply, we should try our best to improve the switching frequency of the module switching power supply. If we want to increase to about 500kHz or higher, the loss of ordinary magnetic core materials is very large, and the magnetic core is easy to overheat and magnetic saturation, so that it can not work normally. Therefore, high-frequency magnetic core materials with excellent magnetic properties must be selected in the module switching power supply.
The size of magnetic components is closely related to the switching frequency. Within the allowable operating frequency range of magnetic components, the size of magnetic components is inversely proportional to the switching frequency. In order to reduce the volume of magnetic components such as high-frequency switching transformers and inductors of the module switching power supply, the switching frequency needs to be improved.
At the same time, the module switching power supply of high frequency switching transformer winding design is also very important, high frequency switching transformer winding not only have an impact on the copper loss, but also related to the coupling between the high frequency switching transformer windings, the iron loss of high frequency switching transformer also have an impact, the design and production of high frequency switching transformer module switching power supply performance has a great influence.

Product selection and application considerations
The design power of each product of our company will have a certain amount of redundant power, which can run for a long time under full load or even over the rated load. However, for the sake of high reliability and prolonging the service life of the power supply, please do not let the load reach the rated value. It is generally recommended to use 60%-80% of the rated load, and the ambient temperature is recommended to be about 30 ℃, which can be fully loaded at an ambient temperature of 55 ℃, but this will undoubtedly greatly reduce the reliability and service life of the product. In actual use, please pay attention to the two factors of controlling load and temperature. If the ambient temperature is relatively high, it is necessary to reduce the load as much as possible (that is, to increase the load margin and select products with greater output power). On the contrary, if a large load current is required, then try to do a good job of ventilation and heat dissipation, such as placing the power supply module in an open space and increasing cooling fans. The specific value is not absolutely fixed. Generally, it is recommended that the load should not exceed 20% of the rated load when the ambient temperature is 55 ℃, which can keep the product very high reliability. Tip: Please use temperature measuring equipment to evaluate the temperature, and do not rely on skin feeling. Short time and a small proportion of full load, high temperature operation, the reliability and life has little effect. For example: each full load lasts less than 1 minute or half a minute, and the interval is more than 10 minutes, while the load during the interval is less than 15% of the rated load, then even if the operation at 55 ℃ is also possible. Safe Use Warning: Since the bare board series does not have a shell, the input is 220V AC at the same time. The input pins and corresponding terminals of the module are directly connected to 220V. Please pay great attention to prevent short circuit between electric shock and metal objects and ensure that the power supply is disconnected before any touch. Load Requirements for 2. Use of Multiple Output Power Supplies Generally, the voltage accuracy of the output of the multi-output power supply is: the nominal value of the main output is plus or minus 1%, and the nominal value of the secondary output is plus or minus 5%-10%. The first output of the multi-output power supply is the main circuit, and the other output is the secondary circuit. The voltage accuracy and carrying capacity of the main circuit are higher than those of the secondary circuit. Therefore, the main circuit with large current and high voltage accuracy requirements should be generally selected, it is appropriate that the ratio of each current is 50-100%, and the secondary circuit must not be loaded separately under the condition of no load on the main circuit, otherwise the secondary circuit voltage is too low to be used normally. In addition, if the main circuit load is full load and the secondary circuit load is light load, the secondary circuit voltage may increase, otherwise the secondary circuit voltage will decrease, and the reliability and service life will have little effect. For example, if each full load lasts less than 1 minute or half a minute, and the interval is more than 10 minutes, while the load during the interval is less than 15% of the rated load, then even operation at 55°C is possible.

Can switching power supply and module power supply be universal?
A module power supply is a power supply that can be mounted directly on a printed circuit board and is characterized by providing power to application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs), digital signal processors (DSPs), microprocessors, memory, field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), and other digital or analog loads. In general, such modules are called point-of-load (POL) power supply systems or point-of-use power supply systems (PUPS).
