Hi MicrosiM
I believe that changing the duty cycle will change the output voltage as well, under heavy loads, the voltage Vo tends to go down, the output current Io will go down also => power Po goes down!
the feedback circuit acts at this moment, it measures Vo against some V ref and via an opto coupler it sends this information the PWM circuit to adjust duty cycle accordingly.
After AC line is rectifyed and filtred, we get a DC voltage to feed the trafo via chopping circuit (half / full bridge; push-pull or whatever used topology), the longer the switches are closed, more energy is stored in the trafo coil, the higher the Vo will be and vice versa.
The trick is to determine 3 duty cycle values: 1) when VDC chopper is at minimum Duty Cyle is at maximum, 2) VDC nominal Duty Cycle Nominal and VDC chopper maximum Duty Cycle minimum; we have to permanently monitor the VDC chopper with an error amplifier , this can be done either by putting a sence resistor in series with primary trafo winding or by monitoring Vo; Vo and VDC chopper are related to each other by the Duty Cycle, trafo winding ratio, the losses in the trafo and the chpper.
For my projet, I have bought IR2153, SG3525, IR2110, resistors, capacitors, optocoupler, TL431, 0.1 and 0.6 wire and many more; I want to design a fixed output volatge PSU, 70V up to 30Amps ander any load with short cecuit, over load (which is similar to short cercuit) pertection, under volatge protection and low EMI
for this any suggestions or advices are welcome (spetial thanks to you and Dimonis).
