Abstract:
With advances in science and technology,power density has become a critical key benchmark for power adapters with power delivery(PD) protocols. Among traditional PD power adapters,input electrolytic capacitors occupy a significant proportion of total volume,limiting further improvements in power density. To address this issue,a novel PD power adapter circuit without input electrolytic capacitors is proposed. This innovative design replaces the bulky input electrolytic capacitors found in traditional flyback converters by incorporating an energy compensation module. This energy compensation module is composed of an energy storage circuit and a Buck circuit, balancing the pulsating power between input and output. Furthermore,the solution effectively suppresses output voltage ripple. This article provides a detailed analysis of the proposed circuit topology and its working principle. A feed-forward-based single-cycle control mechanism tailored to this topology is introduced,supported by a comprehensive control strategy that integrates power balance control and output constant-voltage control. Key parameters for the circuit are designed. Finally,a 40 W PD power adapter experimental platform was built to validate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme. The experimental results indicate that the circuit scheme reduces the output voltage ripple to below 2% and eliminates the input electrolytic capacitors,effectively enhancing the power density. © 2025, Tianjin University.
