傳統多相交錯式降壓穩壓器均係透過提高開關切換頻率,來改善系統暫態響應以及縮小LC濾波器。但於高頻切換操作時,因切換損耗所造成的輕載轉換效率大多不盡理想,使得伺服器整體運作時能源轉換效率無法獲得提升。本論文首先透過實作驗證兩級降壓架構之可行性,前後級皆為多相交錯式降壓模組所組成。前級操作於相對低切換頻率,並將輸入電壓降壓至一半提供給後級輸入,而後級操作於高切換頻率以提高系統頻寬,結果證實相較於傳統單級降壓架構其輕載效率大幅改善,且重載效率略為提升。另一方面,為了同時保有兩級降壓架構的優點以及更進一步節省成本以及體積,本文透過實作分壓器以取代前級多相式降壓模組,經實驗證明其最高轉換效率可達近97%。
In the conventional multi-phase interleaved step-down voltage-regulator, the switching frequency is usually raised to improve system transient response and reduce LC filter size. However, the conversion efficiency is poor at light load under high switching frequency. It deteriorates the overall efficiency performance during whole server operation period. Firstly, the feasibility of a two-stage system was verified. The system consists of two multi-phase interleaved step-down modules. The pre-stage circuit is operated at relatively low switching frequency and reduces the input voltage of the post-stage by half. The post-stage is operated at higher switching frequency to increase the system bandwidth. The two-stage system can improve the light-load efficiency significantly and heavy-load efficiency slightly. On the other hand, in order to keep two-stage system’s advantage and further save the cost and reduce total size, a voltage divider has been implemented as the pre-stage module. According to the experimental verifications, a 97% conversion efficiency can be achieved.
