Abstract

This paper proposes an improved common mode (CM) electromagnetic interference (EMI) suppression method in switching power supplies. The lossless snubber circuit can reduce d u /d t and EMI in the high-frequency band. Nevertheless, it has a weak EMI suppression effect on the low-frequency band. A method combining the chaotic spread spectrum and the lossless snubber (CSS–LS) is proposed to improve the EMI suppression effect of the lossless snubber. It is an effective means to suppress CM EMI further. The paper used a Boost PFC converter as the object of analysis to study the CM EMI suppression effect of CSS–LS. Firstly, a CM EMI-equivalent model of the lossless snubber PFC converter was established. Then, the power spectral density function under chaotic spread-spectrum modulation was derived. The simulation analysis was performed. Finally, an experimental prototype was built, and relevant EMI tests were carried out. The experimental results show that CSS–LS can reduce CM EMI by 4~20 dBµV with little impact on converter stability. Fewer extra costs are needed for this optimization method, which is suitable for high-power-density power electronic devices.
