Calculation and Application of Equivalent Impedance of Resistance, Inductance and Capacitance

1, the resistance

Resistance equivalent circuit

Figure 1 resistance equivalent circuit

Equivalent impedance of the resistor

The resistance values ​​measured by the same resistive element when passing through DC and AC are different. In the high-frequency AC, the influence of the lead inductance L0 and the distributed capacitance C0 of the resistive element must be considered. The equivalent circuit is shown in Fig. 1, where R is the ideal resistance. The figure shows that the equivalent impedance of this component at frequency f is

In the above formula, ω=2πf, Re and Xe are equivalent resistance components and reactance components, respectively, and

Equation 2

It can be seen from the above equation that Re is related to L0 and C0 in addition to f. This indicates that when L0 and C0 are not negligible, the resistance value of the resistance element is measured under AC, and the result will be Re instead of R value.

2, inductance

Inductance equivalent circuit

Figure 2 Inductance equivalent circuit

Equivalent impedance of the inductor

In addition to the inductance L, the inductive component always has a loss resistor RL and a distributed capacitor CL. In general, the effects of RL and CL are small. When the inductive component is connected to DC and reaches steady state, it can be regarded as a resistor. If it is connected to a low-frequency AC circuit, it can be regarded as a series connection of the ideal inductor L and the loss resistor RL. The equivalent circuit is shown in Figure 2 at high frequency. Comparing Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, it can be seen that the two are actually the same, and the high frequency equivalent impedance of the inductance component can be determined by referring to Equation 1.

Equation 3

Where Re and Le are the equivalent resistance and equivalent inductance of the inductive component, respectively.

It is known from the above formula that when CL is too small or RL, CL and ω are not large, Le will be equal to L or close to equal to L.

3, the capacitor

Capacitance equivalent circuit

Figure 3 capacitor equivalent circuit

Equivalent impedance of capacitor

The capacitor component always has a certain dielectric loss under AC, and its lead also has a certain resistance Rn and a distributed inductance Ln. Therefore, the equivalent circuit of the capacitor component is as shown in FIG. In the figure, C is the inherent capacitance of the component, and Rc is the equivalent resistance of the dielectric loss. Equivalent impedance is

Equation 4

Where Re and Ce are the equivalent resistance and equivalent capacitance of the capacitive element, respectively, since the general dielectric loss is negligible (ie Rc → ∞), Ce can be expressed as

Equation 5

It can be seen from the above discussion that R, L, and C are measured under AC, and the actual measured values ​​are the equivalent values ​​Re, Le, and Ce; since the actual impedance of the resistor, capacitor, and inductor varies with the environment and the operating frequency. Therefore, in the impedance measurement, it should be carried out according to the actual working conditions (especially the working frequency). Otherwise, the measured result will have a large error or even a wrong result.

-- The on-resistance of the device has a positive temperature coefficient, so it is easy to expand in parallel in principle, but in actual parallel, the symmetry of the drive and the dynamic current sharing problem should be considered.

-- The current Logic-Level power MOSFET, with a Vgs of 5V, ensures that the on-state resistance of the drain source is small;

-- The device's synchronous rectification operation has become more and more extensive because its on-state resistance is very small (currently the smallest is 2-4 milliohms), and it is the most DC/DC in low-voltage high-current output. Key device
