Title:
An electric power unit and an impedance matching method
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP6244014
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
This power supply device for outputting high-frequency power to an external load is configured so as to be provided with: a matching unit having a variable matching element for changing the output impedance of the power supply device; a detector for detecting the size of reflection waves included in the high-frequency power, or the output current value outputted to the load or the input impedance of the matching unit; a storage unit for storing a matching map including a plurality of first and second parameter values for changing the size of the reflection waves, or the input impedance or the output current value, the matching map having a plurality of setting points determined by a combination of the first and second parameter values; and a control unit for performing a matching process in which the output impedance of the power supply device is changed by changing the first and second parameter values so that a shift is made from one of the setting points to a matching point at which the size of the reflection waves, or the input impedance or the output current value is equal to or less than a first value, and performing control so that adjacent setting points are passed through when the matching process is performed.
