Based on the foregoing embodiments, the present application provides a temperature control circuit, and the structure of the temperature control circuit can refer to fig. 2. In the temperature control circuit provided in the embodiment of the present application, the mode of controlling the working process of the TEC includes two modes, one is a software control mode and the other is a hardware control mode, that is, the function of the PID compensation amplifying circuit may be implemented by software or hardware. Wherein:
in the software control mode, the MCU is the control body, and the driving current of the TEC can be supplied through the buck switching power supply and the linear power supply. When the MCU controls the buck switching power supply and the linear power supply, the MCU provides Digital-Analog (DA) quantity to automatically adjust the output voltage of the switching power supply, and the MCU controls the output voltage of the linear power supply, so that the switching between the heating mode and the cooling mode of the TEC is controlled through the linear power supply. As shown in fig. 2, the linear power supply is connected to the negative electrode of the TEC, and correspondingly, when the TEC is controlled to be in the heating mode, the VCC rail of the linear power supply is controlled, that is, the forward power supply voltage is provided, and when the TEC is in the heating mode, the GND rail of the linear power supply is controlled, that is, the ground of the linear power supply is controlled.
In order to ensure the stability of the working current passing through the TEC in the zero point switching process, i.e., the switching process between the two heating modes, the output voltage of the linear power supply and the output voltage of the switching power supply need to be the same in the zero point switching process. The temperature error feedback circuit collects the current temperature of the TEC through a thermistor arranged near the TEC, performs error amplification, obtains a Digital temperature value through Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) conversion and feeds the Digital temperature value back to the MCU, the MCU executes a software PID compensation algorithm based on the Digital temperature value and a preset temperature value, and outputs a control quantity obtained through Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) to control the switching power supply and the linear power supply so as to complete automatic locking of the TEC temperature. Meanwhile, the MCU monitors the voltage value of the positive end and the negative end of the TEC acquired by the voltage and current monitoring limiting circuit and the voltage value of the high-precision sampling resistor with the sampling value of 0.1 ohm (omega), monitors the voltage and the current of the TEC in real time, and limits the voltage and the current of the TEC according to the voltage and the current.
When the voltage and current monitoring and limiting circuit collects the working voltage of the TEC, the voltages at the positive end and the negative end of the TEC are collected respectively, the working voltage of the TEC can be obtained through differential conversion of the operational amplifier, or the voltages at the positive end and the negative end of the TEC are subjected to differential processing directly through the MCU, so that the current working voltage of the TEC is obtained.
In a hardware control mode, the main part is the same as a software control mode, but the PID compensation amplifying circuit is composed of an operational amplifier and a pure resistor-capacitor element, and a preset temperature value is provided by an external DAC or an adjustable resistor. The voltage of the switching power supply and the linear power supply is controlled by the hardware PID output quantity.
In the embodiment of the application, both the switch power supply and the linear power supply can work between VCC and GND, and can work in a Sink mode and a Source mode at the same time;
the voltage output of the switching power supply and the linear power supply can be controlled by a DAC of the MCU, namely PID compensation or hardware PID compensation output control is realized by MCU software, and the two are compatible. The relationship between the output voltage of the switching power supply and the linear power supply and the PID compensation output is shown in FIG. 3, the ordinate is the voltage output, and the abscissa is the working state of the TEC. Wherein, A is PID compensation output corresponding to the linear power supply, B is PID compensation corresponding to the switching power supply, C is total PID compensation output obtained according to the linear power supply and the switching power supply, and the working state of the TEC represented by the abscissa comprises a heating mode a1, a zero switching mode a2 and a cooling mode a 3.
The hardware circuit structures of the temperature error feedback circuit and the PID compensation amplifying circuit may be specifically shown in fig. 4, where D is the temperature error feedback circuit portion, and E is the PID compensation amplifying circuit portion. In the temperature error feedback circuit D, VREF is used to represent a reference voltage, which is an empirical value set according to actual conditions, R is a voltage dividing resistor, RTH is used to represent a thermistor, and D1 is an error amplifier; in the PID compensation amplifying circuit E, Z1 and Z2 are two resistors, E1 is a differential amplifier, and E2 is a PID compensation output. Wherein:
(1) the thermistor RTH and the divider resistor R are used for dividing the reference voltage VREF, and the resistance value of the thermistor RTH changes along with the change of temperature, so that a temperature sampling value obtained by sampling of the thermistor and the temperature of the TEC have a one-to-one correspondence relationship. (2) After the voltage of the thermistor RTH and VREF/2 enter the error amplifier D1, the error amplifier D1 outputs a temperature error value to the PID compensation amplifying circuit for operation. (3) The temperature error of the thermistor and the preset temperature value set by the MCU are compared by the error amplifier D1 and then are calculated by the PID compensation amplifying circuit to obtain the PID compensation output E2, so that the PID compensation output E2 is used for controlling the DA output of the MCU to realize the control of the voltage output quantity of the switching power supply and the linear power supply, and the automatic control of the TEC temperature is realized.
It should be noted that, the PID compensation amplifying circuit E can be realized by hardware after the PID compensation amplifying circuit is realized, and the MCU can execute a software PID algorithm to ensure fast and stable control of the PID compensation output parameter.
The voltage and current monitoring and limiting circuit comprises the following steps:
1) the voltage difference of the positive end and the negative end of the TEC is collected, converted by the operational amplifier and sent to the MCU, so that the working voltage value of the TEC is monitored in real time; the TEC current is acquired through a 0.1 omega high-precision sampling resistor and is transmitted to the MCU after being converted by the operational amplifier, so that the TEC working current value is monitored in real time.
2) The TEC voltage current limitation may be implemented by software, that is, the MCU compares the collected TEC working voltage value with a preset voltage value, and/or compares the collected TEC working current value with a preset current value, so as to obtain a comparison result. Or, the method can also be implemented by hardware, that is, the collected TEC working voltage value is compared with a preset voltage value by a comparator, and the collected TEC working current value is compared with a preset current value by the comparator to obtain a comparison result. And then controlling a control source of a TEC driving power supply (a switching power supply and a linear power supply), namely a PID compensation amplifying circuit, according to a comparison result obtained by software implementation or a comparison result obtained by hardware implementation.
The control of the heating mode and the cooling mode of the TEC can be implemented by two comparators, as shown in fig. 5, when the comparators G1 and G2 determine that the monitored value (including the operating voltage value and/or the operating current value of the TEC) of the voltage and current monitoring limiting circuit is between the cooling threshold value and the heating threshold value, two subtracters H1 and H2 are turned off, and the PID compensation amplifying circuit I is enabled to control the TEC driving power supply J, which includes a switching power supply and a linear power supply, and the circuit normally operates in the TEC locking mode; when the comparators G1 and G2 determine that the monitoring value of the voltage and current monitoring limiting circuit is larger than the refrigeration threshold value, the refrigeration output turns off the PID compensation amplifying circuit I, the refrigeration subtracter H1 is enabled to output the difference between the monitoring value and the threshold value to the output end of the PID compensation amplifying circuit to control the TEC driving power supply J, and the larger the difference is, the smaller the output of the TEC driving power supply J is, so that the voltage and the current of the TEC are limited; when the comparators G1 and G2 determine that the monitoring value of the voltage and current monitoring limiting circuit is smaller than the heating threshold value, the PID compensation amplifying circuit I is also turned off, the heating subtracter H2 is turned on, the difference between the monitoring value and the threshold value is output to the output end of the PID compensation amplifying circuit to control the TEC driving power supply J, the larger the difference is, the smaller the TEC driving power supply J is, and the TEC current direction is reversed at the moment.
