應用於高速匯流排裝置之功率輸出級控制系統之裝置與方法Apparatus and method for power output stage control system applied to high speed busbar device

本發明係關於一功率輸出級系統處理平台,尤其關於一種應用於高速匯流排裝置之功率輸出級控制系統之裝置與方法。The present invention relates to a power output stage system processing platform, and more particularly to an apparatus and method for a power output stage control system for a high speed busbar arrangement.

電子產品發展日新月異,社會大眾對於電子產品的需求量及品質的要求,皆不容小覷。舉例手機來說,現下人們對於手機需求多且要求高,例如畫面漂亮以及處理速度快等等,且汰換速度之快,使得業者必須不斷地提高產能。The development of electronic products is changing with each passing day. The demand and quality requirements of electronic products for the public should not be underestimated. For example, mobile phones, people now have more demand and demand for mobile phones, such as beautiful pictures and fast processing speeds, and the speed of replacement is so fast that the industry must continuously increase production capacity.

為了提升產能,電子產品在成品之前,皆必須經歷之樣品設計階段顯得格外重要。樣品設計過程必須通過種種測試,才得以確保此樣品設計之完整性,並且得依照此樣品設計來生產製造成品,而必須通過之測試例如電性測試,所謂電性功能測試乃針對產品的各種電性參數進行測試,以確定產品能正常運作,其中電性參數包括電壓及電流等;電磁干擾測試,所謂電磁干擾是指任何在傳導或電磁場伴隨著電壓、電流的作用而產生會降低某個裝置、設備或系統的性能,或可能對生物或物質產生不良影響之電磁現象;以及可靠度測試,所謂可靠度是指特定產品在給定之操作環境及條件下,能成功的發揮其應有功能至一給定時間之機率。In order to increase production capacity, the sample design stage that electronic products must undergo before the finished product is particularly important. The sample design process must pass various tests to ensure the integrity of the sample design, and the finished product must be manufactured according to the sample design, and must pass the test, such as electrical test. The so-called electrical function test is for the various products of the product. The parameters are tested to determine that the product can operate normally. The electrical parameters include voltage and current. The electromagnetic interference test refers to any device that causes a decrease in the conduction or electromagnetic field accompanied by the action of voltage and current. , the performance of equipment or systems, or electromagnetic phenomena that may adversely affect biological or material; and reliability testing, which refers to the ability of a particular product to successfully perform its intended function under a given operating environment and conditions. The probability of a given time.

上述這些測試中,最普遍且必須的測試就是電性測試中針對 電壓所做的測試,於此一測試中,是利用不同之電源供應器供應樣品設計之電壓,並紀錄及分析此樣品設計是否正常運作。然而在樣品設計階段,無法針對所有電源供應器做確認,不同的電源供應器會有不同的電源開啟時序,故可能會有不相容的情況產生,例如無法開啟、開啟時無法使用、燒毀…等等。若要針對市面上電源供應器做確認,則需要花費大筆研發費用及時間,如此並無法讓製造成本與產品價值之間取得協調。Among the above tests, the most common and necessary test is the one for electrical testing. The test of voltage, in this test, is to use different power supply to supply the voltage of the sample design, and record and analyze whether the sample design is working properly. However, during the sample design phase, it is not possible to confirm all power supplies. Different power supplies have different power-on timings, so there may be incompatibilities, such as failure to turn on, turn-off, use, burnout... and many more. To confirm the power supply on the market, it takes a lot of research and development costs and time, so it is impossible to coordinate the manufacturing cost with the product value.

因此,為了幫助縮短產品上市時間,需要一可產生不同形式電壓之裝置,意即利用此裝置,即可模擬不同之市售電源供應器所產生之不同形式電壓,例如不同之電源供應器會產生不同之電源開啟時序及電壓準位等情況;亦可利用此一裝置,於樣品設計的同時,依照需求,建立特定之電壓形式,例如異常瞬升、瞬降、抖動等現象、輸出斜率或弦波波型電壓…等;以及模擬特殊情況,例如電源供應器無法開啟或是突然斷電再重新開啟…等。Therefore, in order to help shorten the time to market, a device that can generate different voltages is needed, which means that different voltages generated by different commercially available power supplies can be simulated by using this device, for example, different power supplies will be generated. Different power-on timings and voltage levels; this device can also be used to establish specific voltage forms, such as abnormal transients, transients, jitter, etc., output slope or chords, depending on the requirements of the sample design. Wave-wave type, etc.; and simulate special conditions, such as the power supply can not be turned on or suddenly turned off and then turned back on...etc.

市面上現有可產生不同形式電壓之裝置,稱為可程式電源供應器,由於其功能皆較為繁多,因此所需之記憶體也隨之增加;又許多可程式電源供應器除設計於供應電子設計樣品使用之外,亦可用於醫療設計樣品及軍事設計樣品,因此價錢不免貴上許多。There are devices in the market that can generate different voltages, called programmable power supplies. Because of their wide range of functions, the required memory is also increased. Many programmable power supplies are designed for electronic design. In addition to the use of samples, it can also be used for medical design samples and military design samples, so the price is not expensive.

於此實施例中,主機100可例如為個人型電腦,或者工、商用型伺服器等,且主機內至少包含一處理器。而輸入輸出裝置可為USB Port(通用串行總線連接埠)、COM Port(串列埠)、Network(網路)或者I2C(內部整合電路)等裝置。主機與輸入輸出裝置105相連接,以利主機所發出之指 令之傳輸。In this embodiment, the host 100 can be, for example, a personal computer, or a commercial or commercial server, and the host includes at least one processor. The input/output device can be a USB Port (Universal Serial Bus Port), a COM Port (Chain), a Network, or an I2C (Internal Integrated Circuit). The host is connected to the input/output device 105 to facilitate the finger issued by the host. Let it be transmitted.

另有一高速匯流排裝置10,主要包含一功率輸出級控制系統110,微控制器模組115,切換器120,12V(voltage)PWM130,3.3V Standby PWM135及3.3V PWM140,如圖所示。Another high-speed busbar device 10 mainly includes a power output stage control system 110, a microcontroller module 115, a switcher 120, a 12V (voltage) PWM 130, a 3.3V Standby PWM 135 and a 3.3V PWM 140, as shown in the figure.

輸入輸出裝置連接至一功率輸出級控制系統110,輸入輸出裝置用以將主機發出之指令,傳輸至此功率輸出級控制系統。其中功率輸出級控制系統中更包含一微控制器模組115以及切換器120,其中微控制器模組115泛指所有的微控制器,例如耳熟能詳的Intel 8051(8位元的單晶片)微控制器,或是ARM(Advanced RISC Machine)based的微控制器,亦或是微處理器。而切換器則可為switch或者多工器(Multiplexer)。The input/output device is coupled to a power output stage control system 110 for transmitting instructions issued by the host to the power output stage control system. The power output stage control system further includes a microcontroller module 115 and a switcher 120, wherein the microcontroller module 115 refers to all the microcontrollers, such as the well-known Intel 8051 (8-bit single-chip) micro Controller, or ARM (Advanced RISC Machine) based microcontroller, or microprocessor. The switch can be a switch or a multiplexer.

另外,存在一直流電源125連接至功率輸出級控制系統。亦包含多組脈衝寬度調變模組(PWM),多組PWM與功率輸出級控制系統相連接。於此實施例中,包含三組PWM,分別為12V(伏特)PWM130,3.3V Standby PWM135以及3.3V PWM140。此實施例使用3組PWM,唯此發明不以三組為限。PWM主要功能為,將類比信號轉換為脈波。為將類比信號轉換為脈波,除了PWM之外,亦可使用PAM(脈波振幅調變)及PCM(脈波符碼調變),而此處選擇PWM,是因為PWM之速度較快,可推動之Power亦較大。Additionally, there is a DC power source 125 coupled to the power output stage control system. It also includes multiple sets of pulse width modulation modules (PWM), and multiple sets of PWMs are connected to the power output stage control system. In this embodiment, three sets of PWMs are included, which are 12V (volts) PWM130, 3.3V Standby PWM135, and 3.3V PWM140. This embodiment uses three sets of PWMs, but the invention is not limited to three sets. The main function of PWM is to convert the analog signal into a pulse wave. In order to convert the analog signal into a pulse wave, in addition to PWM, PAM (pulse amplitude modulation) and PCM (pulse code modulation) can also be used, and PWM is selected here because the speed of PWM is faster. The Power that can be promoted is also larger.

當功率輸出級控制系統接收到指令,微控制器模組115用以使用及分析指令,來確認將輸出之電壓形式,以及確認在多組PWM之間,將推動之PWM為何者。其中將輸出之電壓形式可為方波、梯形波或其他脈波。其中方波之電壓形式可例如為0s(秒)至100ms(毫秒)之間輸出電壓為0V(伏特),接著100ms至200ms之間輸出電壓為3.3V,200ms之後以此重複。 梯形波之電壓形式可例如為0s至100ms之間輸出電壓以一特定斜率由0V上升至3.3V,100ms至200ms之間輸出電壓為3.3V,接下來200ms至300ms之間輸出電壓以一特定斜率由3.3V下降至0V,300ms之後以此重複。When the power output stage control system receives the command, the microcontroller module 115 uses and analyzes the instructions to confirm the form of the voltage to be output, and to confirm what the PWM will push between the multiple sets of PWMs. The form of the voltage to be outputted may be a square wave, a trapezoidal wave or other pulse wave. The square wave voltage form may be, for example, 0 s (seconds) to 100 ms (milliseconds), and the output voltage is 0 V (volts), and then the output voltage is 3.3 V between 100 ms and 200 ms, which is repeated after 200 ms. The voltage form of the trapezoidal wave can be, for example, between 0s and 100ms. The output voltage rises from 0V to 3.3V with a specific slope, and the output voltage is 3.3V between 100ms and 200ms. The output voltage of 200ms to 300ms is followed by a specific slope. It is reduced from 3.3V to 0V, and is repeated after 300ms.

切換器120與微控制器模組115,以及多組PWM130、135、140相連接。當微處理器確認將推動之PWM為何組時,即將切換器切換至將推動之PWM。微控制器模組115與直流電源相連接,透過微控制器模組115將直流電源傳輸至將推動之PWM。微控制器模組115亦與多組PWM相連接,並藉由受推動之PWM之輸出電壓,此處稱為回授電壓,用以調整微控制器模組115提供將推動之PWM之參考電壓,以使受推動之PWM產生不同之輸出電壓。The switch 120 is coupled to the microcontroller module 115 and to the plurality of sets of PWMs 130, 135, 140. When the microprocessor confirms which group of PWMs will be pushed, it switches the switch to the PWM that will be pushed. The microcontroller module 115 is coupled to the DC power source and transmits the DC power to the PWM to be driven through the microcontroller module 115. The microcontroller module 115 is also coupled to a plurality of sets of PWMs, and the output voltage of the boosted PWM, referred to herein as a feedback voltage, is used to adjust the reference voltage of the PWM module 115 that is to be driven by the PWM. So that the driven PWM produces a different output voltage.

PWM產生之電壓輸出至一驗證端裝置145,以協助驗證端裝置,執行不同輸入電壓之測試,此裝置為樣品設計階段之裝置,可為手機樣品設計裝置,或者PAD(Portable Application Description)樣品設計裝置等。The voltage generated by the PWM is output to a verification device 145 to assist the verification device to perform different input voltage tests.

如圖2所示,第二實施例之裝置大致上與第一實施例相同,差別僅在於另包含一RC(resistor-capacitor)濾波器200,此RC濾波器200與多組PWM相連接,用以將脈波轉換為弦波。此處雖使用RC濾波器,本發明不限於RC濾波器,實際上亦可使用LC(inductor-capacitor)濾波器。As shown in FIG. 2, the apparatus of the second embodiment is substantially the same as the first embodiment except that an RC (resistor-capacitor) filter 200 is further included, and the RC filter 200 is connected to a plurality of sets of PWMs. To convert the pulse wave into a sine wave. Although an RC filter is used here, the present invention is not limited to the RC filter, and an LC (inductor-capacitor) filter may be actually used.

RC濾波器亦與驗證端裝置205相連接,此裝置為樣品設計階段之裝置,可為手機樣品設計裝置,或者PAD(Portable Application Description)樣品設計裝置等。The RC filter is also connected to the verification end device 205, which is a device in the sample design stage, and can be a mobile phone sample design device or a PAD (Portable Application Description) sample design device.

The hot plugging means that the hardware can be plugged in or unplugged when the host is in operation, and the appropriate software can be used to insert or remove the power without turning off the power. Support for hot-swappable peripherals does not cause the main unit or peripheral devices to burn out and instantly detect and use new devices. Second, it supports the bus Width of four different interfaces, which are a set of interfaces (x1), four sets of interfaces (x4), eight sets of interfaces (x8), and sixteen sets of interfaces (x16). In the first place, the verification end device of different bandwidth requirements can be used. Third, a system management bus (SMBus) consisting of a clock (SMCLK) and a data transmission (SMDATA) signal, used in the connection between the high-speed bus (PCI-E) and the processor, especially for transmission and power.

This reset signal is provided by the device (eg, the power output stage control unit). PCI-E uses this signal to reset the internal logic. When the signal is valid, the PCI-E slot and its associated devices will be reset. Fifth, a wake-up signal (Wake up), when the PCI-E device enters the sleep state and the main power supply has stopped supplying power, the PCI-E device uses the Wake up signal to send a wake-up request to the processor system, so that the processor system is re-enabled. The PCI-E device provides power. Sixth, a joint test work group (JTAG) signal, signal reset by test (TRST#), test clock (TCK), test data input (TDI), test data output (TDO), and test mode selection (TMS) Signal composition, the processor can use the JTAG interface for system setup work, such as reading PCI-E related information.
