Protection circuit for three-wire system current output transmitter
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of three-wire system current transmitter port protection circuit.
Background technology
The transmitter of electric current output type is widely used in the Industry Control scene, and its effect is the current signal that the signal of some transducer (generally being voltage signal) is amplified and converts to standard 4-20MA.The operation principle of the transmitter of this kind generally is to carry out voltage signal earlier to amplify, and carries out voltage to current conversion in output stage.Output stage generally is made up of transistor or FET, and the practical application electrical schematic diagram is seen Fig. 1.
The protection mechanism of this circuit is following:
Diode D1 and D2 are clamp diodes, guarantee that the level of current output terminal is between GND-0.7V~VCC+0.7V, and the effect of diode D4 is to prevent the power supply reversal connection, and R1 is a current-limiting resistance.This circuit has following shortcoming:
1. introduce resistance R 1 in the circuit and do current limliting, resistance is the affects load capacity too, and too little current limitation effect is poor, because power ratio is bigger, corresponding volume is also bigger, is unfavorable for the miniaturization of product, so resistance R 1 usually need not.
2. work as power positive end and be connected on GND position among Fig. 1; Power supply negative terminal is connected on VCC position among Fig. 1; Signal end is connected on when IOUT holds among Fig. 1 (power supply reversal connection phenomenon); The current ratio of diode D2 and the resistance R 1 of flowing through this moment is bigger, if the detection resistance of load end is smaller simultaneously, then might cause diode D2 or load resistance to damage.
3. work as power positive end and be connected on GND position among Fig. 1, power supply negative terminal is connected on IOUT position among Fig. 1, and signal end is connected on when VCC holds among Fig. 1, is equivalent to power supply direct short-circuit (supposing the very little or not installation of resistance R 1 resistance) this moment, causes the damage of diode D2 overcurrent.
So there is unreasonable part in traditional protective circuit, need further to improve.
Summary of the invention
Technical problem to be solved by this invention is exactly to the present situation of above-mentioned prior art the protection circuit for three-wire system current output transmitter that a kind of structure is more reasonable and practical, can carry out omnibearing protection to the power supply and the output line of transmitter to be provided.
The present invention solves the problems of the technologies described above the technical scheme that is adopted to be: a kind of protection circuit for three-wire system current output transmitter; It includes to be connected between transmitter power end and current output terminal, current output terminal and the ground GND and is connected with clamp diode D1 and D2 in turn; Be connected with the diode D4 that prevents the power supply reversal connection between the transmitter terminals of power end and VCC end; It is characterized in that having in addition the small-signal metal-oxide-semiconductor Q1 of P-channel enhancement type; The source S of pipe Q1 is received the current output terminal of transmitter output stage, and grid G ground connection GND, drain D and the transmitter terminals as electric current output are in series with the diode D3 of buffer action.
As improvement, described small-signal metal-oxide-semiconductor Q1 selects the pipe of SOT-23 encapsulation for use, so that the replacement current-limiting resistance to be arranged, has reduced the wiring board area.
As improvement, described diode D3 selects the Schottky diode of withstand voltage greater than the circuit voltage value for use, and it is very little to the load capacity influence of electric current output.
At last, described diode D3 is under the enough conditions of load capacity surplus, and diode D3 also can select common rectification type diode for use, to reduce cost.

Embodiment
Embodiment describes in further detail the present invention below in conjunction with accompanying drawing.
To above-mentioned deficiency, the present invention can carry out omnibearing protection to the power supply and the output line of transmitter, and the principle sketch is seen Fig. 2.
In the technical scheme of the present invention; A kind of protection circuit for three-wire system current output transmitter; It includes to be connected between transmitter power end and current output terminal, current output terminal and the ground GND and is connected with clamp diode D1 and D2 in turn, is connected with the diode D4 that prevents the power supply reversal connection between the transmitter terminals of power end and VCC end, and the crucial part of its invention is current-limiting resistance is removed; Change the small-signal metal-oxide-semiconductor Q1 of P-channel enhancement type into; The source S of pipe Q1 is received the output of transmitter output stage, grid G ground connection, drain D and transmitter terminals are in series with isolating diode D3.During operate as normal, V
GS≤-2V, pipe Q1 is in conducting state, 4-20mA electric current flowing pipe Q1 and diode D3, because the conducting resistance very little (can be lower than 1 Ω) of pipe Q1, diode D3 selects Schottky diode for use, and is very little to the load capacity influence of electric current output.

The advantage of this circuit is following:
1 adopts small-signal metal-oxide-semiconductor (SOT-23 encapsulation) to replace current-limiting resistance, has reduced the wiring board area.
2 when the power supply reversal connection, V
GS<0, metal-oxide-semiconductor Q1 is in cut-off state, and the safety of transmitter and power supply has been protected in no current loop in the circuit.
3 work as power positive end is connected on GND position among Fig. 2, and power supply negative terminal is connected on IOUT position among Fig. 2, and signal end is connected on when VCC holds among Fig. 2, V
GS<0, metal-oxide-semiconductor Q1 is in cut-off state equally, and no current loop in the circuit is so protected the safety of transmitter and power supply.
