Fig. 3 shows according to an embodiment of the invention for the line drive circuit 300 of fire alarm system and fire detector 120 and the EOL that is connected to this driving circuit 300 via circuit Line.As shown in Figure 3, driving circuit 300 provides line current I to circuit Line line.Fire detector 120 is connected between circuit Line+ and Line-.The distal end of circuit is connected to termination components EOL, and termination components EOL is for example resistance element or is preferably Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS).Due to the existence of circuit (or cable) internal resistance (Rcable), the line current I of current through line Line linebefore sending to fire detector 120, form on the line certain pressure drop V r=I line* Rcable.Thereby the voltage at fire detector 120 two ends is Vd=V line-V r, V wherein lineline voltage distribution for driving circuit 300 sides observations.The electric current of fire detector 120 of flowing through is Id.The electric current of termination components EOL of far-end of flowing through is I eOL.
In the example shown in Fig. 3, driving circuit 300 comprises current generating circuit 310 and testing circuit 320.Current generating circuit 310 can optionally provide at least two line current I that vary in size to circuit Line line, i.e. the first electric current I n1with the second electric current I aLARMone of in the two.Wherein, the first electric current I n1as the circuit monitoring electric current under normal operating conditions, the second electric current I aLARMalarm electric current during as alarm, the second electric current I aLARMbe greater than the first electric current I n1.Testing circuit 320 is connected on circuit, for the line voltage distribution V detecting on circuit Line linewhether lower than a threshold value V thwhen (that is, representing to have occurred alarm signal on circuit), through controlling path C1 control current generating circuit 310, to circuit Line, provide the second electric current I aLARM.Wherein, threshold value V ththe maximum alarm voltage V indicating on circuit Line in the time of can being set as lower than the normal voltage on circuit and higher than fire detector 120 alarm alarm.Suppose, the fire detector that is connected to circuit comprises two kinds of detector 120-1 and 120-2, V as shown in Figure 2 A and 2 B thcan be set as being greater than for example 12V, i.e. the alarm voltage of fire detector 120-2.
In example shown in Fig. 3, testing circuit 320 can specifically comprise two parts, and one is threshold decision circuit 321, and it two is control circuit 325.Threshold decision circuit 321 is coupled on circuit, for judging line voltage distribution V linewhether lower than threshold value V th(for example 12V).Control circuit 325 is at line voltage distribution V linebe reduced to threshold value V thunder time, make current generating circuit 310 from the first electric current I is provided n1be switched to the second electric current I is provided aLARM.Like this, in normal condition, adopt little electric current I n1monitor, at alarm status, adopt large electric current I aLARMmaintain alarm signal.Thus, not only can support dissimilar fire detector, can also be central control system power saving.
Fig. 4 illustrates driving circuit 400 in accordance with another embodiment of the present invention.In example as shown in Figure 4, current generating circuit 410 is preferably for example two current sources in parallel, and the outgoing route of one of them current source is provided with a gate-controlled switch K.Under normal condition, gate-controlled switch K disconnects, and only the first current source provides monitor current I to circuit Line n1.At testing circuit 420, monitor V linedrop to V thbelow, while there is alarm ALARM, testing circuit 420 gauge tap K conductings, thereby current source I n1with current source I aLto circuit Line, provide electric current I simultaneously aLARM=I n1+ I aL.
In example shown in Fig. 4, testing circuit 420 comprises that one as the series arm of threshold decision, and this series arm is connected between circuit Line+ and Line-.This series arm comprises a voltage stabilizing diode D1 and a resistance R 3.Testing circuit 420 is output as the voltage Vt of tie point between voltage stabilizing diode D1 and resistance R 3.Wherein, the breakdown reverse voltage of voltage stabilizing diode is threshold voltage V th, for example, for 15V(, be greater than the maximum alarm voltage 12V of fire detector).Certainly, in the example shown in Fig. 4, voltage stabilizing diode D1 can also be substituted by two or more voltage stabilizing diode, and at this moment the breakdown reverse voltage sum of these voltage stabilizing diodes is described threshold voltage V th.In the example shown in Fig. 4, at normal operation (V line=24V) time, due to voltage stabilizing diode D1 reverse breakdown, Vt is high level; There is alarm (V line<15V) time, voltage stabilizing diode D1 is high-impedance state, and Vt is low level.In the example shown in Fig. 4, control circuit is reduced to the direct voltage with Vt and via control path C1, comes conducting or the disconnection of gauge tap K.Shown in Fig. 4 is a kind of simple implementation method.According to actual needs, those skilled in the art also can adopt comparer to realize the threshold decision circuit 321 in Fig. 3, and control circuit 325 can rationally convert the output of for example this comparer after gauge tap K again.These distortion are all apparent to those skilled in the art.
Fig. 5 shows shown in Fig. 4 the oscillogram of the electric current on circuit and voltage in example.As shown in Figure 5, under normal (NORM) duty, driving circuit 400 output monitoring electric current I n1upper to circuit Line, line voltage distribution V lineremain on for example normal voltage V n=24V.When some or a plurality of fire detector alarm, line voltage distribution V line is littlebe pulled down to for example Vth=15V of Vth() below, be for example pulled down to V aL=12V or 5.6V.Now, driving circuit 400 output I aLARM=I n1+ I aL, so that alarm voltage V aLmaintain a period of time Ta.Then, fire detector is automatically reset and is entered the normal monitor procedure in next cycle.I in the example shown in Fig. 5 n1for example be about 6mA, I aLabout 24mA, I aLARM=I n1+ I aL=about 30mA.But, choose reasonable I as required in actual applications n1and I aLsize.Below only exemplarily list the mode of selection.
In example shown in Fig. 3 and Fig. 4, preferably, I n1need to be greater than (monitor stages flows through the quiescent current sum of all fire detectors+the flow through minimum forward current of termination components EOL).If suppose that the quiescent current of each detector is Im, m=0,1, ~, M, wherein M is the maximum number of attachable detector on circuit, I n1can meet following formula:
I N1≥(M×Max(Im)+Min(I EOL)),
Wherein, Max (Im) represents the maximal value of each detector quiescent current, Min (I eOL) represent to flow through the minimum forward current value of EOL.Preferably, I n1for about 6mA or lower.
In the example shown in Fig. 3 and Fig. 4, preferably, I aLARMthe alarm voltage of fire detector as shown in Figure 2 B need to provide large electric current, so that can maintain for example 12V.For example,, for the structure shown in Fig. 2 B, I aLARMduring for about 30mA, alarm voltage can maintain and be greater than 12V, is so just enough to avoid detector automatically to be reset.Certainly, those skilled in the art choose reasonable I according to actual needs aLARMsize.
Fig. 6 exemplarily shows a kind of particular circuit configurations of block diagram shown in Fig. 3.As shown in Figure 6, driving circuit 600 comprises current generating circuit 610 and testing circuit 620.
Current generating circuit 610 is preferably a current source that output current is variable.This current source comprises a triode V101 who is operated under magnifying state and connects into common emitter circuit, is connected on the variable resistance circuit 612 of the emitter-base bandgap grading of this triode V101, for controlling the voltage control circuit 613 of these variable resistance circuit 612 both end voltage.
As shown in Figure 6, the triode V101 in current source is for example positive-negative-positive triode, its collector C as output stage, be connected on circuit Line.The emitter-base bandgap grading E of triode V101 is also connected to Vcc through variable resistance circuit 612.Although Fig. 6 shows the scheme that realizes current source with positive-negative-positive triode, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that this current source also can be by NPN type triode, metal-oxide-semiconductor, amplifier etc. other circuit that can be used for building current source realize.
In Fig. 6, and Vcc obtains a stable reference voltage Vref at a R place after resistance in series R118, R114 and R119 dividing potential drop.Stabilivolt 614 is for the voltage at stable series connection resistance R 118 and R114 two ends.Voltage control circuit 613 obtains sampled voltage from the emitter-base bandgap grading E of triode, and it is compared with reference voltage Vref, comparative result preferably after proportional integral (PI) for controlling the base stage B of triode V101, adjust thus V cEsize.Like this, the voltage at variable resistance circuit 612 two ends can be issued in the control of voltage control circuit 613 substantially invariable size.In other words, the size of current of triode V101 output is determined by the resistance sizes of variable resistance circuit 612 that is connected on the emitter-base bandgap grading E of V101.
In the example shown in Fig. 6, variable resistance circuit 612 comprises two resistance branch R108 and the R111 being connected in parallel to each other.In the resistance branch at R111 place, be also provided with a controlled switch element K, the controlled end of K is connected to the output terminal of testing circuit 620.In the example shown in Fig. 6, controlled switch element K is preferably a metal-oxide-semiconductor V102, and its grid G is controlled end.When grid voltage while being high metal-oxide-semiconductor V102 disconnect, thereby only resistance R 108 work, triode V101 output current size is I n1=V r108/ R108.When grid voltage metal-oxide-semiconductor V102 conducting while being low, thus resistance R 111 and resistance R 108 parallel connections, triode V101 output current size I aLARM=V r108/ (R108//R111).
Although Fig. 6 shows the solution of carrying out regulation output electric current with variable emitter resistance, it will be appreciated by persons skilled in the art that current generating circuit 610 can also adopt other modes that two kinds of drive currents that vary in size are optionally provided.For example, current generating circuit 610 can also provide switchable output current by voltage source and variable resistance.Again for example, current generating circuit 610 can also be the electric current heavy (current sink) for current drawn from circuit.Same, for example this electric current is heavy can consist of the triode that connects into common firing-circuit, and the current collection of triode is output terminal very, and emitter-base bandgap grading is connected to ground via the second resistance.A voltage control circuit is for making the voltage stabilization at described the second resistance two ends in one of the first magnitude of voltage and second voltage value, wherein, this voltage control circuit can switch to second voltage value by the first magnitude of voltage in response to the control signal of described testing circuit (620).
In the example shown in Fig. 6, testing circuit 620 comprises voltage stabilizing diode V112 and the resistance R 121 of connecting with it, and the two is connected between Line+ and Line-, as threshold decision circuit 621.The breakdown reverse voltage of this voltage stabilizing diode V112 equals threshold value V th, 15V for example.Alternatively, this voltage stabilizing diode V112 also can be substituted by a plurality of voltage stabilizing diode, and the breakdown reverse voltage sum of the plurality of voltage stabilizing diode equals threshold value Vth.In addition, the voltage Vp of the binding site P of control circuit 625 between voltage stabilizing diode V112 and resistance R 121 is as threshold decision result.
At Fig. 6, control circuit 625 comprises that this on-off circuit comprises triode V109 and the V107 of cascade for Vp being converted to the on-off circuit of switching value.Two triode V107 and V109 all connect into common emitter circuit, wherein V109 be input as Vp, the output of V109 is as the input of V107.The output of V107 is for controlling the controlled end of the K switch of variable resistance circuit 612.Thus, work as V lineduring lower than Vth, Vp from high level become (GND), the triode V109 of originally conducting is turn-offed, and then V alarm_Linebecome high level.V at this high level alarm_Lineunder driving, V107 conducting, thus the collector C of V107 end becomes low level, and make thus metal-oxide-semiconductor V102 conducting, resistance R 111 is in parallel with R108.Can realize thus larger drive current is provided on the line in response to alarm signal, to maintain alarm voltage.
Fig. 7 exemplarily shows according to an embodiment of the invention the circuit driving method for example fire alarm system as shown in Figure 1B.Wherein, the fire detector being connected in circuit can comprise the detector as shown in Fig. 2 A and/or Fig. 2 B.As shown in Figure 7, circuit driving method is from step S710.In step S710, in normal operation, to circuit Line, provide the first electric current I n1, wherein, the first electric current I n1as the circuit monitoring electric current under normal operating conditions.In step S720, the line voltage distribution V on detection line Line line.In step S730, judgement line voltage distribution V linewhether lower than a threshold value V th, threshold value V thsubnormal line voltage distribution but the maximum alarm voltage V that indicates on the line during higher than fire detector alarm alarm.For example, V alarmfor the alarm voltage of the detector shown in Fig. 2 B, 12V for example, Vth may be selected to be for example 15V.If the determination result is NO, method flow returns to step S720 continuation detection line voltage V line.If judgment result is that to be, show to occur alarm, and then method flow proceeds to step S740.In step S740, by the electric current providing to circuit Line from the first electric current I n1switch to the second electric current I aLARM.I wherein aLARM>I n1.Preferably, the second electric current I aLARMsize be enough to make described maximum alarm voltage V alarmcan maintain a predetermined amount of time, so that described fire alarm system detects described alarm.
