Referring to Fig. 2, wherein showing the electricity of one embodiment of charging unit according to the present invention and charging circuit therein Road schematic diagram (charging unit 200, charging circuit 20), charging unit 200 include DC power supply 2 and charging circuit 20, charging Circuit 20 converts a supply voltage Vdc of DC power supply 2 and generates a charge power supply, to charge to battery BAT.
Charging circuit 20 includes control unit 21 and power-switching circuit 22.Power-switching circuit 22 is to convert direct current One supply voltage Vdc of power supply 2 and generate a charge power supply, to charge to battery BAT, wherein charge power supply include charging Voltage Vbat and charging current Ibat.Control unit 21 then to control power-switching circuit 22, wherein one charging during, Control unit 21 detects a dropout voltage (Dropout voltage, Vdrop) for charging circuit 20, and according to dropout voltage Vdrop and adjust supply voltage Vdc, to reduce dropout voltage Vdrop;Wherein dropout voltage Vdrop refer to supply voltage Vdc with The difference of charging voltage Vbat.
In one embodiment, control unit 21 send a control to believe according to charging voltage Vbat and/or charging current Ibat Number CTRL adjusts supply voltage Vdc to DC power supply 2.Wherein power-switching circuit 22 can be such as, but not limited to linear power supply Conversion circuit or switched-mode power supply conversion circuit.
In one embodiment, DC power supply 2 above-mentioned, charging circuit 20 and control unit meet such as, but not limited to USB Power Delivery, PumpExpress or Quick Charge 3.0 etc. or other similar there is adjustable charging voltage And/or the power bus specification of charging current, in one embodiment, DC power supply 2 may be, for example, one and meet any of the above-described power supply Power supply adaptor (adaptor), mobile power source or the power supply circuit of bus specification;It in one embodiment, can be by meeting The communication interface of any of the above-described power bus specification and transmit control signal CTRL above-mentioned.
Referring to Fig. 3 A, 3B and 5, wherein showing the control flow chart of two embodiments of charging circuit according to the present invention (while also corresponding to charge control method of the invention), also charging stage schematic diagram referring to figure 4..Firstly, charging circuit 20 receive a supply voltage Vdc caused by DC power supply 2, to be charged (step S1) to battery BAT, in an embodiment In, supply voltage Vdc may be set to an initial voltage (such as, but not limited to 5V).After battery BAT starts to be charged, detection Charging voltage Vbat, if reach a scheduled voltage Vp (step S2), wherein scheduled voltage Vp (Fig. 4) is such as, but not limited to It can be the saturation charging voltage (such as 4.2V or one set according to needs voltage value) of battery BAT;In one embodiment, After step S2, when charging voltage Vbat has reached scheduled voltage Vp, it can be attached to step S9, such as, but not limited to by power supply Voltage Vdc is set as initial voltage (such as, but not limited to 5V).
On the other hand, when charging voltage Vbat is lower than scheduled voltage Vp, it is however generally that, representative may be still main Charging stage (such as control current-mode), the at this time dropout voltage (Dropout of supply voltage Vdc and charging voltage Vbat Voltage, Vdrop) it is excessive, this is likely to result in a large amount of energy losses, and overheats charging circuit 20.According to the present invention, work as battery The charging voltage Vbat of BAT be lower than scheduled voltage Vp when, charging circuit 20 can send a control signal CTRL to DC power supply 2 with It reduces supply voltage Vdc (step S3), then, and judges whether supply voltage Vdc decreases step S4;When battery BAT's It when charging voltage Vbat is lower than scheduled voltage Vp, indicates that dropout voltage is excessive, therefore send control signal to DC power supply 2 to drop Low supply voltage Vdc, thus reduces dropout voltage.
However, different DC power supplies 2 might have the output setting combination of different electrical power voltage Vdc, in some instances it may even be possible to complete It is adjusted completely without method, so DC power supply 2 receives control signal CTRL and can not necessarily decrease supply voltage Vdc.First At least one in the case of kind, when supply voltage Vdc is not decreased, charging circuit 20 can perform the following operation (step S10, Fig. 3 B): (1) stop adjusting the supply voltage, it is multiple to the DC power supply that (2) repeatedly transmit the control signal, and detects the electricity Whether source voltage correspondinglys increase or reduces therewith, and when number one pre-determined number of arrival for transmitting the control signal, the power supply is electric Pressure is when correspondingling increase or reduces therewith, just the stopping adjustment supply voltage, (3) according to a preset minimum current value Ipmi, Charge to battery BAT, wherein when supply voltage Vdc do not reduce and dropout voltage (Dropout voltage, Vdrop) still When excessive, because power is equal to the product of voltage and electric current, in the case where voltage can not be reduced, energy loss is reduced in the present embodiment Mode can are as follows: charging circuit 20 reduces the charging current Ibat to battery BAT.In the latter case, when DC power supply 2 receives When controlling signal and reducing supply voltage Vdc, then the charging current Ibat (step S5, Fig. 3 A) or charging electricity of battery BAT are detected Press Vbat (step S5, Fig. 5), when supply voltage Vdc reduce but battery BAT charging current Ibat or charging voltage Vbat not When reducing with the downgrading (i.e. step S3) of supply voltage Vdc, step S2 such as, but not limited at this moment can be returned to, is implemented one In example, after step S5, when charging current Ibat (or charging voltage Vbat) not downgrading and accordingly reduce with supply voltage Vdc When, it more waits after a preset time (step S51, such as, but not limited to 10 seconds), just returns to step S2;Or to supply voltage Adjustment can stop at this (not actively control charging circuit 20, leave charging circuit 20 according to the hardware mechanisms of its circuit come Running).
On the other hand, when supply voltage Vdc is reduced but the charging current Ibat or charging voltage Vbat of battery BAT also drop When low, then send control signal to DC power supply 2 to improve supply voltage Vdc (S6).When battery BAT charging current Ibat or fill When piezoelectric voltage Vbat is reduced with supply voltage Vdc and and then reduced, representing, which reduces supply voltage Vdc, produces negative effect, lifts For example, the minimum that power-switching circuit 22 can bear may be lower than due to dropout voltage Vdrop, cause to charge Electric current Ibat is likely lower than the predetermined charging current Ip2 in control current-mode (Fig. 4), and (another example, may be in pre-charging stage In be lower than predetermined charging current Ip1), or cause charging voltage Vbat be likely lower than control voltage mode in predetermined charging electricity Pressure, causes charge efficiency to reduce, and above situation indicates that supply voltage Vdc be allowed to drop to current level, and should Supply voltage Vdc is up adjusted, according to the present invention, at this moment can send control signal CTRL to DC power supply 2 to improve supply voltage Vdc (step S6).
Then, the supply voltage (step S7) is detected once again, when supply voltage Vdc is mentioned with the control of control signal CTRL Gao Shi, then then judge whether charging voltage Vbat (or charging current Ibat) correspondinglys increase with the height-regulating of supply voltage Vdc (step S8), when charging current Ibat (S8, Fig. 3 A) or charging voltage Vbat also with raising when (S8, Fig. 5) when, indicate pass through Step S3~S6 has found current optimal supply voltage Vdc.Later, in one embodiment, step S2 can be returned to, continues to judge The charging voltage Vbat of battery BAT, if reach scheduled voltage Vp.As the charging voltage Vbat of battery BAT, predetermined electricity is reached When pressure value Vp, stop the supply voltage Vdc (S9) that adjustment DC power supply 2 provides, at this moment to the Main Stage of battery BAT charging Through completing, in one embodiment, in step S9, DC power supply can be set to such as, but not limited to initial voltage value.It is subsequent, Control voltage mode (Fig. 4) such as, but not limited to can be used to charge battery BAT.
And in one embodiment, after step S8, when charging voltage Vbat (or charging current Ibat) is with supply voltage Vdc Height-regulating and when correspondingling increase, more wait after a preset time (step S81, such as, but not limited to 30 seconds), just return to step S2, In other words, due to having found current optimal supply voltage Vdc by step S3~S6, optimal power supply voltage that can be current Vdc persistently charged after a period of time, then row judges whether to repeat the adjustment process of above-mentioned supply voltage Vdc.
On the other hand, in step S7, when judging that supply voltage Vdc is not improved with control signal CTRL, implement one In example, this can be stopped to the adjustment of supply voltage and (do not control charging circuit 20 actively, charging circuit 20 of leaving is according to its electricity The hardware mechanisms on road operate);Or in one embodiment, step S10 can be connected.When DC power supply 2 receives control letter Number, but when not adjusting the supply voltage Vdc of output, indicate that supply voltage Vdc can be lowered but cannot be raised, therefore implement one In example, wrong warning at this moment can also be issued.
When whether detection supply voltage Vdc improves (S7), discovery supply voltage Vdc is improved, but detects the charging of battery BAT Whether electric current Ibat or charging voltage Vbat improve (S8), when discovery does not improve, at this moment can stop to the adjustment of supply voltage In this (not controlling charging circuit 20 actively, charging circuit 20 of leaving is operated according to the hardware mechanisms of its circuit);Implement one In example, step S6 can be returned to, reattempts and improves supply voltage Vdc.In one embodiment, can more wait a preset time (such as But 10 seconds are not limited to, S82) after, just return to step S6.
In one embodiment, the side of above-mentioned reduction supply voltage Vdc (step S3) or raising supply voltage Vdc (step S6) Formula can reduce or improve respectively every time the voltage difference of a default, it is, whenever needing to adjust, with the voltage difference of default Value accordingly to adjust supply voltage Vdc.
Referring to Fig. 4, show in an embodiment according to the present invention, DC power supply 2 is in the leading portion of operating process C1, according to control Signal CTRL processed and gradually reduce supply voltage Vdc, to approach charging voltage Vbat, thus reduce dropout voltage to reduce energy Damage.However, discovery will cause charging voltage Vbat and also decrease (example in the control process for constantly reducing supply voltage Vdc Such as the T1 in Fig. 4, such as, but not limited to the charging voltage level lower than default former before T1), therefore, such as abovementioned steps S6 (figure 5) described, send control signal CTRL to DC power supply 2 to improve supply voltage Vdc, to improve charging voltage Vbat (such as Fig. 4 In T2 and T3), and continue to maintain dropout voltage Vdrop in control range.
Referring now still to Fig. 4, in the leading portion of operating process C2, in the control process for reducing supply voltage Vdc, it is also possible to make It is too low at dropout voltage Vdrop and cause and charging current Ibat is made also to decrease (such as the T4 in Fig. 4, such as but not It is limited to lower than preset charging current level former before T4), therefore, as described in abovementioned steps S6 (Fig. 3 A), send control signal extremely DC power supply 2 is to improve supply voltage Vdc, to improve charging current Ibat (such as T5 in Fig. 4), and continues to maintain pressure difference Voltage Vdrop is in control range.
Mode of operation of the invention is different from known technology, is a technology being dynamically adapted, can maintain dropout voltage Vdrop can ensure that charging voltage Vbat and charging current Ibat without departing from being wanted in energy loss in control range, is greatly decreased Target value.
It should be noted that: the present invention is not limited to Fig. 3 A, step shown in 5, and can plant under spirit of the invention Kind variation.
For example, in one embodiment, step S4 (Fig. 3 A, 5) can be omitted, it is, downgrading supply voltage Vdc in step S3 Later, it is not required to detection supply voltage Vdc, and is directly connected step S5 (Fig. 3 A, 5).Similarly, in one embodiment, step S7 (Fig. 3 A, 5) can be omitted, it is, it is not required to detection supply voltage Vdc after supply voltage Vdc is turned up in step S6, and it is straight Linking is connect to step S8 (Fig. 3 A, 5).
In another example although Fig. 3 A, in 5, display " judges whether the charging voltage Vbat of battery BAT reaches scheduled voltage Vp " is step S2, however when implementing, the present invention can the charging voltage Vbat of battery BAT check at any time whether reach predetermined electricity Pressure value Vp, that is, in any step of charge control method of Fig. 3 A, 5 or between any two steps, when the charging of battery BAT When voltage Vbat reaches scheduled voltage Vp, it can all stop the supply voltage Vdc for adjusting DC power supply 2.For example, direct current After reducing supply voltage Vdc after the reception of source 2 control signal, when supply voltage Vdc reduces the charging current of (S3) and battery BAT When Ibat (S5, Fig. 3 A) or charging voltage Vbat (S5, Fig. 5) are not decreased, S2 can be entered step, judges filling for battery BAT Whether piezoelectric voltage Vbat reaches scheduled voltage Vp, etc..
In addition, Fig. 3 A, in 5, it is any shown in step (such as step S1, S3, S10, S6, S9, S10, S51, S81, S82 Deng), the step of being not limited to single single action (one-shot), and can there is one persistently to handle the time or processing is multiple;Each judgement Step (such as step S2, S4, S5, S7, S8) can accordingly judge the duration or accordingly judge number.
For example, above-mentioned judge the step of whether supply voltage Vdc decreases (S4), it is not limited to: when to DC power supply 2 After issuing a secondary control signal, discovery supply voltage Vdc is not decreased immediately, and just step S10 is arrived in linking.In an embodiment In, one section of default time can be waited, discovery supply voltage Vdc is not reduced, and just step S10 is arrived in linking.
