In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 3, the bluetooth headset of the present invention includes an internal charge management module 310, an external charge management chip 320, and a battery assembly 330.
The battery module 330 is used for supplying power to the bluetooth headset to provide working voltage of the bluetooth headset, so as to ensure normal operation of the bluetooth headset, wherein the battery module 330 may be any rechargeable battery module, such as a lithium ion battery.
The built-in charge management module 310 is electrically connected to the battery assembly 330 for charging the battery assembly 330 with the second charging current, wherein the built-in charge management module 310 may be disposed on a bluetooth System On Chip (SOC), and the specific structure thereof is not limited herein.

The power interface may comprise a USB interface, or other suitable interface, which is electrically connected to a power source via, for example, a data line, to provide a charging voltage of, for example, 5V to the battery assembly.
Further, as shown in fig. 3, the bluetooth headset according to the embodiment of the present invention further includes a first indicator light 341 and a second indicator light 342 for indicating the working state and the charging state of the bluetooth headset, wherein the external charging management chip and the internal charging management module share the first indicator light 341 and the second indicator light 342. Optionally, the working state of the bluetooth headset includes at least one of power-on, power-off, pairing, standby and low power; the charging state includes at least one of charging and charging completion.
The first indicator Light 341 and the second indicator Light 342 may be LED (Light Emitting Diode) lights, or other suitable lights, which have the advantages of good shock and shock resistance and high reliability, and are beneficial for improving the performance of the bluetooth headset, wherein the first indicator Light 341 and the second indicator Light 342 may be different colors to clearly indicate the working state and the charging state of the bluetooth headset, for example, one of the first indicator Light 341 and the second indicator Light 342 is blue, and the other is red, or may be other colors, which is not specifically limited herein.
In one example, a first driving module is disposed in the built-in charging management module, and is used for driving the first indicator light and the second indicator light 342 to indicate different working states or charging states of the bluetooth headset in different modes. Optionally, the different modes include at least one of normally on, slow flashing, fast flashing, alternate flashing, or other modes that can be clearly distinguished by the user, for example, the first indicator light 341 is off, and the second indicator light 342 is normally on to indicate charging; the first indicator light 341 is turned on constantly, the second indicator light 342 is turned off to indicate that charging is completed, and the bluetooth pairing state can be indicated in a flash manner, the bluetooth connection standby state can be indicated in a slow flash manner, and the like.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 3, the first driving module includes a first driving pin 311 and a second driving pin 312 disposed in the built-in charge management module 310, wherein the first driving pin 311 is configured to drive a first indicator light 341 to indicate different operating states or charging states of the bluetooth headset in different modes, and the second driving pin 312 is configured to drive a second indicator light 342 to indicate different operating states or charging states of the bluetooth headset in different modes.
In one example, the first indicator light 341 and the second indicator light 342 are both light emitting diodes, wherein the first driving pin 311 is electrically connected to a negative electrode of the first indicator light 341, and the second driving pin 312 is electrically connected to a negative electrode of the second indicator light 342.
Further, the anode of the first indicator light 341 is electrically connected to the battery assembly through a load resistor 1 so that the battery assembly provides the operating voltage to the first indicator light 341, and the anode of the second indicator light 342 is electrically connected to the battery assembly through a load resistor 2 so that the battery assembly provides the operating voltage to the second indicator light 342.
In one example, as shown in fig. 3, a second driving module is provided on the external charging management chip, and the second driving module is configured to drive on or off of at least one of the first indicator lamp 341 and the second indicator lamp 342 to indicate a different charging state of the bluetooth headset, for example, to drive the first indicator lamp 341 on and the second indicator lamp 342 off to indicate that charging is completed, or to drive the second indicator lamp 342 on and the first indicator lamp 341 off to indicate charging is in progress.
More specifically, the second driving module is configured to drive the first indicator lamp 341 and the second indicator lamp 342 to be turned on or off to indicate different charging states of the bluetooth headset when the bluetooth headset is in an off state during charging, for example, to drive the first indicator lamp 341 to be turned on and the second indicator lamp 342 to be turned off to indicate that charging is completed, or to drive the second indicator lamp 342 to be turned on and the first indicator lamp 341 to be turned off to indicate charging is in progress.
In one example, as shown in fig. 3, the second driving module includes a first pin 321 and a second pin 322 disposed on the external charge management chip, for example, the first pin 321 is a DONE pin, and the second pin 322 is a CHRG pin, where the first pin 321 is configured to be at a low potential when the battery pack is fully charged for driving the first indicator light 341 to light up to indicate that the charging state is charging completion, and is at a high resistance state when the battery pack is in a state other than charging completion, so that the first indicator light 341 can be driven to light off; the second pin 322 is configured to be at a low potential for driving the second indicator light 342 to light up to indicate that the charging state is charging when the battery pack is charging, and to be at a high impedance state when the battery pack is in a state other than charging, so as to be used for driving the second indicator light 342 to extinguish.
In one example, a first control circuit (not shown) is further disposed on the external charging management chip 320, and the first control circuit is electrically connected to the first pin 321 for placing the first pin 321 at a low potential when the battery assembly is fully charged. Optionally, a second control circuit (not shown) is further disposed on the external charging management chip 320, and the second control circuit is electrically connected to the second pin 322 for placing the second pin 322 at a low potential when the battery pack is charging, and optionally, the second control circuit includes a switch tube such as an N-channel MOSFET.
Further, as shown in fig. 3, the first indicator light 341 and the second indicator light 342 are both light emitting diodes, wherein the first pin 321 is electrically connected to a negative electrode of the first indicator light 341, and the second pin 322 is electrically connected to a negative electrode of the second indicator light 342.
Since the first pin 321 is set to a low potential when the battery pack is fully charged, the circuit including the first indicator 341 is turned on, and thus the first indicator 341 is turned on, and similarly, since the second pin 322 is set to a low potential when the battery pack is charged, the circuit including the second indicator 342 is turned on, and thus the second indicator 342 is turned on.
In an example, the bluetooth headset may be set to be powered off when the bluetooth headset is charged, that is, the bluetooth system on chip is powered off, and since the working state of the bluetooth SOC and the working time of the external charging management chip are separated from each other, there is no conflict in the working logic of the indicator light, wherein the first driving pin 311 and the second driving pin 312 are configured to be in a high impedance state when the bluetooth headset is powered off and charged, so that the pin (also referred to as pin) of the bluetooth SOC and the pin (also referred to as the first pin 321 and the second pin 322) of the external charging management chip are isolated by the high impedance state of the indicator light driving pin, so that the two circuits are isolated and do not interfere with each other, and only the external charging management chip needs to drive the first indicator light 341 and the second indicator light 342 to indicate the charging state.
In another example, if the bluetooth headset is in a non-charging state, the bluetooth headset may be in an operating state at this time, and when the bluetooth headset is not being charged, that is, the external charging management chip is disconnected from the charging power supply, for example, the USB interface does not provide a voltage of 5V, at this time, both the first pin 321 and the second pin 322 of the external charging management chip are in a high impedance state, which is isolated from the first driving pin 311 and the second driving pin 312 on the internal charging management module of the bluetooth headset, and the first indicator light 341 and the second indicator light 342 are driven only through the first driving pin 311 and the second driving pin 312 to indicate different operating states of the bluetooth headset. The above working logic can also be seen from table 3 below.
Table 3
Figure BDA0002142265990000101
Figure BDA0002142265990000111
In other examples, the bluetooth headset is not powered off during charging, that is, the bluetooth SOC is not powered off (bluetooth can work normally during charging), and such an operation mode is to make each LED not conflict in operation logic, for example, one of the first indicator light 341 and the second indicator light 342 is configured to indicate an operation state of the bluetooth headset in a different mode when the bluetooth headset is charged without being powered off, and the other is configured to indicate a charging state of the bluetooth headset in a different mode when the bluetooth headset is charged without being powered off. More specifically, as shown in fig. 3, during charging, the second pin 322 of the external charging management chip drives the second indicator light 342 to light up for indicating charging, and the first driver pin 311 on the internal charging management module drives the first indicator light 341 to display different operating states of the bluetooth headset in different modes, for example, indicating a bluetooth pairing state with a flash, indicating a bluetooth connection standby state with a slow flash, and the like.
The bluetooth headset may include other functional elements, such as an earpiece, a microphone, etc., for enabling a user to hear sounds, to make a call, etc., in addition to the structure described herein.
In summary, the earphone according to the embodiments of the present invention, for example, the bluetooth headset, has the function of increasing the charging current without increasing the number of LED indicator lamps shared by the internal charging management module and the external charging management chip of the bluetooth System On Chip (SOC) of the earphone, for example, the bluetooth headset, and in addition, the pin of the bluetooth SOC and the pin of the external charging management chip are isolated by the high impedance state of the driving pin (pin) on the internal charging management module, so that the two circuits are isolated from each other. The charging state indication and the Bluetooth working state indication of the indicator lamp such as an LED do not interfere with each other by isolating the working time of the indicator lamp (divided into two working states of charging and non-charging).
In another embodiment, as shown in fig. 4, the bluetooth headset of the embodiment of the present invention includes an internal charging management module 310, an external charging management chip 320, and a battery assembly 330.
The battery module 330 is used for supplying power to the bluetooth headset to provide working voltage of the bluetooth headset, so as to ensure normal operation of the bluetooth headset, wherein the battery module 330 may be any rechargeable battery module, such as a lithium ion battery.
The built-in charge management module 310 is electrically connected to the battery assembly 330 for charging the battery assembly 330 with the second charging current, wherein the built-in charge management module 310 may be disposed on a bluetooth System On Chip (SOC), and a specific structure thereof is not limited herein. The bluetooth System On Chip (SOC) may be a circuit module integrated by a bluetooth chip as a main chip, a communication antenna, a crystal oscillator, and other circuits.

In one example, the internal charging management module and the external charging management chip are both provided with power interfaces for electrically connecting the power supply to the battery pack. The power interface may comprise a USB interface, or other suitable interface, electrically connected to a power source via, for example, a data line, to provide a charging voltage of, for example, 5V to the battery assembly.

In one example, the bluetooth headset further includes a control module (not shown) for controlling the first indicator lamp 341 and the second indicator lamp 342 to be turned off or turned on to indicate different charging states according to a comparison result of the second charging current and the second cutoff current, wherein if the second charging current is greater than the second cutoff current, the first indicator lamp 341 is controlled to be continuously turned on to indicate charging, and if the second charging current is equal to the second cutoff current, the second indicator lamp 342 is controlled to be turned on to indicate charging completion and the first indicator lamp 341 is controlled to be turned off. The Control module may be configured in the internal charging management, and optionally, the Control module may be a Micro-programmed Control Unit (MCU) or a similar structure, which is not limited herein.
The battery pack is charged in parallel through the external charging management chip and the internal charging management module, the charging current is reasonably distributed, so that the first cut-off current of the external charging management chip is larger than the second cut-off current of the internal charging management module, when the charging current of the external charging management chip is reduced to the cut-off current, the external charging management chip stops charging, the first cut-off current of the internal charging management module is not reached yet, the external charging management chip continues to charge the battery pack, the battery pack is fully charged until the charging current of the external charging management chip is reduced to the second cut-off current, the control module controls the second indicator light 342 to be turned on to indicate that charging is completed, and the first indicator light 341 is controlled to be turned off.
According to the Bluetooth headset provided by the embodiment of the invention, the Bluetooth state indication and the charging state indication can be realized only by two indicator lamps, so that the cost is saved, and the circuit is simpler.
As shown in fig. 5, an embodiment of the present invention further provides a method for controlling an indicator light, which may be implemented based on the structure of the bluetooth headset in the foregoing embodiment, and specifically, the method includes the following steps:
in step S501, the external charging management chip and the internal charging management module are started to charge the battery pack with a first charging current and a second charging current, respectively, where a total charging current is a sum of the first charging current and the second charging current, for example, if the total charging current is a, a charging current allocated to the external charging management chip is B, and a charging current allocated to the internal charging management module is C, then a = B + C.
In step S502, according to a comparison result between the second charging current and the second cutoff current, the first indicator lamp and the second indicator lamp are controlled to be turned off or turned on to indicate different charging states, wherein if the second charging current is greater than the second cutoff current, the first indicator lamp is controlled to be continuously turned on to indicate charging, and if the second charging current is equal to the second cutoff current, the second indicator lamp is controlled to be turned on to indicate charging completion and the first indicator lamp is controlled to be turned off.
The external charging management chip is configured to stop charging the battery assembly when the first charging current is reduced to a first cut-off current; the built-in charging management module is configured to stop charging the battery assembly when the second charging current decreases to a second cutoff current, wherein the first cutoff current is greater than the second cutoff current.
In a charging cycle, as shown in fig. 6, when the first charging current of the external charging management chip is reduced to the first cut-off current, the external charging management chip stops charging, the internal charging management module continues charging, controls the first indicator lamp to be continuously turned on to indicate that charging is in progress, then determines whether the second charging current of the internal charging management chip is reduced to the second cut-off current, and when the second charging current of the internal charging management chip is reduced to the second cut-off current, controls the first indicator lamp to be turned off, and controls the second indicator lamp to be turned on to indicate that charging is completed. Alternatively, the first indicator light may be a red light and the second indicator light a blue light.
According to the control method provided by the embodiment of the invention, the Bluetooth state indication and the charging state indication can be realized only by two indicator lamps, so that the cost is saved, and the circuit of the Bluetooth headset is simpler.
