the comparison circuit comprises a first comparator U3 and a second comparator U4, wherein the first voltage regulating output end is connected with a non-inverting input end of the first comparator U3, the sampling output end is connected with an inverting input end of the first comparator U3, the second voltage regulating output end is connected with an inverting input end of the second comparator U4, the sampling output end is connected with a non-inverting input end of the second comparator U4, and the output end of the first comparator U3 and the output end of the second comparator U4 are both connected to a controller 400 to output a comparison result.
The comparison circuit in this embodiment is provided with a first comparator U3 and a second comparator U4, and can be adapted to the situation that the sampling output end outputs an alternating voltage, and since the alternating voltage outputs a negative voltage in a negative half period and cannot be directly input into the comparator, a constant voltage port V0 is provided to pull up the voltage at the sampling output end, so that the voltage input to the inverting input end of the first comparator U3 and the non-inverting input end of the second comparator U4 is greater than 0, and the first comparator U3 and the second comparator U4 can perform comparison of positive voltages. Specifically, referring to fig. 3, the comparison circuit further includes a ninth resistor R9, a tenth resistor R10, and a constant voltage port V0 for adjusting a voltage of a sampling output terminal, the sampling output terminal is connected to an inverting input terminal of the first comparator U3 and a non-inverting input terminal of the second comparator U4 through the ninth resistor R9, and the constant voltage port V0 is connected to the inverting input terminal of the first comparator U3 and the non-inverting input terminal of the second comparator U4 through the tenth resistor R10. According to circuit analysis, the resistance value of the ninth resistor R9 and the resistance value of the tenth resistor R10 influence the voltage values input to the inverting input terminal of the first comparator U3 and the non-inverting input terminal of the second comparator U4, for example, when the resistance values of the ninth resistor R9 and the tenth resistor R10 are equal, the value of the P-point voltage is equal to half of the sum of the voltage of the constant voltage port V0 and the voltage of the sampling output terminal.
The sampling circuit 100 in this embodiment may sample a dc line or an ac line, the sampling circuit 100 further includes at least one sampling input terminal, configured to obtain an electrical signal, if the number of the sampling input terminals is one, the sampling input terminal may be connected to a voltage-dividing dc circuit to obtain a dc voltage, or the sampling input terminal may be connected to an ac circuit to obtain an ac current or an ac voltage, if the number of the sampling input terminals is two, the sampling input terminals are respectively a first sampling terminal and a second sampling terminal, at this time, the sampling circuit 100 further includes a sampling op amp U5, the first sampling terminal is connected to a non-inverting input terminal of the sampling op amp U5, the second sampling terminal is connected to an inverting input terminal of the sampling op amp U5, an output terminal of the sampling op amp U5 is connected to the sampling output terminal, and a characteristic that a voltage drop exists between two ends of the sampling resistor R0 is utilized, the first and second sampling terminals provide different voltage inputs to the sample op-amp U5. Obviously, the case that the number of sampling input end is two can also be sampled direct current circuit or alternating current circuit, when sampling direct current circuit, only first sampling end is connected to direct current circuit, the second sampling end is unsettled, sampling fortune is put ware U5 and is equivalent to a voltage follower this moment, output direct current voltage, when sampling alternating current circuit, first sampling end, second sampling end and sampling resistance R0 all insert on same alternating current circuit, thereby obtain two different voltages at two inputs of sampling fortune ware U5, therefore sampling circuit 100 can be to sampling direct current circuit or alternating current circuit, have the commonality.
The sampling operational amplifier U5 can be a differential operational amplifier, which can linearly scale down the voltage, reduce the common-mode signal interference, improve the accuracy of the sampling voltage, and realize the accurate control.
In an embodiment, referring to fig. 1, the non-inverting input terminal of the sampling and operational amplifier U5 is connected in series with an eleventh resistor R11, the inverting input terminal is connected in series with a twelfth resistor R12, the sampling and operational amplifier U5 further includes a thirteenth resistor R13 and a fourteenth resistor R14, wherein one end of the thirteenth resistor R13 is connected to a connection point of the eleventh resistor R11 and the non-inverting input terminal of the sampling and operational amplifier U5, the other end of the thirteenth resistor R13 is connected to the reference ground, one end of the fourteenth resistor R14 is connected to a connection point of the twelfth resistor R12 and the inverting input terminal of the sampling and operational amplifier U5, and the other end of the fourteenth resistor R14 is connected to the output terminal of the sampling and operational amplifier U5. By adjusting the resistance values of the eleventh resistor R11, the twelfth resistor R12, the thirteenth resistor R13 and the fourteenth resistor R14, the output voltage of the sampling operational amplifier U5 can be adjusted, so that the voltage output amplitude of the sampling output end is adjusted, and the voltage output amplitude is matched with the voltage of the constant voltage port V0 conveniently.
In an embodiment, referring to fig. 2, the first voltage regulating circuit 200 includes a first switching device Q1 and a first oscillating circuit, the first switching device Q1 includes a first terminal connected to a dc source, a second terminal connected to a ground reference, and a third terminal for controlled switching of the first switching device Q1, the first oscillating circuit is connected in parallel with the first switching device Q1, and a voltage output terminal of the first oscillating circuit is connected to the first voltage regulating output terminal. The second voltage regulating circuit 300 comprises a second switching device Q2 and a second oscillating circuit, the second switching device Q2 comprises a second end connected with a direct current source, a second end connected with a reference ground and a third end used for being controlled to open and close the second switching device Q2, the third end is connected with a second voltage regulating receiving end, the second oscillating circuit is connected with the second switching device Q2 in parallel, and the voltage output end of the second oscillating circuit is connected with the second voltage regulating output end.
The first switching device Q1 and the second switching device Q2 of the present embodiment have a function of controlled on and off, the voltage regulation device can be selected from switching devices such as a triode, an MOS tube and the like, in order to realize voltage regulation, the first voltage regulation signal and the second voltage regulation signal are both PWM signals, by outputting the first reference voltage VrefA and the second reference voltage VrefB through the first oscillation circuit and the second oscillation circuit, it is apparent that the duty ratios of the first voltage regulation signal and the second voltage regulation signal are controlled, the magnitudes of the first reference voltage VrefA and the second reference voltage VrefB may be changed, for example, the dc source is 3V, then at a duty cycle of 0, the first reference voltage VrefA and the second reference voltage VrefB are both 3V, when the duty ratio is 1, the first reference voltage VrefA and the second reference voltage VrefB are both 0, and when the duty ratio is between 0 and 1, the first reference voltage VrefA and the second reference voltage VrefB are between 3V and 0. It is noted that, since the comparison circuit is to compare the positive voltage and the negative voltage, the first reference voltage VrefA is larger than the second reference voltage VrefB, that is, the PWM waveform of the first voltage regulation signal is different from the PWM waveform of the second voltage regulation signal.
The first oscillation circuit and the second oscillation circuit have various embodiments, for example, the first oscillation circuit includes a first resistor R1 and a first capacitor C1, a first end of a first switching device Q1, a first resistor R1, a first capacitor C1 and a reference ground are sequentially connected, a connection point between the first resistor R1 and the first capacitor C1 is connected to a first voltage regulation output terminal, the second oscillation circuit includes a second resistor R2 and a second capacitor C2, a second end of a second switching device Q2, a second resistor R2, a second capacitor C2 and the reference ground are sequentially connected, and a connection point between the second resistor R2 and the second capacitor C2 is connected to the second voltage regulation output terminal; for another example, the first oscillation circuit and the second oscillation circuit adopt LC circuits, and the voltage regulation function may also be realized based on the PWM signal, which is not described herein again.
Although the first voltage regulating circuit 200 and the second voltage regulating circuit 300 of the above embodiment adopt the same circuit connection manner, they are independently arranged, that is, when the first voltage regulating circuit 200 adopts the above circuit structure, the second voltage regulating circuit 300 can adopt different circuit structures for voltage regulation, for example, the second voltage regulating circuit 300 can adopt an electronic digital rheostat for voltage regulation, a plurality of resistors are connected in series inside the electronic digital rheostat, a switch is led out at a connection point between the two resistors, and the total resistance value on a series branch can be adjusted by opening and closing the switches, thereby realizing voltage regulation; similarly, in the case that the second voltage regulating circuit 300 adopts the above circuit structure, the first voltage regulating circuit 200 may adopt different circuit structures for voltage regulation; the voltage regulation is realized in many ways, which are not listed here. It can be understood that the reference voltage can be continuously adjusted by adopting the PWM signal for voltage regulation, and compared with a step-by-step adjustable voltage regulation mode, the precision of the overcurrent detection circuit can be improved.
Based on the above embodiment, referring to fig. 2, the first voltage regulating circuit 200 further includes a first voltage follower U1, and a connection point of the first resistor R1 and the first capacitor C1 is connected to the first voltage regulating output terminal through the first voltage follower U1. The second voltage regulating circuit 300 further comprises a second voltage follower U2, and a connection point of the second resistor R2 and the second capacitor C2 is connected to the second voltage regulating output terminal through the second voltage follower U2. Since the PWM signals for voltage regulation in the first voltage regulating circuit 200 and the second voltage regulating circuit 300 are irrelevant to the circuit of the protection object, in order to isolate signal interference, a voltage follower is used for isolation, and output values of the first reference voltage VrefA and the second reference voltage VrefB are stabilized at the same time.
The following explains the working mode of the over-current detection circuit under the dc sampling by taking the sampling voltage as the dc voltage as an example: the voltage of the sampling output end is direct-current voltage, namely Vout is always greater than 0, then the sampling output end is simultaneously added to the inverting input end of the first comparator U3 through a ninth resistor R9 and a constant-voltage port V0 through a tenth resistor R10, because the constant-voltage port V0 is constant-voltage, the voltage of a point P is positively correlated with the voltage of the sampling input end, a first voltage-regulating signal is set to regulate a first reference voltage VrefA, and the first reference voltage VrefA is not higher than the highest voltage allowed by the point P in a normal working state; when the circuit of the protection object is in a normal working state, the voltage of the inverting input end of the first comparator U3 is not higher than the voltage of the non-inverting input end, therefore, the first comparator U3 outputs a high level, the controller 400 judges that the circuit works normally when receiving a high level signal, when the circuit of the protection object is abnormal, the voltage of the inverting input end of the first comparator U3 is higher than the voltage of the non-inverting input end, the first comparator U3 outputs a low level, and the controller 400 judges that the circuit is abnormal through the low level and makes a protection action.
It can be understood that, since the dc sampling only needs to sample a single voltage point in the dc line, the sampling circuit 100 can only access the circuit with one sampling input terminal, and the second comparator U4 in the comparator circuit does not need to perform the comparison, the second comparator U4 can be bypassed, or the second reference voltage VrefB is lowered to maintain the output high level of the second comparator U4.
The working mode of the over-current detection circuit under the dc sampling is described below by taking the sampling voltage as the ac voltage as an example: the sampling resistor R0 is connected in series in an alternating current line, the first sampling end and the second sampling end are respectively connected to two ends of the sampling resistor R0, at this time, the output end of the sampling operational amplifier U5 outputs positive voltage and negative voltage following the period of the alternating current, namely, in the positive half period of the alternating current, the sampling operational amplifier U5 outputs positive voltage, in the negative half period of the alternating current, the sampling operational amplifier U5 outputs negative voltage, taking the resistance values of the ninth resistor R9 and the tenth resistor R10 as an example, in order to make the P point voltage be greater than 0, the voltage value of the constant voltage port V0 is greater than the minimum value of the negative voltage of the sampling output end, for example, the constant voltage port V0 is a 3V constant voltage source, the resistance around the sampling operational amplifier U5 is adjusted, the minimum value of the negative voltage of the sampling output end is greater than-3V, meanwhile, the first reference voltage Vrefa is set to be greater than the second reference voltage, and the first reference voltage is slightly greater than the maximum value of the P point voltage, the second reference voltage VrefB is slightly smaller than the minimum value of the P-point voltage of the circuit for protecting the object in the normal operation state, when the circuit for protecting the object is in the normal operation state, the P-point voltage is lower than the first reference voltage VrefA and higher than the second reference voltage VrefB in the positive half period of the alternating current, the first comparator U3 and the second comparator U4 both output a high level, and in the negative half period of the alternating current, similarly, the P-point voltage is lower than the first reference voltage VrefA and higher than the second reference voltage VrefB, the first comparator U3 and the second comparator U4 both output a high level, and at this time, the controller 400 determines that the circuit is operating normally when receiving a high level signal; when the circuit of the protection object is abnormal, the voltage at the point P is higher than the first reference voltage VrefA in the positive half period of the alternating current, the first comparator U3 outputs a low level, or the voltage at the point P is lower than the second reference voltage VrefB in the negative half period of the alternating current, the second comparator U4 outputs a low level, and the controller 400 judges the circuit is abnormal by the low level and performs a protection action.
The overcurrent detection circuit provided by the embodiment of the invention can be applied no matter whether the sampled voltage is direct current voltage or alternating current voltage; on the other hand, since the first reference voltage VrefA and the second reference voltage VrefB can both change the voltage value by voltage regulation on the premise of not replacing components, the voltage value has good adaptability to the situation that the overcurrent threshold value changes due to the switching of the circuit in the frequency conversion equipment, for example, when the circuit in the frequency conversion equipment is switched, the controller 400 obtains the circuit corresponding to the switched circuit, and changes the first voltage regulation signal and the second voltage regulation signal according to the preset overcurrent threshold value of the switched circuit, so that the first reference voltage VrefA and the second reference voltage VrefB change to adapt to the switched circuit.
