Detailed Description
Exemplary embodiments of the present application will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. While exemplary embodiments of the present application are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present application may be embodied in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the disclosure to those skilled in the art.
The idea of the application is that: aiming at the current situation that the acquisition precision of the ADC is not high, the reference voltage switching circuit of the ADC is formed by the comparison circuit and the voltage switching circuit, so that the corresponding reference voltage can be provided for the ADC according to the voltage of the analog input signal, the reference voltage of the ADC is more matched with the voltage of the analog input signal, and the acquisition precision of the ADC is improved; meanwhile, the main chip can start corresponding configuration on the reference voltage of the ADC according to the output result of the comparison circuit, and configures the reference voltage of the ADC as the voltage of the reference voltage input end, so that the reference voltage configured by the software of the main chip and the hardware switching reference voltage of the voltage switching circuit are kept synchronous, and the problem that the configuration of the reference voltage of the ADC is not updated by the main chip due to the fact that only the hardware switches the reference voltage of the ADC is solved.
FIG. 1 shows a schematic diagram of an ADC reference voltage switching circuit according to an embodiment of the present application; the ADC reference voltage switching circuit comprises a voltage comparison circuit 1-1, a voltage switching circuit 1-2 and a main chip 1-3 integrated with an ADC; the voltage comparison circuit 1-1 is configured to compare a voltage of an analog input signal with one or more reference voltages to obtain comparison results of high and low levels, and output the comparison results to the voltage switching circuit 1-2 and the main chip 1-3, respectively.
The voltage switching circuit 1-2 has a function of switching two power supplies or switching multiple power supplies, and the voltage switching circuit 1-2 can switch the output voltage to a corresponding reference voltage according to the comparison result of the voltage comparing circuit 1-1 and output the output voltage to the reference voltage input end of the main chip 1-3.
The main chip 1-3 starts corresponding configuration for the reference voltage of the ADC according to the comparison result of the voltage comparison circuit 1-1, and configures the reference voltage of the ADC as the voltage of the reference voltage input end, so as to ensure the synchronism of the reference voltage configured by the main chip software and the reference voltage provided by the voltage switching circuit hardware.
As can be seen from FIG. 1, the ADC reference voltage switching circuit comprises a voltage comparison circuit 1-1, a voltage switching circuit 1-2 and a main chip 1-3 integrated with the ADC, wherein an analog input signal is input to the voltage comparison circuit 1-1, and meanwhile, the analog input signal is input to the main chip 1-3 of the ADC; the output end of the voltage comparison circuit 1-1 is respectively connected with the voltage switching circuit 1-2 and the main chip 1-3 integrated with the ADC; the output end of the voltage switching circuit 1-2 is also connected with the main chip 1-3 integrated with the ADC.
The analog signal refers to the measured temperature, pressure and the like, and is converted before being input into the voltage comparison circuit, so that a voltage value, namely the voltage of the analog input signal, is generated. The voltage comparison circuit 1-1 compares the voltage of the analog input signal with a preset reference voltage in the voltage comparison circuit 1-1, and if the voltage of the analog input signal is greater than the preset reference voltage in the voltage comparison circuit 1-1, the comparison result is a high level; if the voltage of the analog input signal is less than the preset reference voltage in the voltage comparison circuit 1-1, the comparison result is a low level. In practice, the comparison result can be represented by binary values, such as 0 for low level and 1 for high level, and the voltage comparison circuit 1-1 outputs the comparison result to the voltage switching circuit 1-2 and the main chip 1-3, respectively.
The following description will be made taking as an example a case where the comparison result of the voltage comparison circuit 1-1 is at a high level.
The voltage comparison circuit 1-1 outputs the comparison result of high level to the voltage switching circuit 1-2, the voltage switching circuit 1-2 switches to the corresponding reference voltage according to the comparison result of high level, for example, when the reference voltage has two selectable reference voltages, one is high level 220V and the other is low level 110V, and when the comparison result is high level, the voltage switching circuit 1-2 switches to high reference voltage, i.e. 220V. After the reference voltage is determined, the voltage switching circuit 1-2 outputs a 220V voltage to the reference voltage input terminal of the main chip 1-3 for use as a reference voltage of the ADC in the main chip 1-3. Meanwhile, the voltage switching circuit 1-2 outputs the comparison result of high level to the main chip 1-3, the main chip 1-3 starts corresponding configuration for the reference voltage of the ADC according to the comparison result of high voltage, and configures the reference voltage of the ADC as the voltage of the reference voltage input end, that is, 220V voltage, so that the main chip performs software configuration for the ADC reference voltage and the voltage switching circuit provides the reference voltage for the ADC on circuit hardware to achieve synchronization, thereby avoiding the problem that the reference voltage input to the main chip end is switched and the main chip does not modify the configuration of the reference voltage of the ADC.
As can be seen from the ADC reference voltage switching circuit in fig. 1, according to the magnitude of the analog input signal voltage, the present application can provide a suitable reference voltage for the reference voltage input end of the main chip, thereby greatly improving the acquisition accuracy of the ADC; meanwhile, the main chip starts corresponding configuration on the reference voltage of the ADC according to the output result of the comparison circuit, and configures the reference voltage of the ADC as the voltage of the reference voltage input end, so that the synchronism of the software configuration of the main chip on the reference voltage and the hardware switching reference voltage of the voltage switching circuit is ensured, and the acquisition precision of the ADC is further ensured.
In the ADC reference voltage switching circuit, the voltage comparison circuit 1-1 includes one or more voltage comparators, the voltage switching circuit 1-2 includes one or more single-pole double-throw analog switches, and the number of the voltage comparators is the same as that of the single-pole double-throw analog switches, and is set according to the number of the reference voltages selectable by the ADC.
For example, if the number of the reference voltages selectable by the ADC is three, two voltage comparators and two single-pole double-throw analog switches need to be provided, and if the ADC can select more reference voltages, the ADC can be implemented by adding the voltage comparators and the single-pole double-throw analog switches, where the number of the voltage comparators is the same as that of the single-pole double-throw analog switches, and both the numbers of the voltage comparators and the single-pole double-throw analog switches are one less than that of the reference voltages selectable by the ADC. Fig. 2 is a circuit diagram illustrating an ADC reference voltage switching circuit implementing two paths according to an embodiment of the present application, where the ADC reference voltage switching circuit shown in fig. 2 can implement two-path ADC reference voltage switching.

In this embodiment, there are two cases of the switching process of the ADC reference voltage, which are respectively described as follows:
IN one case, the voltage of the analog input signal ADC _ IN is less than the first reference voltage VDD 1.
In this case, the first comparator U1 outputs the comparison result as low level, and the first comparator U1 outputs the result to the enable terminal EN of the first spdt analog switch U2. At this time, the enable terminal EN of the first single-pole double-throw analog switch U2 is at a low level, the output terminal of the first single-pole double-throw analog switch U2 is connected to the normally closed contact NC thereof, and since the normally closed contact NC of the first single-pole double-throw analog switch U2 is connected to the first reference voltage VDD1 with a lower power supply voltage, the first single-pole double-throw analog switch U2 outputs the first reference voltage VDD1 to the reference voltage input terminal VREF of the main chip U3 to be used as the reference voltage of the ADC; meanwhile, the first comparator U1 outputs the comparison result of the low level to the first input/output terminal IO1 of the main chip U3, the main chip U3 starts corresponding configuration for the reference voltage of the ADC according to the low level of the first input/output terminal IO1, and configures the reference voltage of the ADC as the first reference voltage VDD1, so that the software configuration of the main chip for the reference voltage of the ADC is synchronized with the hardware switching of the voltage switching circuit for the reference voltage of the ADC.
IN another case, the voltage of the analog input signal ADC _ IN is equal to or greater than the first reference voltage VDD 1.
In this case, the first comparator U1 outputs the comparison result as high level, and the first comparator U1 outputs the result to the first single pole double throw analog switch U2. At this time, the enable terminal EN of the first single-pole double-throw analog switch U2 is at a high level, the output terminal of the first single-pole double-throw analog switch U2 is connected to the normally open contact NO, and since the normally open contact NC of the first single-pole double-throw analog switch U2 is connected to the second reference voltage VDD2 with a higher power supply voltage, the first single-pole double-throw analog switch U2 outputs the second reference voltage VDD2 to the reference voltage input terminal VREF of the main chip U3 to be used as the reference voltage of the ADC; meanwhile, the first comparator U1 outputs the comparison result of the high level to the first input/output terminal IO1 of the main chip U3, the main chip U3 starts corresponding configuration for the reference voltage of the ADC according to the high level of the first input/output terminal, and configures the reference voltage of the ADC to the second reference voltage VDD2, so that the software configuration for the reference voltage of the ADC by the main chip is synchronized with the hardware switching for the reference voltage of the ADC by the voltage switching circuit.
As can be seen from the ADC reference voltage switching circuit shown in fig. 2, the circuit can freely switch between two reference voltages according to the magnitude of the analog input signal voltage, provide a suitable reference voltage for the ADC, significantly improve the acquisition accuracy of the ADC, and the main chip can detect the level change on the IO and perform corresponding reference voltage configuration and modification on the ADC acquisition according to the level change, thereby avoiding the problem that the ADC reference voltage has been switched but the main chip does not update the ADC configuration.

The voltage comparison circuit comprises two voltage comparators which are respectively marked as a first comparator U1-1 and a second comparator U1-2; the voltage switching circuit includes two single-pole double-throw analog switches, denoted as a first single-pole double-throw analog switch U2-1 and a second single-pole double-throw analog switch U2-2, respectively.
The positive input end of a first comparator U1-1 is connected with an analog input signal ADC _ IN, the negative input end of the first comparator U1-1 is connected with a first reference voltage VDD1, and the output end OUT1 of the first comparator VDD1 is respectively connected with the enable end EN1 of a first single-pole double-throw analog switch U2-1 and the first input/output end IO1 of a main chip U3; the positive input end of the second comparator U1-2 is connected with the analog input signal ADC _ IN, the negative input end of the second comparator U1-2 is connected with the second reference voltage VDD2, and the output end OUT2 of the second comparator U U U1-2 is respectively connected with the enable end EN2 of the second single-pole double-throw analog switch U2-2 and the second input/output end IO2 of the main chip U3.
A normally open contact NO1 of the first single-pole double-throw analog switch U2-1 is connected with a second reference voltage VDD2, a normally closed contact NC1 of the first single-pole double-throw analog switch U2-1 is connected with a first reference voltage VDD1, and an output end VDD _ REF12 of the first single-pole double-throw analog switch U2-1 is connected with a normally closed contact NC2 of the second single-pole double-throw analog switch U2-2; the normally open contact NO2 of the second single-pole double-throw analog switch U2-2 is connected with a third reference voltage VDD3, and the output end VDD _ REF of the second single-pole double-throw analog switch U2-2 is connected with the reference voltage input end VREF of the main chip U3.
In this embodiment, there are three cases of switching the ADC reference voltage, which are described as follows:
IN the first case, the voltage of the analog input signal ADC _ IN is less than the first reference voltage VDD 1.
In the first case, both the first comparator U1-1 and the second comparator U1-2 output a low level. At this time, the output terminal of the first single-pole double-throw analog switch U2-1 is connected to the normally closed contact NC1, and since the normally closed contact NC1 of the first single-pole double-throw analog switch U2-1 is connected to the first reference voltage VDD1 having a lower power supply voltage, the output terminal VDD _ REF12 of the first single-pole double-throw analog switch U2-1 outputs the first reference voltage VDD1 to the normally closed contact NC2 of the second single-pole double-throw analog switch U2-2. And the output terminal COM2 of the second single-pole double-throw analog switch U2-2 is connected to the normally closed contact NC2 when the second comparator U1-2 outputs a low level, so that the second single-pole double-throw analog switch U2-2 outputs the first reference voltage VDD1 to the reference voltage input terminal VREF of the main chip U3, and is used as the reference voltage of the ADC.
Meanwhile, the first comparator U1-1 outputs the comparison result of low level to the first input/output end IO1 of the main chip U3, the second comparator U1-2 also outputs the comparison result of low level to the second input/output end IO2 of the main chip U3, and the main chip U3 configures the reference voltage of the ADC as the first reference voltage VDD1 according to the low level of the first input/output end IO1 and the low level of the second input/output end IO2, so that the software configuration of the main chip to the reference voltage of the ADC is synchronous with the hardware switching of the voltage switching circuit to the reference voltage of the ADC.
IN the second case, the voltage of the analog input signal ADC _ IN is equal to or greater than the first reference voltage VDD1 and less than the second reference voltage VDD 2.
In the second case, the first comparator U1-1 outputs a high level and the second comparator U1-2 outputs a low level. The output end VDD _ REF12 of the first single-pole double-throw analog switch U2-1 is connected to a normally open contact NO1, and since the normally open contact NO1 of the first single-pole double-throw analog switch U2-1 is connected with the second reference voltage VDD2, the first single-pole double-throw analog switch U2-1 outputs the second reference voltage VDD2 to a normally closed contact NC2 of the second single-pole double-throw analog switch U2-2. And since the output terminal COM2 of the second single pole double throw analog switch U2-2 is connected to the normally closed contact NC2 when the output result of the second comparator U1-2 is low level, the second single pole double throw analog switch U2-2 outputs the second reference voltage VDD2 to the reference voltage input terminal VREF of the main chip U3 for use as the reference voltage of the ADC.
Meanwhile, the first comparator U1-1 outputs the comparison result of high level to the first input/output end IO1 of the main chip U3, the second comparator U1-2 outputs the comparison result of low level to the second input/output end IO2 of the main chip U3, and the main chip U3 configures the reference voltage of the ADC as the second reference voltage VDD2 according to the high level of the first input/output end IO1 and the low level of the second input/output end IO2, so that the software configuration of the ADC reference voltage by the main chip and the hardware switching of the ADC reference voltage by the voltage switching circuit are synchronous.
IN the third case, the voltage of the analog input signal ADC _ IN is equal to or higher than the second reference voltage VDD 2.
In the third case, the output of both the first comparator U1-1 and the second comparator U1-2 are high. The output terminal VDD _ REF12 of the first single-pole double-throw analog switch U2-1 is connected to the normally open contact NO1, and the second reference voltage VDD2 is output to the normally closed contact NC2 of the second single-pole double-throw analog switch U2-2. However, since the output terminal COM2 of the second single-pole double-throw analog switch U2-2 is connected to the normally-open contact NO2, the second single-pole double-throw analog switch U2-2 outputs the third reference voltage VDD3 to the reference voltage input terminal of the main chip U3, and is used as the reference voltage of the ADC.
Meanwhile, the first comparator U1-1 outputs the comparison result of high level to the first input/output end IO1 of the main chip U3, the second comparator U1-2 also outputs the comparison result of high level to the second input/output end IO2 of the main chip U3, and the main chip U3 configures the reference voltage of the ADC as a third reference voltage VDD3 according to the high level of the first input/output end IO1 and the high level of the second input/output end IO2, so that the software configuration of the main chip to the ADC reference voltage is synchronous with the hardware switching of the voltage switching circuit to the ADC reference voltage.
As can be seen from the ADC reference voltage switching circuit shown in fig. 3, the circuit can freely switch among three reference voltages according to the magnitude of the analog input signal voltage, provide a suitable reference voltage for the ADC, significantly improve the acquisition accuracy of the ADC, and the main chip can detect the level change on the IO and perform corresponding reference voltage configuration and modification on the ADC acquisition according to the level change, thereby avoiding the problem that the ADC reference voltage has been switched but the main chip does not update the ADC configuration.
In the above, mainly from the aspect of hardware, a voltage switching process of the ADC reference voltage switching circuit is described, and in the following, from the aspect of software, a process of configuring a reference voltage for an ADC by a main chip is described, and fig. 4 illustrates a schematic flow diagram of configuring a reference voltage for a main chip corresponding to an ADC reference voltage switching circuit for implementing three paths according to an embodiment of the present application.
It can be seen from fig. 4 that the main chip configures or modifies the reference voltage of the ADC by determining the level state of each input/output terminal thereof. In this embodiment, 0 indicates that the output result of the comparator is at a low level, and 1 indicates that the output result of the comparator is at a high level. The process of configuring the reference voltage by the master chip is specifically set out below.
The main chip firstly reads a second input/output result IO2, namely a comparison result of the higher voltage comparator, judges whether IO2 is 1, if IO2 is 1, configures the ADC reference voltage to be a third reference voltage VDD3 with the highest power voltage, and at this time, the ADC reference voltage switching circuit also outputs the third reference voltage VDD3 to the voltage input end of the main chip; if IO2 is not 1, determining whether IO1 is 1, if IO1 is 1, configuring the ADC reference voltage to a second reference voltage VDD2 with a medium power voltage, and then outputting the second reference voltage VDD2 to the voltage input terminal of the main chip by the ADC reference voltage switching circuit; if IO1 is not 1, the ADC reference voltage is configured to be the first reference voltage VDD1 with the lowest power supply voltage, and the ADC reference voltage switching circuit also outputs the first reference voltage VDD1 to the voltage input terminal of the main chip.
As can be seen from fig. 4, the software configuration process of the main chip for the reference voltage can be synchronized with the hardware switching process of the voltage switching circuit for the reference voltage, so that the acquisition function and the acquisition precision of the multiple ADCs can be ensured, and the problem of insufficient acquisition precision of part of ADCs when a plurality of ADCs share one reference voltage is solved. The ADC reference voltage switching circuit of the present application is not limited to performing two-way switching or three-way switching, and may be extended to more than three-way voltage switching according to the circuit diagrams of the embodiments shown in fig. 2 and fig. 3.
In some embodiments of the present application, the ADC includes N +1 selectable reference voltages, where N is a natural number greater than or equal to 3, and power supply voltages of the N +1 selectable reference voltages sequentially increase and are respectively denoted as a first reference voltage, a second reference voltage, …, an N-1 th reference voltage, an nth reference voltage, and an N +1 th reference voltage.

Taking the nth comparator as an example, a positive input terminal of the nth comparator is connected to the analog input signal, a negative input terminal of the nth comparator is connected to the nth reference voltage, and output terminals of the nth comparator are respectively connected to an enable terminal of the nth single-pole double-throw analog switch and an nth input/output terminal of the main chip.
Taking an N-1 single-pole double-throw analog switch and an N-single-pole double-throw analog switch as examples, a normally open contact of the N-1 single-pole double-throw analog switch is connected with an N reference voltage, a normally closed contact of the N-1 single-pole double-throw analog switch is connected with an output end of an N-2 single-pole double-throw analog switch, and an output end of the N-1 single-pole double-throw analog switch is connected with a normally closed contact of the N single-pole double-throw analog switch; the normally open contact of the Nth single-pole double-throw analog switch is connected with the (N + 1) th reference voltage, and the output end of the Nth single-pole double-throw analog switch is connected with the reference voltage input end of the main chip.
In this embodiment, the switching process of the reference voltage switching circuit of the ADC includes the following situations:
