Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, but not all, embodiments of the present application. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.
It is also to be understood that the terminology used in the description of the present application herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the application. As used in the specification of the present application and the appended claims, the singular forms "a," "an," and "the" are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.
It should be further understood that the term "and/or" as used in this specification and the appended claims refers to and includes any and all possible combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.
The flow diagrams depicted in the figures are merely illustrative and do not necessarily include all of the elements and operations/steps, nor do they necessarily have to be performed in the order depicted. For example, some operations/steps may be decomposed, combined or partially combined, so that the actual execution sequence may be changed according to the actual situation.
At present, a channel switch of a charger is generally formed by connecting two field effect transistors (MOS transistors) back to back, and the back-to-back MOS transistors cannot be directly driven by a Micro Control Unit (MCU), and a special driving IC or an optical coupler is required to be used for driving, such as a charger of a large-scale agricultural unmanned aerial vehicle, an industrial multi-power system, or an industrial lithium battery charging and discharging cabinet.
For the charger of the large-scale agricultural unmanned aerial vehicle, because the lithium battery of the large-scale agricultural unmanned aerial vehicle has larger charging and discharging current, if the response time (the time corresponding to the on or off) of the MOS tube is too long, the MOS tube is in a linear region for a long time, so that the MOS tube is heated and damaged, and even the danger of tube explosion can occur.
For industrial multi-power supply systems, it is generally required that the multi-power supply system can stably operate for a long time, and it is generally required that the multi-power supply system can be uninterrupted. The multi-power system is generally powered by a plurality of power sources, and different power sources are connected in parallel through channel switches (back-to-back connected MOS tubes). When a multi-power-supply system works normally, only one power supply is used for supplying power, when the power supply stops outputting due to some external factors, a standby power supply needs to be started immediately, the higher requirement is provided for the switching-on speed (response time) of a channel switch, the faster the switching-on speed of an MOS (metal oxide semiconductor) tube is, the more the system stability can be kept, otherwise, the MOS tube is heated and damaged, and even the danger of tube explosion can occur.
For an industrial lithium battery charging and discharging cabinet, because the industrial lithium battery charging and discharging cabinet needs to charge and discharge multiple lithium batteries simultaneously, a power supply of one path often has a design with multiple output channels, and the multiple output channels all comprise channel switches (MOS (metal oxide semiconductor) tubes connected back to back). Because the industrial lithium battery charging and discharging cabinet needs to charge and discharge different lithium batteries, the driving of the industrial lithium battery charging and discharging cabinet needs to be isolated, and then if a battery with larger capacity is charged and discharged, the switching speed is also needed to be higher, otherwise, the MOS tube is damaged because the MOS tube is heated in a linear region for a long time.
However, the MOS transistor of the channel switch is generally driven by an application specific integrated IC or by an optocoupler. The application of the special integrated IC is limited, different special integrated ICs are required to be adopted for driving different MOS transistors, the special integrated IC is generally high in cost and expensive in price, few in alternatives and prone to shortage of supply, and the special integrated IC is high in integration level, so that when some integrated ICs are failed, debugging and maintenance difficulty is high. The driving mode of the optical coupler is adopted, the driving capability of the optical coupler is weak, the purpose of rapidly switching the MOS tube cannot be realized, and the MOS tube often encounters the problem of tube explosion due to being in a linear region in the switching process.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic circuit structure diagram of a charger according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The charger 100 includes a channel switch 10, a main control circuit 11, a power interface 12, and a battery interface 13. The power interface 12 is used for connecting a charging power source, and the battery interface 13 is used for connecting a battery.
The channel switch 10 includes two MOS transistors coupled back to back, the channel switch 10 is connected between the power interface 12 and the battery interface 13, and the optical coupler 14 is connected between the main control circuit 11 and the channel switch 10, that is, a driving method of the optical coupler is adopted. In particular, the corresponding driving principle is as follows:
the main control circuit 11 outputs a control signal, such as a high level V1, to the optical coupler 14, the optical coupler 14 receives the high level V1 to turn on and outputs a driving signal to the gate of the MOS transistor of the channel switch 10, where the driving signal is, for example, a high level V2, and the gate of the MOS transistor receives the high level V2 to turn on, so as to charge the battery; the main control circuit 11 outputs a control signal, such as a low level V3, to the optical coupler 14, the optical coupler 14 is turned off, and outputs a low level driving signal, such as a low level V4, to the gate of the MOS transistor of the channel switch 10, and the MOS transistor of the channel switch is turned off to stop charging the battery.
Based on the driving method of the optocoupler provided in fig. 1, the inventor selects two MOS transistors for simulation, the voltage of the high-level driving signal selected by simulation is 12V, the voltage of the low-level driving signal is 0V, the voltage of the charging power supply is 60V, and the simulation results are shown in fig. 2a and fig. 2b, where fig. 2a is the simulation result when the channel switch is turned on, and the response time (i.e., the on-time) corresponding to the turn-on of the channel switch is found to be about 7.2419 μ s from the simulation result; fig. 2b shows the simulation result when the channel switch is turned off, and it is found from the simulation result that the response time (i.e. turn-off time) corresponding to the turn-off of the channel switch is about 833.71 μ s. Therefore, the conventional driving mode of the optical coupler causes the response time of the MOS tube of the channel switch to be longer, further causes the MOS tube to generate heat, and causes the problem of tube explosion in serious cases.
In fig. 2a and 2b, V _ R6 represents the amount of time that the battery changes over time when the channel switch is turned on or off; v1 represents the level change of the drive signal, corresponding to 12V and 0V; m1_ Vgs represents the amount of voltage change of the channel switch when it is turned on or off.
Therefore, embodiments of the present application provide a driving circuit of a channel switch, a charging control method, and a charger to solve the above problems. The drive circuit of the channel switch can be applied to a charger, and the charging control method is also applied to the charger to adjust the response time of the channel switch so as to ensure the safety of the battery during charging. Under the scene of charging such as heavy current such as agricultural unmanned aerial vehicle, can use the heavy current to charge to the battery, use this drive circuit when improving charge efficiency, security and reliability when can also improving to charge.
Some embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below and the features of the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.
Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a schematic block diagram of a circuit structure of a charger according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The charger 100 includes a channel switch 10, a main control circuit 11, a power interface 12, a battery interface 13, and a driving circuit 20. The power interface 12 is used for connecting a charging power source, and the battery interface 13 is used for connecting a battery.
The channel switch 10 includes two MOS transistors coupled back to back, the channel switch 10 is connected between the power interface 12 and the battery interface 13, and the driving circuit 20 is connected between the main control circuit 11 and the channel switch 10, and is configured to receive a control signal from the main control circuit 11 and drive the channel switch 10 to turn on or off according to the control signal, so as to charge the battery or stop charging.
Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a schematic circuit structure diagram of a driving circuit of a channel switch according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 4, the driving circuit 20 includes: an isolation circuit 21, a regulation circuit 22, and a push-pull circuit 23.
The isolation circuit 21 is configured to receive a control signal, specifically, to receive a control signal sent by the main control circuit 11, where the control signal includes a switch on signal or a switch off signal, the switch on signal is used to control the channel switch 10 to be turned on, such as a high level signal, which may be 3.3V for example, and the switch off signal is used to control the channel switch 10 to be turned off, such as a low level signal, which may be 0V for example.
The adjusting circuit 22 is used for adjusting the response time of the channel switch 10, and specifically is used for adjusting the response time of two MOS transistors of the channel switch 10, including the response time when the MOS transistor is turned on and the response time when the MOS transistor is turned off.
The push-pull circuit 23 is connected to the isolation circuit 21 via the regulating circuit 22, and is also connected to the channel switch 10, specifically to the gates of the two MOS transistors of the channel switch 10. And is configured to convert the preset power supply voltage VCC2 into a driving signal according to the control signal received by the isolation circuit 21, so as to drive the channel switch 10 to turn on or off according to the response time.
Specifically, when the isolation circuit 21 receives the switch conducting signal, the push-pull circuit 23 is controlled to convert the preset power supply voltage VCC2 into a driving signal, for example, the push-pull circuit 23 is controlled to be conducting to use the preset power supply voltage VCC2 as the driving signal (i.e., amplification of the control signal is achieved), and meanwhile, the response time is adjusted by the adjusting circuit 22, so that the MOS transistor of the drive channel switch 10 is conducted according to the corresponding response time, and further, the battery is charged.
In the embodiment of the present application, the predetermined power voltage VCC2 is 12V, but may have other values. In some embodiments, the predetermined power voltage VCC2 is related to different types of MOS transistors, such as MOS transistors requiring larger driving capability requiring a larger voltage of the predetermined power voltage VCC 2.
It should be noted that the power supply voltage VCC1 in fig. 4 is used as a charging power supply, for example, 60V, for charging the battery.
The driving circuit provided by the above embodiment firstly isolates the control signal through the isolation circuit, and adjusts the response time of the channel switch through the adjusting circuit, and then amplifies the control signal through the push-pull circuit to obtain the driving signal for driving the channel switch, thereby realizing the on-off of the driving channel switch, and thus avoiding the channel switch from being in a linear region for a long time, and further improving the charging safety. For a lithium battery requiring larger charging and discharging current, such as an agricultural unmanned aerial vehicle battery, the charging safety is greatly improved.
In some embodiments, the isolation circuit 21 includes a control switch, and the control switch is connected to the preset power voltage VCC2 and turned on or off according to a control signal of the main control circuit 11 to output the preset power voltage VCC2 to the push-pull circuit 23, so as to generate the driving signal. In particular, the control switch comprises an optocoupler or a transformer.
In some embodiments, to further improve the safety of the circuit, the driving circuit 20 includes: an isolated power supply module including a first isolated power supply and a second isolated power supply. Illustratively, as shown in fig. 4, the first isolated power source is VCC1, and the second isolated power source is VCC2, where the first isolated power source VCC1 is used as a charging power source to charge a battery, and the second isolated power source VCC2 is used as the preset power voltage. The isolation circuit 21 and the push-pull circuit 23 are both connected to the second isolation power source VCC2, and are configured to convert the voltage of the second isolation power source VCC2 into a driving signal according to the control signal.
In some embodiments, the first isolated power supply and the second isolated power supply are different voltages, such as 60V for the first isolated power supply and 12V for the second isolated power supply. In other embodiments, the voltage level of the second isolated power supply is related to a corresponding parameter of the fet of the channel switch, and specifically related to the response time of the fet, for example, if the response time of the fet is longer, the corresponding voltage is larger, and thus the voltage level is used to adjust the response time of the channel switch. For a lithium battery requiring larger charging and discharging current, such as an agricultural unmanned aerial vehicle battery, the charging safety is greatly improved.
Although the isolation power supply can improve the safety of the circuit, the isolation power supply is high in price and long in purchase period, and the isolation power supply is large in size, needs to occupy a large PCB area, is limited in height space, and is inconvenient for PCB layout and element placement, so that the isolation power supply is not beneficial to product design and miniaturization.
In view of this, the embodiments of the present application also provide an alternative solution. Specifically, as shown in fig. 5, fig. 5 is a schematic circuit structure diagram of an isolated power supply module according to an embodiment of the present application. The isolated power supply module 110 has a power input terminal Vin and a power output terminal Vout, and the isolated power supply module 110 includes a charge pump circuit 111, wherein the power input terminal Vin is connected to the power output terminal Vout through the charge pump circuit 111. The power input terminal Vin is connected to a voltage source VCC for receiving an input voltage, and the input voltage provided by the voltage source VCC is, for example, 12V. The power output terminal Vout is used for outputting an output voltage, and the charge pump circuit 111 is used for isolating the output voltage from the input voltage. The term "isolated" means that there is no direct electrical connection between the input and output circuits of the power supply, and there is no current circuit between the input and output in an insulated high-impedance state.
Fig. 6 discloses a schematic diagram of the operation of a charge pump circuit. As shown in fig. 6, the charge pump circuit comprises a pumping capacitor Cp and an output capacitor Cout, and the pumping capacitor Cp can be charged by the input voltage Uin when the switches K1, K3 are simultaneously turned on by the pumping capacitor Cp as an intermediate transfer station of charge. When the switches K1 and K3 are turned off and the switches K2 and K4 are turned on, the pumping capacitor Cp is connected in parallel with the output capacitor Cout, the pumping capacitor Cp discharges, and the charge of the pumping capacitor Cp is transferred to the output capacitor Cout, thereby outputting an output voltage Uout. In order to stabilize the input voltage Uin, the charge pump circuit further comprises an input capacitance Cin.
The embodiment of the application designs the isolation power module 110 by using the charge transfer principle of the pumping capacitor Cp of the charge pump circuit 111, so that the isolation power module is suitable for a high-end MOS drive circuit.
It should be noted that the first isolated power supply and the second isolated power supply provided in the above embodiments may both adopt the isolated power supply module provided in fig. 5.
Referring to fig. 4 and fig. 5, for example, taking the second isolation power VCC2 as an example, the control switch is electrically connected to the power output terminal Vout of the isolation power module 110 and receives a control signal of the main control circuit. The channel switch 10 is connected with the control switch through the push-pull circuit 23 and the adjusting circuit, and the channel switch 10 is connected to the battery, the channel switch 10 is used for being switched on and off under the control of the control switch to control whether the battery is charged or not.
It should be noted that the first isolated power source VCC1 may also be the isolated power source module provided in fig. 5, and the connection mode and operation principle thereof refer to the second isolated power source VCC 2.
When the control switch is closed based on the control signal, the active channel switch 10 of the push-pull circuit 23 is turned on under the trigger of the output voltage outputted by the isolation power supply module 110, thereby charging the battery.
The drive circuit of the embodiment of the application utilizes the charge pump circuit 111 to design the isolation power supply module 110, and output isolated output voltage is realized, so that high material cost for purchasing an isolation power supply can be saved.
In one embodiment, the output voltage may be equal to the input voltage. Of course, in other embodiments, the output voltage may be greater than the input voltage, and the charge pump circuit 111 may provide a multiplied output voltage.
Fig. 7 discloses a circuit structure diagram of the charge pump circuit 111 according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 7, the charge pump circuit 111 includes a pumping capacitor Cp, an output capacitor Cout connected to the power output terminal Vout, a first switch module 112, and a second switch module 113.
When the first switch module 112 is closed, the voltage source VCC is connected to both ends of the pumping capacitor Cp, and the input voltage charges the pumping capacitor Cp. When the first switch module 112 is turned off and the second switch module 113 is turned on, the pumping capacitor Cp is connected in parallel with the output capacitor Cout, and the pumping capacitor Cp charges the output capacitor Cout.
In some embodiments, the charge pump circuit 111 further comprises an input capacitor Cin connected to the power supply input Vin. The input capacitance Cin is in parallel with the pumping capacitance Cp when the first switching module 112 is closed. The input capacitance Cin may be used to stabilize the input voltage. When the voltage alternates, the voltage at the two ends of the input capacitor Cin can not change suddenly due to the charging action of the input capacitor Cin, so that the stability of the input voltage is ensured.
