Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, but not all, embodiments of the present invention. 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 invention.
Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a fault detection circuit employing high-side or low-side current sampling. Referring to fig. 1, in the prior art, a sampling resistor RSENSE is mostly used to sample high-side or low-side current, and then an operational amplifier is used to amplify the signal, which is provided to a main control chip for reading and analyzing. High-precision sampling resistors are required by adopting a high-end or low-end current sampling scheme, and peripheral devices of the operational amplifier also need higher precision requirements. And each sampling unit needs one operational amplifier and one ADC sampling channel, so the cost of the whole scheme is high.
In view of this, an embodiment of the present invention provides a car light fault detection system, and fig. 2 is a schematic structural diagram of the car light fault detection system according to the embodiment of the present invention. Referring to fig. 2, the car light fault detection system includes M signal isolation modules 260, a state signal processing module 220 and a main control unit 230, wherein the signal isolation modules 260 correspond to the LED modules one to one;
the nth LED module is connected to the status signal processing module 220 through the nth signal isolation module 260; wherein N is greater than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to M, and M and N are positive integers; the signal isolation module 260 is used for isolating the voltage signal output by the LED module; the state signal processing module 220 is configured to process the voltage signal and output a detection voltage signal according to the voltage signal; wherein the voltage signal comprises a negative voltage signal of the vehicle lamp;
the input end of the main control unit 230 is connected with the state signal processing module 220; the output end of the main control unit 230 is connected with the control end of the LED module; the main control unit 230 is configured to send a control enable signal to the LED module through the output terminal, and determine a fault type of the LED module according to the detection voltage signal.
Specifically, the signal isolation module 260 may unidirectionally isolate the voltage signals output by the LED modules, so as to avoid mutual influence of the voltage signals, and enable unidirectional transmission of the voltage signals output by the LED modules. Illustratively, the signal isolation module 260 may be a diode. The output ends of the first LED module 210, the second LED module 240, and up to the nth LED module 250 are respectively connected to the status signal processing module 220 through corresponding diodes, where it should be noted that the nth LED module corresponds to the LED module N in the drawing, for example, the first LED module corresponds to the LED module 1 in the drawing. The output end of the main control unit 230 is connected to the control end of each LED module, and the main control unit 230 can send a control enable signal to one LED module, so as to control the LED module to be turned on or turned off.
Illustratively, the working principle of the vehicle lamp fault detection system is as follows: the main control unit 230 sends a control enable signal to turn on the LED module to be detected, and the state signal processing module 220 receives a voltage signal output by the turned-on LED module, where the output voltage signal may include a cathode voltage signal of the vehicle lamp. After the state signal processing module 220 processes the voltage signal, a detection voltage signal less than or equal to the stable voltage can be obtained, so that the maximum detection voltage signal that the main control unit 230 can receive is the stable voltage, and the damage of the main control unit caused by the generation of large voltage and large current when the vehicle lamp fails can be effectively avoided. The main control unit 230 can determine the working state of the LED module according to the magnitude of the received detection voltage signal, wherein the working state includes normal, short-circuit or open-circuit of the LED module. And when the LED car lamp has a short-circuit fault in constant-current driving application, the working state of the LED module can still be reflected through a voltage signal of a negative electrode of the car lamp.
According to the technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the invention, the voltage signal output by the LED module is processed by the state signal processing module to obtain the detection voltage signal less than or equal to the stable voltage, so that the damage of the main control unit caused by large voltage and large current generated when the vehicle lamp breaks down can be effectively avoided. Meanwhile, the main control unit can judge the working state of the LED module according to the size of the received detection voltage signal. The state signal processing module is connected with the plurality of groups of LED modules through the corresponding signal isolation modules and then is connected with the main control unit through the output of the state signal processing module, so that the time-sharing detection of the plurality of groups of LED modules is realized, the signal input channel resource of the main control unit is saved, the hardware cost is reduced, and the problem of detection blind spots is solved.
Fig. 3 is a schematic structural diagram of a status signal processing module according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to fig. 3, the status signal processing module 220 includes a voltage dividing circuit, a zener diode 130, and a filter circuit 140;
the input end of the voltage division circuit is connected with the output end of the signal isolation module, and the voltage division circuit is used for dividing the voltage signal output by the LED module and outputting the divided voltage signal from the output end of the voltage division circuit;
the cathode of the voltage stabilizing diode 130 is connected with the output end of the voltage dividing circuit, and the anode of the voltage stabilizing diode 130 is grounded; the voltage stabilizing diode 130 is used for stabilizing a voltage and dividing a voltage signal, and if the voltage dividing signal is smaller than the voltage stabilizing voltage of the voltage stabilizing diode 130, the voltage dividing signal is output; and outputting the regulated voltage if the divided voltage signal is greater than the regulated voltage of the regulator diode 130.
The filter circuit 140 is connected in parallel with the zener diode 130; the main control unit 230 is connected to an output terminal of the voltage dividing circuit 120.
Specifically, the voltage divider circuit includes a first voltage divider circuit 120 and a second voltage divider circuit 160, wherein an input end of the first voltage divider circuit 120 is an input end of the voltage divider circuit, and an output end of the second voltage divider circuit 160 is an output end of the voltage divider circuit. The input terminal of the first voltage divider circuit 120 is connected to the output terminal of the signal isolation module, and the output terminal of the second voltage divider circuit 160 is connected to the main control unit. After voltage signals output by the LED modules pass through the signal isolation module, the voltage signals are divided by the first voltage dividing circuit 120 and the second voltage dividing circuit 160 and stabilized by the zener diode 130, and then are filtered by the filter circuit 140 to be provided to the signal input channel of the main control unit 230, wherein the signal input channel may be an ADC sampling unit of the main control unit 230, and the voltage stabilizing voltage of the zener diode 130 may be selected according to the actual situation. After sampling by the ADC sampling unit, the main control unit 230 reads and analyzes the sampling voltage VADC of the ADC sampling unit. For example, the working principle of the state signal processing module 220 is that if the LED module has an open-circuit fault, the voltage of the cathode of the car light is zero, and the voltage signal output by the LED module is zero, at this time, the ADC sampling unit of the main control unit is directly grounded through the second voltage division circuit 160, so that the sampled voltage VADC voltage signal at the open-circuit time is zero. If the LED module is short-circuited, the cathode voltage of the car lamp is the power voltage, the voltage signal output by the LED module is the power voltage minus the loss voltage drop of the devices on the circuit, and at this time, the voltage divided by the first voltage dividing circuit 120 and the second voltage dividing circuit 160 is greater than the regulated voltage of the zener diode 130, so that the sampling voltage VADC of the ADC sampling unit of the main control unit 230 is the regulated voltage of the zener diode 130 when the LED module is short-circuited. The open circuit or short circuit state of the vehicle lamp can be judged according to the magnitude of the sampled voltage VADC.

The first end of the first divider resistor R11 is connected with the LED module, and the second end of the first divider resistor R11 is connected with the cathode of the Zener diode Z1. The second voltage divider resistor R12 is connected in parallel with the zener diode Z1.
Specifically, the voltage signal output by the LED module is divided by the first voltage dividing resistor R11 and the second voltage dividing resistor R12, if the vehicle lamp of the LED module is working normally, the divided voltage is smaller than the regulated voltage of the zener diode Z1, and the sampling voltage VADC of the ADC sampling unit 410 of the main control unit is the divided voltage; if the car lamp of the LED module has an open-circuit fault, the voltage signal output by the LED module is zero, the first voltage dividing resistor R11 has no voltage input, and the ADC sampling unit 410 of the main control unit is directly grounded through the second voltage dividing resistor R12, so that the sampling voltage VADC voltage signal is zero when the car lamp is open-circuit; if the vehicle lamp of the LED module has a short-circuit fault, the divided voltage is greater than the regulated voltage of the zener diode Z1, and the sampled voltage VADC of the ADC sampling unit 410 of the main control unit is the regulated voltage of the zener diode Z1. The main control unit samples the voltage VADC signal through the ADC sampling unit 410, and reads and analyzes the voltage VADC signal to obtain the fault type of the LED module car light. After voltage division by the voltage division circuit and voltage stabilization by the voltage stabilizing diode, the maximum sampling voltage VADC of the main control unit is the voltage stabilizing voltage of the voltage stabilizing diode, and the problem that the main control unit is damaged due to overlarge voltage or current caused by open circuit or short circuit of the car lamp can be effectively solved.
With continued reference to fig. 4, optionally, the filter circuit includes a capacitor C1, the capacitor C1 being connected in parallel with the zener diode Z1. Specifically, electromagnetic interference can be filtered through the capacitor C1, so that the deformation of the acquired signal voltage wave is stable, and the signal filtering and anti-interference effects are achieved.

The first end of the third current limiting resistor R8 is connected to the collector of the second NPN transistor Q4. The second end of the third current limiting resistor R8 and the first end of the third protection resistor R7 are both connected with the base of a second PNP type triode Q3. The second end of the third protection resistor R7 is connected with the cathode of the second LED vehicle lamp. The second end of the third protective resistor R7 and the negative electrode of the second LED vehicle lamp are both connected with the emitter of a second PNP type triode Q3. The collector of the second PNP transistor Q3 is connected to a corresponding signal isolation module, which may be a second diode D2. The second electronic switch module is switched on or switched off according to a second control enabling signal sent by the main control unit.
The third protection resistor R7, the third current limiting resistor R8, the fourth current limiting resistor R9 and the fourth protection resistor R10 play a role in current limiting protection of the second PNP triode Q3 and the second NPN triode Q4. When the second control enable signal sent by the main control unit is at a high level, the second NPN triode Q4 is driven to be turned on, and the second LED driver 580 starts to drive the vehicle lamp to operate, so that the turn-on voltage of the second NPN triode Q4 is approximately zero. At this time, the base of the second PNP triode Q3 is at a low level, when the second LED vehicle lamp works normally, the cathode voltage of the second LED vehicle lamp can drive the second PNP triode Q3 to be turned on, and the turn-on voltage VEC of the second PNP triode Q3 is also approximately zero. The second PNP transistor Q3 and the second NPN transistor Q4 act as a lossless electronic switch. The second NPN transistor Q4 is turned off when the second control enable signal sent by the main control unit is low, and the second PNP transistor Q3 cannot be turned on at this time. Whether the detection car light breaks down or not is finished simultaneously when the car light starts to work, and the detection efficiency and the detection real-time performance are improved.
Illustratively, the electric vehicle lamp fault detection circuit theory of operation does: if the supply voltage VIN + of the system is 12V, the rated voltage of the first LED lamp 530 and the second LED lamp 560 is 9V. The conduction voltage drops of the first diode D1 and the second diode D2 are both marked as VD and are the same voltage drop, the voltage division coefficient of the first voltage division resistor R11 and the second voltage division resistor R12 is 0.5, the voltage stabilization voltage VZ of the voltage stabilization diode Z1 is 3.3V, and the driving mode of the LED vehicle lamp adopts constant current driving. When the first LED vehicle lamp 530 normally operates, the cathode voltage of the first LED vehicle lamp is 12-9 to 3V, the on-state voltage of the first PNP triode Q1 is negligible, the voltage after passing through the first diode D1 is (3-VD) V, the sampling voltage VADC after voltage division by the first voltage dividing resistor R11 and the second voltage dividing resistor R12 is (3-VD) × 0.5, and the sampling voltage VADC at this time is smaller than the regulated voltage VZ, so that the sampling voltage VADC of the ADC sampling unit 410 of the main control unit is smaller than the regulated voltage VZ when the first LED vehicle lamp 530 is normal. If the first LED lamp 530 is open-circuited, the voltage of the cathode of the first LED lamp 530 is zero, the first PNP transistor Q1 cannot be turned on, the first diode D1 is in a cut-off state, and the ADC sampling unit 410 of the main control unit is directly grounded through the second voltage-dividing resistor R12, so that the sampling voltage VADC when the first LED lamp 530 is open-circuited is zero. If the first LED lamp 530 is short-circuited, the voltage of the cathode of the first LED lamp 530 is 12V, the on-state voltage of the first PNP triode Q1 is negligible, the voltage after passing through the first diode D1 is (12-VD) V, the voltage after passing through the first voltage dividing resistor R11 and the second voltage dividing resistor R12 is (12-VD) × 0.5 > regulated voltage VZ, and the sampled voltage is regulated by the regulated diode Z1 by 3.3V. Therefore, the sampled voltage VADC of the ADC sampling unit 410 of the main control unit when the first LED car lamp 530 is short-circuited is 3.3V equal to the regulated voltage of the zener diode Z1. The fault type of the first LED lamp 530 can be determined by sampling the voltage VADC in each operating state of the first LED lamp 530. The failure detection operation principle of the second LED lamp 560 is the same as that described above, and will not be described herein again. According to the technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the invention, the fault detection function of the LED car lamp can be realized only by using a common device, and a high-cost and high-precision sampling device is not required. Thereby effectively reducing the hardware cost. The application scenario of multi-lamp fault detection can be extended according to the detection requirement.

Specifically, after voltage signals output by the LED module pass through the signal isolation module, the voltage signals are subjected to voltage division by the voltage division circuit and are stabilized by the voltage stabilizing diode, then the voltage signals are subjected to signal filtering by the filter circuit and are provided for a signal input channel of the main control unit to be sampled by the ADC sampling unit, and the main control unit reads and analyzes sampling voltage VADC of the ADC sampling unit. The voltage stabilizing voltage of the voltage stabilizing diode can be selected according to the actual situation, the voltage signal output by the LED module is divided by the voltage dividing circuit, the divided voltage is smaller than the voltage stabilizing voltage of the voltage stabilizing diode, and the detection voltage signal output by the state signal processing module is the divided voltage; when the divided voltage is zero, the detection voltage signal output by the state signal processing module is zero; the divided voltage is larger than the stabilized voltage of the voltage stabilizing diode, and the detection voltage signal output by the state signal processing module is the stabilized voltage.

Specifically, if the LED module has an open-circuit fault, the voltage of the cathode of the car light is zero, the voltage signal output by the LED module is zero, and at this time, the ADC sampling unit of the main control unit is directly grounded through the voltage dividing circuit, so that the voltage signal of the sampling voltage VADC is zero when the LED module is open-circuit. If the LED module is in short circuit, the cathode voltage of the car lamp is the power supply voltage, the voltage signal output by the LED module is the power supply voltage minus loss voltage drop, and the voltage divided by the voltage dividing circuit is greater than the regulated voltage of the voltage stabilizing diode, so that the sampling voltage VADC of the ADC sampling unit of the main control unit is the regulated voltage of the voltage stabilizing diode when the LED module is in short circuit.
