In order to ensure the control of the different loops, the on-off of the high-voltage relay in the loop needs to be controlled according to requirements.
For an electric automobile in operation, if unexpected disconnection occurs between the high-voltage relay and the high-voltage power battery, the power of the automobile is lost, and a safety problem occurs. Because the high-voltage relay is driven by the relay drive circuit, in order to solve the problems, a delay module is generally added between a processor of the relay drive circuit and the high-voltage relay, the delay module has the function of keeping the high-voltage relay closed for a period of time when the processor is reset, so that the power of a vehicle is not lost, and the control of the high-voltage relay is taken over after the processor is reset.

Detailed Description
The following describes in more detail embodiments of the present invention with reference to the schematic drawings. The advantages and features of the present invention will become more apparent from the following description. It is to be noted that the drawings are in a very simplified form and are not to precise scale, which is merely for the purpose of facilitating and distinctly claiming the embodiments of the present invention.
Example one
Fig. 1 is a circuit diagram of a drive circuit of the relay according to the present embodiment. As shown in fig. 1, the driving circuit of the relay includes a processing module 10, a delay module 20, an enabling module 30, a triggering module 40, a relay driving module 50, and a power supply module 60. In this embodiment, the relay driving circuit is used to drive a single relay 70, and the relay 70 is a single-side controlled relay.
In this embodiment, the relay 70 driven by the relay driving circuit is a high voltage relay in a Battery Management System (BMS), but not limited thereto, and the relay driving circuit may be used to drive any possible relay.
Specifically, the processing module 10 is configured to output an enable signal En to control the relay 70 to be powered on at high voltage or powered on at low voltage. In this embodiment, for convenience of description, the enable signal En output by the processing module 10 is simplified to be one signal, but it should be understood that the enable signal En output by the processing module 10 may be one or more signals, and redundant description is not repeated here.
The Delay module 20 is connected to the output end of the processing module 10, and is configured to access the enable signal En, and Delay the enable signal En, so as to output a Delay signal Delay. The Delay module 20 may be, for example, a circuit that performs Delay by using a charge-discharge effect of a capacitor, when the enable signal En is invalid, the capacitor in the Delay module 20 starts to be charged, the voltage at two ends of the capacitor starts to rise, and until the capacitor is fully charged, the Delay signal Delay output by the Delay module 20 is invalid. When the enable signal En is active; the capacitor in the Delay module 20 starts to discharge, and the voltage at two ends of the capacitor starts to decrease until the Delay signal Delay output by the Delay module 20 is valid after the discharge is completed. It can be seen that the delay module 20 can implement a function of delay output, and the delay time is the time for charging and discharging the capacitor.
The power supply module 60 is configured to provide a power supply voltage V1 for the delay module 20 to ensure that the delay module 20 works normally. As an alternative embodiment, the power supply module 60 may not only supply power to the delay module 20, but also provide a power supply voltage to the processing module 10, and the power supply voltage V1 provided to the delay module 20 may be the same as or different from the power supply voltage provided to the processing module 10, and of course, the power supply module 60 may also supply power to other modules in the driving circuit of the relay, which is not illustrated here.
The trigger module 40 is preset with a trigger condition, and the trigger module 40 may output an effective trigger signal CP according to the predetermined trigger condition. The trigger condition may be designed according to actual needs, and will be described in detail below.
The enabling module 30 is connected to the output ends of the processing module 10, the Delay module 20, and the triggering module 40, and is configured to access the enabling signal En, the Delay signal Delay, and the triggering signal CP, and output a Logic signal Logic for controlling the on/off of the relay 70 according to the enabling signal En, the Delay signal Delay, and the triggering signal CP. Specifically, the enabling module 30 may output a valid Logic signal Logic to control the relay 70 to be closed when the enabling signal En or the Delay signal Delay is valid, output an invalid Logic signal Logic to control the relay 70 to be opened when the enabling signal En or the Delay signal Delay is invalid, and output an invalid Logic signal Logic to control the relay 70 to be opened when the trigger signal CP is valid during the reset of the processing module 10.
The relay driving module 50 is connected to the output terminal of the enabling module 30, and is configured to access the Logic signal Logic and output a driving signal Vout according to the Logic signal Logic, and the relay 70 is connected to the output terminal of the relay driving module 50, and is configured to access the driving signal Vout and is turned on or turned off under the control of the driving signal Vout. Specifically, the driving signal Vout is an analog signal, when the Logic signal Logic is valid, the relay driving module 50 outputs the driving signal Vout having a voltage greater than or equal to a second reference voltage Vref2, so as to control the relay 70 to close, and when the Logic signal Logic is invalid, the relay driving module 50 outputs the driving signal Vout having a voltage less than the second reference voltage Vref2, so as to control the relay 70 to open.
The second reference voltage Vref2 may be designed according to the operating voltage of the relay 70, for example, the operating voltage of the relay 70 may be 5V, the second reference voltage Vref2 may be set to 3.5V, the relay 70 may be controlled to be closed when the voltage of the driving signal Vout is greater than or equal to 3.5V, and the relay 70 may be opened when the voltage of the driving signal Vout is less than 3.5V.
In the resetting process of the processing module 10, due to the time delay holding function of the time delay module 20, a large current still exists on the relay 70 when a vehicle runs, and at the moment, the power supply of the relay 70 falls off in a short time, so that the relay 70 is immediately combined after being disconnected, and the relay 70 is burnt out; meanwhile, if the power supply of the delay module 20 drops, which causes the delay module 20 not to work normally, the relay 70 may malfunction due to the delay module 20. Based on this, the trigger condition may be designed according to the power supply droop of the delay module 20 and the power supply droop of the relay 70, in this embodiment, the trigger condition includes that the power supply voltage V1 is lower than a first reference voltage Vref1 and/or the voltage of the driving signal Vout is lower than the second reference voltage Vref2, that is, when the power supply voltage V1 is lower than the first reference voltage Vref1 and/or the voltage of the driving signal Vout is lower than the second reference voltage Vref2, the trigger module 40 may output an effective trigger signal CP, so as to control the relay 70 to be turned off, thereby preventing the relay 70 from being immediately combined after the relay 70 is turned off when the power supply of the relay 70 is dropped for a short time in the reset process of the processing module 10, which causes the problem of burning out the relay 70; meanwhile, the problem that the relay 70 malfunctions due to the delay module 20 when the power supply of the delay module 20 falls off and the delay module 20 cannot work normally can be prevented.
Certainly, the trigger condition is not limited to this, and may also be other possible trigger conditions, and no explanation is given here, in this embodiment, the trigger module 40 presets a trigger condition, when the trigger condition is met, the trigger module 40 may output the valid trigger signal CP, and the enabling module 30 may control the relay 70 to be turned off according to the trigger signal CP in the process of resetting the processing module 10, which is equivalent to turn off the delay holding function of the delay module 20 according to needs in the process of resetting the processing module 10, so as to protect the driving circuit of the relay.
Fig. 2 is a specific circuit diagram of the enable module 30 and the trigger module 40 provided in this embodiment. As shown in fig. 2, the trigger module 40 includes a first comparator 41, a second comparator 42, and a first or gate 43. A first input terminal of the first comparator 41 is connected to the output terminal of the power supply module 60, and is configured to access the supply voltage V1; a second input of the first comparator 41 is connected to the first reference voltage Vref1, and the first comparator 41 is configured to compare the supply voltage V1 with the first reference voltage Vref1 and output a valid first comparison signal when the supply voltage V1 is lower than the first reference voltage Vref 1. The first input terminal of the second comparator 42 is connected to the output terminal of the relay driving module 50 and is configured to receive the driving signal Vout, the second input terminal of the second comparator 42 is connected to the second reference voltage Vref2, and the first comparator 41 is configured to compare the voltage of the driving signal Vout with the second reference voltage Vref2 and output a valid second comparison signal when the voltage of the driving signal Vout is lower than the second reference voltage Vref 2. The first or gate 43 is connected to the output ends of the first comparator 41 and the second comparator 42, and is configured to access the first comparison signal and the second comparison signal, perform an or operation on the first comparison signal and the second comparison signal, and output the active trigger signal CP when the first comparison signal or the second comparison signal is active. In this way, when the supply voltage V1 is lower than the first reference voltage Vref1 and/or the voltage of the driving signal Vout is lower than the second reference voltage Vref2, the trigger module 40 can output the active trigger signal CP, otherwise, the trigger module 40 outputs the inactive trigger signal CP.
As an alternative embodiment, the triggering module 40 may only include the first comparator 41, and a first input terminal of the first comparator 41 is connected to the output terminal of the power supply module 60, and is configured to access the power supply voltage V1; a second input terminal of the first comparator 41 is connected to the first reference voltage Vref1, and the first comparator 41 is configured to compare the supply voltage V1 with the first reference voltage Vref1 and output the active trigger signal CP when the supply voltage V1 is lower than the first reference voltage Vref 1. In this way, the trigger module 40 can output the active trigger signal CP when the supply voltage V1 is lower than the first reference voltage Vref1, and otherwise, the trigger module 40 can output the inactive trigger signal CP.
As an alternative embodiment, the trigger module 40 may only include a second comparator 42, a first input terminal of the second comparator 42 is connected to the output terminal of the relay driving module 50 and is configured to receive the driving signal Vout, a second input terminal of the second comparator 42 is connected to the second reference voltage Vref2, and the first comparator 41 is configured to compare a voltage of the driving signal Vout with the second reference voltage Vref2 and output the active trigger signal CP when the voltage of the driving signal Vout is lower than the second reference voltage Vref 2. In this way, the trigger module 40 can output the active trigger signal CP when the voltage of the driving signal Vout is lower than the second reference voltage Vref2, and otherwise, the trigger module 40 can output the inactive trigger signal CP.
Further, referring to fig. 2, in the present embodiment, the enabling module 30 includes a latch 31, an and gate 32, and a second or gate 33. The input end D of the latch 31 is connected to the output end of the processing module 10 and is configured to access the enable signal En, the reset end E of the latch 31 is accessed to the trigger signal CP, when the trigger signal CP is invalid, the latch 31 is in a latch state, and when the trigger signal CP is valid, the latch 31 is in a reset state. The and gate 32 is connected to the Delay module 20 and the output terminal Y of the latch 31, and is configured to access the Delay signal Delay and the output signal of the latch 31 and perform an and operation on the Delay signal Delay and the output signal of the latch 31. The second or gate 33 is connected to the processing module 10 and the output end of the and gate 32, and configured to access the enable signal En and the output signal of the and gate 32, perform an or operation on the enable signal En and the output signal of the and gate 32, and output the Logic signal Logic.
In this embodiment, the enable signal En, the Delay signal Delay, the Logic signal Logic, and the trigger signal CP are all digital signals. The timing of the trigger module 40 and the enable module 30 will be described in detail below with the digital signal being "1" valid and "0" invalid.
When the processing module 10 is powered on, the enable signal En is "1", and the Logic signal Logic output by the second or gate 33 is "1" regardless of whether the other input of the second or gate 33 is "1" or "0", and the relay driving module 50 outputs the driving signal Vout to control the relay 70 to be closed. When the processing module 10 is normally powered off/reset, the enable signal En is "0", due to the Delay action of the Delay module 20, the Delay signal Delay becomes "0" after the Delay time elapses, at this time, the latch 31 is in the latch state (latch the enable signal En when powered on), the output of the latch 31 is "1", the output of the and gate 32 becomes "0" after the Delay time elapses, the Logic signal Logic output by the second or gate 33 becomes "0" after the Delay time elapses, and the relay driving module 50 outputs the driving signal Vout to control the relay 70 to be turned off. In the process of resetting, in the delay time of the processing module 10, if the power supply voltage V1 is lower than the first reference voltage Vref1 and/or the voltage of the driving signal Vout is lower than the second reference voltage Vref2, the first or gate 43 outputs the valid trigger signal CP, the latch 31 is in the reset state, the output of the latch 31 immediately becomes "0", the output of the and gate 32 immediately becomes "0", the Logic signal Logic output by the second or gate 33 immediately becomes "0", and the relay driving module 50 immediately outputs the driving signal Vout to control the relay 70 to be turned off. It can be seen that the enabling module 30 can control the relay 70 to be closed when the enabling signal En or the Delay signal Delay is active, and control the relay 70 to be opened when the trigger signal CP is active during the reset of the processing module 10.
Further, a first sampling point K1 is arranged on the output end Y of the latch 31, and the processing module 10 collects a signal at the first sampling point K1 in real time; and/or a second sampling point K2 is arranged at the output end of the AND gate 32, and the processing module 10 collects signals at the second sampling point K2 in real time. Since the signal at the first sampling point K1 can represent the output signal of the latch 31, and the signal at the second sampling point K2 can represent the Delay signal Delay and the output signal of the latch 31, the processing module 10 can perform fault diagnosis on the latch 31 or the Delay module 20 by acquiring the signals at the first sampling point K1 and the second sampling point K2 in real time.
Example two
Fig. 3 is a partial schematic diagram of a driving circuit of the relay according to this embodiment. As shown in fig. 3, the difference from the first embodiment is that, in the present embodiment, the relay 70 is a relay controlled by two sides, and the delay module, the relay driving module, the and gate, and the second or gate all have two sets, which are respectively used for controlling the high side and the low side of the relay 70.
Specifically, the delay module includes a delay module 21 and a delay module 22, the relay driving module includes a relay driving module 51 and a relay driving module 52, the and gate includes an and gate 321 and an and gate 322, and the second or gate includes a second or gate 331 and a second or gate 332. The Delay module 21 and the Delay module 22 are both connected to the output end of the processing module 10 and are configured to access the enable signal En, and the Delay module 21 and the Delay module 22 respectively output the Delay signal Delay1 and the Delay signal Delay2 according to the enable signal En. The and gate 321 is connected to the Delay module 21 and the output end Y of the latch 31, and is configured to access the Delay signal Delay1 and the output signal of the latch 31 and perform and operation on the Delay signal Delay1 and the output signal of the latch 31; the and gate 322 is connected to the Delay module 22 and the output terminal Y of the latch 31, and is configured to access the Delay signal Delay2 and the output signal of the latch 31 and perform and operation on the Delay signal Delay2 and the output signal of the latch 31. The second or gate 331 is connected to the processing module 10 and the output end of the and gate 321, and configured to access the enable signal En and the output signal of the and gate 321, perform an or operation on the enable signal En and the output signal of the and gate 321, and output the Logic signal Logic 1; the second or gate 332 is connected to the processing module 10 and the output end of the and gate 322, and configured to access the enable signal En and the output signal of the and gate 322, perform an or operation on the enable signal En and the output signal of the and gate 322, and output the Logic signal Logic 2. The relay driving module 51 and the relay driving module 52 are respectively connected to the output ends of the second or gate 331 and the second or gate 332, and respectively output the driving signal Vout1 and the driving signal Vout2 according to the Logic signal Logic1 and the Logic signal Logic 2. The drive signal Vout1 and the drive signal Vout2 together drive the high and low sides of the relay 70.
