Specifically, the source electrode of the sampling MOS tube is electrically connected with a Power supply, the grid electrode of the sampling MOS tube is electrically connected with the grid electrode of the Power MOS tube M1, the drain electrode of the sampling MOS tube is electrically connected with the inverting input end of the detection current operational amplifier A1, the inverting input end is also electrically connected with the source electrode of the middle MOS tube M0, the grid electrode of the middle MOS tube M0 is electrically connected with the output end of the detection current operational amplifier, the drain electrode of the middle MOS tube M0 is electrically connected with the third switching resistor, the other end of the third switching resistor R3 is grounded, and the non-inverting input end of the detection current operational amplifier A1 is electrically connected with the drain electrode of the Power MOS tube M1; one end of the third converting resistor R3 connected with the middle MOS transistor M0 is further electrically connected with the duty cycle adjusting module 13, so as to output a second detection voltage signal.
Specifically, the first voltage dividing resistor R1 and the second voltage dividing resistor R2 are used for sampling the voltage division of the load voltage and outputting the load voltage signal V vsen The third converting resistor R3 is used for converting the sampling current into voltage and outputting a second detection voltage signal V isen
The load voltage is recorded as V load The load current is denoted as I load The load power is described in further detail belowPressure signal V vsen Second detection voltage signal V isen With load voltage V load Load current I load Is a relationship of (3).
Wherein, KI:1 is the ratio of the width-to-length ratio of the channel of the Power MOS tube M1 to the width-to-length ratio of the channel of the sampling MOS tube M2, then the load voltage and current detection module 11 circuit can obtain a real-time sampling load voltage signal V vsen And a second detection voltage signal V converted by sampling the load current in real time isen The following is shown:
thus, the load voltage signal V is obtained vsen And a second detection voltage signal V isen So that the load power can be calculated later.
Further, the sampling of the load voltage is described in detail as follows:
as shown in fig. 2, AT is a terminal to which load is externally connected.
The circuit within the dashed box on the right side of the AT is for detecting the load voltage and current.
The source electrode of the Power MOS tube M1 is connected with a Power supply VDD, the grid electrode of the Power MOS tube M1 is connected with a circuit for outputting a control PWM signal, and the drain electrode of the Power MOS tube M1 is respectively connected with a load and a voltage dividing circuit to form a parallel connection relation between the load circuit and the voltage dividing circuit. Thus, it is possible to obtain:
the above completes the sampling of the load voltage.
Next, the current sampling is described as follows:
circuit design principle: the resistances of the first voltage dividing resistor R1 and the second voltage dividing resistor R2 are extremely large, so that the current of the Power MOS transistor M1 can be regarded as equal to the load current; the Power MOS tube M1 and the sampling MOS tube M2 work in a linear region, and voltages of a source electrode, a grid electrode and a drain electrode of the Power MOS tube M1 and the sampling MOS tube M2 are respectively equal, so that currents of the Power MOS tube M1 and the sampling MOS tube are in a proportional relation.
Specifically, the resistances of R1 and R2 are much greater than the load, so that the current flowing through the Power MOS tube M1 is mainly that flowing through the load in the parallel circuit, and the current flowing through the other circuit, namely R1 and R2, is that flowing relative to the load current I lad And can be neglected. The following relationship can thus be obtained:
the current flowing through M1 is denoted as I M1 The current flowing through M2 is denoted as I M2
Has I M1 =I load
For KI:1, which is the aspect ratio of the channels of the two mos tubes M1 and M2.
Through the parallel connection of two MOS pipes to two MOS pipes all work in the linear region, and the voltage of their three terminal is the same respectively, can ensure like this that the electric current that flows through M1 forms a invariable proportional relation with the electric current that flows through M2: i M1 =KI*I M2
Specifically, M1 is a high-power switching tube, and M2 is a common MOS tube. This is because M1 also provides the function of supplying current to the load and controlling the switch to achieve a constant power, which requires that the current through M1 be much greater than the current through M2, i.e., KI in the above relationship is also a large value.
In addition, since the high-power switching tube works in the saturation region, the loss is large, so that the M1 is required to be set to work in the linear region so as to reduce the loss of the MOS tube.
Therefore, in order to match the currents of M2 and M1, M2 must also be operated in the linear region, and it must be ensured that both M1 and M2 have the same voltage across their three terminals. The source electrode of M2 is connected to VDD as M1, the grid electrode of M2 is connected to M1, so that the source electrode voltage of M1 is equal to the source electrode voltage of M2, the grid electrode voltage is equal, and only the drain electrode is connected to different resistors, so that the detection current operational amplifier A1 is introduced, and the effect of A1 is to ensure that the drain electrode voltage of M2 is equal to the drain electrode voltage of M1.
Binding I M1 =I load And I M1 =KI*I M2
At the same time, there are:
thereby V can be obtained isen And I load Is a direct proportional relationship to:
the above completes the sampling of the load current.
Preferably, please refer to fig. 3, which is a schematic diagram of a reference power setting module 12 according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

the third MOS tube M3 and the fourth MOS tube M4 work in a saturation region, and the source voltage and the grid voltage are equal, so that the currents of the third MOS tube M3 and the fourth MOS tube M4 are in a proportional relation;

Set V ref1 =V 1 The second reference voltage signal V can be obtained by the circuit of the reference power setting module 12 psen With external power setting resistor R set The relationship of (2) is as follows:
further, the reference power setting module 12 circuit is described in detail as follows:
v1 and V2 are the power supply VDD converted by the internal voltage conversion module and are fixed values.
A2 and A3 are two identical operational amplifiers, the output voltage being equal to the input voltage.
Because the detection current does not need to be supplied to an external load, the detection current can be set to a small value, and therefore, the two MOS tubes in the circuit can adopt common MOS tubes which are marked as M3 and M4 and all work in a saturation region, and because the MOS tubes in the saturation region only ensure Vgs, namely the voltage difference between the grid electrode and the source electrode of the MOS tube is equal, the currents flowing through the two MOS tubes can be ensured to form a certain proportional relation:
I M3 =K P *I M4
P set The terminal of the external power setting resistor Rset has the following relation:
thus, according to the three formulas:
the sampling can be realized by adopting a common MOS tube, setting the MOS tube to be in a saturation region and ensuring that the voltage difference between a grid electrode and a source electrode is equal. In this way, an operational amplifier is saved compared to the circuit of the voltage current detection module, since there is no need to adjust the drain voltages to equalize them.

and according to the four voltage signals V in the load voltage current detection module 11 circuit and the reference power setting module 12 circuit vsen ,V isen ,V psen ,V ref1 The duty ratio duty can be obtained as:
Wherein, by setting R 3 =R 4 The power can be obtained as:
the circuit can set the parameters as constant values during initial design, and the circuit is specifically as follows:
V 1 ,V 2 is an internal reference voltage, is a fixed value;
R 1 ,R 2 is a matching resistor and is designed to be fixed in proportion, and therefore,is also a constant value; k (K) p The current mirror ratio is also a constant value;
R set the resistor is an external resistor, and is a fixed value once set;
therefore, it is known from the above formula that the output power P is a constant value.
And the resistor R can be set by electrically connecting external power with different resistance values set Different reference powers and thus different output powers P can be obtained.
Further, how the duty cycle adjustment circuit switch control section gets Ton and the period T is described in detail below:
regarding the MOS transistors M5, M6, M7, M8:
the duty ratio duty adjusting circuit belongs to an internal circuit, and the current of the duty ratio duty adjusting circuit does not need to be supplied to an external load, so the duty ratio duty adjusting circuit can be set to a small value, and therefore 4 MOS tubes in the duty ratio duty adjusting circuit can be common MOS tubes, marked as M5, M6, M7 and M8 and all work in a saturation region, and the current flowing through the two MOS tubes can be guaranteed to be in a certain proportional relation as long as the MOS tubes in the saturation region guarantee Vgs, namely the voltage difference of the grid electrode and the source electrode of the MOS tubes is equal:
I M5 =K P *I M6
I M 7=K P*I M 8
In the present duty cycle adjusting circuit, however, K P =1, therefore there is:
I M5 =I M6
I M7 =I M8
regarding the switches K1, K2, K3, K4:
the four switches are controlled to be turned on and off by the output of the comparator comp 2;
wherein K1 and K3 are conducted simultaneously to charge C1 and C2;
k2 and K4 are simultaneously conducted to discharge C1 and C2, wherein the discharge is instantaneous discharge, and the time is negligible compared with the charging time.
Thus, q=c=u=i×t
Where C is unchanged, I is a constant value, and as time t increases, U increases accordingly.
The charging duration of C1 is smaller than C2, so that the comparator comp1 connected with C1 is inverted every time.
When C2 is full, comp2 is reversed, and meanwhile, the input level of comp2 is also subjected to switch control, namely when the input level is reversed to a high level, K1 and K3 are controlled to be simultaneously turned off, K2 and K4 are simultaneously turned on, so that fully charged C1 and C2 are simultaneously discharged. Since the discharge is instantaneous, the time is negligible with respect to the charge duration. Therefore, comp2 is immediately inverted when discharging is finished, the low-level control K1 and K3 are released to be simultaneously turned on, and the low-level control K2 and K4 are simultaneously turned off, so that C1 and C2 start to be charged simultaneously, and the next period starts.
By the above cyclic reciprocation, the charging period of C1 can be set to Ton, and the charging period of C2 can be set to T.
These two times are input to the drive by a common RS flip-flop, which in this embodiment is composed of nor gates and is inverted by an inverter in the drive, so as to be input to M1 in fig. 2, and control the on-off of M1.
How Ton, T is related to the sampled voltage current and the set reference power is obtained as follows:
since q=c=u=i×t:
I M5 =I M6 and I M7 =I M8
