Background
The existing PTC controller circuit realizes the on-off of the PTC circuit and a power supply by controlling a power switch (such as an IGBT/MOSFET/mechanical switch and the like) connected with the PTC circuit in series. In practical applications, the length of the lead from the PTC controller circuit to the PTC circuit is not controllable, which may result in uncontrollable line parasitic inductance. If the line parasitic inductance is too large, device failure, such as IGBT overvoltage breakdown, may be caused during power switch operation.
In addition, in order to operate the PTC circuit more efficiently, high voltage needs to be input during operation, but for automotive applications, a complicated voltage boosting device is also required to generate high voltage, which is disadvantageous for PTC applications. Moreover, a conventional PTC control circuit generally employs a power switch to realize the loading of the PTC by high voltage, and a power switch needs to be replaced when damaged. Meanwhile, the switching frequency of one power switch is fixed, which cannot meet the requirements of different scenes on the switching frequency.

The invention provides a PTC control circuit and a PTC control system, which aim to solve the problems in the prior art. Specifically, referring to fig. 1 and 2, the PTC control circuit includes: the PTC controller 200, the diode D1, and the fifth resistor R5;
wherein, the first end of the PTC controller 200 is connected to the first end of the fifth resistor R5 and the PTC circuit 300, respectively; a second end of the fifth resistor R5 is electrically connected to a cathode of the diode D1 and a second end of the PTC circuit 300 in sequence, and a second end of the PTC controller 200 is connected to an anode of the diode D1 and a second end of the PTC circuit; wherein, the PTC controller 200 includes: the power supply circuit comprises a first resistor R1, a first capacitor C1, a second resistor R2, a second capacitor C2, a first power switch tube Q1 and a second power switch tube Q2;
a first end of the first resistor R1 is connected to the first end of the first capacitor C1 and the ground, a second end of the first capacitor C1 is connected to the high-voltage power supply terminal HV, the cathode of the diode D1 and the first end of the PTC circuit 300, a second end of the first resistor R1 is connected to the first end of the second resistor R2, the emitter of the first power switch Q1 and the emitter of the second power switch Q2, a second end of the second resistor R2 is connected to the first end of the second capacitor C2, a second end of the second capacitor C2 is connected to the collector of the first power switch Q1, the collector of the second power switch Q2, the anode of the diode D1 and the second end of the PTC circuit 300, the base of the first power switch Q1 is connected to the first driving terminal G1, and the base of the second power switch Q2 is connected to the second driving terminal G2.
The PTC controller circuit further comprises: a third resistor R3, a third capacitor C3, a fourth resistor R4 and a fourth capacitor C4; the first end of the third resistor R3 is connected to the first end of the third capacitor C3 and the second end of the first resistor R1, the second end of the third resistor R3 is connected to the second end of the third capacitor C3 and the base of the first power switch Q1, the first end of the fourth resistor R4 is connected to the first end of the fourth capacitor C4 and the second end of the first resistor R1, and the second end of the fourth resistor R4 is connected to the second end of the fourth capacitor C4 and the base of the second power switch Q2.
The first power switch Q1 is an IGBT or BJT transistor, and the second power switch Q2 is a MOS transistor.
Next, a specific control method of the PTC control circuit according to the present invention will be described by taking the first power switch Q1 as an IGBT and the second power switch Q2 as a MOS transistor as an example.
Referring to fig. 2, the PTC controller 200 is connected to the PTC circuit using connecting wires, which generate a parasitic inductance L. When the driving signals loaded on the first driving terminal G1 of the first power switch Q1 and the second driving terminal G2 of the second power switch Q2 are suddenly cancelled, the first power switch Q1 and the second power switch Q2 are turned off from on, a loop formed by the high-voltage power supply terminal HV, the parasitic inductor L, PTC circuit 300 and the first resistor R1 is turned off instantaneously, and the parasitic inductor L generates a self-inductance effect due to the instantaneous change of the loop current, so that a large voltage is generated on the inductor. If the diode D1 and the fifth resistor R5 are not provided, the voltage across the parasitic inductor L will be directly applied to the first power switch Q1 or the second power switch Q2, and this large voltage may break down the first power switch Q1 or the second power switch Q2. According to the invention, the diode D1 and the fifth resistor R5 form a loop with the parasitic inductor, and the diode D1 is conducted by the large voltage on the parasitic inductor L, so that the voltage flowing through the parasitic inductor L is reduced, and the first power switch tube Q1 or the second power switch tube Q2 is protected from the impact of the large voltage. Finally, when the voltage of the parasitic inductor L is smaller than the turn-on voltage of the diode D1, the diode D1 is turned off to wait for the next turn-on of the first power switch Q1 or the second power switch Q2. When the diode D1 is turned off and the first power switch Q1 and the second power switch Q2 are also turned off, the fifth resistor R5 can also divide the voltage of the high voltage supply terminal HV, thereby protecting the diode D1.
When the first driving terminal G1 of the first power switch Q1 and the second driving terminal G2 of the second power switch Q2 are not loaded with driving signals, the first power switch Q1 and the second power switch Q2 are turned off and not turned on. At this time, the first capacitor C1 is charged through the high voltage supply terminal HV, and when the first power switch Q1 or the second power switch Q2 is turned on from off, the first capacitor C1 is rapidly discharged, so that the voltage applied to the PTC circuit is raised, and the efficiency of the PTC circuit is improved.
Further, the first power switch Q1 and the second power switch Q2 may be different types of power switches, for example, in this embodiment, the first power switch Q1 is an IGBT, and the second power switch Q2 is a MOS transistor. Compared with an IGBT and an MOS transistor, the IGBT can resist high voltage but has lower switching frequency than the MOS transistor; while MOS transistors have a high switching frequency but a lower withstand voltage than IGBTs. Therefore, the IGBT is suitable for the case of high power and high voltage operation, while the MOS transistor has a high switching frequency, which is suitable for the case where the response sensitivity is more required. In the present invention, the first power switch Q1 and the second power switch Q2 are controlled by independent driving, for example, if only the first power switch Q1 is used, the high voltage power supply terminal HV can form a loop with the PTC circuit 300, the first power switch Q1, and the first resistor R1 as long as the first driving terminal G1 is driven to turn on the first power switch Q1; similarly, if only the second power switch Q2 is used, the high voltage power supply terminal HV can form a loop with the PTC circuit 300, the second power switch Q2 and the first resistor R1 as long as the second driving terminal G2 is driven to turn on the second power switch Q2. Therefore, the power switch tube can be selected to adapt to different application scenarios according to specific needs. It should be appreciated that the described features, structures, or characteristics of the embodiments described above may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments. The present disclosure may be embodied in other specific forms without departing from its essential characteristics. The present embodiments are to be considered in all respects as illustrative and not restrictive, the scope of the disclosure being defined by the appended claims rather than by the foregoing description, and all changes which come within the meaning and range of equivalency of the claims are therefore intended to be embraced therein.
