To solve one or more of the problems of the prior art, embodiments of the present invention provide a signal transmission apparatus and method. First, a signal transmission device according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described.
Fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a signal transmission device according to a first embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, the signal transmission device may include a DC power supply 105 (e.g., an AC/DC power supply, a DC/DC power supply, a battery power supply, or the like), a main device 101, a DC power supply line 100, a load 111, and the like, wherein the main device 101 may include a switch 103. In some embodiments, the signal transmission device may further include a load 121.
As an example, the master device 101 may be configured to transmit a signal to the load 111 over the dc supply line 100 when the switch 103 is in an off state; and the dc power supply 105 may be configured to supply power to the load 111 through the dc power supply line 100 when the switch 103 is in the on state.
As one example, the master device 101 may further include a control source 104, a master signal source 102, and the like, and the load 111 may include a load receiving circuit 113, and the like. Wherein the control source 104 may be configured to control the on and off of the switch 103; the primary signal source 102 may be configured to transmit a signal to the load receiving circuit 113 over the dc power supply line 100 when the switch 103 is in an off state.
As an example, the load 111 may further include a switch 112, a load capacitor 114, a functional module 115, and the like, wherein when the switch 103 is in an off state and the switch 112 is in an off state, the voltage on the load capacitor 114 cannot be used to clamp the voltage on the dc power supply line 100; and in the event that the voltage on the load capacitance 114 cannot be used to clamp the voltage on the dc supply line 100, the main signal source 102 may be configured to transmit a signal to the load receiving circuit 113 over the dc supply line 100.
As an example, the switch 112 may be a diode, a Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor (MOSFET), or other component with a switching function, and it is understood that the following is described with the switch as a diode, which is provided as an example only and should not be construed as limiting.
As shown in fig. 1, the first terminal and the second terminal of the dc power supply 105 may be connected to the first terminal 101-1 and the second terminal 101-2 of the master device 101, respectively, the first terminal 101-1 of the master device 101 may be connected to the first terminal 103-1 of the switch 103, the second terminal 103-2 of the switch 103 may be connected to the third terminal 101-3 of the master device 101, the second terminal 101-2 of the master device 101 may be connected to the fourth terminal 101-4, the third terminal 101-3 and the fourth terminal 101-4 of the master device 101 may be connected to the positive pole and the negative pole of the dc power supply line 100, respectively, the first terminal 102-1 of the master signal source 102 may be connected to the third terminal 101-3 of the master device 101 and the second terminal 103-2 of the switch 103, the second terminal 102-2 of the master signal source 102 may be connected to the first terminal 104-1 of the control source 104, a second terminal 104-2 of control source 104 may be connected to a third terminal of switch 103 such that second terminal 104-2 of control source 104 may output a signal for controlling the turning on and off of switch 103.
As shown in FIG. 1, the first and second terminals 111-1 and 111-2 of the load 111 are connected to the positive and negative poles of the DC power supply line 100 at line B-B', respectively; a first terminal 111-1 of the load 111 may be internally connected to a first terminal 112-1 (e.g., an anode) of a switch 112 (e.g., a diode) and a first terminal 113-1 of the load receiving circuit 113, a second terminal 112-2 (e.g., a cathode) of the switch 112 (e.g., a diode) may be connected to a first terminal 114-1 of the capacitor 114 and a first terminal 115-1 of the functional module 115, and a second terminal 114-2 of the capacitor 114 may be connected to a second terminal 111-2 of the load 111.
As an example, the switch 103 may be turned off in a short time under the control of the control source 104, and the power supply from the dc power supply 105 to the third terminal 101-3 of the main device 101 is turned off, and thus the power supply to the load 111 is turned off. When the switch 103 is in the off state and the voltage provided by the main signal source 102 is less than the voltage on the load capacitor 114, the switch 112 inside the load 111 is in the off state, so the switch 112 can isolate the voltage on the load capacitor 114 from the first terminal 111-1 of the load 111, the isolation is such that the voltage on the load capacitor 114 cannot be used to clamp the voltage on the first terminal 111-1 of the load 111 and the positive pole of the dc power supply line 100, the inability of the voltage on the load capacitor 114 to clamp means that the voltage provided by the main signal source 102 can be freely varied without being truncated, so the main signal source 102 can transmit a signal to the positive pole of the dc power supply line 100 through the first terminal 102-1 of the main signal source 102 and the third terminal 101-3 of the main device 101, the signal can be transmitted through the point a to the point B of the dc power supply line 100, the signal may then be transmitted to the load receiving circuit 113 via the first terminal 111-1 of the load 111 and the first terminal 113-1 of the load receiving circuit 113.
Furthermore, after the main signal source 102 completes transmission of the signal, the switch 103 may be turned on under the control of the control source 104, so that the dc power supply 105 may continue to supply power to the load 111 through the dc power supply line 100.
Through the signal transmission device provided by the embodiment of the invention, the signal transmission can be completed by using the direct current power supply line under the condition that the signal transmission line is not additionally added, and if the switch in the main equipment is short in turn-off time and long in turn-on time, the load can be continuously subjected to direct current power supply, the time that the load is not supplied with power is short and can be ignored, so that the normal work of the load is not influenced. Meanwhile, the transmission of the signals is completed in a wired mode, the possibility of interference by electromagnetic signals can be greatly reduced, and the reliability, confidentiality and the like of signal transmission are ensured.
As another example, in addition to the above-described manner of unidirectional signal transmission in which a signal is transmitted from the main signal source 102 to the load receiving circuit 113 through the dc power supply line 100, the following embodiments may provide a manner of bidirectional signal transmission in which a signal may be transmitted from a load to a main device via a dc power supply line, in addition to transmitting a signal from the main device to the load via the dc power supply line. Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic structural diagram of a signal transmission device according to a second embodiment of the present invention.
Specifically, the difference between the embodiment shown in fig. 2 and the embodiment shown in fig. 1 is mainly that the master device 201 of the embodiment of fig. 2 may include a master receiving circuit 206 in addition to the various components shown in fig. 1, and the load 211 may include a load signal source 216 in addition to the various components shown in fig. 1.
Specifically, the signal transmission device shown in fig. 2 includes a dc power supply line 200, a master 201, a dc power supply 205, a load 211, a load 221, and the like. The master device 201 may include a master signal source 202, a control source 204, a switch 203, a master receiving circuit 206, and the like, and the load 211 may include a switch 212, a load capacitor 214, a load receiving circuit 213, a function module 215, a load signal source 216, and the like.
As an example, the switch 212 may be a diode, a Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor (MOSFET), or other component with a switching function, and it is understood that the following is described with the switch as a diode, which is provided as an example only and should not be construed as limiting.
As one example, the load signal source 216 may be configured to transmit a signal to the primary receive circuit 206 through the dc supply line 200 when the switch 203 is in an off state. In this way, bidirectional transmission of signals can be achieved without adding additional signal transmission lines.
As shown in fig. 2, the first terminal and the second terminal of the dc power supply 205 may be connected to the first terminal 201-1 and the second terminal 201-2 of the main device 201, respectively, the first terminal 201-1 of the main device 201 may be connected to the first terminal 203-1 of the switch 203, the second terminal 203-2 of the switch 203 may be connected to the third terminal 201-3 of the main device 201, the second terminal 201-2 of the main device 201 may be connected to the fourth terminal 201-4, and the third terminal 201-3 and the fourth terminal 201-4 of the main device 201 may be connected to the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the dc power supply line 200, respectively.
The first terminal 202-1 of the main signal source 202 and the first terminal 206-1 of the main receiving circuit 206 may be connected to the second terminal 203-2 of the switch 203, the second terminal 202-2 of the main signal source 202 may be connected to the first terminal 204-1 of the control source 204, and the second terminal 204-2 of the control source may be connected to the third terminal of the switch 203, so that the second terminal 204-2 of the control source may output a signal for controlling the on and off of the switch 203.
The first terminal 211-1 and the second terminal 211-2 of the load 211 are connected to the positive pole and the negative pole of the direct current supply line 200 at points B and B', respectively; the first terminal 211-1 of the load 211 may be internally connected to the first terminal 212-1 of the switch 212, the first terminal 213-1 of the load receive circuit 213 and the first terminal 216-1 of the load signal source 216, and the second terminal 212-2 of the switch 212 may be internally connected to the first terminal 214-1 of the capacitor 214 and the first terminal 215-1 of the functional module 215, and the second terminal 214-2 of the capacitor 214 may be connected to the second terminal 211-2 of the load 211.
As an example, for the direction of signal transmission from the main signal source 202 to the load receiving circuit 213 via the dc power supply line 200, when the switch 203 is in the off state and the switch 212 is in the off state, the voltage on the load capacitance 214 cannot be used to clamp the voltage on the dc power supply line 200; and in the event that the voltage on the load capacitance 214 cannot be used to clamp the voltage on the dc supply line 200, the main signal source 202 may be configured to transmit a signal to the load receiving circuit 213 via the dc supply line 200.
Specifically, the switch 203 may be turned off in a short time under the control of the control source 204, and the power supply from the dc power supply 205 to the third terminal 201-3 of the main device 201 is turned off, and thus the power supply to the load 211 is turned off. When the switch 203 is in the off state and the voltage provided by the main signal source 202 is lower than the voltage on the load capacitor 214, the switch 212 inside the load 211 may be in the off state, and thus the switch 212 may isolate the voltage on the load capacitor 214 from the first terminal 211-1 of the load 211, such isolation being such that the voltage on the load capacitor 214 cannot be used to clamp the voltage on the first terminal 211-1 of the load 211 and the positive pole of the dc power supply line 200, and the inability of the voltage on the load capacitor 214 to be used to clamp means that the voltage provided by the main signal source 202 may be freely varied without being cut off, and thus the main signal source 202 may transmit a signal to the positive pole (e.g., point a) of the dc power supply line 200 through the first terminal 202-1 of the main signal source 202 and the third terminal 201-3 of the main device 201 and through point B of the dc power supply line, the signal may then be transmitted to the load receive circuit 213 via the first terminal 211-1 of the load 211 and the first terminal 213-1 of the load receive circuit 213.
Similarly, for the direction in which the load signal source 216 transmits a signal to the main receiving circuit 206, when the switch 203 is in the off state and the switch 212 is in the off state, the voltage on the load capacitance 214 cannot be used to clamp the voltage on the dc supply line 200; and in the event that the voltage on the load capacitance 214 cannot be used to clamp the voltage on the dc supply line 200, the load signal source 216 may be configured to transmit a signal to the primary receiving circuit 206 over the dc supply line 200.
Specifically, the switch 203 may be turned off in a short time under the control of the control source 204, and the power supply from the dc power supply 205 to the third terminal 201-3 of the main device 201 is turned off, and thus the power supply to the load 211 is turned off. When the switch 203 is in the off state and the voltage provided by the load signal source 216 is lower than the voltage on the load capacitor 214, the switch 212 inside the load 211 may be in the off state, and thus the switch 212 may isolate the voltage on the load capacitor 214 from the first terminal 211-1 of the load 211, such isolation being such that the voltage on the load capacitor 214 cannot be used to clamp the voltage on the first terminal 211-1 of the load 211 and the positive pole of the dc power supply line 200, and the inability of the voltage on the load capacitor 214 to be used to clamp means that the voltage provided by the load signal source 216 may be freely varied without being cut off, and thus, the load signal source 216 may transmit a signal to the positive pole (e.g., point B) of the dc power supply line 200 through the first terminal 216-1 of the load signal source 216 and the first terminal 211-1 of the load 211 and pass through point a of the dc power supply line, the signal may then be transmitted to the main receiving circuit 206 via the third terminal 201-3 of the main device 201 and the first terminal 206-1 of the main receiving circuit 206.
As an example, after the main signal source 202 or the load signal source 216 completes transmitting the signal, the switch 203 may be turned on under the control of the control source 204, so that the dc power supply 205 may continue to supply power to the load 211.
As one example, the primary signal source 202 or the load signal source 216 may transmit signals in some agreed manner, e.g., timed or non-timed.
By the above method, bidirectional signal transmission can be realized on the direct current power supply line 200, so that a plurality of master devices and a plurality of slave devices on the direct current power supply line 200 can be controlled and interactive communication can be realized therebetween; and has advantages such as simple wiring (for example, only a direct current power supply line is needed to realize transmission of signals), strong interference resistance and strong confidentiality.
