Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more apparent, the present application is described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application.
Referring to fig. 1-2, a first aspect of the present application provides a light detection circuit 1, where the light detection circuit 1 includes a photoelectric conversion circuit 10, a front-end amplifier 20, a clamping circuit 30, and a temperature drift compensation circuit 40.
As shown in fig. 1, the photoelectric conversion circuit 10 is configured to receive light reflected by a target object and convert an optical signal of the light into an electrical signal, and the photoelectric conversion circuit 10 includes a voltage bias terminal 101 and a signal output terminal 102, where the voltage bias terminal 101 is configured to receive a bias voltage HV. The electrical signal may be a voltage signal or a current signal, and the signal output terminal 102 may be understood as a port for outputting the electrical signal in the photoelectric conversion circuit 10, and the specific circuit structure of the photoelectric conversion circuit 10 will be described below.
It should be noted that when the light reflected by the target object carries a large amount of light energy, the light can form a large electrical signal after being processed by the photoelectric conversion circuit 10; similarly, when the light reflected by the target object has a small amount of light energy, the light can form a small electrical signal after being processed by the photoelectric conversion circuit 10. That is, the light energy carried by the light reflected by the target object is in positive correlation with the electrical signal processed by the photoelectric conversion circuit 10, and the positive correlation may be linear or non-linear. The photoelectric conversion circuit 10 may have a certain electric signal amplification function.
The front-end amplifier 20 is configured to amplify the electrical signal output by the signal output terminal 102, and the front-end amplifier 20 has an amplification input terminal 201 and an amplification output terminal 202, where the amplification input terminal 201 and the signal output terminal 102 are connected to the first node b1. Here, the amplifying input terminal 201 may be understood as a port of the front-end amplifier 20 for receiving the electrical signal output by the signal output terminal 102, and the amplifying output terminal 202 may be understood as a port of the front-end amplifier 20 for outputting a larger electrical signal. The specific circuit configuration of the front-end amplifier 20 will be described later. In addition, the amplification input terminal 201 can also be connected to a subsequent signal processing circuit to realize the detection function of the optoelectronic system.
It should be noted that the electrical signal output via the signal output terminal 102 may be a voltage signal, and the voltage signal may be converted into a larger voltage signal or a larger current signal after being processed by the front-end amplifier 20 and output from the amplified output terminal 202; of course, the electrical signal output through the signal output terminal 102 may also be a current signal, and the current signal may be converted into a larger voltage signal or a larger current signal after being processed by the front-end amplifier 20 and output from the amplifying output terminal 202.
As shown in fig. 1, the clamping circuit 30 is used for reducing the electric signal flowing into the amplifying input terminal 201 of the front-end amplifier 20, the clamping circuit 30 has a clamping input terminal 301 and a clamping output terminal 302, the clamping input terminal 301 is used for connecting the clamping voltage V _ BAIS, and the clamping output terminal 302 is connected to the first node b1. It should be noted that the clamp voltage V _ BAIS can be realized by connecting the clamp input terminal 301 to a power supply or an operational amplifier, and the clamp voltage V _ BAIS can also be realized to be adjustable.
It can be understood that, if the photoelectric conversion circuit 10 detects a strong light and outputs an excessively large electrical signal to the front-end amplifier 20, that is, inputs an excessively large energy to the signal amplification circuit 20, at this time the signal amplification circuit 20 will be in a saturated state, and the larger the energy input to the signal amplification circuit 20 is, the longer the time that the signal amplification circuit 20 needs to release the energy is, that is, the longer the time that the signal amplification circuit 20 is in the saturated state is, therefore, in this embodiment of the application, by providing the clamping circuit 30, the voltage of the electrical signal output to the signal amplification circuit 20 by the photoelectric conversion circuit 10 is clamped at a required lower voltage, so as to reduce the energy output to the signal amplification circuit 20 by the photoelectric conversion circuit 10, and thus shorten the time that the signal amplification circuit 20 is in the saturated state. The specific circuit structure of the clamp circuit 30 will be described later.
It can be understood that the clamp circuit 30 has a clamp function through an internal PN junction, the PN junction itself has a conduction threshold at normal temperature, and the conduction threshold of the PN junction shifts along with the change of the temperature of the environment where the clamp circuit 30 is located, which is referred to as temperature drift for short, so that the situation that the conduction threshold of the PN junction rises or falls due to the temperature change occurs, and the overall performance of the optical detection circuit 1 is further affected.
As shown in fig. 2-3, the temperature drift compensation circuit 40 can be used to solve the problem that the voltage drop of the PN junction in the clamp circuit 30 is shifted due to the temperature change, the temperature drift compensation circuit 40 has a compensation input terminal 401 and a compensation output terminal 402, the compensation input terminal 401 is used for receiving the temperature signal T, and the compensation output terminal 402 is connected to the clamp input terminal 301 and is used for outputting the compensation voltage. The compensation input 401 may be understood as a receiving port of the temperature signal T currently in the temperature drift compensation circuit 40, and the compensation output 402 may be understood as an output port of the compensation voltage. For example, the turn-on threshold of the PN junction of the clamp circuit 30 is 0.7V at normal temperature, and as the temperature of the operating environment rises, for example, the temperature of the operating environment rises to 30 degrees celsius, the actual voltage drop of the PN junction of the clamp circuit 30 becomes 0.6V, and if the bias voltage applied to the two ends of the PN junction by the clamp circuit 30 is still 0.7V at this time, the operation of the PN junction of the clamp circuit 30 is unstable, which affects the overall performance of the optical detection circuit 1. The compensation voltage is input to the clamp circuit 30 through the temperature drift compensation circuit 40, so that the bias voltage given to two ends of the PN junction in the clamp circuit 30 is reduced to 0.6V, and the bias voltage is equal to the actual voltage drop of the PN junction by 0.6V, namely when the compensation voltage is finally applied to the PN junction, the bias voltage at two ends of the PN junction is reduced by 0.7V-0.6V =0.1V, and the bias voltage at two ends of the PN junction is equal to the actual voltage drop of the PN junction.
For another example, in cold seasons or regions, since the operating environment temperature is reduced, for example, the operating environment temperature is reduced to 15 degrees celsius, the actual conduction threshold value of the PN junction of the clamp circuit 30 becomes 0.8V, and at this time, the conduction threshold value of the PN junction of the clamp circuit 30 is increased (compared to 0.7V at normal temperature), and the bias voltage acting on both ends of the PN junction is still 0.7V, so that the PN junction of the clamp circuit 30 cannot be conducted, and the clamping function of the clamp circuit 30 cannot be realized, thereby affecting the overall performance of the light detection circuit 1. The compensation voltage is input to the clamp circuit 30 through the temperature drift compensation circuit 40, so that the bias voltages given to two ends of the PN junction in the clamp circuit 30 are equal to the actual voltage drop of the PN junction, that is, when the compensation voltage is finally applied to the PN junction, the bias voltages at two ends of the PN junction are increased by 0.8V-0.7v =0.1v, so that the voltage at two ends of the PN junction is converted from the original 0.7V to 0.7v +0.1v =0.8v, the actual conduction threshold of the PN junction is reached, the PN junction can be normally conducted, and the bias voltages at two ends of the PN junction are equal to the actual voltage drop of the PN junction, and the bias voltages at two ends of the PN junction are not too high or too low compared with the actual voltage drop of the PN junction, so that the stability of the optical detection circuit 1 during operation can be ensured.
Based on the optical detection circuit 1 in the embodiment of the present application, the photoelectric conversion circuit 10 is configured to convert a received optical signal into an electrical signal, and output the electrical signal to the signal amplification circuit 20 for amplification, and at the same time, the clamping circuit 30 is connected to the amplification input end 201 of the signal amplification circuit 20, so as to prevent the photoelectric conversion circuit 10 from inputting excessive energy to the signal amplification circuit 20 and making the signal amplification circuit 20 in a saturation state for a long time, thereby shortening the detection time of the optical detection circuit 1.
Specifically, the specific circuit structure of the temperature drift compensation circuit 40 can be implemented in, but not limited to, the following several possible embodiments.
As shown in fig. 1-2, in an embodiment, the temperature drift compensation circuit 40 includes an operational amplifier U12, a first resistor R1 and a second resistor R2, an inverting input terminal of the operational amplifier U12 is connected to the reference voltage V +, a first end of the first resistor R1 is connected to a compensation input terminal 401 of the temperature drift compensation circuit 40, a second end of the first resistor R1 and a non-inverting input terminal of the operational amplifier U12 are connected to a second node b2, a first end of the second resistor R2 is connected to the second node b2, and a second end of the second resistor R2 is connected to an output terminal of the operational amplifier U12 and to a compensation output terminal 402 of the temperature drift compensation circuit 40. In this design, the compensation input end 401 of the temperature drift compensation circuit 40 is connected to the temperature signal T, the amplification factor of the operational amplifier U12 can be set by adjusting the resistance values of the first resistor R1 and the second resistor R2, the output end of the operational amplifier U12 can obtain the compensation voltage corresponding to the temperature signal T, after the compensation voltage is connected to the clamp input end 301 of the clamp circuit 30, the clamp circuit 30 can be made to have a compensation voltage at different temperatures, the compensation voltage can make the bias voltage given to the two ends of the PN junction in the clamp circuit 30 equal to the actual voltage drop of the PN junction, so that the PN junction in the clamp circuit 30 works stably, and further the overall stability of the optical detection circuit 1 is enhanced.
For example, in fig. 2, R1=500 Ω and R2=130 Ω, taking the temperature sensor with model number TMP235A4DCKR as an example, the relationship of the output voltage of the temperature sensor with temperature change is: VT =500+10x, and when x =25 ℃, VT =750mV, V _ BAIS =3250mV.
From the above, the following relations can be obtained according to the principles of "virtual short" and "virtual break":
v3= V +. Cnlationgraph (1)
(VT-V +)/R1 = (V3-V _ BAIS)/R2
Obtaining a relation (3) according to the relation (1) and the relation (2):
V_BAIS=((R1+R2)/R1)*(V+)-(R2/R1)*VT......(3)
substituting "x =25 ℃, VT =500+10x =500+10 + 25= 750mv" into relation (3) may reversely deduce that V _ BAIS =3250mV satisfies relation (4):
v _ BAIS =3455-0.26VT
Wherein VT is the output voltage of the temperature sensor; x is the temperature in centigrade (namely, the output voltage of the temperature sensor is increased by 10mV when the temperature is increased by 1 ℃ every time); v3 is the voltage of the non-inverting input end of the operational amplifier; v + is a reference voltage; V-BAIS is a clamping voltage; r1 is the resistance value of the first resistor; and R2 is the resistance value of the second resistor.
As shown in fig. 3, in another embodiment, the temperature drift compensation circuit 40 includes a controller, the controller has a compensation input terminal 401 and a compensation output terminal 402 of the temperature drift compensation circuit 40, and the controller pre-stores the corresponding relationship between the temperature signal T and the compensation voltage, for example, the controller is integrated with a storage unit, and the corresponding relationship between the temperature signal T and the compensation voltage is pre-stored in the storage unit. In the design, after the controller receives the temperature signal T, the controller obtains a corresponding compensation voltage according to the received temperature signal T and the corresponding relationship between the pre-stored temperature signal T and the compensation voltage, and outputs the compensation voltage to the clamping input end 301 of the clamping circuit 30 through the compensation output end 402 of the controller, so that the offset voltage given to the two ends of the PN junction in the clamping circuit 30 is equal to the actual voltage drop of the PN junction, and therefore, the clamping circuit 30 corresponds to a compensation voltage at different temperatures, and the compensation voltage enables the PN junction in the clamping circuit 30 to work stably, thereby enhancing the overall stability of the optical detection circuit 1. It will be appreciated that there is a one-to-one correspondence between the temperature signal T and the compensation voltage, e.g., the compensation voltage may decrease as the temperature signal T increases.
The clamp circuit 30 clamps the voltage by the principle of unidirectional PN junction conduction to reduce the voltage signal or energy input to the front-end amplifier 20, and the specific circuit structure of the clamp circuit 30 may be, but is not limited to, the following several possible embodiments.
In the first embodiment, the clamping circuit 30 includes a diode (not shown), the cathode of the diode is connected to the clamping output terminal 302, and the anode of the diode is connected to the clamping input terminal 301. In the design, the compensation voltage output by the compensation output terminal 402 of the temperature drift compensation circuit 40 acts on the anode of the diode, so that the bias voltage at the two ends of the PN junction of the diode is equal to the actual voltage drop of the PN junction, and therefore, the diode has a compensation voltage corresponding to different temperatures, and the compensation voltage makes the PN junction in the diode work stably, thereby enhancing the overall stability of the light detection circuit 1.
As shown in fig. 2, in the second embodiment, the clamping circuit 30 includes a transistor Z2, and the transistor Z2 is an NPN transistor for example, in this case, the base and the collector of the transistor Z2 are connected to the clamping input terminal 301, and the emitter of the transistor Z2 is connected to the clamping output terminal 302. In the design, the compensation voltage output by the compensation output terminal 402 of the temperature drift compensation circuit 40 acts on the base electrode of the triode Z2, so that the bias voltage at two ends of the PN junction between the base electrode and the emitter electrode of the triode Z2 is equal to the actual voltage drop of the PN junction, and the triode Z2 has a corresponding compensation voltage at different temperatures, and the compensation voltage enables the PN junction in the triode Z2 to work stably, thereby enhancing the overall stability of the optical detection circuit 1. Of course, the transistor Z2 may also be a PNP transistor, in which case the base and emitter of the transistor Z2 are connected to the clamping input terminal 301, and the collector of the transistor Z2 is connected to the clamping output terminal 302.
It is understood that the transistor Z2 is further connected to a voltage for turning on the transistor Z2, which voltage can be defined as a turn-on voltage, the turn-on voltage is inputted to the clamping input terminal 301 to act on the base of the transistor Z2, so as to turn on the transistor Z2, and in order to avoid burning out the transistor Z2 by the turn-on voltage and the corresponding current, the clamping circuit 30 further comprises a third resistor R3, a fourth resistor R4 and a first capacitor C1, the third resistor R3 is connected in series between the clamping input terminal 301 and the base of the transistor Z2, the fourth resistor R4 is connected in series between the collector of the transistor Z2, the first plate of the first capacitor C1 is connected to the clamping input terminal 301, and the second plate of the first capacitor C1 is grounded. In the design, the third resistor R3 is designed, so that the current flowing into the base electrode of the triode Z2 can be limited, and the triode Z2 can be well protected; the fourth resistor R4 is designed, so that the current flowing into the collector of the triode Z2 can be limited, and the triode Z2 can be well protected; by designing the first capacitor C1, the on-state voltage and the compensation voltage input to the clamp circuit 30 can be filtered, so that the stability of the clamp circuit 30 during operation can be ensured.
For example, when the transistor Z2 is a Si tube, at normal temperature, the conduction threshold of the PN junction between the base of the transistor Z2 and the emitter of the transistor Z2 is 0.7V, but when the temperature of the environment where the transistor Z2 is located rises by a certain value, for example, 30 ℃, the actual conduction threshold of the PN junction between the base of the transistor Z2 and the emitter of the transistor Z2 is also 0.6V, and if the bias voltage applied to both ends of the PN junction between the base of the transistor Z2 and the emitter of the transistor Z2 is still 0.7V at this time, the PN junction of the transistor Z2 is unstable in operation, so that the overall performance of the optical detection circuit 1 is affected. The temperature drift compensation circuit 40 inputs compensation voltage to the triode Z2, so that the bias voltage at two ends of the PN junction between the base and the emitter of the triode Z2 is reduced to 0.6V, and the bias voltage is equal to the actual voltage drop of the PN junction by 0.6V.
As shown in fig. 4, in the third embodiment, the clamping circuit 30 includes a field effect transistor Q1, and the field effect transistor Q1 is taken as a PMOS transistor for illustration, in which case, the gate and the drain of the field effect transistor Q1 are connected to the clamping input terminal 301, and the source of the field effect transistor Q1 is connected to the clamping output terminal 302. In the design, the compensation voltage output by the compensation output terminal 402 of the temperature drift compensation circuit 40 acts on the gate of the field effect transistor Q1, so that the bias voltages at the two ends of the PN junction between the gate and the source of the field effect transistor Q1 are equal to the actual voltage drop of the PN junction, and therefore the field effect transistor Q1 has a compensation voltage corresponding to different temperatures, and the compensation voltage makes the PN junction between the gate and the source of the field effect transistor Q1 work stably, thereby enhancing the overall stability of the light detection circuit 1.
It should be noted that, when the clamping circuit 30 includes a diode or a field effect transistor Q1, in order to avoid the diode or the field effect transistor Q1 from being damaged due to an excessive conducting voltage or current of the diode or the field effect transistor Q1, a current limiting resistor may be connected in series between the anode of the diode and the clamping input terminal 301, and a filter capacitor may be connected in series between the ground and the clamping input terminal 301; alternatively, a current-limiting resistor is connected in series between the gate of the fet Q1 and the clamp input terminal 301, another current-limiting resistor is connected in series between the drain of the fet Q1 and the clamp input terminal 301, and a filter capacitor is connected in series between ground and the clamp input terminal 301. Of course, the fet Q1 may also be an NMOS transistor, and in this case, the gate and the source of the fet Q1 are connected to the clamp input terminal 301, and the drain of the fet Q1 is connected to the clamp output terminal 302.

The photodiode Z1 may be an avalanche photodiode APD or other type of photodiode, among others. In the design, when the photodiode Z1 is an avalanche photodiode APD, the anode of the photodiode Z1 is connected to the voltage bias terminal 101, and a reverse bias voltage is applied to the photodiode Z1 through the voltage bias terminal 101, so that the photodiode Z1 is in a reverse breakdown mode, and at this time, the photodiode Z1 can not only convert an optical signal reflected by a target object into a photocurrent signal, but also amplify the photocurrent signal, and the gain amplification factor is about 100; by designing the fifth resistor R5, the fifth resistor R5 plays a role of current limiting to protect the photodiode Z1; by designing the second capacitor C2, the second capacitor C2 filters the electric signal in the photoelectric conversion circuit 10.

In the design, the amplifier U11 is designed as a transimpedance amplifier TIA, which can amplify the current signal output by the signal output terminal 102 into a larger voltage signal for output, at this time, the signal output by the transimpedance amplifier TIA to the subsequent circuit of the optoelectronic system is a voltage signal, and the transimpedance amplifier TIA has a larger amplification factor, so that the current signal output by the optoelectronic conversion circuit 10 can be amplified into a larger voltage signal. Similarly, the amplifier U11 is designed as a low-noise amplifier, which can convert the electrical signal output via the signal output terminal 102 into a larger electrical signal, and can amplify the effective signal of the electrical signal without amplifying the noise part of the electrical signal, thereby effectively reducing the influence of the noise signal on the amplified electrical signal. By designing the sixth resistor R6, the sixth resistor R6 plays a role of current limiting for a larger electrical signal output from the output terminal of the amplifier U11, thereby ensuring stability of the circuit structure of the front-end amplifier 20.
