Description

Voltage switching circuit and power supply system using the same
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the technical field of power management systems, and more particularly, to a voltage switching circuit and a power system using the same.
Background
With the popularization of wireless charging technology, wireless charging receiving chips are widely applied to various portable electronic devices such as mobile phones and wireless bluetooth headsets. Such a device having a wireless charging function generally has two charging modes, one is wireless charging by a wireless charger and the other is wired charging by a power adapter. The wireless charging may generate high voltage at the receiving end in the communication process, and if the two charging modes are performed simultaneously, the high voltage may reach the power adapter through the power channel, so that the adapter is damaged and even safety problems are caused. Therefore, the two charging modes are reasonably switched by adopting a power supply switching mode in the product so as to achieve the aim of safe charging.
Fig. 1 shows a circuit schematic of a conventional voltage switching circuit 100, which includes transistors M1 and M2. The diodes D1 and D2 are substrate diodes of the transistors M1 and M2, respectively, the first terminals of the transistors M1 and M2 receive the input voltages Vin1 and Vin2, respectively, the control terminals of the transistors M1 and M2 are electrically connected to each other, and the second terminals of the transistors M1 and M2 are electrically connected to each other and output a voltage vin_h. The conventional scheme uses the substrate diodes D1 and D2 of the transistors M1 and M2 to realize unidirectional conduction to perform voltage switching, and selects a higher input voltage to supply power to other modules inside the chip. However, this approach generates a drop in diode voltage inside the chip, which is detrimental to the chip's operating voltage and also consumes the overall power of the system. In addition, the diode is forward biased, so that latch-up is easy to occur, and the system stability is poor.

Fig. 2 shows a circuit schematic of a voltage switching circuit 200 according to an embodiment of the invention. Fig. 3 shows a schematic configuration diagram of a power supply system 300 for wired and wireless charging, in which the voltage switching circuit 200 in fig. 2 is installed. The power supply system 300 includes a wireless charge receiving circuit 320, a battery charge management circuit 330, and a voltage switching circuit 200.
An output terminal of the power adapter 301 is connected to an input terminal of the voltage switching circuit 200, and supplies an input voltage Vin1 to the voltage switching circuit 200. An output terminal of the wireless charging receiving circuit 320 is connected to an input terminal of the voltage switching circuit 200, and provides an input voltage Vin2 to the voltage switching circuit 200 by receiving energy emitted from the wireless charger 302. The voltage switching circuit 200 is configured to compare the input voltages Vin1 and Vin2, and obtain a voltage vin_h at the output terminal according to the higher voltage of the input voltages Vin1 and Vin2. An input terminal of the battery charge management circuit 330 is connected to an output terminal of the voltage switching circuit 200, and an output terminal of the battery charge management circuit 330 is connected to the battery 303 for performing charge management on the battery 303 according to the voltage vin_h. The configuration of the voltage switching circuit 200 will be described in detail below with reference to fig. 2.
As shown in fig. 2, the voltage switching circuit 200 includes input terminals 201 and 202, an output terminal 203, transistors M1 and M2, and a switching module 210. Wherein the input terminals 201 and 202 are for receiving input voltages Vin1 and Vin2, respectively, and the voltage switching circuit 200 is for selectively transmitting voltages applied to the input terminal 201 and the input terminal 202 to the output terminal 203. The transistors M1 and M2 are implemented, for example, by P-type transistors, the transistor M1 being connected between the input terminal 201 and the output terminal 203, the transistor M2 being connected between the input terminal 202 and the output terminal 203, the switching module 210 being connected to the gates of the transistors M1 and M2 for controlling one of the transistors M1 and M2 to be turned on in accordance with a voltage difference between the input voltage Vin1 of the input terminal 201 and the input voltage Vin2 of the input terminal 202.
Specifically, the switching module 210 includes a zener diode Dz, a resistor R1, and transistors M3 and M4. The cathode of the zener diode Dz is connected to the output terminal 203, the anode is connected to the first end of the resistor R1, and the second end of the resistor R1 is grounded. The transistors M3 and M4 are implemented, for example, by P-type transistors, the gate of the transistor M3 being connected to the intermediate node of the zener diode Dz and the resistor R1, the source of the transistor M3 being connected to the gate of the transistor M1, and the drain of the transistor M3 being connected to the input voltage Vin2. The gate of the transistor M4 is connected to the intermediate node of the zener diode Dz and the resistor R1, the source of the transistor M4 is connected to the gate of the transistor M2, and the drain of the transistor M4 is connected to the input voltage Vin1.
The operating principle of the voltage switching circuit 200 of the present embodiment is as follows: when the input voltage Vin1 is greater than the input voltage Vin2, the substrate diode D1 of the transistor M1 is turned on, the substrate diode D2 of the transistor M2 is turned off, and the voltage vin_h=vin 1-VD1 of the output terminal 203 is the voltage drop of the substrate diode D1. In addition, the gate voltages v_g3 (G4) =vin_h-Vz of the transistors M3 and M4, where Vz is the zener voltage of the zener diode Dz, and since the gate voltages of the transistors M3 and M4 are lower than the voltage vin_h by one zener voltage, the transistors M3 and M4 are always in the on state, the transistor M3 transmits the input voltage Vin2 to the gate of the transistor M1, the transistor M4 transmits the input voltage Vin1 to the gate of the transistor M2, that is, the gate voltage v_g1=v2 of the transistor M1 at this time, the gate voltage v_g2=v1 of the transistor M2, and since the source voltage v_s1=vjh=v1-VD of the transistor M1, when vjh_vjv_2=vjvjv_m1, where vth_m1 is the channel of the transistor M1 is the on threshold value of the transistor M1, the voltage vjv_h=1 of the final output terminal 203 is in the off state, where vjv_vjv=vjv_2 is the gate voltage of the transistor M2.
Similarly, when the input voltage Vin2 is greater than the input voltage Vin1, the substrate diode D2 of the transistor M2 is turned on, the substrate diode D1 of the transistor M1 is turned off, and at this time, the voltage vin_h=vin 2-VD2 of the output terminal 203, where VD2 is the voltage drop of the substrate diode D2. Similarly, the gate voltages v_g3 (G4) =vin_h-Vz of the transistors M3 and M4, where Vz is the zener voltage of the zener diode Dz, and since the gate voltages of the transistors M3 and M4 are lower than the voltage vin_h by one zener voltage, the transistors M3 and M4 are always in the on state, the transistor M3 transmits the input voltage Vin2 to the gate of the transistor M1, the transistor M4 transmits the input voltage Vin1 to the gate of the transistor M2, that is, the gate voltage v_g1=v2 of the transistor M1, the gate voltage v_g2=v1 of the transistor M2, and since the source voltage v_s2=vjvjh=v2-VD of the transistor M2, when vjh-vjvjvjv_2-vjvjv > vjv 2-vjv 2, where vjv_m2 is the on threshold of the transistor M2, the voltage vjv_vjv 2 of the transistor M2 is the channel of the transistor M2, and the voltage vjv_vjv=vjv 2 of the transistor M1 is the gate voltage v_vjv=vjv 2.
As can be seen from the above, the voltage switching circuit 200 of the present invention can automatically turn on the corresponding transistor when the voltage difference between the input voltages Vin1 and Vin2 is greater than the on threshold of the transistor by the way of controlling the gates, and the voltage loss of the diode is removed by the channel conduction of the transistor, so as to reduce the working voltage of the chip and the overall power of the system, and therefore, the latch-up effect caused by the forward bias of the diode will not occur.
In addition, the transistors M3 and M4 in the embodiment of the present invention may also be used as clamping transistors, so that when the voltage difference between the input voltages Vin1 and Vin2 is too large, the gate-source voltages of the transistors M1 and M2 are clamped within a safe voltage range (for example, 5V, and the gate withstand voltages of most high-voltage transistors do not exceed 5V), thereby avoiding damage to the transistors M1 and M2. Taking the clamping of the transistor M3 as an example, since the transistor M3 is a P-type transistor and the transistor M3 is always in an on state, the source voltage of the transistor M3 cannot be lower than the gate voltage, and the gate voltage v_g3=vin_h-vz=v1-VD 1-Vz of the transistor M3, so when the input voltage Vin1-Vin2> 5V, the source voltage of the transistor M3 (i.e. the gate voltage of the transistor M1) becomes vjn 1-VD1-vz+vth_m3, wherein vth_m3 is the threshold voltage of the transistor M3, thereby clamping the gate-source voltage of the transistor M1 within 5V of the safety range and avoiding the damage of the transistor M1.
With continued reference to fig. 3, the wireless charging receiving circuit 320 includes an LC dual resonant circuit, an ASK modulation circuit, an FSK demodulation circuit, and a synchronous rectification filter circuit, which are formed by coils and capacitors. The energy sent by the wireless charger is received through the LC double-resonance circuit and is converted into direct current through the synchronous rectification filter circuit to work by the wireless charging receiving module. The ASK modulation circuit is used for transmitting data to the wireless charger by the wireless charging receiving end. The FSK demodulation circuit is used for receiving data sent to the wireless charging receiving end by the wireless charger.
The battery charge management circuit 330 performs trickle, constant current and constant voltage charging on the battery, and monitors the voltage, current and temperature of the battery in real time, so as to prevent the battery from being damaged by excessive charge and discharge or over-temperature.
It should be noted that, the wireless charging receiving circuit 320 and the battery charging management circuit 330 in the present invention are common circuits in the art, and will not be described in detail herein.
In summary, the voltage switching circuit of the present invention can automatically turn on the corresponding transistor when the voltage difference between the voltages of the input terminals is greater than the on threshold of the transistor by the mutual control of the gates of the two transistors, and removes the voltage loss of the diode by the channel conduction of the transistor, so as to reduce the working voltage of the chip and the overall power of the system, and therefore, the latch-up effect caused by the forward bias of the diode will not occur.
In addition, the voltage switching circuit also comprises a clamping transistor, so that the gate-source voltage of the transistor can be clamped in a safe voltage range when the voltage difference between the voltages of the input terminals is overlarge, and the damage of the transistor is avoided.
