It is of course also possible to extend to more operating situations, for example, when some electronic components need to operate without exceeding a specific temperature, this may be done by the method of the present embodiment, or in the case of an ECU, if the number of ECU channels is already full.
The current derating method provided by the embodiment can greatly improve the derating precision, greatly reduce the error, and can control the rate of current reduction, and the final derating is also greatly improved.
PTC: positive Temperature Coefficient Thermistor, chinese is commonly referred to as ptc thermistor, whose resistance increases with increasing ambient temperature, is commonly used in applications such as over-current protection in circuits, temperature control, constant temperature heating, etc.
NTC: negative Temperature Coefficient Thermistor, chinese is commonly referred to as negative temperature coefficient thermistor, and the resistance value of the element decreases with increasing ambient temperature, and is commonly used for applications such as overcurrent protection in circuits, temperature control, constant temperature heating, and the like.
The circuit of the embodiment comprises a chip, wherein a reference source is required to be selected as a type of current by a chip IC; in addition, the temperature sensor also comprises a resistor (which can be a positive temperature coefficient thermistor, a negative temperature coefficient thermistor or a plurality of resistors), the thermistor is selected in the embodiment, the resistance value of the thermistor changes along with the temperature, as shown by a PTC temperature and resistance value curve in fig. 2, when the temperature reaches a certain temperature, the resistance value of the thermistor shows a relatively uniform change trend along with the temperature, and in the embodiment, the chip directly reads the thermistor by utilizing the characteristic of the thermistor, so that the over-temperature protection is completed; on the other hand, the circuit of the embodiment further comprises a built-in circuit, which is configured inside the chip and used for controlling whether the thermistor (or a plurality of resistors) is interposed, and mirroring the input voltage into the IC circuit after the thermistor (or a plurality of resistors) is interposed, thereby completing the control of the output current of the IC.
The external circuit firstly uses 2 operational amplifiers to make different effects. One is to use an operational amplifier as a voltage comparator to control whether the PTC is interposed, and the other is to use an operational amplifier as a voltage controller to mirror the input voltage into the IC circuit; as the external PTC resistance value increases along with the rise of the temperature, as shown in figure 2, the input voltage is increased, and the current of the IC end R (REF) is unchanged, so that the current output by the IC is reduced, the current deration is completed, and finally the high-temperature protection effect of the LED and other components is achieved.
