Embodiment
Relevant detailed content of the present invention and technology now are described as follows with regard to conjunction with figs.:
The present invention is a kind of flash lamp circuit with an automatic light meter, and at first by explanation system of the present invention among Fig. 1, this figure is the module rack composition of flash lamp circuit with an automatic light meter proposed by the invention, is described as follows:
(1) the flashlight charging unit 110, and it is in order to charging action of control main capacitance, the beginning that just decides the charging action according to the voltage of main capacitance with stop, but make the voltage of main capacitance be in operating state all the time.When main capacitance voltage is lower than 270V, promptly begin the charging action, when main capacitance voltage arrives 300V, promptly stop the charging action.
(2) flash of light start unit 120 in order to receive the flash control signal that the user sends, is carried out the startup of flash of light according to this flash control signal.Comprising a direct current transducer IC, in one group of Darlington circuit is arranged, in order to the control signal that flashes, by control Darlington circuit current value come the charging rate of control capacitance.The size of current of Darlington circuit is controlled by a resistance, adds a high-speed switch diode simultaneously, to regulate the frequency of oscillation of direct current transducer.
(3) flash lamp tube 130, in order to the light that flashes, and the irradiation subject.
(4) the photometry unit 140, and it is in order to receiving the reverberation of subject, and should catoptrical light energy convert the signal of telecommunication to.
(5) integrating circuit 150, receive this signal of telecommunication, and export a signal of telecommunication that is directly proportional with this flash of light light value, and it comprises a dimming resistor, in order to regulating the resistance of this integrating circuit, thereby regulate the output of this integrating circuit.
(6) flash of light fader control unit 160, in order to receiving the signal of telecommunication of this integrating circuit, when the flash of light light value of this signal of telecommunication correspondence reaches exposure and requires, extinguish flash lamp tube.
See also Fig. 2, this figure is the circuit diagram of the embodiment of the invention.Behind the formula photoflash lamp full charge with an automatic light meter, the flash synchronizing contact on the camera is connected flasher circuit.Between the photoflash lamp light emission period, light sends from photoflash lamp and shines on the subject, reflects from subject to enter on camera (exposure) and the flash of light photometry element.This photometry element is very fast to be transformed into signal of telecommunication input integral circuit with light energy, again by signal of telecommunication that is directly proportional with the flash of light light value of integrating circuit output, when the flash of light light value reaches requiring of proper exposure amount, the output signal of telecommunication of integrating circuit just makes control circuit trigger flashing halt circuit, thereby makes blinker cancellation.Because the lasting flash time of photoflash lamp is very short, carry out light modulation to it, used photometry element must be the light-sensitive element with capability of fast response.
See also Fig. 3, because the difference that main capacitance is selected, therefore needs are adjusted the resistance of RC integrating circuit, and to 0.1uF, R424 is by 1K to 200 by 0.47uF for C410, but the VR of SMT is difficult accent, because of the circumference difference.If the too little numerical value of VR, electrorheological is big, makes curve deformation easily.Therefore we are at VR one termination one resistance, make VR do when fine setting can be so sensitive, for example: VR is 10K, changeing a little may be exactly the scope earthquake of 1K, sensitive, and 2K may have only 200 ohm mobility scale, more insensitive, for the photoflash lamp light adjusting circuit, its sensitivity is very high, so our connect again resistance of a 8.2K ohm of the VR of the 10K ohm VR that becomes 2K ohm originally.Initial setting with an automatic light meter is like this adjusted easily, and light modulation is more accurate.
Traditional flashing control circuit charges with transistor controls, and the outage after being full of, and the present invention uses the IC transducer.See also Fig. 4, it is a DC/DC transducer, come the speed of control capacitance charging via the current value of control Darlington (Darlington), the size of current of Darlington is to be limited by one 0.11 ohm resistance, this part can also add a high-speed switch diode and 3904 collocation come Control and Feedback to go into the voltage (being come out by the VCC3 dividing potential drop) of IC, to regulate the frequency of oscillation of this direct current transducer.
See also Fig. 5, Darlington circuit at IC is in order to provide enough big electric current to come boosted voltage through transformer, direct current transducer produces an interchange PWM AC signal and still be AC signal after transformer boosts, need rectification through diode, so that big electric capacity is charged, charging voltage should arrive 300V, the judgement that stops the charging action herein is to be the Zener diode of 270V by a breakdown voltage, when reaching 270V, produce the collapse action, this moment, voltage can be stabilized in 30V, needed two places of control this moment: one needs dividing potential drop to be fed back in the corresponding adjuster (Reference Regulator) of IC, dividing potential drop is controlled at 1.25V, the action that can stop charging this moment; Its two, the signal (originally for high voltage, transfer low-voltage behind the Ready to) that sends Strobe_Ready via the branch pressure-controlled 3904 of secondary gives CPU again.Adopt the accurate dividing potential drop mode IC that arranges in pairs or groups to do the feedback of voltage, make entire circuit more stable, move more accurate.
Though the present invention with aforesaid preferred embodiment openly as above; right its is not in order to limit the present invention; those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention; when can doing a little change and retouching, so protection scope of the present invention should be looked being as the criterion that accompanying Claim defines.
