The RTC module power supply circuit 10 that the first aspect of the embodiment of this application provided, the first power VCC that will be used for RTC module 20 power supply is connected to tank circuit 200 through charging circuit 100, when RTC module 20 power supply is given to first power VCC, charge for tank circuit 200 simultaneously, tank circuit 200 falls when first power VCC falls, give RTC module 20 power supply as the second power, guarantee that RTC module 20 lasts normal work, voltage stabilizing circuit 300 can be under the condition that tank circuit 200 is full of the electricity, stabilize the voltage on tank circuit 200, can effectively avoid tank circuit 200 overcharging, the complicated and easily existing problem of overcharging of traditional RTC module power supply circuit structure has been solved.
Referring to fig. 2, in an embodiment, the energy storage circuit 200 includes an energy storage battery 210, a positive electrode of the energy storage battery 210 is connected to the output terminal of the charging circuit 100, and a positive electrode of the energy storage battery 210 is further connected to the RTC module 20, wherein the energy storage battery 210 may be a single battery V1. In some embodiments, the energy storage battery 210 may also be composed of a plurality of batteries connected in series or in parallel. The number of batteries included in the energy storage battery 210 may be set as needed. For example, the required power can be determined by maintaining the maximum operable time of the RTC module 20 and the overall power consumption in the corresponding mode according to the requirement, and how many batteries need to be connected in parallel to obtain the operating voltage can also be designed according to the operating voltage of the RTC module 20. The energy storage battery 210 can store electric energy as a backup power supply of the RTC module 20, the energy storage battery 210 can be repeatedly charged and discharged for use, and the electric quantity is exhausted, i.e. the charging circuit 100 can be used for charging, so as to maintain the normal timing function of the RTC module 20.
Referring to fig. 2, in one embodiment, the energy storage battery 210 is a rechargeable button battery. For example, a 2V rechargeable button cell battery may be selected. The rechargeable button battery has low voltage and low charging current, and the charging current can meet the charging requirement at mA level, so that the whole power consumption is low, and the whole equipment cannot be subjected to large power consumption.

Referring to fig. 3, in one embodiment, the charging circuit 100 includes a first diode D1, and the voltage regulator circuit 300 includes a first resistor R1. The anode of the first diode D1 is used for being connected with a first power VCC, and the cathode of the first diode D1 is respectively connected with the voltage stabilizing circuit 300 and the energy storage circuit 200. A first end of the first resistor R1 is connected to a negative electrode of the first diode D1, and a second end of the first resistor R1 is grounded. The first diode D1 of the charging circuit 100 may provide a charging loop for the tank circuit 200, so as to charge the tank circuit 200. The first diode D1 also has another function, that is, it can prevent the energy storage circuit 200 from reversely supplying power to the first power VCC when the first power VCC stops supplying power. Usually, the first power VCC directly or indirectly supplies power to the RTC module 20, and at this time, when the first power VCC also supplies power to other modules, if the voltage in the energy storage circuit 200 flows back into the first power VCC, the device may not normally shut down the corresponding module, resulting in abnormality of the device. Therefore, the voltage of the energy storage circuit 200 can be effectively prevented from flowing backwards through the first diode D1, and the normal operation of the device is ensured.
In some other embodiments, the charging circuit 100 may further use a voltage dividing resistor, wherein the function of the voltage dividing resistor is similar to that of the first diode D1 in the above embodiments, the charging circuit 100 may further include other voltage dividing resistors on the basis of the first diode D1, the charging circuit 100 is configured to provide a charging loop between the first power source VCC and the energy storage circuit 200, and the specific circuit structure of the charging circuit 100 may include circuit elements such as diodes, resistors, and the like. The voltage regulator circuit 300 may also use a voltage regulator tube, wherein the function of the voltage regulator tube is similar to the first resistor R1 in the above-described embodiment. The specific circuit structures of the charging circuit 100 and the voltage stabilizing circuit 300 provided in the embodiments of the present application are not to be construed as limiting the present application.
When the tank circuit 200 is fully charged, the voltage across the tank circuit 200 is higher relative to the voltage of the tank circuit 200 when the tank circuit is not fully charged, and the charging current flowing through the tank circuit 200 is relatively small. Correspondingly, the voltage drop of the first diode D1 is related to the flowing current, and when the current is small enough to be ignored, the voltage drop of the first diode D1 is uncertain, so that most of the voltage of the first power VCC is output to the energy storage circuit 200, the voltage on the energy storage circuit 200 is higher than the full-power voltage of the energy storage circuit 200, and the problem of overcharge occurs. Therefore, in this embodiment, by adding the voltage stabilizing circuit 300, the first resistor R1 in the voltage stabilizing circuit 300 can ensure that when the battery in the energy storage circuit 200 is no longer charged, the current of the first diode D1 can still pass through the first resistor R1, thereby ensuring that the current flowing through the first diode D1 can also ensure the voltage drop across the first diode D1, that is, the divided voltage across the first diode D1 can be equal to the input voltage of the first power VCC minus the voltage across the battery V1, thereby stabilizing the voltage across the battery V1 and avoiding the occurrence of the overcharge problem.
Referring to fig. 4, in an embodiment, the RTC module power supply circuit 10 further includes a current limiting circuit 400, and the current limiting circuit 400 is connected in series between the charging circuit 100 and the energy storage circuit 200 for limiting a current when the charging circuit 100 charges the energy storage circuit 200, so as to improve circuit stability.

In some embodiments, the RTC module power supply circuit 10 may not be provided with the isolation circuit 500.
Referring to fig. 5, in an embodiment, the RTC module power supply circuit 10 further includes an anti-reverse circuit 600, the anti-reverse circuit 600 is respectively connected to the energy storage circuit 200 and the input end of the voltage stabilizing circuit 300, and the anti-reverse circuit 600 is used for preventing the electric energy of the energy storage circuit 200 from being output to the voltage stabilizing circuit 300. In one embodiment, referring to fig. 5, a current limiting circuit 400 is further disposed between the anti-reflection circuit 600 and the tank circuit 200, and an isolation circuit 500 is further disposed between the anti-reflection circuit 600 and the voltage stabilizing circuit 300. In one embodiment, the positions of the anti-kickback circuit 600 and the current limit circuit 400 shown in fig. 5 may be interchanged.

It is understood that the anti-reverse circuit 600 functions to prevent the electric power of the tank circuit 200 from being output to the voltage stabilizing circuit 300, and thus the positions of the anti-reverse circuit 600 and the current limiting circuit 400 shown in fig. 5 may be interchanged, i.e., the positions of the third diode D3 and the current limiting resistor R2 may be interchanged.
