Embodiment
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing and implementation example the utility model is further specified.
The utility model is by temperature setting 1, temperature acquisition 2, PID (proportion integration differentiation) controller 3, PWM (width modulation) analog line driver 4, filtering circuit 5, and totally five parts are formed.
Temperature setting portion is divided 1 setting of finishing the working temperature of system core parts needs.In order to guarantee temperature accuracy, adopt digital form, by μ C (microcontroller) or PC, control one 12 D/A, the working temperature that the output of D/A will be reached corresponding to system core parts (semiconductor laser, non-refrigerating infrared focal plane etc.), the output of D/A is exactly temperature setting signal.
Temperature acquisition part 2 is made up of temperature sensor, driving source.Common temperature sensor has thermistor, thermopair, crystal diode and temperature sensor chip that some are integrated, and driving source then is constant current source or constant pressure source.With modal thermistor is example, with a constant current source as its driving source, because the resistance value of thermistor changes with the conversion of temperature, then the change in voltage at its two ends can be reacted the temperature of core devices, and traditional bridge circuit detected temperatures, need at least 3 high-precision resistance like that, and have the linearizing problem of vs. temperature, precision is not high.
PID controller 3 is compared temperature setting signal with the temperature signal (voltages at thermistor two ends) of collection, its differential signal produces the TEC control signal through the PID computing.The realization of PID controller is very simple, only needs an operational amplifier, and 2 electric capacity and a resistance get final product.
Pwm power driver 4 is made up of the field benefit pipe drive part of signal input amplifier stage, PWM controller, H bridge construction.Now had the single integrated chip of finishing these 3 functions to select, modulating frequency can reach 1MHz.The output of PID controller is as the input signal of pwm power driver, and the pwm signal that is produced by the pwm power driver is wave circuit 5 after filtration at last, drives TEC, finishes temperature control.Systematic schematic diagram is seen Fig. 1.
Illustrate below.
The temperature setting portion branch: 12 D/A has a lot of selections, as AD7390, LTC1658 or the like.
The temperature acquisition part: in optical communication and non refrigerating infrared imaging technology, the temperature sensor in semiconductor laser and the non-refrigerating infrared focal plane is generally thermistor.Driving source then generally can be selected the constant current source of 100uA, as REF200.And the PID controller architecture is very simple, only needs an operational amplifier, is convenient to realize.Now use the AMC7820 chip of TI (TIX).AMC7820 is integrated one 8 12 analog to digital converters of passage (ADC), 3 12 figure place weighted-voltage D/A converters (DAC), 9 operational amplifiers, 1 thermal control current source, 1 inside+2.5V voltage reference and 1 SPI serial line interface in small-sized TQFP-48 encapsulation.AMC7820 can finish temperature setting, temperature acquisition and PID and control this 3 big function.The integrated level of system is greatly improved.
Selecting temperature coefficient (TCR) is 10ppm/ ℃, and precision is 0.1% 100K Ω precision resistance, and the constant current source output of AMC7820 is 100uA.For thermistor provide lasting accuracy very high electric current, make the voltage at thermistor two ends represent the actual temperature of the refrigeration device of wanting.
For the ease of observation and easy to use, the setting of temperature is finished by PC.Software section utilizes VisualBasic6.0 to write and forms, may operate on the PC based on windows platform (Windows 95,98, NT, 2000), the equilibrium temperature that need reach can be set easily, each register value of AMC7820 can be detected simultaneously.PC links to each other with the parallel port data line of circuit board by IEEE1284 25 pins, and by the DACO of parallel port with synchronous serial interface (SPI) communication mode control AMC7820, the output voltage of DACO is represented the temperature that will set.
PID controller part is by the operational amplifier OPA7 of AMC7820 and resistance, capacity cell are finished on every side.Element C1, the C2 of PID control loop, R2 parameter are determined jointly by the performance (thermal enhancement and time constant) of TEC, the gain of pwm power driver and the response of loop.For certain specific T EC, performance index are V Max=2V, I Max=1.5A, C1 and C2 get 1uF, and R2 gets 1M Ω, and when design temperature was 25 ℃, 20 seconds stabilization time, overshoot 20% had obtained satisfied effect.The control voltage V that obtains TEC is regulated in the voltage at temperature sensor two ends and the output of DACO through analog pid TEC
Temperature controlled last ring of TEC is the pwm power driver portion.The chip that can select has LTC1923, DRV591, DRV592, DRV593, DRV594 etc.The DRV593 chip that in the utility model, adopts TI company to produce.
DRV593 is that maximum output current reaches ± the pwm power driver of 3A, can provide bidirectional current to TEC, and pulse width modulation frequency reaches 500KHZ, and efficient is very high.Therefore chip integration has become H bridge-type field benefit pipe in addition, can directly drive and need not to increase adjunct circuit powerful TEC.The gain amplifier that it is pointed out that DRV593 is 2.34, and there is following relational expression in its output voltage:
V OUT=V PWM-V H/C=2.34(V IN+-V IN-)=2.34(V TEC-V REF)
V wherein PWM, V H/CBe two output signals of DRV593, V IN+, V IN-Be two input signal, the corresponding V of difference TEC(output signal of PID controller) and V REF(reference voltage of AMC7820 output is 2.5V).The DRV593 principle of work is V TECGreater than V REFThe time, electric current flows to the TEC negative terminal from the TEC anode, and TEC is operated in refrigerating state; Otherwise, V TECLess than V REFThe time, TEC then is operated in the state of heating.In order to make the output V of DRV593 OUTBe no more than the maximum voltage V of TEC operate as normal Max, for example, to a certain TEC, performance index are V Max=2V, then V TECShould be between 1.66V and 3.35V.So between the output stage of PID controller and pwm power driver, carried out the holding circuit design.Principle is to utilize operational amplifier and diode to form amplitude limiter circuit to V TECCarry out clamper.Because V TECBound is arranged, thus twin-channel amplifier adopted, as OPA2134, and peripheral cell resistance and diode pair V TECPressure limiting should be considered the conduction pipe pressure drop of diode during to resistance value.
The output pwm signal of DRV593 provides direct current to export to TEC after LC filtering.Layout and wires design in this subelement are meticulous, can very effective switch noise inhibiting.Because resource is a lot of on the sheet of AMC7820, so utilize its ADC6 and ADC7 to monitor the voltage and the electric current that flows through TEC at TEC two ends respectively, the working condition of record TEC makes things convenient for the analysis of experimental result.
The whole temperature controlling Design of system is finished.
Utilize the Wuhan Institute of Post and Telecommunication's device 1550nm of institute single mode semiconductor laser as tested object, the performance index of its TEC are V Max=2V, I Max=1.5A.Temperature sensor is 10K Ω for nominal value in the time of 25 ℃, negative temperature coefficient (NTC) is-4.4%/℃ thermistor.The constant current source of 100 μ A is 1V in the pressure drop at 10K thermistor two ends in the time of 25 ℃, so the heat sensitivity of thermistor is 44mV/ ℃ (25 ℃ of at).When design temperature was 25 ℃, thermistor voltage fluctuateed between 1.00097V to 1.00130V, and maximum fluctuation 0.33mV, temperature control precision reach 0.025 ℃, and long-time temperature stabilization precision reaches ± and 0.005 ℃, result such as Fig. 8 show.
Temperature sensor commonly used also has the silicon sensor of thermopair, RTD temperature sensor, PN junction type.Because the thermal control current source of AMC7820 can easily be set the output current of 10 μ A to 1000 μ A, so can design thermometric interface circuit easily at the different temperatures sensor, and major control partly need not to change, so the temperature-controlled process of this TEC has practical use widely, and not only is confined to the field that temperature sensor is a thermistor.Can be according to application need, only need to use microcontroller, replace PC as single-chip microcomputers such as 80C51 series, MSP430 series, 68HC series, finish SPI mouth communication function with AMC7820, the temperature that setting needs refrigeration device to reach, be convenient to the system integration and secondary development, can extensively apply to the temperature stabilization control of non-refrigerating infrared focal plane in semiconductor laser that optical communication uses and the infrared imaging.
