- the output characteristic curve shown in FIG. 2 basically increases steadily and monotonously with an increasing control voltage V CO NT RO L; see the solid line in Fig. 2.
- V O UT for control voltage values VC O NTRO L which are below a lower limit voltage VL I MITI or above an upper limit voltage V IMI T2, cut off and to a defined one , low output voltage value is limited. As a result, this leads to an output voltage V O U T.
- the output characteristic should be particularly suitable for power supply units, battery charging devices and the like, and more particularly for use in telecommunication devices.
- a circuit for generating an output characteristic curve which has a constant voltage control circuit which receives a supply voltage and generates a constant output voltage.
- This constant voltage control loop can essentially correspond to the programmable reference voltage generator of FIG. 1.
- the invention provides that the constant voltage control loop with a current to connect the lower section, which receives a control voltage and, depending on it, generates a control current which causes a change in the output voltage, in particular in order to bring about a monotonous steady rise or fall in the output voltage.
- the invention further provides a limiter section connected to the current sink section, which receives a lower and an upper limit voltage and can selectively block or release the current sink section depending on this. The limiter section thus makes it possible to selectively switch the influencing of the output voltage of the constant voltage control circuit by the current sink section on and off.
- the invention provides a structurally and circuit-technically simple solution that can be largely integrated and implemented inexpensively in order to generate a predetermined, adjustable output characteristic with high accuracy and stability.
- the invention achieves this by using a stable, programmable reference voltage generator, which generates a fixed, constant output voltage, and adding a variable current sink in order to make the output voltage characteristic curve adjustable, and a limiter in order to be able to further influence, in particular trim, the output characteristic curve.
- the supply voltage of the circuit according to the invention can vary widely, e.g. in the range of 20%, according to the invention an output characteristic curve with an accuracy of +/- 0.1% to 5% can be achieved, depending on the accuracy of the components used.
- a programmable reference voltage generator is preferably used in the constant voltage control loop, the output voltage of which can be set via a voltage divider.
- the above-mentioned AS 2431 shunt regulator from ASTEC Semiconductor or a corresponding component, for example from Alpha Semiconductor or Texas Instruments, can be used as the reference voltage generator.
- ASTEC Semiconductor or a corresponding component, for example from Alpha Semiconductor or Texas Instruments, can be used as the reference voltage generator.
- the invention is not restricted to a specific module.
- the voltage divider is preferably divided into a first ohmic section with two resistors and a second ohmic section with a resistor in order to be able to influence the adjustable output characteristic in a particularly simple manner, as will be explained further below.
- the current sink section has a resistor connected in series with one of the two resistors of the first ohmic section, so that the control current of the current sink section flows through these two series connected resistors to give the output voltage a voltage proportional to the control current to overlay. Depending on the configuration of the current sink section, this can lead to an increase or decrease in the output voltage.
- the current sink section is preferably activated via a first switching element contained therein in order to selectively enable or disable the control current.
- This switching element is preferably activated via the limiter section.
- the limiter section can have a comparator that receives the lower and the upper limit voltage and the control voltage and generates a comparator output signal. This comparator output signal activates or deactivates the current sink section via the first switching element.
- the limiter section can contain a bypass circuit, which is also released or blocked depending on the comparator output signal.
- the limiter section is preferably designed so that it deactivates the current sink section when the control voltage is less than the lower limit voltage or greater than the upper limit voltage, and otherwise releases it. Furthermore, the limiter section can have a second switching element, which likewise receives the comparator output signal and optionally enables or blocks the bypass circuit.
- the bypass circuit has a resistor which is connected in parallel to the one of the two resistors of the first ohmic section of the voltage divider of the constant voltage control circuit. The bypass circuit is activated when the control voltage is less than the lower limit voltage or greater than the upper limit voltage and is otherwise blocked.
- the output characteristic of the circuit for control voltages that lie outside the interval between the lower and the upper limit voltage can be reduced to a defined, constant voltage value.
- a corresponding modification of the limiter circuit for example by hen a series connection instead of the parallel connection of the bypass circuit, it is also possible to raise the output voltage of the circuit to a defined, constant value.
- the invention also provides a method for generating an output characteristic curve with the following method steps: generating a constant output voltage as a function of a supply voltage and a reference voltage; Generating a control current depending on a control voltage and changing the output voltage depending on the control current; and optionally enabling or disabling the control current depending on whether the control voltage is within or outside an interval between a lower and an upper limit voltage.
