無電瓶發電機系統、電壓調節器及其過載保護電路 Batteryless generator system, voltage regulator and overload protection circuit

本發明有關於一種過載保護電路,且特別是一種適用於無電瓶發電機系統的電壓調節器及其過載保護電路。 The invention relates to an overload protection circuit, and in particular to a voltage regulator suitable for a batteryless generator system and an overload protection circuit thereof.

一般而言,目前的大眾交通工具(如公車或汽車巴士)內部通常設置有無電瓶發電機及有電瓶發電機,其中有電瓶發電機是與電瓶相連,並可於發電後供應電源給車上的電子設備,並或對所連接的電瓶進行充電;而無電瓶發電機未連接有電瓶,一般為車內空調設備專用的發電機。詳細地說,當使用者開啟風扇、冷氣等空調設備或其它需要額外電源的電器設備時,無電瓶發電機的調節器藉由有電瓶發電機所提供的激磁電流,驅動無電瓶發電機開始發電,進而使空調發電機能正常發電。 In general, current mass transit vehicles (such as buses or bus buses) are usually equipped with a battery generator and a battery generator. Among them, a battery generator is connected to the battery and can supply power to the vehicle after power generation. The electronic equipment, and or the battery connected to the battery is charged; and the battery generator is not connected to the battery, generally a generator dedicated to the air conditioning equipment in the vehicle. In detail, when the user turns on an air conditioner such as a fan or air conditioner or other electrical equipment that requires an additional power source, the regulator of the batteryless generator drives the batteryless generator to start power generation by the excitation current provided by the battery generator. In turn, the air conditioner generator can generate electricity normally.

然,值得注意的是,由於無電瓶發電機未搭配有電瓶,所以不具警示燈的設計,因此當無電瓶發電機發生異常(例如輸出電源線脫落形成短路現象、發電機過載輸出或電機本身故障而導致電壓過低)時,使用者無法得知此異常現象的發生,因而無法立即採取相應的措施。如此,當無電瓶發電機發生異常且仍持續運轉時,可能會發生無電瓶發電機過熱運轉而損壞,甚至無電瓶發電機會因過熱運轉而起火燃燒,導致火燒車等危險情況。 However, it is worth noting that since the batteryless generator is not equipped with a battery, it does not have a warning light design, so when there is an abnormality in the batteryless generator (for example, the output power line is disconnected to form a short circuit, the generator overload output or the motor itself is faulty). When the voltage is too low, the user cannot know the occurrence of this abnormal phenomenon, and therefore the corresponding measures cannot be taken immediately. In this way, when the battery-free generator is abnormal and continues to operate, the battery-free generator may be overheated and damaged, and even the battery-free generator may be ignited due to overheating, resulting in dangerous situations such as burning the car.

本發明實施例在於提供一種電壓調節器及其過載保護電路,可於無電瓶發電機發生異常時,自動迫使無電瓶發電機停止輸出電能,以避免發生無電瓶發電機因過熱而起火的現象。 Embodiments of the present invention provide a voltage regulator and an overload protection circuit thereof, which can automatically force a batteryless generator to stop outputting power when an abnormality occurs in a batteryless generator to avoid a phenomenon in which a batteryless generator is ignited due to overheating.

The overload protection circuit includes a voltage detection circuit and a first switching element. The voltage detecting circuit is coupled between the batteryless generator and the ground. The first switching element is coupled to the voltage detecting circuit and the ground. The voltage detection circuit detects the output voltage of the batteryless generator and generates a voltage detection signal. When the output voltage of the batteryless generator is less than the threshold value, the first switching element is turned on to stop the battery generator from outputting electrical energy.

The voltage regulator is suitable for a batteryless generator and includes a voltage regulating circuit and an overload protection circuit. A voltage regulating circuit is coupled to the batteryless generator. The overload protection circuit is coupled to the batteryless generator, the voltage regulating circuit and the ground terminal. The voltage regulating circuit is used to generate an enable signal. The overload protection circuit is configured to receive the start signal and detect whether the output voltage of the batteryless generator is greater than, equal to, or less than a threshold value. When the overload protection circuit detects that the output voltage continues to be less than the threshold value, the overload protection circuit outputs a protection signal to the voltage regulation circuit after a delay time according to the startup signal, and the voltage regulation circuit causes the battery-free generator to stop output according to the protection signal. Electrical energy.

本發明實施例又提供一種無電瓶發電機系統。所述無電瓶發電機系統包括無電瓶發電機及電壓調節器。無電瓶發電機耦接至少一負載。電壓調節器耦接所述無電瓶發電機,用以偵測無電瓶發電機的輸出電壓。當電壓調節器持續偵測到輸出電壓小於門檻值時,電壓調節器於一延遲時間後使無電瓶發電機停止輸出電能。 The embodiment of the invention further provides a batteryless generator system. The batteryless generator system includes a batteryless generator and a voltage regulator. The batteryless generator is coupled to at least one load. The voltage regulator is coupled to the batteryless generator for detecting an output voltage of the batteryless generator. When the voltage regulator continuously detects that the output voltage is less than the threshold value, the voltage regulator stops the battery generator from outputting power after a delay time.

綜上所述,本發明實施例所提出之電壓調節器及其過載保護電路,於無電瓶發電機的發生異常時,可自動強制無電瓶發電機停止運作,並且可進一步透過延遲電路延遲導通第一開關元件,而可避免過載保護電路的誤動作。 In summary, the voltage regulator and the overload protection circuit thereof according to the embodiments of the present invention can automatically force the battery-free generator to stop operating when an abnormality occurs in the battery-free generator, and can further delay the conduction through the delay circuit.

At the time of the value, the delay circuit receives the start signal. If the voltage detecting circuit continuously detects that the output voltage of the batteryless generator is less than the threshold value, the delay circuit outputs the overload protection signal to the first switching element after a delay time according to the continuously received starting signal.

In this way, the overload protection circuit can automatically force the battery-free generator to stop operating when an abnormality occurs in the battery-free generator.

〔無電瓶發電機系統的實施例〕 [Example of a batteryless generator system]

請參照圖1,圖1是本發明實施例提供的無電瓶發電機系統的功能方塊圖。無電瓶發電機系統1包括電壓調節器11及無電瓶發電機13。電壓調節器11耦接無電瓶發電機13。 Please refer to FIG. 1. FIG. 1 is a functional block diagram of a batteryless generator system according to an embodiment of the present invention. The batteryless generator system 1 includes a voltage regulator 11 and a batteryless generator 13. The voltage regulator 11 is coupled to the batteryless generator 13.

電壓調節器11接收外部電源IG,並對應產生激磁電流I至無電瓶發電機13,促使無電瓶發電機13開始發電。此外,電壓調節器11可偵測無電瓶發電機13的輸出電壓B,以判斷無電瓶發電機13是否發生異常。若電壓調節器11判斷無電瓶發電機13發生異常,則自動強制無電瓶發電機13停止運轉,避免發生無電瓶發電機13過熱燒毀的現象。值得注意的是,於無電瓶發電機13開始發電後,電壓調節器11還可用以對應調節無電瓶發電機13的發電量。 The voltage regulator 11 receives the external power source IG and correspondingly generates an exciting current I to the batteryless generator 13, causing the batteryless generator 13 to start generating electricity. Further, the voltage regulator 11 can detect the output voltage B of the batteryless generator 13 to determine whether or not the battery generator 13 is abnormal. If the voltage regulator 11 determines that an abnormality has occurred in the batteryless generator 13, the battery generator 13 is automatically forcibly stopped to prevent the battery generator 13 from being overheated and burned. It is worth noting that after the battery-free generator 13 starts generating electricity, the voltage regulator 11 can also be used to adjust the amount of power generated by the battery-free generator 13.

無電瓶發電機13連接有至少一負載(未繪示),例如為風扇及冷氣等空調設備,以供電給所連接的負載。值得注意的是,本發明並不限制負載的可能態樣。 The batteryless generator 13 is connected to at least one load (not shown), such as an air conditioner such as a fan and air conditioner, to supply power to the connected load. It is worth noting that the invention does not limit the possible aspects of the load.

進一步地說,電壓調節器11包括電壓調節電路110及過載保護電路120。在本實施例中,電壓調節電路110耦接產生外部電源IG的系統(未繪示),該系統例如為一有電瓶發電機;電壓調節電路110進一步耦接過載保護電路120及無電瓶發電機13之激磁線圈(未繪示)。過載保護電路120耦接無電瓶發電機13。 Further, the voltage regulator 11 includes a voltage regulation circuit 110 and an overload protection circuit 120. In this embodiment, the voltage regulating circuit 110 is coupled to a system (not shown) that generates an external power source IG, such as a battery generator; the voltage regulating circuit 110 is further coupled to the overload protection circuit 120 and the batteryless generator. 13 excitation coil (not shown). The overload protection circuit 120 is coupled to the batteryless generator 13.

電壓調節電路110接收外部電源IG及產生激磁電流I與啟動信號L。在本實施例中,電壓調節電路110係透過一外部開關(未繪示)耦接上述產生外部電源IG的系統。電壓調節電路110於外部開關被導通(即外部開關處於關閉(close)狀態)後,從該系統獲得外部電源IG。電壓調節電路110依據外部電源IG產生激磁電流I及啟動信號L。電壓調節電路110將激磁電流I傳送給無電瓶發電機13之激磁線圈,並藉由引擎帶動發電機轉子運轉進行磁場切割,而使得無電瓶發電機13開始發電。於無電瓶發電機13正常 發電後,電壓調節電路110可調整流經無電瓶發電機13之激磁線圈的電流,以對應控制無電瓶發電機13的發電量,並且電壓調節電路110可依據外部電源IG,產生高電壓準位的啟動信號L,並將啟動信號L傳送給保護電路120。 The voltage regulating circuit 110 receives the external power source IG and generates an exciting current I and an enable signal L. In this embodiment, the voltage regulating circuit 110 is coupled to the system for generating the external power source IG through an external switch (not shown). The voltage regulating circuit 110 obtains the external power source IG from the system after the external switch is turned on (ie, the external switch is in a closed state). The voltage adjustment circuit 110 generates an excitation current I and an enable signal L in accordance with the external power source IG. The voltage regulating circuit 110 transmits the exciting current I to the exciting coil of the batteryless generator 13, and drives the generator rotor to perform magnetic field cutting by the engine, so that the batteryless generator 13 starts generating electricity. No battery generator 13 is normal After the power generation, the voltage regulating circuit 110 can rectify the current through the excitation coil of the batteryless generator 13 to correspondingly control the amount of power generated by the batteryless generator 13, and the voltage regulating circuit 110 can generate a high voltage level according to the external power source IG. The enable signal L is transmitted to the protection circuit 120.

過載保護電路120偵測無電瓶發電機13的輸出電壓B是否小於一門檻值。當過載保護電路120偵測到無電瓶發電機13的輸出電壓B小於所述門檻值時,且確認無電瓶發電機13之異常現象成立後,過載保護電路120會根據高電壓準位的啟動信號L產生保護信號P。過載保護電路120將保護信號P傳送至電壓調節電路110,以讓電壓調節電路110強制使無電瓶發電機13停止輸出電能。 The overload protection circuit 120 detects whether the output voltage B of the batteryless generator 13 is less than a threshold value. When the overload protection circuit 120 detects that the output voltage B of the batteryless generator 13 is less than the threshold value, and confirms that the abnormal phenomenon of the batteryless generator 13 is established, the overload protection circuit 120 will activate the signal according to the high voltage level. L generates a protection signal P. The overload protection circuit 120 transmits the protection signal P to the voltage regulation circuit 110 to cause the voltage regulation circuit 110 to force the batteryless generator 13 to stop outputting electrical energy.

於上述實施例中,所述確認無電瓶發電機13之異常現象成立的方法例如設置一延遲電路並設定一延遲時間,即於該延遲時間內,過載保護電路120持續偵測到無電瓶發電機13的輸出電壓B小於該門檻值時,過載保護電路120才產生並傳送保護信號P至電壓調節電路110,以避免誤判。然實際上並不一定需要設置該延遲電路,即,當過載保護電路120偵測到無電瓶發電機13的輸出電壓B小於所述門檻值時,即產生並傳送保護信號P至電壓調節電路110。 In the above embodiment, the method for confirming that the abnormality of the batteryless generator 13 is established is, for example, setting a delay circuit and setting a delay time during which the overload protection circuit 120 continuously detects the batteryless generator. When the output voltage B of 13 is less than the threshold value, the overload protection circuit 120 generates and transmits the protection signal P to the voltage regulation circuit 110 to avoid false positives. Actually, it is not necessary to provide the delay circuit, that is, when the overload protection circuit 120 detects that the output voltage B of the batteryless generator 13 is less than the threshold value, the protection signal P is generated and transmitted to the voltage adjustment circuit 110. .

於上述實施例中,無電瓶發電機系統1例如為車用空調設備的無電瓶發電機系統,但實際應用上不限於此,任何未配置電瓶的發電機系統皆可使用本發明提出的過載保護電路來進行過載保護。 In the above embodiment, the batteryless generator system 1 is, for example, a batteryless generator system for a vehicle air conditioner, but the practical application is not limited thereto, and any generator system not equipped with a battery can use the overload protection proposed by the present invention. The circuit is used for overload protection.

接下來,將更進一步地描述過載保護電路120的相關細節。請參照圖2,圖2是本發明實施例提供的過載保護電路之細部電路示意圖。過載保護電路120包括電壓偵測電路121、開關元件122、限流元件123、延遲電路124及開關元件125。電壓偵測電路121耦接於無電瓶發電機13及接地端GND之間。開關元件122 耦接電壓偵測電路121、限流元件123、延遲電路124及接地端GND。限流元件123耦接電壓調節電路110。延遲電路124耦接開關元件125及接地端GND。開關元件125耦接於電壓調節電路110與接地端GND之間。 Next, relevant details of the overload protection circuit 120 will be further described. Please refer to FIG. 2. FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a detailed circuit of an overload protection circuit according to an embodiment of the present invention. The overload protection circuit 120 includes a voltage detection circuit 121, a switching element 122, a current limiting element 123, a delay circuit 124, and a switching element 125. The voltage detecting circuit 121 is coupled between the batteryless generator 13 and the ground GND. Switching element 122 The voltage detecting circuit 121, the current limiting element 123, the delay circuit 124, and the ground GND are coupled. The current limiting component 123 is coupled to the voltage regulating circuit 110. The delay circuit 124 is coupled to the switching element 125 and the ground GND. The switching element 125 is coupled between the voltage regulating circuit 110 and the ground GND.

在本實施例中,電壓偵測電路121用以偵測無電瓶發電機13的輸出電壓B,並對應產生電壓偵測信號D。電壓偵測電路121將電壓偵測信號D傳送至開關元件122,以對應控制開關元件122的啟閉。延遲電路124用以通過限流元件123來接收高電壓準位的啟動信號L,並且根據高電壓準位的啟動信號L產生過載保護信號LP。延遲電路124將過載保護信號LP傳送至開關元件125,以控制開關元件125呈現導通狀態。 In this embodiment, the voltage detecting circuit 121 is configured to detect the output voltage B of the batteryless generator 13 and correspondingly generate the voltage detecting signal D. The voltage detecting circuit 121 transmits the voltage detecting signal D to the switching element 122 to correspondingly control the opening and closing of the switching element 122. The delay circuit 124 is configured to receive the high voltage level enable signal L through the current limiting element 123, and generate the overload protection signal LP according to the high voltage level enable signal L. The delay circuit 124 transmits the overload protection signal LP to the switching element 125 to control the switching element 125 to assume an on state.

詳細地說,當電壓偵測電路121偵測到無電瓶發電機13的輸出電壓B小於一門檻值時,開關元件122根據電壓偵測信號D被截止。當開關元件122被截止時,高電壓準位的啟動信號L通過限流元件123傳送至延遲電路124。值得注意的是,若電壓偵測電路121持續偵測到輸出電壓B小於所述門檻值,則開關元件122將持續被截止,並且延遲電路124將依據所接收到的高電壓準位的啟動信號L於一延遲時間後傳送過載保護信號LP至開關元件125,以導通開關元件125。當開關元件125被導通時,電壓調節電路110對應接收到保護信號P,以截斷無電瓶發電機13的激磁電流,而使得無電瓶發電機13停止輸出電能。 In detail, when the voltage detecting circuit 121 detects that the output voltage B of the batteryless generator 13 is less than a threshold value, the switching element 122 is turned off according to the voltage detecting signal D. When the switching element 122 is turned off, the high voltage level enable signal L is transmitted to the delay circuit 124 through the current limiting element 123. It should be noted that if the voltage detecting circuit 121 continuously detects that the output voltage B is less than the threshold, the switching element 122 will continue to be turned off, and the delay circuit 124 will respond to the received high voltage level. L transmits the overload protection signal LP to the switching element 125 after a delay time to turn on the switching element 125. When the switching element 125 is turned on, the voltage regulating circuit 110 correspondingly receives the protection signal P to cut off the exciting current of the batteryless generator 13, so that the batteryless generator 13 stops outputting electric energy.

反之,當電壓偵測電路121偵測到無電瓶發電機13的輸出電壓B大於門檻值時,開關元件122根據電壓偵測信號D被導通。值得注意的是,當開關元件122被導通時,高電壓準位的啟動信號L會通過限流元件123及開關元件125直接被導入接地端GND。因此,於輸出電壓B大於門檻值時,延遲電路124無法通過限流元件123獲得高電壓準位的啟動信號L,故延遲電路124不會產生過載保護信號LP以導通開關元件125。 On the other hand, when the voltage detecting circuit 121 detects that the output voltage B of the batteryless generator 13 is greater than the threshold value, the switching element 122 is turned on according to the voltage detecting signal D. It should be noted that when the switching element 122 is turned on, the high voltage level enable signal L is directly introduced into the ground GND through the current limiting element 123 and the switching element 125. Therefore, when the output voltage B is greater than the threshold value, the delay circuit 124 cannot obtain the high voltage level enable signal L through the current limiting element 123, so the delay circuit 124 does not generate the overload protection signal LP to turn on the switching element 125.

如此,過載保護電路120可於無電瓶發電機13的輸出電壓B過低時(即無電瓶發電機13處於異常狀態時,例如發生過載現象或其他故障問題),對應傳送保護信號P至電壓調節電路110,以讓電壓調節電路110強制使無電瓶發電機13停止運作。 As such, the overload protection circuit 120 can transmit the protection signal P to the voltage regulation when the output voltage B of the batteryless generator 13 is too low (ie, when the battery generator 13 is in an abnormal state, for example, an overload phenomenon or other failure problem occurs).

當無電瓶發電機13的輸出電壓B小於所述門檻值時,由電阻R1及電阻R2所組成的分壓電路從節點N傳送電壓偵測信號D至NMOS電晶體Q1,NMOS電晶體Q1根據所接收的電壓偵測信號D處於截止狀態。當NMOS電晶體Q1處於截止狀態時,過載保護電路120會傳送保護信號P至電壓調節電路110。反之,當無電瓶發電機13的輸出電壓B大於所述門檻值時,所述分壓電路由節點N傳送電壓偵測信號D至NMOS電晶體Q1,NMOS電晶體Q1根據所接收的電壓偵測信號D處於導通狀態。當NMOS電晶體Q1處於導通狀態時,過載保護電路120不會傳送保護信號P至電壓調節電路110,因而電壓調節電路110不會強制使無電瓶發電機13停止運轉。 When the output voltage B of the batteryless generator 13 is less than the threshold value, the voltage dividing circuit composed of the resistor R1 and the resistor R2 transmits the voltage detecting signal D from the node N to the NMOS transistor Q1, and the NMOS transistor Q1 is The received voltage detection signal D is in an off state. When the NMOS transistor Q1 is in the off state, the overload protection circuit 120 transmits the protection signal P to the voltage adjustment circuit 110. On the contrary, when the output voltage B of the batteryless generator 13 is greater than the threshold value, the piezoelectric routing node N transmits the voltage detection signal D to the NMOS transistor Q1, and the NMOS transistor Q1 detects according to the received voltage. Signal D is in an on state. When the NMOS transistor Q1 is in the on state, the overload protection circuit 120 does not transmit the protection signal P to the voltage regulating circuit 110, and thus the voltage regulating circuit 110 does not force the batteryless generator 13 to stop operating.

舉例來說,假設門檻值為20伏特。當稽納二極體ZD1接收到大於20伏特的輸出電壓B(例如22V)時,輸出電壓B大於稽納二極體ZD1之崩潰電壓(例如18V),並且分壓電路於節點N之電壓大於NMOS電晶體Q1的導通電壓,即電壓偵測信號D之電壓大於NMOS電晶體Q1的導通電壓。因此,NMOS電晶體Q1會被導通。反之,當稽納二極體ZD1接收到小於20伏特的輸出電壓B(例如16V)時,輸出電壓B小於稽納二極體ZD1之崩潰電壓(例如18V),故所述分壓電路之節點N的電壓為0V小於NMOS電晶體Q1的導通電壓,即電壓偵測信號D之電壓小於NMOS電晶體Q1的導通電壓。因此,NMOS電晶體Q1不會被導通。 For example, assume a threshold of 20 volts. When the Zener diode ZD1 receives an output voltage B (eg, 22V) greater than 20 volts, the output voltage B is greater than the breakdown voltage of the Zener diode ZD1 (eg, 18V), and the voltage of the voltage divider circuit at node N The voltage greater than the turn-on voltage of the NMOS transistor Q1, that is, the voltage of the voltage detecting signal D is greater than the turn-on voltage of the NMOS transistor Q1. Therefore, the NMOS transistor Q1 is turned on. Conversely, when the output diode B of the Zener diode ZD1 receives less than 20 volts (for example, 16V), the output voltage B is smaller than the breakdown voltage of the Zener diode ZD1 (for example, 18V), so the voltage dividing circuit The voltage of the node N is 0 V smaller than the turn-on voltage of the NMOS transistor Q1, that is, the voltage of the voltage detecting signal D is smaller than the turn-on voltage of the NMOS transistor Q1. Therefore, the NMOS transistor Q1 is not turned on.

更進一步地說,當NMOS電晶體Q1被導通時,高電壓準位的啟動信號L會通過電阻R3及NMOS電晶體Q1導入接地端GND,因此NMOS電晶體Q2不會通過電阻R3接收到高電壓準位的啟動信號L。 Furthermore, when the NMOS transistor Q1 is turned on, the high voltage level enable signal L is introduced to the ground GND through the resistor R3 and the NMOS transistor Q1, so the NMOS transistor Q2 does not receive the high voltage through the resistor R3. The start signal L of the level.

另一方面,當NMOS電晶體Q1被截止時,高電壓準位的啟 動信號L會通過電阻R3對電容C2進行充電。此時,若電壓偵測電路121持續偵測到輸出電壓B小於門檻值,則高電壓準位的啟動信號L將持續對電容C2進行充電,而當電容C2的一端之電壓大於稽納二極體ZD2之崩潰電壓時,稽納二極體ZD2便會傳送過載保護信號LP至NMOS電晶體Q2,以導通NMOS電晶體Q2。接下來,NMOS電晶體Q2傳送保護信號P至電壓調節電路110。如此,電壓調節電路110便可於無電瓶發電機13發生異常時,根據所接收到的保護信號P自動強制使無電瓶發電機13停止輸出電源。 On the other hand, when the NMOS transistor Q1 is turned off, the high voltage level is turned on. The dynamic signal L charges the capacitor C2 through the resistor R3. At this time, if the voltage detecting circuit 121 continuously detects that the output voltage B is less than the threshold value, the high voltage level starting signal L will continue to charge the capacitor C2, and when the voltage of one end of the capacitor C2 is greater than the magnitude of the second pole When the breakdown voltage of the body ZD2, the Zener diode ZD2 transmits the overload protection signal LP to the NMOS transistor Q2 to turn on the NMOS transistor Q2. Next, the NMOS transistor Q2 transmits the protection signal P to the voltage adjustment circuit 110. In this manner, the voltage adjustment circuit 110 can automatically force the batteryless generator 13 to stop outputting power based on the received protection signal P when an abnormality occurs in the batteryless generator 13.

值得注意的是,藉由延遲電路124之電容C2的充電時間及稽納二極體ZD2的崩潰電壓之準位,可使得NMOS電晶體Q2被延後導通,亦即NMOS電晶體Q2係被延後一延遲時間才被導通,其中所述延遲時間即為,高電壓準位的啟動信號L持續對電容C2進行充電直至稽納二極體ZD2之陽極的電壓導通NMOS電晶體Q2的所經時間。 It should be noted that the NMOS transistor Q2 can be delayed by the charging time of the capacitor C2 of the delay circuit 124 and the level of the breakdown voltage of the Zener diode ZD2, that is, the NMOS transistor Q2 is extended. The latter delay time is turned on, wherein the delay time is that the high voltage level enable signal L continues to charge the capacitor C2 until the voltage of the anode of the diode ZD2 turns on the NMOS transistor Q2. .

簡單地說,當電壓偵測電路121偵測到無電瓶發電機13的輸出電壓B小於門檻值時,若於延遲時間內,電壓偵測電路121偵測到無電瓶發電機13的輸出電壓B已大於門檻值,則延遲電路124不會產生過載保護信號LP,此時無電瓶發電機13仍然正常輸出電能。反之,若電壓偵測電路121持續偵測到輸出電壓B小於門檻值,則延遲電路124將依據所接收到的高電壓準位的啟動信號L於一延遲時間後產生過載保護信號LP,此時無電瓶發電機13將被強制停止輸出電能。因此,本發明所提出之電壓調節器11能避免發生因瞬間雜訊干擾而錯誤使無電瓶發電機13停止輸出電源的現象。 Briefly, when the voltage detecting circuit 121 detects that the output voltage B of the batteryless generator 13 is less than the threshold value, the voltage detecting circuit 121 detects the output voltage B of the batteryless generator 13 during the delay time. If the threshold value is greater than the threshold value, the delay circuit 124 does not generate the overload protection signal LP, and the batteryless generator 13 still outputs power normally. On the other hand, if the voltage detecting circuit 121 continuously detects that the output voltage B is less than the threshold value, the delay circuit 124 generates the overload protection signal LP after a delay time according to the received high voltage level activation signal L. The batteryless generator 13 will be forced to stop outputting electrical energy. Therefore, the voltage regulator 11 proposed by the present invention can avoid the occurrence of a phenomenon in which the battery-free generator 13 is stopped from outputting power due to instantaneous noise interference.

在本實施例中,上述延遲時間係介於2.5秒至4秒間,但本發明實施例並不限制延遲時間的時間長度,本技術領域具有通常知識者可視其實際需求,以更換電容C2、稽納二極體ZD2及電阻 R1的規格及種類。 In this embodiment, the delay time is between 2.5 seconds and 4 seconds, but the embodiment of the present invention does not limit the length of the delay time. The person skilled in the art can change the capacitor C2 and the capacitor according to actual needs. Nanodiode ZD2 and resistor R1 specifications and types.

於上述實施例中,過載保護電路120係使用稽納二極體ZD1、ZD2作為一電壓比較元件,然本領域技術人士得以其他具電壓比較功能的元件加以替換,例如一電壓比較器或多個串聯的順向二極體。 In the above embodiment, the overload protection circuit 120 uses the sense diodes ZD1 and ZD2 as a voltage comparison component, but those skilled in the art can replace other components with voltage comparison functions, such as a voltage comparator or multiple. A series of forward diodes.

此外,需一提的是,電壓調節電路110內包括一開關元件(未繪示),所述開關元件耦接無電瓶發電機13的激磁線圈(未繪示)及NMOS電晶體Q2的汲極,其中開關元件可為NMOS電晶體。當電壓調節電路110接收到保護信號P時,電壓調節電路110依據保護信號P使所述開關元件呈現截止狀態,藉此截斷無電瓶發電機13的激磁電流,進而使得無電瓶發電機13無法輸出電量。 In addition, it should be noted that the voltage regulating circuit 110 includes a switching component (not shown) coupled to the excitation coil of the batteryless generator 13 (not shown) and the drain of the NMOS transistor Q2. Wherein the switching element can be an NMOS transistor. When the voltage adjustment circuit 110 receives the protection signal P, the voltage adjustment circuit 110 causes the switching element to assume an off state according to the protection signal P, thereby cutting off the excitation current of the batteryless generator 13, so that the batteryless generator 13 cannot output. Electricity.

尚需一提的是,於無電瓶發電機13發電前,電壓調節電路110產生的是低電壓準位的啟動信號L,此時低電壓準位的啟動信號L無法對延遲電路124的電容C2進行充電,故可確保在無電瓶發電機13產生輸出電壓B前所述延遲電路124的NMOS電晶體Q2不會被導通,從而電壓調節電路110內的開關元件不會被截止,而可避免發生錯誤截斷無電瓶發電機13的激磁電流之現象,即避免發生於無電瓶發電機13發電前無電瓶發電機13就被電壓調節電路110強制停止輸出電能之現象。 It should be noted that before the battery-free generator 13 generates power, the voltage regulating circuit 110 generates a low-voltage level start signal L. At this time, the low-voltage level enable signal L cannot be used for the capacitor C2 of the delay circuit 124. Charging is performed, so that the NMOS transistor Q2 of the delay circuit 124 is not turned on before the battery generator 13 generates the output voltage B, so that the switching elements in the voltage regulating circuit 110 are not turned off, and can be avoided. The phenomenon of the excitation current of the batteryless generator 13 is erroneously cut off, that is, the phenomenon that the battery generator 13 is forcibly stopped by the voltage regulating circuit 110 before the power generation of the batteryless generator 13 is prevented.

值得注意的是,電壓調節電路110除了依據外部電源IG產生高電壓準位的啟動信號L外,亦可依據無電瓶發電機內部的一相位訊號產生啟動信號L,本實施例並不限制電壓調節電路110產生啟動信號L的可能態樣。 It should be noted that, in addition to the start signal L of the high voltage level generated by the external power source IG, the voltage regulating circuit 110 can also generate the start signal L according to a phase signal inside the batteryless generator. This embodiment does not limit the voltage adjustment. Circuit 110 produces a possible aspect of the enable signal L.

綜上所述,本發明實施例所提出之電壓調節器及其過載保護電路,於無電瓶發電機的輸出電壓小於門檻值時,可經由延遲電路於一延遲時間後才產生過載保護信號,並對應強制截斷無電瓶發電機的激磁電流,故能達到確認無電瓶發電機之異常現象的成 立後,才對應強制無電瓶發電機停止輸出電能之目的。亦即,通過本發明實施例之過載保護電路,加入適當的延遲時間作緩衝,而可避免於錯誤的時間點(例如加負載時所引起的瞬間過載現象或瞬間雜訊干擾)使無電瓶發電機停止輸出電能,從而避免過載保護電路可能的誤動作。因此,本發明實施例所提出之電壓調節器及其過載保護電路,除了能於無電瓶發電機發生異常時,強制停止無電瓶發電機輸出電能外,還能避免誤動作的發生。 In summary, the voltage regulator and the overload protection circuit thereof according to the embodiments of the present invention can generate an overload protection signal after a delay time after the output voltage of the batteryless generator is less than the threshold value, and Corresponding to the forced interruption of the excitation current of the batteryless generator, it is possible to confirm the abnormal phenomenon of the batteryless generator. After the establishment, it is only for the purpose of forcing the battery-free generator to stop outputting electric energy. That is, the overload protection circuit of the embodiment of the present invention adds an appropriate delay time for buffering, thereby avoiding the occurrence of an error at a wrong time point (for example, an instantaneous overload phenomenon caused by a load or an instantaneous noise interference). The motor stops outputting power to avoid possible malfunction of the overload protection circuit. Therefore, the voltage regulator and the overload protection circuit thereof according to the embodiments of the present invention can prevent the occurrence of malfunctions by forcibly stopping the output of the batteryless generator when an abnormality occurs in the batteryless generator.
