Problems solved by technology

[0006] The MICs produced by different manufacturers are different. For example, for capacitive MICs, various parameters such as the type of metal sheet, the area of ​​​​the metal sheet and its distance may be different, which leads to great differences in the electrical signals output by various MICs.
[0007] The parameters of each component of the hardware logic circuit in the MIC circuit of the electronic cigarette ignition controller need to work in harmony with the electrical signal output by the MIC. In order to be able to coordinate with the parameters of each component of the hardware logic circuit, in the prior art, Can only use a certain kind of MIC, even need to customize MIC
[0008] In addition, in the prior art, once the ignition threshold in the controller is set, it cannot be changed, and it cannot be flexibly set according to the user's environment.

Embodiment 1

[0101] Such as Figure 7 Shown is a schematic diagram of the signal processing circuit in this embodiment. The signal processing circuit includes a signal adjustment unit 2 , a data acquisition unit 3 , a filtering unit 5 and a buffer 6 . Wherein, the signal adjustment unit 2 includes a programmable gain amplifier PGA and an amplifier BOOST. The differential input terminals of the programmable gain amplifier PAG are respectively connected with the two output terminals of the MIC. The gain adjustment terminal of the programmable gain amplifier PGA is connected to the control unit 4, and the control unit 4 can change the amplitude of the airflow sound signal by setting the gain of the programmable gain amplifier. Specifically, the output range of the programmable gain amplifier PGA is -12dB-35dB, and the output range of the amplifier BOOST is 0dB-26dB.

[0102] The data acquisition unit 3 is an analog-to-digital converter SDADC, which samples the adjusted analog airflow sound...

Embodiment 2

[0110] Such as Figure 10 As shown, it is a schematic block diagram of the overall circuit of the electronic cigarette in the second embodiment. In this embodiment, its circuit composition is similar to that of Embodiment 1, except that the MIC is connected to the system power supply circuit through a touch switch. When the user smokes, the lips touch the touch switch, the touch switch connects the MIC and the system power supply circuit, and the MIC starts to work to detect the user's airflow sound signal. When the user does not smoke, the touch switch is turned off, the power supply circuit of the MIC is turned off, and the MIC does not perform detection. Therefore, the safety and reliability of the electronic cigarette ignition device are further improved.

Embodiment 3

[0112] Such as Figure 11 Shown is the power supply circuit in this embodiment, including a USB charging interface, a rechargeable battery and a power management chip ME4050. The power management chip ME4050 supplies power to the main circuit, and its power supply terminal is VDD_MCU.

[0113] Such as Figure 12 Shown is the schematic diagram of the main circuit in this embodiment, mainly including microcontroller MCU (ISD9160_QFN33 or ISD91230_LQFP48 or N570_LQFP48), MIC, threshold adjustment button S1 and their respective peripheral circuits. The output of the MIC is connected to the differential input of the microcontroller MCU. The microcontroller MUC integrates a programmable gain amplifier PGA, an amplifier BOOST, an analog-to-digital converter SDADC, a filter SINC Filter and a buffer FIFO. The airflow sound signal detected by the MIC is adjusted through internal programming. In order to make the signal detected by the MIC suitable for signal processing. Therefore, t...
