[0013] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present invention are: By highly integrating multiple functional modules such as power management, communication, core control, and high-voltage drive into a single circuit, this invention eliminates the need for separate and complex high-voltage power supplies and control systems found in traditional solutions. This not only significantly reduces the physical size of the circuit board and lowers material costs, but also simplifies the power supply and control links of the entire MEMS switch array, facilitating the miniaturization and modular deployment of the system.

[0014] Employing the industry-standard RS485 communication protocol, this invention boasts excellent common-mode interference immunity and long-distance transmission capabilities (up to kilometer or more). Combined with the intelligent processing capabilities of a microcontroller, it enables the stable reception and execution of complex instructions from a host computer, making it ideal for the centralized control and remote management of large, distributed MEMS switch arrays (such as terahertz metasurfaces). This solves the problems of complex control interfaces, short transmission distances, and weak anti-interference capabilities found in traditional solutions.

[0015] The high-voltage drive unit employs a dedicated high-voltage drive chip (HV9308PJ-G) and is cascaded via a simple "data output to data input" method. This unique serial cascading architecture allows the microcontroller to control dozens or even hundreds of high-voltage drive channels by sending a long string of shifted data, requiring only one set of SPI interface resources. This design significantly saves microcontroller I / O pins, enabling low-cost and high-efficiency expansion of the number of drive channels, perfectly meeting the needs of large-scale MEMS switch arrays.

[0016] The power input terminal is equipped with a reverse connection protection and buffer circuit including TVS diodes and ferrite beads, which can effectively suppress surge voltages, instantaneous high voltages, and electromagnetic interference in the power grid, preventing damage to downstream precision chips (such as MCUs and driver chips) due to power fluctuations or misoperation. Simultaneously, the communication interface is also adequately protected. This multi-layered protection mechanism significantly improves the operational stability and lifespan of the entire control circuit in complex electromagnetic environments.

[0017] Powered by a high-performance microcontroller (STM32), it generates precise and stable SPI communication timing and control signals. Through independent control of the output enable signal and latch enable signal, it enables synchronous refreshing or sequential switching of the states of all MEMS switching channels, avoiding the risk of signal crosstalk or momentary short circuits caused by asynchronous switching actions. This meets the stringent requirements for switching timing in high-end applications.

[0018] This invention provides a complete solution from power input to high-voltage output. Application manufacturers no longer need to design complex high-voltage generation circuits, level conversion circuits, and communication isolation circuits separately; they can directly use this circuit as a standard functional module, significantly shortening product development cycles and lowering the application threshold for MEMS switching technology.

[0041] The first serial communication transmit pin (PA9 / USART1_TX) and the first serial communication receive pin (PA10 / USART1_RX) of the microcontroller U6 are connected to the RS485 transceiver chip U13 of the communication unit.

[0042] The general-purpose input / output pins of the microcontroller U6 are configured as Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) control signals, specifically including: Master Output Slave Input pin (PA7 / SPI_MOSI), connected to the data input pin of the first-level high-voltage driver chip; Serial Clock pin (PA5 / SPI1_SCK), connected to the clock pin of all high-voltage driver chips; Output Enable pin (PA3), connected to the output enable pin of all high-voltage driver chips; and Latch Enable pin (PA4), connected to the latch enable pin of all high-voltage driver chips.

[0043] Reference Figure 3 The high-voltage drive unit generates and expands the high-voltage drive signal. The high-voltage drive unit includes at least one high-voltage drive chip (such as the first-stage high-voltage drive chip U14 and the last-stage high-voltage drive chip U15 provided in this embodiment, model HV9308PJ-G).

[0044] Each high-voltage driver chip's logic power supply pin VDD is connected to a 3.3V logic voltage. Each high-voltage driver chip's high-voltage power supply pin VPP is connected to an externally input second voltage VCC2 (e.g., 50V). High-voltage filter capacitors (e.g., C29 and C30 on the first-stage high-voltage driver chip U14 side; C28 and C31 on the second-stage high-voltage driver chip U15 side) are connected in parallel between each high-voltage driver chip's high-voltage power supply pin VPP and ground. Each high-voltage driver chip's ground pin GND is grounded.

[0045] The clock pin CLK of all high-voltage driver chips is connected to the serial clock pin PA5 of microcontroller U6.

The data output pin DataOut of the first-stage high-voltage driver chip U14 is connected to the data input pin DataIn of the next-stage high-voltage driver chip U15, thereby realizing serial cascading of data and expanding the drive channels.

[0047] Each high-voltage driver chip has multiple high-voltage output pins (HVOUT1 to HVOUT32) connected to the corresponding pins of the MEMS switch interface unit.

[0048] Reference Figure 4 The MEMS switch interface unit provides a physical output interface for high-voltage signals.

[0049] The MEMS switch interface unit consists of a high-density connector P1 (model 9001-32641C00A). Multiple pins of the high-density connector P1 (such as A1 to A32) are connected one-to-one with the high-voltage output pins (HVOUT1 to HVOUT32) of the first-stage high-voltage driver chip U14, and multiple other pins of the high-density connector P1 (such as B1 to B32) are connected one-to-one with the high-voltage output pins (HVOUT1 to HVOUT32) of the final-stage high-voltage driver chip U15, thereby outputting multiple high-voltage drive signals (VPP 1 to VPP 64) to the external MEMS switch array.

[0050] Working principle

[0051] After the system powers on, each module initializes. The host computer sends the target switch status command via the RS485 bus. The RS485 transceiver chip U13 of the communication unit receives the command and transmits it to the microcontroller U6. The microcontroller U6 parses the command and generates the corresponding serial data frame. Subsequently, the microcontroller U6, through its SPI interface and synchronized with the serial clock signal, serially shifts the data frame out through the master device output / slave device input pin PB0. The data is first shifted into the first-stage high-voltage driver chip U14, filling its internal shift register, and then shifted into the next-stage high-voltage driver chip U15 through its data output pin. After all data shifting is complete, the microcontroller U6 generates a latch enable signal, latching the data in the shift register in parallel to the output latches of each high-voltage driver chip. Finally, the microcontroller U6 enables the output enable signal, and each high-voltage driver chip, based on the data in the latch, controls its high-voltage output pin to output the corresponding high-voltage signal (VCC2 or 0V), thereby driving the corresponding switch in the MEMS switch array to close or open, completing the control operation.
