[0051] The first resistor R3 and the second resistor R2 use different working circuits to adjust the output charging or discharging current limit, which is described in detail below through two embodiments. The circuits of the two embodiments are basically the same, and the difference between the two embodiments is the specific circuits of the first reference module S1 and the second reference module S2.

[0052] Embodiment 1

[0053] Please refer to Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment 1 provides a charge and discharge current limit adjustment circuit 200.

[0054] The charge and discharge current limit adjustment circuit 200 includes a first reference module 2S1 and a second reference module 2S2. The first reference module 2S1 and the second reference module 2S2 are both used to generate a reference voltage. The first reference module 2S1 includes the first resistor R3. The second reference module 2S2 includes the second resistor R2.

[0055] Specifically, the first reference module 2S1 further includes a first current source IREF1. An input terminal of the first current source IREF1 is connected to a power supply voltage VDD.

[0056] The circuit connection relationship of the first reference module 2S1 is as follows: the output end of the first current source IREF1 is connected to the first end of the first resistor R3 and serves as the output end DSG of the first reference module 2S1. The second end of the first resistor R3 is connected to the ground GND.

[0057] The circuit composed of the first current source IREF1 and the first resistor R3 is used to generate a discharge current limit reference voltage VDSG. The discharge current limit reference voltage VDSG is the voltage of the output terminal DSG of the first reference module 2S1, and is used to set the discharge current limit.

[0058] The second reference module 2S2 further includes a second current source IREF2.

[0059] The circuit connection relationship of the second reference module 2S2 is as follows: the input end of the second current source IREF2 is connected to the power supply voltage VDD. The output end of the second current source IREF2 is connected to the first end of the second resistor R2 and serves as the output end CHG of the second reference module 2S2. The second end of the second resistor R2 is connected to the ground GND.

[0060] The circuit composed of the second current source IREF2 and the second resistor R2 is used for charging current limit reference voltage VCHG. The charging current limit reference voltage VCHG is the voltage of the output terminal CHG of the second reference module S2. The charging current limit reference voltage VCHG is used to set the charging current limit.

[0061] The first comparator COMP1 is a comparator for the discharge current limit adjustment function. The first comparator COMP1 is used to compare the discharge current limit reference with the charge and discharge current sampling signal ICS. The output signal of the first comparator COMP1 is an ODSG signal. When the ODSG signal is at a high level, it means that the discharge current of the charge and discharge interface terminal VM connected to the first transistor M1 is greater than the set discharge current limit.

[0062] Similarly, the second comparator COMP2 is a comparator for the charging current limit adjustment function. The second comparator COMP2 is used to set the charging current limit. The output signal of the second comparator COMP2 is an OCHG signal. When the ODSG signal is at a high level, it indicates that the charging current of the charging and discharging interface terminal VM connected to the first transistor M1 is greater than the set charging current limit.

[0063] The logic control module LOG is a digital circuit, and of course, the logic control module LOG can also be a digital-analog hybrid circuit. The logic control module LOG is used to control the on and off of the first transistor M1.

[0064] The first transistor M1 is a power switch and is used to implement charge and discharge control in battery applications.

[0065] The switch driving circuit module DVR is a gate driving circuit of the first transistor M1.

[0066] The first amplifier AMP1 samples and amplifies the current of the first transistor M1 , and the first transistor M1 outputs a charge-discharge current sampling signal ICS and sends it to the first comparator COMP1 and the second comparator COMP2 .

[0067] The following is the circuit working principle of the charge and discharge current limit adjustment circuit 200:

[0068] When the reference current IREF1 of the first current source IREF1 and the reference current IREF2 of the second current source IREF2 flow through the first resistor R3 and the second resistor R2 respectively, the discharge current limit reference voltage signals VDSG and VCHG are generated (where V DSG =I REF1 R3, V CHG =IREF2 When the first transistor M1 is turned on, the first amplifier AMP1 samples the current when the first transistor M1 is turned on, and outputs a VICS signal, where V ICS =I M1 ·K, K is the amplification factor of the first amplifier AMP1. In the battery application circuit, when the battery is in a discharge state, the VICS signal is input to the first comparator COMP1 and compared with the VDSG signal. When VICS>VDSG, the first comparator COMP1 outputs the signal ODSG as a high level, and the first transistor M1 is controlled to be turned off through the logic control module LOG and the switch drive circuit module DVR, disconnecting the conduction current between the charge and discharge interface terminal VM-ground GND, and realizing battery discharge current protection. At this time, the power switch discharge protection current is determined to be:

[0069] According to this formula, the battery discharge current limit can be adjusted by the first resistor R3 of the charge and discharge current limit adjustment circuit 200.

[0070] Similarly, when the battery is in the charging working mode, the VICS signal is input to the second comparator COMP2 and compared with the VCHG signal. When VICS>VCHG, the second comparator COMP2 outputs a signal OCHG of a high level, and the logic control module LOG and the switch drive circuit module DVR control the first transistor M1 to be turned off, disconnecting the conduction current between the charge and discharge interface terminal VM and the ground GND, thereby realizing the battery charging current protection. At this time, the charging protection current of the charge and discharge interface terminal VM is determined to be: Therefore, the battery charging current limit can be adjusted by the second resistor R2 of the charging and discharging current limit adjustment circuit 200 .

[0071] Embodiment 2

[0072] Please refer to Figure 6 As shown, this second embodiment provides a charge and discharge current limit adjustment circuit 300.

[0073] The charge and discharge current limit adjustment circuit 300 includes a first reference module 3S1 and a second reference module 2S2. The first reference module 3S1 and the second reference module 3S2 are both used to generate a reference current. The first reference module 3S1 includes the first resistor R3, and the second reference module 3S2 includes the second resistor R2. The reference current can be directly generated by the first resistor R3 and the second resistor R2.

[0074] The specific circuit structures of the first reference module 3S1 and the second reference module 3S2 are as follows:

[0075] The first reference module 3S1 further includes a first current mirror circuit unit CM1, a second transistor M2 and a second amplifier AMP2.

[0076] The first reference module 3S1 is used to generate a discharge current limit reference current IDSG. The discharge current limit reference current IDSG is the current of the output terminal DSG of the first reference module S1.

[0077] The circuit connection relationship of the first reference module 3S1 is as follows: the first output end of the first current mirror circuit unit CM1 is connected to the drain of the second transistor M2. The second output end of the first current mirror circuit unit CM1 serves as the output end DSG of the first reference module 3S1. The source of the second transistor M2 is respectively connected to the positive input end of the second amplifier AMP2 and the first end of the first resistor R3. The gate of the second transistor M2 is connected to the output end of the second amplifier AMP2. The second end of the first resistor R3 is connected to the ground GND. The negative input end of the second amplifier AMP2 serves as the first reference voltage input end VREF1.

[0078] The second reference module 3S2 further includes a second current mirror circuit unit CM2, a third transistor M3 and a third amplifier AMP3.

[0079] The second reference module 3S2 is used to generate a charging current limit reference current ICHG. The charging current limit reference current ICHG is the current at the output terminal CHG of the second reference module 3S2.

[0080] The circuit connection relationship of the second reference module 3S2 is as follows: the first output terminal of the second current mirror circuit unit CM2 is connected to the drain of the third transistor M3. The second output terminal of the second current mirror circuit unit CM2 serves as the output terminal CHG of the second reference module 3S2. The source of the third transistor M3 is respectively connected to the positive input terminal of the third amplifier AMP3 and the first terminal of the second resistor R2. The gate of the third transistor M3 is connected to the output terminal of the third amplifier AMP3. The second terminal of the second resistor R2 is connected to the ground GND. The negative input terminal of the third amplifier AMP3 serves as the second reference voltage input terminal VREF2.

[0081] The first comparator COMP1 is a comparator for the discharge current limit adjustment function. The first comparator COMP1 is used to compare the discharge current limit reference with the charge and discharge current sampling signal ICS. The output signal of the first comparator COMP1 is an ODSG signal. When the ODSG signal is at a high level, it means that the discharge current of the charge and discharge interface terminal VM connected to the first transistor M1 is greater than the set discharge current limit.

[0082] Similarly, the second comparator COMP2 is a comparator for the charging current limit adjustment function. The second comparator COMP2 is used to set the charging current limit. The output signal of the second comparator COMP2 is an OCHG signal. When the ODSG signal is at a high level, it indicates that the charging current of the charging and discharging interface terminal VM connected to the first transistor M1 is greater than the set charging current limit.

[0083] The logic control module LOG is a digital circuit, and of course, the logic control module LOG can also be a digital-analog hybrid circuit. The logic control module LOG is used to control the on and off of the first transistor M1.

[0084] The first transistor M1 is a power switch and is used to implement charge and discharge control in battery applications.

[0085] The switch driving circuit module DVR is a gate driving circuit of the first transistor M1.

[0086] The first amplifier AMP1 samples and amplifies the current of the first transistor M1 , and the first transistor M1 outputs a charge-discharge current sampling signal ICS and sends it to the first comparator COMP1 and the second comparator COMP2 .

[0087] The following is the circuit working principle of the charge and discharge current limit adjustment circuit 300:

[0088] When the reference voltage of the first reference voltage input terminal VREF1 and the reference voltage of the second reference voltage input terminal VREF2 flow through the first resistor R3 and the second resistor R2 respectively, the discharge current limit reference current signals IDSG and ICHG are generated. When the first transistor M1 is turned on, the first amplifier AMP1 samples the current when the first transistor M1 is turned on, and outputs IICS, where I ICS =I M1·K, K is the gain of the first amplifier AMP1. In the battery application circuit, when the battery is in a discharge state, IICS is input to COMP1 and compared with IDSG. When IICS>IDSG, the first comparator COMP1 outputs a signal ODSG at a high level, and the first transistor M1 is controlled to be turned off through the logic control module LOG and the switch drive circuit module DVR, disconnecting the conduction current between the charge and discharge interface terminal VM-ground GND, thereby realizing battery discharge current protection. At this time, the power switch discharge protection current is determined to be: According to this formula, the battery discharge current limit can be adjusted by the first resistor R3 in the charge and discharge current limit adjustment circuit 300.

[0089] Similarly, when the battery is in the charging working mode, IICS is input to the second comparator COMP2 and compared with ICHG. When IICS>ICHG, the second comparator COMP2 outputs a signal OCHG of a high level, and the logic control module LOG and the switch drive circuit module DVR control the first transistor M1 to be turned off, disconnecting the conduction current between the charge and discharge interface terminal VM and the ground GND, thereby realizing the battery charging current protection. At this time, the charging protection current of disconnecting the charge and discharge interface terminal VM is determined to be: Therefore, the battery charging current limit can be adjusted by the second resistor R2 in the charging and discharging current limit adjustment circuit 300 .

[0090] As can be seen from the above-mentioned Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2, the charge and discharge current limit adjustment circuit 100 is configured by providing the first resistor R3 for adjusting the output current or voltage in the first reference module S1, and simultaneously providing the second resistor R2 for adjusting the output current or voltage in the second reference module S2. Thus, the circuit can independently control the charge and / or discharge current limit adjustment, thereby meeting the application requirements of different types of batteries and different systems, and thus making the charge and discharge current limit adjustment circuit have a wide range of applications.

[0091] In order to make the charge and discharge current limit adjustment circuit 100 more convenient to use and easier to adjust the charge and discharge current limit, the first resistor R3 and the second resistor R2 can be set in the application circuit, and the circuit modules and components of the charge and discharge current limit adjustment circuit 100 except the first resistor R3 and the second resistor R2 can be integrated and packaged into one, for example, a separate chip U4 can be manufactured. Figure 7 As shown, Figure 71 is an application circuit diagram of the charge and discharge current limit regulating circuit of the present invention. In the application circuit diagram, the chip U4, the first resistor R3 and the second resistor R2 together constitute the charge and discharge current limit regulating circuit 100. This configuration is conducive to adjusting the charge and discharge current limit through the first resistor R3 and the second resistor R2, so that the application scheme of the charge and discharge current limit regulating circuit 100 of the present invention is simple and has a wide range of applications.

The charge and discharge current limit regulation circuit is configured by setting the first resistor for adjusting the output current or voltage in the first reference module, and at the same time, setting the second resistor for adjusting the output current or voltage in the second reference module. Thus, the circuit can realize independent control of the charge and / or discharge current limit regulation, thereby meeting the application requirements of different types of batteries and different systems, so that the charge and discharge current limit regulation circuit has a wide range of applications. At the same time, when conducting IEC62368 certification, the charge and discharge current limit regulation circuit in the present invention can replace the overvoltage / overcurrent protection circuit, thereby simplifying the battery application scheme, so that the application scheme of the charge and discharge current limit regulation circuit is simple and has a wide range of applications.
