Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of Ethernet power supply, and in particular, relates to an interface adaptive power supply circuit, device and PD equipment. Background Art

[0002] PoE (Power Over Ethernet) refers to a technology that can provide DC power to some IP-based terminals (such as IP phones, wireless LAN access points AP, network cameras, etc.) while transmitting data signals without any changes to the existing Ethernet cabling infrastructure. Currently used PoE devices can be simply divided into two categories: PSE (power-sourcing equipment) and PD (Powered Device), where PSE is the power supply equipment in PoE power supply, and PD is the powered device in PoE power supply.

[0003] At present, all the devices on the market are single PSE and PD devices. In this case, multiple power supply methods are required for some devices that need to be used together, such as CPE+IPC (customer front-end equipment + inter-process communication equipment, and IPC in the monitoring system refers to the network camera, that is, the front-end monitoring equipment). This combination requires two power supply links to power the CPE and IPC respectively. Traditional devices have both the function of receiving power from external PSE devices as PD devices and the function of supplying power to external PD devices as PSE devices. They are connected to the PSE power supply device through the first Ethernet port to obtain power, and connected to other PD powered devices through the second Ethernet port. After the internal switch control module is turned on, the external PD powered device can be powered through Ethernet port 2. However, the above technical solution has two limitations. First, the functions of the PoE power supply end network port and the power receiving end network port are fixed and cannot be adaptive, which causes inconvenience to users and may cause system damage due to misoperation. Second, the switch control depends on the data processing system, that is, the switch that controls the PSE to supply power to the external PD device requires a data processing module or a minimum CPU (Central Processing Unit) system to control it. The system and circuit are relatively complex, and when turning the machine on and off, the signal of the software-controlled switch is prone to abnormality, resulting in uncontrollable switch and system failure to work properly.

[0004] Therefore, the traditional technical solutions have the problem that the functions of the PoE power supply end network port and the power receiving end network port are fixedly designed and cannot be adapted and adjusted, and the port power supply and power receiving control system has a complex structure and poor control stability and reliability.

[0042] See also Figure 1 , an interface adaptive power supply circuit is connected to a first network interface 01 and a second network interface 02, and the interface adaptive power supply circuit includes: a first switching switch circuit 11, a second switching switch circuit 21, a first detection circuit 12, a second detection circuit 22, a logic processing circuit 30, a voltage conversion circuit 40 and a power supply management circuit 50.

[0043] A first switching switch circuit 11, wherein the common end of the first switching switch circuit 11 is connected to the first network interface 01; a second switching switch circuit 21, wherein the common end of the second switching switch circuit 21 is connected to the second network interface 02; a first detection circuit 12, connected to the first switch end of the first switching switch circuit 11, configured to detect the state of the first network interface 01 and the type of the first external device connected to the first network interface 01, so as to generate a first enable signal and a third enable signal, and generate a first rectified voltage according to the power supply voltage provided by the first external device; a second detection circuit 22, connected to the first switch end of the second switching switch circuit 21, configured to detect the state of the second network interface 02 and the type of the second external device connected to the second network interface 02, so as to generate a second enable signal and a fourth enable signal, and generate a second rectified voltage according to the power supply voltage provided by the second external device; a logic processing circuit 30, connected to the first detection circuit 12 and the second detection circuit 22, configured to generate a voltage transformation enable signal according to the first enable signal and the second enable signal; a voltage conversion circuit 40 , connected to the logic processing circuit 30, the first switch end of the first switching switch circuit 11 and the first switch end of the second switching switch circuit 21, and configured to perform voltage conversion processing on the power supply voltage provided by the first external device and / or the second external device according to the voltage transformation enable signal to generate a power supply voltage; the power supply management circuit 50, connected to the voltage conversion circuit 40, the second switch end of the first switching switch circuit 11, the second switch end of the second switching switch circuit 21, the first detection circuit 12 and the second detection circuit 22, and configured to control the on-off state of the first rectified voltage and the second rectified voltage according to the type of the first external device, the type of the second external device and the power supply voltage; the first switching switch circuit 11 is configured to switch to the first network interface 01 connected to the first detection circuit 12 or to the first network interface 01 connected to the power supply management circuit 50 according to the fourth enable signal; the second switching switch circuit 21 is configured to switch to the second network interface 02 connected to the second detection circuit 22 or to the second network interface 02 connected to the power supply management circuit 50 according to the third enable signal.

[0044] In the specific implementation, the first network interface 01 and the second network interface 02 are both Ethernet network interfaces, including RJ45 plugs, of which two groups of taps, 1 and 2 taps, 3 and 6 taps, 4 and 5 taps, and 7 and 8 taps, have POE feeding, so there are two feeding modes: 1236 taps and 4578 taps.

[0045] When no external PSE device is connected, that is, both the first network interface 01 and the second network interface 02 are not connected to the PSE device, including the first network interface 01 connected to the first external device but the first external device is not a PSE device and the second network interface 02 connected to the second external device but the second external device is not a PSE device, the first network interface 01 connected to the first external device but the first external device is not a PSE device and the second network interface 02 is vacant (the second external device is not connected), the first network interface 01 is vacant (the first external device is not connected) and the second network interface 02 is connected to the second external device but the second external device is not a PSE device. In this case, the interface adaptive power supply circuit is not connected to the power supply voltage, and the first detection circuit 12 generates the first detection circuit 12 correspondingly. A first enable signal of a first level and a third enable signal of a low level, the second detection circuit 22 generates a second enable signal of a first level and a fourth enable signal of a low level accordingly, the first switching switch circuit 11 switches to the first network interface 01 connected to the first detection circuit 12 according to the fourth enable signal of the first level, the second switching switch circuit 21 switches to the second network interface 02 connected to the second detection circuit 22 according to the third enable signal of the first level, the logic processing circuit 30 generates a first-level voltage transformation enable signal according to the first enable signal of the first level and the second enable signal of the first level, the first-level voltage transformation enable signal does not enable the voltage conversion circuit 40 to work, so the voltage conversion circuit 40 does not generate a power supply voltage and does not supply power to internal and external power loads.

[0046] When the first external device connected to the first network interface 01 is a PSE device, the second network interface 02 is not connected to the second external device or the second external device connected to the second network interface 02 is an external PD device (i.e., an external powered device), the interface adaptive power supply circuit is connected to the power supply voltage, and the power supply voltage is provided by the first external device. The first detection circuit 12 generates a first enable signal of a second level and a third enable signal of a second level, and the second detection circuit 22 generates a second enable signal of a first level and a fourth enable signal of a first level. The first switching switch circuit 11 switches to connect the first network interface 01 to the first detection circuit 12 according to the fourth enable signal of the first level, and the second switching switch circuit 21 switches to connect the second network interface 02 to the power supply management circuit according to the third enable signal of the second level. 50 is connected, the logic processing circuit 30 generates a second-level voltage transformation enable signal according to the first enable signal of the second level and the second enable signal of the first level, the second-level voltage transformation enable signal enables the voltage conversion circuit 40 to perform voltage conversion and other processing on the power supply voltage provided by the first external device connected to the first network interface 01 to generate a power supply voltage, and the power supply management circuit 50 and the internal powered load are powered by the power supply voltage. The power supply management circuit 50 controls the conduction of the first rectified voltage to the second network interface 02 for the external PD device according to the first power supply voltage and the second external device, so as to power the second external device (external PD device) connected to the second network interface 02; wherein the power supply voltage includes the first power supply voltage, and the internal powered load is other powered devices or circuits in the interface adaptive power supply circuit.

[0047] Similarly, when the second external device connected to the second network interface 02 is a PSE device, and the first network interface 01 is not connected to the first external device or the first external device connected is an external PD device (i.e., an external powered device), the interface adaptive power supply circuit is connected to the power supply voltage, and the power supply voltage is provided by the second external device. The first detection circuit 12 generates a first enable signal of a first level and a third enable signal of a first level, and the second detection circuit 22 generates a second enable signal of a second level and a fourth enable signal of a second level. The first switching switch circuit 11 switches to connect the first network interface 01 to the power supply management circuit 50 according to the fourth enable signal of the second level, and the second switching switch circuit 21 switches to connect the first network interface 01 to the power supply management circuit 50 according to the third enable signal of the first level. The signal is switched to connect the second network interface 02 with the second detection circuit 22, and the logic processing circuit 30 generates a second-level voltage transformation enable signal according to the first-level first enable signal and the second-level second enable signal. The second-level voltage transformation enable signal enables the voltage conversion circuit 40 to perform voltage conversion and other processing on the power supply voltage provided by the second external device connected to the second network interface 02 to generate a power supply voltage, and the power supply management circuit 50 and the internal powered load are powered by the power supply voltage, so that the power supply management circuit 50 controls the conduction of the second rectified voltage to the first network interface 01 for the external PD device according to the first supply voltage and the first external device, so as to power the first external device (external PD device) connected to the first network interface 01.

[0048] When the first network interface 01 and the second network interface 02 are both connected to external PSE devices, that is, the first external device connected to the first network interface 01 and the second external device connected to the second network interface 02 are both external PSE devices, at this time, the interface adaptive power supply circuit is connected to the power supply voltage, and the power supply voltage is jointly provided by the first external device and the second external device, the first detection circuit 12 generates a first enable signal of the second level and a third enable signal of the second level, and the second detection circuit 22 generates a second enable signal of the second level and a fourth enable signal of the second level, the first switching switch circuit 11 switches to connect the first network interface 01 to the power supply management circuit 50 according to the fourth enable signal of the second level, and the second switching switch circuit 21 switches to connect the first network interface 01 to the power supply management circuit 50 according to the third enable signal of the second level. The second network interface 02 is switched to be connected to the power supply management circuit 50, and the logic processing circuit 30 generates a second-level voltage transformation enable signal according to the first enable signal of the second level and the second enable signal of the second level. The second-level voltage transformation enable signal enables the voltage conversion circuit 40 to perform voltage conversion and other processing on the power supply voltage connected to the two network interfaces to generate a power supply voltage, and the power supply management circuit 50 and the internal powered load are powered by the power supply voltage. The power supply management circuit 50 controls the disconnection of the first rectified voltage and the second rectified voltage according to the failure to detect that the network interface (i.e., the first network interface 01 and the second network interface 02) is connected to the external PD device, that is, the power supply management circuit 50 controls the disconnection of the first external device and the second external device as PSE devices, thereby disconnecting the power supply to the external device.

[0049] Optionally, the first level is a low level, and the second level is a high level, which is not limited here.

[0050] In the specific implementation, when an external PSE device is connected, the external PSE device will detect the opposite device in the link through at least two low-voltage and current-limiting levels, and analyze and calculate the characteristic impedance of the opposite device through the voltage and current values ​​obtained by the link reply to see if the match meets the requirements of the PoE power supply protocol, thereby determining whether there is a PD device connected to the connected opposite end. After the detection is passed, the external PSE device first outputs a voltage pulse on the data line or the backup line to the PD device at the opposite end. After the PD device at the opposite end obtains the voltage, it responds with a current that can represent its own power level. The external PSE device can determine the power level of the PD device based on this current. During the grading process, the PD device adopts the highest grading, so that sufficient power supply capacity is reserved when powering the external PD device. Among them, the PD device includes the interface adaptive power supply circuit itself.

[0051] The present application can realize the adaptive adjustment of multiple ports (i.e., network interfaces) to powered ports or power supply ports according to the type of port access devices through pure hardware circuits, so as to perform PoE power supply. That is, it can be powered by an external PSE device connected to the network interface as a powered device, and it can also be powered by an external PD device connected to the network interface as a power supply device. No software control is required, the interface function can be switched quickly and adaptively, the circuit structure is simple, the cost is reduced, and the reliability and practicality of the interface adaptive power supply circuit are improved.

[0052] In one embodiment, the logic processing circuit 30 is a logic circuit.

[0053] In one embodiment, the logic circuit is an OR gate circuit. Optionally, the logic circuit can also be a combinational logic circuit or a NOR gate circuit.

[0054] Through the logic circuit, according to the different level states of the first enable signal and the second enable signal, the voltage conversion circuit 40 is enabled to perform voltage conversion processing on the power supply voltage, thereby controlling the power supply to the internal power-receiving load and the power supply management circuit 50. There is no need to rely on complex data processing modules or microcontroller units (MCU) or central processing units (CPU) for software configuration for control.

[0074] In a specific implementation, the first power supply voltage terminal provides a first power supply voltage, and the first power supply voltage is used to power the power supply management chip U3. Optionally, the voltage value of the first power supply voltage is PSE_3V3, which is generated by the voltage conversion circuit 40 performing voltage conversion and voltage stabilization on the power supply voltage. The second power supply voltage and the third power supply voltage for powering the internal power receiving load may be the same as the first power supply voltage, or may be different; the power supply voltage includes the first power supply voltage, the second power supply voltage and the third power supply voltage. The rectifier voltage terminal provides a rectified voltage, such as PWR_53V5; wherein the rectified voltage may be obtained by rectifying the first power supply voltage provided by the first rectifier unit 121 to the first external device, or by rectifying the second power supply voltage provided by the second rectifier circuit 221 to the second external device, or by the first rectifier unit 121 and the second rectifier circuit 221. Provided jointly. When the first external device connected to the first network interface 01 is an external PSE device or the second external device connected to the second network interface 02 is an external PSE device, the first power supply voltage or the second power supply voltage provided by the external PSE device is the power supply voltage; when the first network interface 01 and the second network interface 02 are both connected to external PSE devices, the power supply voltage is provided by two external PSE devices, and the corresponding total power supply voltage is within the operating voltage range of the voltage conversion circuit 40 and the power supply management chip U3, and will not cause overvoltage damage to the voltage conversion circuit 40 and the power supply management chip U3.

[0075] The power management chip U3 can send test current and voltage pulses through a group of current detection input terminals, detection connection terminals, output voltage monitoring terminals and gate drive output terminals corresponding to the network interface (for example, the first current detection input terminal SEN1 of the power management chip U3, the first detection connection terminal KSENEA of the power management chip U3, the first output voltage monitoring terminal DRAIN1 of the power management chip U3 and the first gate drive output terminal GATE1 of the power management chip U3) to test and obtain the state of the corresponding network interface and the type of external device connected to the network interface, including whether the external device is a powered device, and which power supply protocol type and power level of the powered device it is, so as to control the field effect transistor (for example, the first field effect transistor Q01 and the second field effect transistor Q02) corresponding to the network interface to be turned on or off, and then control the corresponding network interface to be a power supply interface, so as to realize power supply to the external PD device connected to the network interface, for example, when the second external device connected to the second network interface 02 is a PSE device, and the power management chip U3 detects after testing that the first network interface is powered. When the PoE power supply protocol connected to port 01 is a PD device with a PoE power supply protocol of 802.3at protocol standard and a power supply power of 15.4W, a high-level control signal from the first gate drive output terminal GATE1 of the power supply management chip U3 controls the first field effect transistor Q01 to be turned on, and the power supply voltage (VDD_53V5) provided by the external PSE device connected to the second network interface 02 is rectified through the first network interface 01 to generate a rectified voltage (for example, PWR_53V5) and output to the PD device to power the connected external PD device; similarly, when the first external device connected to the first network interface 01 is a PSE device, and the power supply management chip U3 detects and recognizes that the second network interface 02 is connected to an external PD device, the second field effect transistor Q02 is controlled to be turned on, and the connected external PD device is powered through the second network interface 02; in the above two cases, the interface adaptive power supply circuit can adaptively adjust the network interface to a power supply port (to supply power to the outside) and a power receiving port (to receive external power) according to the network interface status and the type of external device connected to the network interface. When it is identified that both the first network interface 01 and the second network interface 02 are connected to an external PSE device, the first field effect transistor Q01 and the second field effect transistor Q02 are controlled to be cut off, the rectifier voltage is disconnected, and no external power is supplied. At this time, the interface adaptive power supply circuit as a whole only serves as a powered device and receives power from an external PSE device; when it is identified that both the first network interface 01 and the second network interface 02 are connected to an external PD device, the voltage conversion circuit 40 is not enabled to work because the power supply voltage is not connected, so that the power supply management chip U3 does not work and no external power is supplied. Optionally, when both the first network interface 01 and the second network interface 02 are not connected to an external PSE device, the voltage conversion circuit 40 can generate a power supply voltage based on the voltage provided by other power sources (such as a power adapter) to power the internal powered load.

One network interface corresponds to one switching circuit and one detection circuit, and the detection circuit detects whether the corresponding network interface is connected to an external device and the type of the connected external device, thereby generating a corresponding enable signal; the enable signal is transmitted to the logic processing circuit 30, and the logic processing circuit 30 generates a voltage conversion enable signal and a switching enable signal according to the four enable signals generated by the four detection circuits, enabling the switching circuit to switch the connection between the network interface and the corresponding detection circuit and the power supply management circuit, that is, the switching circuit can be switched to the connection between the network interface and the corresponding detection circuit, or the connection between the network interface and the power supply management circuit 50.For example, when one of the four network interfaces is connected to an external PSE device, a first-level enable signal is generated by the detection circuit corresponding to the network interface, and the power supply voltage provided by the external PSE device is rectified to generate a rectified voltage. The logic processing circuit 30 generates a valid (i.e., second-level) voltage transformation enable signal and a second-level switching enable signal according to the high-level enable signal. The second-level voltage transformation enable signal enables the voltage transformation conversion circuit 40 to perform voltage conversion and other processing on the power supply voltage provided by the external PSE device to generate a power supply voltage, and the power supply management circuit 50 and the internal powered load are powered by the power supply voltage; the second-level enable signal enables the switching switch circuits corresponding to other network interfaces other than the network interface to switch to connect the corresponding network interface and the power supply management circuit 50, and switches the other network interfaces other than the network interface corresponding to the external PSE device to the power supply interface.
