[0003] In actual application scenarios, the standby time of these radar sensors is generally required to be relatively long, such as one or two years, to avoid the poor user experience caused by frequent battery removal and replacement. However, the operation of the radar sensor controller and radar sensor module inevitably consumes a lot of power, which greatly shortens the standby time. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present application proposes a latch circuit and a sensor device based on the latch circuit.

[0076] Figure 4 Based on Figure 1 The working principle timing diagram of the radar sensor of the prior art is shown in FIG. Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the existing radar sensor 1 is composed of a controller 102, a radar sensor module 101, and a battery power module 103. When the radar sensor 1 based on the above structure monitors a person in an actual application scenario, the working logic is as follows:

[0077] (1) When no one enters the monitoring area: the radar sensor module 101 of the radar sensor 1 is continuously in working state and monitors whether there is a person or object entering the monitoring area, and its sensing signal is a low-level signal; based on this, the controller 102 is in a deep sleep state, that is, a low-power standby state, and waits for the radar sensor module 101 to wake up the sensing signal;

[0078] (2) When someone enters the monitoring area: When the radar sensor module 101 detects the movement of a person object entering the monitoring area, the sensing signal is a high-level pulse signal, and the controller 102 is awakened to send a reporting message; further, when the radar sensor module 101 frequently detects the movement of a person object in the monitoring area, the controller 102 will be awakened frequently; therefore, the radar sensor module 101 and the controller 102 will be frequently in working state.

[0079] Based on the operating logic of the aforementioned radar sensor, the present embodiment reduces power consumption by enabling the controller 102 to be awakened at regular intervals to respond to the radar module. Furthermore, considering that only configuring the controller 102 to operate at intervals would result in loss of sensing signals, making it impossible to accurately record whether a person or object has entered the monitoring area, the present embodiment provides a latch circuit and a sensor device based on the latch circuit.

[0080] Figure 2 is a circuit diagram of a latch circuit according to an embodiment of the present application, refer to Figure 2 As shown, the latch circuit of the embodiment of the present application at least includes:

[0081] Comparator U5, the first input end of the comparator U5 is electrically connected to the external sensor module via the first buffer resistor R52, the second input end of the comparator U5 is electrically connected to the external controller via the second buffer resistor R51, the comparator U5 receives the sensing signal DEOUT output by the external sensor module and the control signal Rest Gate output by the external controller, and outputs a latched level signal Radar Out. Optionally, the comparator U5 adopts an OR gate comparator. Figure 2 As shown, A and B of the comparator U5 are the first input terminal and the second input terminal respectively, and Y is the output terminal. As long as either A or B is high, the Y output is high; only when A and B are low at the same time, the Y output is low.

[0082] The feedback resistor R46 is electrically connected between the output terminal and the second input terminal of the comparator U5, so that the second input terminal of the comparator U5 receives the feedback signal from the output terminal. Based on the feedback resistor R46, the output terminal of the comparator U5 can be prevented from being directly grounded, thereby avoiding increased power consumption.

[0083] The switch circuit 11 is electrically connected between the second buffer resistor R51 and the second input terminal. Specifically, the switch circuit 11 includes at least: a switch transistor Q2, the gate of which is connected to the output terminal of the second buffer resistor R51, the drain of which is connected to the second input terminal, and the source of which is connected to the ground level; and a pull-down resistor R50, which is connected in parallel between the gate and source of the switch transistor Q2. Optionally, the switch transistor Q2 is an enhanced N-type field-effect transistor. Based on this switch circuit, the second input terminal of the comparator U5 is a low-level signal. It is worth noting that the switch circuit 11 of the embodiment of the present application can also be omitted, and the second input terminal can be directly connected to an external controller. As an alternative to the switch circuit 11, the external controller outputs a high-impedance control signal Rest Gate.

[0084] The first filter circuit 12 is connected in parallel between the first buffer resistor R52 and the first input terminal; the second filter circuit 13 is connected in parallel between the drain of the switch tube Q2 and the second input terminal. Optionally, the first filter circuit 12 and the second filter circuit 13 are RC filter circuits. Specifically, the first filter circuit 12 at least includes: a first filter resistor R49, one end of which is connected to the output terminal of the first buffer resistor R52 and the other end is connected to the ground level; a first filter capacitor C14, which is connected in parallel to the first filter resistor R49. The second filter circuit 13 at least includes: a second filter resistor R48, one end of which is connected to the second input terminal and the other end is connected to the ground level; a second filter capacitor C15, which is connected in parallel to the second filter resistor R48. The above-mentioned first filter circuit 12 and second filter circuit 13 provide a discharge path for the charge generated by electrostatic discharge inside the circuit, thereby improving the circuit's anti-interference ability.

[0085] Based on the above latch circuit, when the sensing signal DEOUT of the external sensor module is a high-level pulse signal, the signal is input to the first input terminal of the comparator U5. According to the OR gate logic, the latch level signal Radar Out of the comparator U5 is a high-level pulse signal and the second input terminal of the comparator U5 is a high-level signal through the feedback resistor R46, entering a self-locking state, so that the comparator U5 continues to output the high-level latch level signal Radar Out, thereby realizing the latch signal; when the control signal Rest Gate is a high-level pulse signal, the signal turns on the switch circuit. After turning on, a low-level signal is input to the second input terminal of the comparator U5, and the above-mentioned self-locking state is released. At this time, the output of the latch circuit is adjusted accordingly according to the sensing signal DEOUT. Specifically, if the sensing signal DEOUT is a high-level pulse signal, the latch enters the self-locking state again. If the sensing signal DEOUT is a low-level pulse signal, the latch outputs the low-level latch level signal Radar Out.

[0086] In addition, based on the latch circuit as described in the above embodiment, the application further discloses a sensor device.

[0090] The latch circuit 204 at least includes:

[0091] The comparator U5 has a first input end electrically connected to the sensor module 201 through a first buffer resistor R52, and a second input end electrically connected to the controller 202 through a second buffer resistor R51, and receives an induction signal DEOUT output by the sensor module 201 and a control signal Rest Gate output by the controller 202, and outputs a latch level signal Radar Out, and optionally, the comparator U5 adopts an OR gate comparator. The controller 202 is configured to output the control signal Rest Gate as a high-level pulse after reading the latch level signal Radar Out, so as to control the latch circuit 204 to release the self-locking state.

[0092] The feedback resistor R46 is electrically connected between the output end and the second input end of the comparator U5, so that the second input end of the comparator U5 receives a feedback signal from the output end, and based on the feedback resistor R46, the output end of the comparator U5 can be prevented from being directly grounded, thereby avoiding an increase in power consumption.

[0093] The switch circuit 11 is electrically connected between the second buffer resistor R51 and the second input terminal. Specifically, the switch circuit 11 includes at least: a switch tube Q2, the gate of the switch tube Q2 is connected to the output terminal of the second buffer resistor R51, the drain of the switch tube Q2 is connected to the second input terminal, and the source of the switch tube Q2 is connected to the ground level; and a pull-down resistor R50, the pull-down resistor R50 is connected in parallel between the gate and source of the switch tube Q2. Optionally, the switch tube Q2 adopts an enhanced N-type field-effect transistor. Based on this switch circuit, the second input terminal of the comparator U5 is a low-level signal. It is worth noting that the switch circuit 11 of the embodiment of the present application can also be omitted, and the second input terminal can be directly connected to an external controller. As an alternative to the switch circuit 11, the external controller outputs a high-impedance control signal Rest Gate.

[0094] The first filter circuit 12 is connected in parallel between the first buffer resistor R52 and the first input terminal; the second filter circuit 13 is connected in parallel between the drain of the switch tube Q2 and the second input terminal. Optionally, the first filter circuit 12 and the second filter circuit 13 are RC filter circuits.

[0095] Based on the sensor device described above, Figure 5 The working principle timing diagram of the sensor device according to the embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. Figure 5As shown, when the sensor of the embodiment of the present application is in operation, the controller 202 periodically switches between a deep sleep state and an awake state according to a deep sleep cycle T, and reads the latched level signal Radar Out. Based on this, if a person enters the monitoring area during the controller 202's deep sleep cycle T, the sensor module 201's sensing signal DEOUT becomes a high-level pulse signal, and the latch circuit 204 enters a self-locking state, outputting the latched level signal Radar Out as a high-level signal and maintaining this high-level signal. When the controller 202 wakes up, it reads the latched level signal Radar Out, sends a reporting signal to other master control devices, and issues a high-level pulse control signal Reset Gate to release the latch circuit 204 from the self-locking state. In this way, frequent awakening of the controller 202 is avoided, and sensor signals within the deep sleep cycle T are not lost. The latch circuit 204 enables the controller 202 to operate in a low-power deep sleep state for a longer period of time, ensuring the accuracy of monitoring human and object activities in the target application scenario, while also reducing the power consumption of the sensor device, thereby extending the battery life of the device and thus extending the device's operating time.
