[0014] See also Figure 1 , which is a schematic diagram of the structure of an electric device 10 disclosed in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 As shown, the electric device 10 includes a power supply device 100 , a switch circuit 200 and a load device 300 .
[0015] The power supply device 100 is electrically connected to the load device 300 via the switch circuit 200 , and is used to transmit the power signal to the load device 300 when the switch circuit 200 is in the on state.
[0016] In the embodiment of the present application, the power supply device 100 can be composed of a battery, which is a nickel-cadmium battery or a lithium polymer battery or other battery types that can provide a power signal to the load device 300, and the embodiment of the present application does not make specific limitations on this.
[0017] In the embodiment of the present application, the power supply device 100 can also be composed of a generator, which is supported by a combustible energy source. The combustible energy source includes natural or artificial fuels such as hydrogen, gasoline, and natural gas. The embodiment of the present application does not make any specific limitations on this.
[0018] In the embodiment of the present application, the power supply device 100 may also be composed of a battery and a generator at the same time, and the battery and the generator are used to provide a power signal to the load device 300.
[0019] The load device 300 is used to receive the power signal output by the power supply device, so as to drive the internal components to perform work according to the power signal.
[0020] In the embodiment of the present application, the load device 300 is a device that can perform work under the action of an electrical signal, and can be an electric ignition device or a drive motor or other electric drive device, which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application.
[0021] The switch circuit 200 is electrically connected between the power supply device 100 and the load device 300, and is used to transmit the power signal output by the power supply device 100 to the load device 300 when in the on state, and is also used to stop transmitting the power signal output by the power supply device 100 to the load device 300 when in the off state.
[0022] In the embodiment of the present application, the electric device 10 provides a power signal to the load device 300 through the power supply device 100, and the load device 300 drives the electronic components inside it to work according to the power signal. At the same time, the switch circuit 200 provided between the power supply device 100 and the load device 300 can control the transmission of the power signal output by the power supply device 100 to realize power supply or power off to the load device 300.
[0023] See also Figure 2 , which is Figure 1 The schematic diagram of a switch circuit in an electric device is shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown, the switch circuit 200 includes a control unit 201 , a driving unit 202 , a voltage mutation unit 203 and a connecting unit 204 .
[0024] The connection unit 204 is electrically connected between the power supply device 100 and the load device 300 , and is used to connect or disconnect the electrical connection between the power supply device 100 and the load device 300 .
[0025] The control unit 201 is electrically connected to the driving unit 202, and the driving unit 202 is also electrically connected to the connecting unit 204. The control unit 201 is used to output an enable signal to the driving unit 202 to control the driving unit 202 to output or stop outputting the driving signal to the connecting unit 204. The driving signal is used to turn on the connecting unit 204. The connecting unit 204 is in a conducting state when receiving the driving signal, and is in a cut-off state when not receiving the driving signal.
[0026] A driving node B is formed between the driving unit 202 and the connecting unit 204 , and the voltage mutation unit 203 is electrically connected to the driving node B.
[0027] The control unit 201 is also electrically connected to the voltage mutation unit 203, and is used to output the enable signal to the voltage mutation unit 203, so as to control the voltage mutation unit 203 to generate and output a voltage mutation signal to the driving node B. The voltage mutation signal is used to control the potential of the driving node B to mutate when the driving unit 202 stops outputting the driving signal, so that the connecting unit 204 can quickly switch from the on state to the off state when no driving signal is received.
[0028] In the prior art, the connection unit 204 is in the on state when receiving the driving signal, and is in the off state when not receiving the driving signal. However, the power MOS tube used by the connection unit 204 usually has parasitic capacitance. When the power MOS tube does not receive the driving signal, the residual charge in its parasitic capacitance causes the power MOS tube to remain in the on state until the residual charge is discharged to the point where the power MOS tube cannot be turned on. Therefore, when the driving unit 202 stops outputting the driving signal, the slow discharge of the parasitic capacitance causes the power MOS tube to operate in the linear region, which puts the power MOS tube at risk of burning out, and makes the connection unit 204 unable to switch to the off state, thereby making the switch circuit 200 unsafe and unreliable.
[0029] The voltage mutation unit 203 used in the switch circuit 200 of the present application can generate a voltage mutation signal to control the potential of the driving node B to mutate when the driving unit 202 stops outputting the driving signal, so that the parasitic capacitance in the power MOS tube used by the connecting unit 204 is quickly discharged to zero and the power MOS tube is quickly switched to the cut-off state, thereby preventing the power MOS tube from falling into the linear working area and being burned, thereby improving the reliability of the switch circuit 200 during operation.
[0030] In the embodiment of the present application, the control unit 201 can be a microcontroller unit (MCU) or a field programmable gate array (FPGA) or other integrated circuits that can control subsequent units, and the embodiment of the present application does not make specific limitations on this.
[0031] In an embodiment of the present application, the enable signal output by the control unit 201 includes a first voltage signal and a second voltage signal, wherein the first voltage signal is used to control the driving unit 202 to output a driving signal so that the connecting unit 204 enters an on state. At this time, the switching circuit 200 is in an on state, and the power supply device 100 and the load device 300 can be electrically connected via the switching circuit 200.
[0032] The second voltage signal is used to control the driving unit 202 to stop outputting the driving signal so that the connecting unit 204 enters the cut-off state, and at the same time controls the voltage mutation unit 203 to generate and output the voltage mutation signal, so as to control the potential of the driving node B to suddenly change when the driving unit 202 stops outputting the driving signal, so that the connecting unit 204 quickly switches from the on state to the off state. At this time, the switching circuit 200 is in the cut-off state, and the power supply device 100 and the load device 300 cannot be electrically connected through the switching circuit.
[0033] It is understandable that before the driving unit 202 stops outputting the driving signal, the potential of the driving node B is in a high level state due to receiving the driving signal. The control of the potential of the driving node B to change suddenly in the embodiment of the present application means that when the driving unit 202 stops outputting the driving signal, the voltage mutation unit 203 quickly pulls down the potential of the driving node B, that is, suddenly changes from a high level to a low level, so that the parasitic capacitance in the power MOS tube in the connecting unit 204 is quickly discharged to zero and the power MOS tube is quickly switched to the cut-off state, so that the connecting unit 204 can quickly enter the cut-off state.
[0034] See also Figure 3 , which is Figure 2 The schematic diagram of the specific circuit structure of the switch circuit is shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, the control unit 201 is electrically connected to the control node A, and is used to output an enable signal to the control node A, and then the control node A transmits the enable signal to the driving unit 202 and the voltage mutation unit 203.
[0035] Specifically, in this embodiment, the driving unit 202 includes a first input terminal IN1 , a first transistor Q1 , and a second transistor Q2 .
[0036] The first transistor Q1 is a P-type MOS transistor, and the second transistor Q2 is an NPN transistor.
[0037] The first input terminal IN1 is used to receive an input driving signal, the source of the first transistor Q1 is electrically connected to the first input terminal IN1, and the drain of the first transistor Q1 is electrically connected to the driving node B. The gate of the first transistor Q1 is electrically connected to the source of the first transistor Q1 through the first resistor R1, and is electrically connected to the collector of the second transistor Q2 through the second resistor R2.
[0038] The emitter of the second transistor Q2 is electrically connected to the ground terminal GND, and the base of the second transistor Q2 is electrically connected to the control node A.
[0039] In the embodiment of the present application, the second transistor Q2 in the driving unit 202 receives the enable signal transmitted by the control node A to achieve conduction or cutoff. Specifically, if the enable signal at the control node A is at a high level, the second transistor Q2 is turned on by the enable signal. At this time, the gate of the first transistor Q1 is electrically connected to the ground terminal GND through the second resistor R2 and the turned-on second transistor Q2, so that the gate level of the first transistor Q1 is pulled down, so that the first transistor Q1 is turned on, and the driving signal received by the first input terminal IN1 can be transmitted to the driving node B, thereby making the connection unit 204 in a conducting state; if the enable signal at the control node A is at a low level, the second transistor Q2 is cut off by the enable signal. At this time, the gate of the first transistor Q1 is connected to the first input terminal IN1 through the first resistor R1, so that the gate level of the first transistor Q1 is pulled up, so that the first transistor Q1 is cut off, so that the driving signal can no longer be transmitted to the driving node B through the second transistor Q2, and then the connection unit 204 is in a disconnected state.
[0040] The voltage mutation unit 203 includes a second input terminal IN2, a third transistor Q3, a first capacitor C1, a first voltage regulator diode D1 and a fourth transistor Q4.
[0041] The third transistor Q3 is an NPN transistor, and the fourth transistor Q4 is an N-type MOS transistor.
[0042] The second input terminal IN2 is electrically connected to the collector of the third transistor Q3 and the first capacitor node C of the first capacitor C1 through the third resistor R3. The second input terminal IN2 is used to receive an input charging voltage.
[0043] The second capacitor node D of the first capacitor C1 is electrically connected to the ground terminal GND through the fourth resistor R4.
[0044] The base of the third transistor Q3 is electrically connected to the control node A, the emitter of the third transistor Q3 is electrically connected to the ground terminal GND, and the collector of the third transistor Q3 is electrically connected to the first capacitor node C of the first capacitor C1.
[0045] An anode of the first diode D1 is electrically connected to the driving node B, and a cathode of the first diode D1 is electrically connected to a drain of the fourth transistor Q4 via a fifth resistor R5.
[0046] The gate of the fourth transistor Q4 is electrically connected to the second capacitor node D, and the source of the fourth transistor Q4 is electrically connected to the ground terminal GND. The gate of the fourth transistor Q4 is also electrically connected to the source of the fourth transistor Q4 through a fourth resistor R4.
[0047] In the embodiment of the present application, the third transistor Q3 in the voltage mutation unit 203 receives an enable signal transmitted by the control node A to achieve on or off. The fourth transistor Q4 is switched between on and off states by the potential of the second capacitor node D.
[0048] When in use, in the initial state, the control unit 201 outputs a low-level enable signal, the third transistor Q3 is turned off by the enable signal, the second input terminal IN2, the third resistor R3, the first capacitor C1, the fourth resistor R4 and the ground terminal GND form a current loop, so that the first capacitor C1 receives the charging voltage of the second input terminal IN2 and charges, at this time, the first capacitor node C is connected to the second input terminal IN2 through the third resistor R3, so that the potential at the first capacitor node C is in a high-level state due to the high-level signal input by the second input terminal IN2 and the maintenance of the first capacitor C1, and the second capacitor node D is electrically connected to the ground terminal GND through the fourth resistor R4, so that the second capacitor node D is in a low-level state, and the fourth transistor Q4 is turned off. It can be understood that after charging, the voltage difference between the two ends of the first capacitor C1 is relatively high.
[0049] At the beginning of the operation, when the control unit 201 outputs a high-level enable signal, as described above, the drive signal input by the first input terminal IN1 can be transmitted to the drive node B, that is, the drive node B is in a high-level state, and the connection unit 204 is in a conducting state. The third transistor Q3 is turned on by the enable signal, and the first capacitor node C is electrically connected to the ground terminal GND through the turned-on third transistor Q3, so that the potential of the first capacitor node C is suddenly changed from a high-level state to a low-level state. At this time, since the voltage difference between the two ends of the first capacitor C1 is relatively high, and the capacitance characteristics of the first capacitor C1 do not allow the voltage difference between its two ends to suddenly change, so that the potential at the second capacitor node D is suddenly changed from a low level to a high level state, so as to keep the voltage difference between the two ends of the first capacitor C1 unchanged, and the fourth transistor Q4 is turned on. Since the first capacitor C1 is electrically connected to the ground terminal GND through the fourth resistor R4 and gradually discharges, the potential at the second capacitor node D is gradually reduced. When the voltage at the second capacitor node D discharged from the first capacitor C1 is lower than the turn-on voltage Vgs (th) of the fourth transistor Q4, the fourth transistor Q4 is turned off.
[0050] It can be understood that after discharging, the voltage difference across the first capacitor C1 is relatively low.
[0051] It can be understood that during the period when the fourth transistor Q4 is turned on and off, the driving node B receives the driving voltage, and the connecting unit 204 remains in the on state.
[0052] When the control unit 201 outputs a low-level enable signal, as described above, the drive signal input by the first input terminal IN1 cannot be transmitted to the drive node B. The third transistor Q3 is cut off by the enable signal, the first capacitor node C is disconnected from the ground terminal GND, and the first capacitor node C is electrically connected to the second input terminal IN2 through the third resistor R3, so that the potential at the first capacitor node C suddenly changes from a low level to a high level state. At this time, since the voltage difference across the first capacitor C1 is low, and the capacitance characteristics of the first capacitor C1 do not allow the voltage difference across the first capacitor C1 to suddenly change, the potential at the second capacitor node D suddenly changes from a low level to a high level state, so as to keep the voltage difference across the first capacitor C1 unchanged, and the fourth transistor Q4 is turned on. The residual charge in the parasitic capacitance of the MOS tube in the connecting unit 204 is rapidly discharged through a loop formed by the driving node B, the first diode D1, the fifth resistor R5, the fourth transistor Q4 and the ground terminal GND, so that the residual charge of the MOS tube in the connecting unit 204 is rapidly returned to zero, so that the MOS tube in the connecting unit 204 is rapidly turned off, and the connecting unit 204 is rapidly switched from the on state to the off state.
[0053] It can be understood that, since the first capacitor C1 is electrically connected to the ground terminal GND through the fourth resistor R4 and gradually discharges, the potential at the second capacitor node D gradually decreases. When the voltage at the second capacitor node D discharged by the first capacitor C1 is lower than the turn-on voltage Vgs(th) of the fourth transistor Q4, the fourth transistor Q4 is turned off. After the fourth transistor Q4 is turned off, the driving node B does not receive the driving voltage, and the connecting unit 204 remains in the disconnected state.
[0054] The connection unit 204 includes a first connection terminal J1, a second connection terminal J2, a second diode D2, a third diode D3, and a plurality of connection sub-units.
[0055] The anode of the second diode D2 is electrically connected to the driving node B, and the cathode of the second diode D2 is electrically connected to the first connection terminal J1 through the sixth resistor R6. The first connection terminal J1 is used to connect one of the power supply device 100 and the load device 300.
[0056] An anode of the third diode D3 is electrically connected to the driving node B, and a cathode of the third diode D3 is electrically connected to the second connection terminal J2 through the seventh resistor R7. The second connection terminal J2 is used to connect the load device 300 and another device in the power supply device 100.
[0057] The structures of the multiple connecting subunits are similar. In the present application, one of the connecting subunits is taken as an example to introduce the structure of each connecting subunit in detail.
[0058] The connecting subunit includes a fifth transistor Q5 and a sixth transistor Q6, wherein the fifth transistor Q5 and the sixth transistor Q6 are both N-type transistors.
[0059] The gate of the fifth transistor Q5 is electrically connected to the driving node B through the eighth resistor R8, the source of the fifth transistor Q5 is electrically connected to the first connection terminal J1, and the drain of the fifth transistor Q5 is electrically connected to the transmission node E, and the transmission node E is used to transmit the electrical signal between the first connection terminal J1 and the second connection terminal J2.
[0060] The gate of the sixth transistor Q6 is electrically connected to the driving node B through the ninth resistor R9 , the source of the sixth transistor Q6 is electrically connected to the second connection terminal J2 , and the drain of the sixth transistor Q6 is electrically connected to the transmission node E.
[0061] In the embodiment of the present application, the connection unit 204 includes four connection subunits, and the four connection subunits work in parallel, that is, after one of the connection subunits is damaged, the other connection subunits can continue to work, and the current transmission capacity of the connection unit 204 can also be improved. It can be understood that the number of connection subunits in the connection unit 204 can be increased or decreased according to actual needs, and the embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit this.
[0062] In the embodiment of the present application, the MOS transistor in the connection unit 204 is switched between the on state and the off state by the potential signal at the driving node B. That is, in the initial state, the control unit 201 outputs a low-level enable signal, the first transistor Q1 is turned off by the enable signal, and the drive signal input by the first input terminal IN1 cannot be output to the MOS transistor in the connection unit 204 through the first transistor Q1, and the MOS transistor in the connection unit 204 is therefore in the off state. When starting to work, the control unit 201 outputs a high-level enable signal, the drive signal input by the first input terminal IN1 can be transmitted to the driving node B so that the driving node B is in a high-level state, the MOS transistor in the connection unit 204 is in the on state, and the power supply device 100 and the load device 300 electrically connected to the first connection terminal J1 and the second connection terminal J2 are electrically connected. When the work is finished, the control unit outputs a low-level enable signal, and the driving signal input by the first input terminal IN1 cannot be transmitted to the driving node B. The residual charge in the parasitic capacitance of the MOS tube in the connecting unit 204 is discharged to zero through the voltage mutation unit 203 electrically connected to the driving node B, so that the MOS tube in the output connecting unit 204 is quickly turned off, and the connecting unit 204 is quickly switched from the on state to the off state, and the power supply device 100 is electrically disconnected from the load device 300.
[0063] Compared with the prior art, the voltage mutation unit 203 used in the switch circuit 200 disclosed in the embodiment of the present application can generate a voltage mutation signal to control the potential of the driving node B to mutate when the driving unit 202 stops outputting the driving signal that can turn on the connecting unit 204, so that the parasitic capacitance in the power MOS tube used by the connecting unit 204 is quickly discharged to zero and the power MOS tube is quickly switched to the cut-off state, thereby preventing the power MOS tube from falling into the linear working area and being burned, thereby improving the reliability of the switch circuit 200 during operation.
