[0066] like Figure 3 As shown, in the second switching state, the first semiconductor device Q1 is turned on, the first switch tube S1 and the second switch tube are turned off, and the battery, the first inductor L1, the first semiconductor device Q1 and the first capacitor C1 form a conductive loop. The voltage vL1 across the first inductor L1 is equal to the negative voltage vC1 of the first capacitor C1 minus the battery voltage vin, that is, vL1 = -(vC1-vin) and is less than zero.

[0078] When performing a loop resistance test, Figure 12 MCU processor circuit receiving Figure 10 The signal v1 after the voltage vc1 of the first capacitor C1 passes through the voltage sampling circuit, the signal v2 after the voltage vc2 of the second capacitor C2 passes through the voltage sampling circuit, and Figure 11 The circuit breaker resistance current io to be measured is signaled by the current sampling circuit i1; Figure 13 、 14 , 15 and 16 are calculated by internal program PI algorithm and repetitive control algorithm, and output control signals vd1, vd2, vd3 and vd4 respectively, and Figure 18 and 19 The driving circuit outputs driving signals vgs1, vgs2, vgs3 and vgs4 respectively, which are transmitted to the first switch tube S1, the first semiconductor device Q1, the second switch tube S2 and the second semiconductor device Q2 respectively, and control the first switch tube S1, the first semiconductor device Q1, the second switch tube S2 and the second semiconductor device Q2 to be turned on or off respectively, so that the test circuit can output low voltage and high current, and use the following methods: Figure 18 The effective value algorithm and division algorithm shown calculate the resistance value of the circuit breaker to be measured.

[0079] like Figure 17As shown, the circuit breaker resistance current io to be measured adopts a composite control method in which a PI algorithm and a repetitive control algorithm are connected in parallel. During the transient process, due to the fast response speed of the PI controller, the PI regulator is mainly used for regulation, thereby achieving a faster response speed for the circuit breaker resistance current io to be measured. In the steady state, due to the error-free tracking capability of the repetitive controller, the repetitive controller is mainly used for regulation, thereby achieving error-free tracking of the circuit breaker resistance current io to be measured. The sum of the output signals of the PI regulator and the repetitive controller is modulated to obtain a drive signal for the second switch tube S2 and the second semiconductor device Q2, and is simultaneously used as a reference signal for the first capacitor voltage, thereby ensuring that the test circuit achieves a fast and accurate output of a low-voltage and high-current.

[0080] The first capacitor C1 and the second capacitor C2 are supercapacitors, which have the advantages of high power density, high energy conversion efficiency and fast high current charging and discharging speed. They can achieve low voltage and high current discharge of the circuit breaker resistance to be tested in a relatively short time.

[0081] Compared with the traditional single-stage circuit, the test circuit adopts a two-stage method. First, the battery charges the first capacitor C1 with a small current through the first stage, and then the first capacitor C1 discharges the circuit breaker resistor to be tested with a low voltage and a large current through the second stage. This avoids the battery directly discharging the circuit breaker resistor to be tested with a low voltage and a large current, greatly reducing the battery discharge current. This not only reduces battery loss and increases the number of times the battery can be used, but also extends the overall service life of the battery.

[0082] Compared with the traditional single-stage circuit, the test circuit adopts a multi-variable closed-loop feedback control method. When automatically adjusting the current io of the circuit breaker resistance to be tested, it can also automatically adjust the voltage vc1 of the first capacitor C1, realizing multi-variable automatic adjustment, so the adjustment speed is faster and the accuracy is higher.

[0083] like Figure 19 As shown, the first driving circuit includes a first driving chip, which receives the signal of the single chip processing circuit and drives the first semiconductor device Q1 and the first switch tube S1; Figure 20 As shown, the second driving circuit includes a second driving chip, which receives the signal of the single chip processing circuit and drives the first semiconductor device Q2 and the first switch tube S2

[0085] In summary, the present invention provides a loop resistance test system, in which the test circuit is powered by a battery, and there is no need to draw power from a maintenance power box over a long distance. The system is safe, reliable, and easy to move and carry. The switching power supply circuit is used to control the switch tube to first allow the battery to charge the inductor and supercapacitor with a small current, and then allow the inductor and supercapacitor to discharge the resistance to be tested of the circuit breaker with a low voltage and a large current in a relatively short time; the test circuit has a built-in boost circuit, which only requires a lower input voltage, and a smaller number of batteries are required. When the battery is discharged, there is a series inductor to limit the current, and the battery discharge current is small, which not only reduces the battery loss and increases the number of times the battery can be used, but also extends the overall service life of the battery. The test circuit does not use a transformer The device not only has low loss, but also greatly reduces the size and weight of the device. In addition, the use of a switching power supply circuit requires small and light components, simplifies the circuit, and reduces the cost. No resistors are used to limit current or divide voltage in the test circuit. Most of the battery energy is transferred to the circuit breaker resistor to be tested. The test circuit has high efficiency and low loss. A two-stage method is adopted. First, the battery charges the first capacitor C1 with a small current through the first stage, and then the first capacitor C1 is discharged with a low voltage and a large current to the circuit breaker resistor to be tested through the second stage. This avoids the battery directly discharging with a low voltage and a large current to the circuit breaker resistor to be tested, greatly reduces the battery discharge current, reduces battery loss, increases the number of times the battery can be used, and extends the overall service life of the battery.
