Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of power supply circuit testing technology, and in particular to a correction system for DC power supply circuits. Background Technology

[0002] A power supply circuit is a circuit design that provides power to electronic components in electronic devices. It uses various circuit forms and has different characteristics, including both AC and DC power supplies.

[0003] During operation, the power supply circuit provides continuous power to the electronic device in real time. However, due to long-term operation, the power supply circuit may gradually or even frequently experience current drift and voltage instability, which may affect the normal operation of the electronic device.

[0004] The existing technology solves the above problems by repairing or replacing the power supply. Repairing requires inspecting and checking each electronic component in the power supply circuit to pinpoint the fault. This method is time-consuming, and sometimes the decision to replace the power supply is made after identifying the fault, leading to excessive repair time and affecting the normal operation of electronic equipment. However, replacing the power supply frequently results in wasted power and increased costs. In short, regardless of the method used, all methods rely on repair to maintain the power supply circuit and cannot guarantee that the output current of the power supply circuit remains constant in real time. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the technical problem that the aforementioned maintenance methods for power supply circuits cannot ensure that the output current of the power supply circuit remains constant in real time, this invention provides a correction system for DC power supply circuits. This system uses a sensing module, a calculation module, and a compensation module to detect and calculate the instantaneous current of the power supply circuit and outputs a compensation current to the power supply circuit.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solution:

[0007] A correction system for a DC power supply circuit, comprising:

[0008] The sensing module is electrically connected to the power supply circuit and is used to sense the instantaneous signal output by the power supply circuit.

[0009] The conversion module, electrically connected to the sensing module, is used to convert instantaneous signals into characteristic quantities, which are analog values ​​representing instantaneous signals.

[0010] The calculation module, electrically connected to the conversion module, is used to acquire feature quantities and calculate the difference between the feature quantities and the preset quantities according to a preset algorithm to obtain the missing quantity value. The preset quantity is an analog quantity value that is preset in the calculation module to represent the output current of the power supply circuit.

[0011] The compensation module, electrically connected to the calculation module, is used to output a compensation current based on the missing value to eliminate the drift of the power supply circuit.

[0012] Compared with existing technologies, this invention has the following advantages: The sensing module is connected in series in the power supply circuit, real-time sensing and acquisition of the instantaneous signal of the power supply circuit, and transmits the instantaneous signal to the conversion module. The conversion module converts the instantaneous current into an analog value representing the instantaneous signal and transmits it to the calculation module. The calculation module uses the analog value to calculate the missing value of the instantaneous current in a preset algorithm, and transmits the missing value to the compensation module. The compensation module outputs a compensation current to the power supply circuit based on the missing value, ensuring that the power supply circuit outputs a constant current at any time. This achieves maintenance of the power supply circuit, directly replacing the method of repairing or replacing the power supply circuit. It not only does not affect the normal operation of electronic equipment, but also avoids the waste caused by repairing or replacing the power supply, reducing costs.

[0013] More preferably, the sensing module includes:

[0014] The copper foil is connected in series with the power supply circuit. When the current from the power supply circuit passes through the copper foil, the copper foil generates a magnetic field.

[0015] The sensor circuit is electrically connected to the copper foil and is used to induce a voltage signal in the magnetic field. The voltage signal is then processed to obtain an instantaneous signal, which is a signal that directly reflects the instantaneous current flowing through the copper foil.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, an instantaneous magnetic field is generated by the instantaneous current flowing through the copper foil. The sensor circuit induces an instantaneous voltage signal in the instantaneous magnetic field and processes it to obtain a transformed current signal, thereby achieving the purpose of collecting the instantaneous current in the power supply circuit.

[0017] More preferably, the copper foil is connected to the positive and negative terminals of the power supply circuit respectively, in order to obtain the current output by the power supply circuit and generate a magnetic field.

[0018] The above technical solution is used to obtain the current flowing through the copper foil in the power supply circuit.

[0019] More preferably, the sensor circuit includes:

[0020] A Hall sensor, connected to copper foil, is used to sense and acquire voltage signals.

[0021] The chopper circuit, electrically connected to one output terminal of the Hall sensor, is used to convert the instantaneous current flowing through the copper foil into an instantaneous signal, which is an instantaneous pulse wave signal.

[0022] The filtering circuit, electrically connected to the other output terminal of the Hall sensor, is used to filter the current flowing through the Hall sensor.

[0023] Using the above technical solution, the voltage signal collected by the Hall sensor is transmitted to the chopper circuit. The chopper circuit processes the voltage signal to obtain an instantaneous signal with a pulse wave. At the same time, a filter circuit filters the instantaneous current and outputs an instantaneous signal.

[0024] Further optimization results in the chopper circuit including:

[0025] The first capacitor is electrically connected to one output terminal of the Hall sensor.

[0026] The field-effect transistor is connected in series with the first capacitor.

[0027] A resistor, connected in series with a field-effect transistor and then to a power supply circuit, is used to output a pulse wave signal.

[0028] Using the above technical solution, the instantaneous current is chopped by a field-effect transistor, a first capacitor, and a resistor.

[0029] Further optimization results in a filter circuit comprising:

[0030] The second capacitor is electrically connected to the other end of the Hall sensor and is used to filter the current output by the Hall sensor.

[0031] The above technical solution is adopted to eliminate interference signals in the current signal.

[0032] Further optimization involves using an analog-to-digital converter in the conversion module to convert instantaneous signals into digital values ​​representing the magnitude of the current, providing a basis for calculating the missing values ​​of the instantaneous current.

[0033] Further optimization is performed, with the preset algorithm as follows:

[0034] I = (I1 + I2 + I3 + ... + In) / n (1)

[0035] I△=|I-Imean| (2);

[0036] Where I is the average current, I1 is the first instantaneous current, I2 is the second instantaneous current, I3 is the third instantaneous current, In is the nth instantaneous current, IΔ is the missing current, and Imean is the characteristic current.

[0037] Using the above technical solution, the average current of the power supply circuit is calculated by formula (1), and the difference between the instantaneous current and the average current is calculated by formula (2). The missing value of the instantaneous current can be obtained, which provides an accurate basis for the compensation module to output the compensation current.

[0038] Further optimization is made so that the characteristic current is any one of the first instantaneous current, the second instantaneous current, the third instantaneous current, and the nth instantaneous current.

[0039] By adopting the above technical solution, the instantaneous current at any time can be obtained, and then the current loss value at any time can be calculated by a preset algorithm, and then the compensation current at any time can be obtained from the compensation module.

[0040] Further optimization involves using a current compensation circuit for the compensation module.

[0041] By adopting the above technical solution, the current output by the power supply circuit can be compensated to ensure that the instantaneous current is constant at any time, thus ensuring the normal operation of electronic equipment. Attached Figure Description

[0046] During operation, the power supply circuit provides continuous power to the electronic device in real time. However, due to long-term operation, the power supply circuit may gradually or even frequently experience unstable output current and voltage, which may affect the normal operation of the electronic device.

[0047] The existing technology solves the above problems by repairing or replacing the power supply. Repairing requires inspecting and checking each electronic component in the power supply circuit to pinpoint the fault. This method is time-consuming, and sometimes the decision to replace the power supply is made after identifying the fault, leading to excessive repair time and affecting the normal operation of electronic equipment. However, replacing the power supply frequently results in wasted power and increased costs. In short, regardless of the method used, all methods rely on repair to maintain the power supply circuit and cannot guarantee that the output current of the power supply circuit remains constant in real time.

[0048] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this application proposes the following design and concept: a system is needed that can detect the power circuit current in real time and take timely compensation measures during the normal operation of electronic devices, so as to ensure that the current output by the power circuit is constant at any time, thereby ensuring the normal and safe operation of electronic devices.

[0058] The sensor circuit is electrically connected to the copper foil 21 and is used to induce a voltage signal in the magnetic field and process the voltage signal to obtain an instantaneous signal. The instantaneous signal is a signal that directly reflects the current flowing through the copper foil 21 instantaneously.

[0059] In this way, the instantaneous magnetic field is generated by the instantaneous current flowing through the copper foil 21.

The missing value of instantaneous current can be obtained, which provides an accurate basis for compensation module 5 to output compensation current.

[0078] In one specific embodiment, the characteristic current is any one of the first instantaneous current, the second instantaneous current, the third instantaneous current, and the nth instantaneous current, so that the instantaneous current at any time can be obtained, and then the current missing value at any time can be calculated by a preset algorithm, and then the compensation current at any time can be obtained from the compensation module 5.
