[0062] Please see Figure 1 This application provides a charging circuit 100 for charging an energy storage component 300. The charging circuit 100 includes a voltage conversion circuit 10, a voltage detection circuit 20, a current detection circuit 30, and a control module 40.

[0063] Specifically, the energy storage component 300 can be a battery, supercapacitor, or other device used to store electrical energy. The voltage conversion circuit 10 is connected to both the charging interface 200 and the energy storage component 300. The voltage conversion circuit 10 can adjust the charging parameters of the charging interface 200 to the energy storage component 300 according to the pulse signal from the control module 40. The voltage detection circuit 20 is connected to both the charging interface 200 and the control module 40. The voltage detection circuit 20 is used to detect the input voltage of the charging interface 200 and transmit the voltage signal to the control module 40. The current detection circuit 30 is connected to both the charging interface 200 and the control module 40. The current detection circuit 30 is used to detect the input current of the charging interface 200 and transmit the current signal to the control module 40.

[0064] The control module 40 is connected to the voltage detection circuit 20, the current detection circuit 30, and the voltage conversion circuit 10. The control module 40 can receive signals from the voltage detection circuit 20 and the current detection circuit 30, and can update the maximum input current based on the input current detected by the current detection circuit 30. The control module 40 can also provide pulse signals to the voltage conversion circuit 10. During the charging process of the charging interface 200 to the energy storage component 300, if at least one of the input voltage and input current is abnormal, the control module 40 can determine the target charging parameters based on the maximum input current or the initial input voltage during the charging process. The control module 40 can update the maximum input current based on the input current detected by the current detection circuit 30. An abnormal input voltage may include a voltage drop exceeding a first threshold, and an abnormal input current may include an input current below a second threshold. The target charging parameters may include at least one of the target input current, target input voltage, or target input power.

[0065] In some embodiments, during the charging process of the charging interface 200 to the energy storage component 300, if the input voltage and / or input current are abnormal, before determining the target charging parameters based on the maximum input current or initial input voltage during the charging process, the control module 40 adjusts the pulse signal output to the voltage conversion circuit 10 when the initial input voltage is connected to the charging interface 200, until the charging interface 200 charges the energy storage component 300 with the rated input power.

[0066] Furthermore, during the charging process of the charging interface 200 to the energy storage component 300, the control module 40 can determine the target input current based on the initial voltage detected by the voltage detection circuit 20 during the charging process if the input voltage drop exceeds a first threshold. That is, the target input current is the input current at a second preset ratio where the current input voltage is the initial voltage. The second preset ratio can range from 90% to 95%. For example, the second preset ratio can be 95%, meaning the input current at 95% of the initial voltage is used as the target input current. During the charging process of the charging interface 200 to the energy storage component 300, if the input current falls below the second threshold, the control module 40 can determine the target input current based on the maximum input current detected by the current detection circuit 30 during the charging process. The target input current can be a first preset ratio of the maximum input current. The first preset ratio can range from 90% to 100%. For example, the first preset ratio can be 90%, meaning 90% of the maximum input current is used as the target input current.

[0067] It should be noted that the first threshold representing the input voltage drop and the second threshold representing the input current can be configured according to the actual situation, and are not limited here.

[0068] Furthermore, the pulse signal output to the voltage conversion circuit 10 is readjusted according to the target charging parameters until the charging interface 200 charges the energy storage component 300 with the target charging parameters. That is, starting from the output of the initial pulse signal, the control module 40 continuously increases the duty cycle of the pulse signal output to the voltage conversion circuit 10 until the charging interface 200 charges the energy storage component 300 with the target charging parameters.

[0069] The charging circuit 100 of this application comprises a voltage conversion circuit 10, a voltage detection circuit 20, a current detection circuit 30, and a control module 40. The voltage conversion circuit 10 controls the charging parameters of the charging interface 200 to the energy storage component 300 according to the pulse signal of the control module 40. The voltage detection circuit 20 detects the input voltage of the charging interface 200, and the current detection circuit 30 detects the input current of the charging interface 200. When at least one of the input voltage and input current is abnormal, the control module 40 determines the target charging parameters based on the maximum input current or the initial input voltage during the charging process. The control module 40 then outputs a pulse signal to the voltage conversion circuit 10 according to the target charging parameters, so that the charging interface 200 charges the energy storage component 300 with the target charging parameters. In this way, the problem that the charging circuit 100 cannot charge normally when the current charging power is less than the rated charging power value is solved, and the charging efficiency is improved.

[0070] Please see Figure 2 In some embodiments, the voltage conversion circuit 10 includes an inductor L1, a power transistor Q1, and a diode D1.

[0071] Specifically, the first end of inductor L1 is connected to charging interface 200, the first connection end of power transistor Q1 is connected to the second end of inductor L1, the second connection end is connected to ground terminal GND, the control terminal is connected to control module 40, the positive terminal of diode D1 is connected to the second end of inductor L1 and the first connection end of power transistor Q1, and the negative terminal of diode D1 is connected to energy storage component 300.

[0072] Furthermore, inductor L1 is an energy storage inductor. When the control module 40 outputs a pulse signal to control the power transistor Q1 to conduct, the charging interface 200 forms a circuit by connecting the ground terminal GND through inductor L1, allowing the charging interface 200 to charge inductor L1. When the control module 40 outputs a pulse signal to control the power transistor Q1 to deactivate, inductor L1 is connected to the energy storage component 300 through diode D1, allowing inductor L1 to charge the energy storage component 300.

[0073] Thus, the voltage conversion circuit 10 is configured with an inductor L1, a power transistor Q1, and a diode D1. The inductor L1 is connected to the charging interface 200, the power transistor Q1 is connected to the control module 40, and the diode D1 is connected to the energy storage component 300. The control module 40 controls the switching on and off of the power transistor Q1, thereby controlling the inductor L1 to charge the energy storage component 300, achieving the effect of voltage conversion.

[0074] Please see Figure 3 In some embodiments, the voltage detection circuit 20 includes a first detection resistor R1 and a second detection resistor R2.

[0075] Specifically, the first end of the first detection resistor R1 is connected to the charging interface 200, and the second end is connected to the control module 40. The first end of the second detection resistor R2 is connected to the second end of the first detection resistor R1, and the second end of the second detection resistor R2 is connected to the ground terminal GND. The first detection resistor R1 can be a current-limiting resistor, used to limit the current of the voltage detection circuit 20 to prevent the control module 40 from being damaged by excessive current. The second detection resistor R2 can be a voltage divider resistor. The control module 40 can obtain the voltage of the second detection resistor R2, and based on the ratio of the resistance values ​​of the first detection resistor R1 and the second detection resistor R2, the control module 40 can obtain the input voltage of the charging interface 200. For example, the resistance value of the first detection resistor R1 can be 100KΩ, and the resistance value of the second detection resistor R2 can be 20KΩ. If the control module 40 detects that the voltage of the second detection resistor R2 is 10V, the control module 40 can calculate that the input voltage of the charging interface 200 is 60V.

[0076] Thus, the voltage detection circuit 20 protects the control module 40 by setting a first detection resistor R1 and a second detection resistor R2. The first detection resistor R1 is used to limit the current of the voltage detection circuit 20. The control module 40 can obtain the input voltage provided by the charging interface 200 by detecting the voltage of the second detection resistor R2 and by calculation.

[0077] Please see Figure 4 In some embodiments, the current detection circuit 30 includes a third detection resistor R3 and a fourth detection resistor R4.

[0078] Specifically, the first end of the third sensing resistor R3 is connected to the charging interface 200, and the second end is connected to the ground terminal GND. The first end of the fourth sensing resistor R4 is connected to the second end of the third sensing resistor R3 and the ground terminal GND, and the second end is connected to the control module 40. The current from the charging interface 200 flows to the ground terminal GND through the third sensing resistor R3. The control module 40 obtains the input current provided by the charging interface 200 by connecting to the second end of the third sensing resistor R3 through the fourth sensing resistor R4. The fourth sensing resistor R4 is used to limit the current and protect the control module 40. The resistance of the third sensing resistor R3 is relatively small, while the resistance of the fourth sensing resistor R4 is relatively large; for example, the resistance of the third sensing resistor R3 can be 50 milliohms, and the resistance of the fourth sensing resistor R4 can be 1 kilohm.

[0079] Thus, the current detection circuit 30 is connected to the ground terminal GND by setting the third detection resistor R3, and the control module 40 is connected to the third detection resistor R3 and the ground terminal GND by the fourth detection resistor R4, thereby detecting the input current. The fourth detection resistor R4 can limit the current protection control module 40.

[0080] Please see Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, the charging circuit 100 further includes an overvoltage protection circuit 50.

[0081] Specifically, the overvoltage protection circuit 50 is connected to the voltage conversion circuit 10 and the control module 40 respectively. The overvoltage protection circuit 50 is used to shut down the voltage conversion circuit 10 when the output voltage of the voltage conversion circuit 10 exceeds a preset threshold, thereby stopping the energy storage component 300 from charging. The overvoltage protection circuit 50 includes a Zener diode D2, a first voltage divider resistor R5, a second voltage divider resistor R6, and a switching transistor Q2. The cathode of the Zener diode D2 is connected to the voltage conversion circuit 10. The first terminal of the first voltage divider resistor R5 is connected to the anode of the Zener diode D2, and the second terminal is connected to the ground terminal GND. The first terminal of the second voltage divider resistor R6 is connected to the anode of the Zener diode D2. The first terminal of the switching transistor Q2 is connected to the control module 40, the second terminal is connected to the ground terminal GND, and the control terminal is connected to the second terminal of the second voltage divider resistor R6.

[0082] Furthermore, when the output voltage of the voltage conversion circuit 10 is lower than the preset threshold, the second voltage divider resistor R6 is at a low level, that is, the control terminal of the switching transistor Q2 is at a low level, the switching transistor Q2 is off, and the control module 40 cannot control the voltage conversion circuit 10 to shut down. When the input voltage of the voltage conversion circuit 10 is greater than the preset threshold, the second voltage divider resistor R6 is at a high level, that is, the control terminal of the switching transistor Q2 is at a high level, the switching transistor Q2 is on, the control module 40 forms a loop with the ground terminal GND to generate a control signal, and the control module 40 can control the voltage conversion circuit 10 to shut down, so that the energy storage component 300 stops charging.

[0083] Thus, by setting up an overvoltage protection circuit 50, the charging circuit 100 controls the voltage conversion circuit 10 to shut down and stop charging the energy storage component 300 when the output voltage of the voltage conversion circuit 10 exceeds a preset threshold. This avoids damage to the energy storage component 300 caused by excessive output voltage of the voltage conversion circuit 10 and improves the safety of the charging circuit 100.

[0084] Please see Figure 5 In some embodiments, the charging circuit 100 further includes an energy storage component protection circuit 60 and a power supply circuit 70.

[0085] Specifically, the energy storage component protection circuit 60 is connected in series between the voltage conversion circuit 10 and the energy storage component 300, and is used to protect the energy storage component 300. The power supply circuit 70 is connected to the energy storage component protection circuit 60 and the control module 40 respectively, and is used to provide power supply voltage to the control module 40 according to the current of the energy storage component protection circuit 60.

[0086] Furthermore, the energy storage component protection circuit 60 can detect the stored energy of the energy storage component 300. In the event of overcharging or over-discharging of the energy storage component 300, the energy storage component protection circuit 60 can disconnect the voltage conversion circuit 10 from the energy storage component 300, thereby protecting the energy storage component 300.

[0087] Thus, by setting up an energy storage component protection circuit 60 and a power supply circuit 70, the charging circuit 100 can prevent the energy storage component 300 from overcharging or over-discharging by controlling the energy storage component protection circuit 60, thereby protecting the energy storage component 300 and extending its service life. The power supply circuit 70 can provide power to the control module 40, enabling the control module 40 to generate pulse signals to control the charging circuit 100.

[0088] Please see Figure 5 In some embodiments, the charging circuit 100 further includes a button control circuit 80.

[0089] Specifically, the button control circuit 80 is connected to both the energy storage component protection circuit 60 and the control module 40. The button control circuit 80 can be a manual button, and the control module 40 can be reset by manually pressing or toggling the button control circuit 80. The energy storage component protection circuit 60 can supply power to the button control circuit 80.

[0090] Thus, by setting up a button control circuit 80, which is connected to the energy storage component protection circuit 60 and the control module 40, the energy storage component protection circuit 60 can supply power to the button control circuit 80, and the control module 40 can be reset by controlling the button control circuit 80.

[0091] Please see Figure 7 In some embodiments, the power management system 1000 includes a charging circuit 100.

[0092] The power management system 1000 of this application includes a charging circuit 100. The charging circuit 100 is configured with a voltage conversion circuit 10, a voltage detection circuit 20, a current detection circuit 30, and a control module 40. The voltage conversion circuit 10 controls the charging parameters of the charging interface 200 to the energy storage component 300 according to the pulse signal of the control module 40. The voltage detection circuit 20 detects the input voltage of the charging interface 200, and the current detection circuit 30 detects the input current of the charging interface 200. When at least one of the input voltage and input current is abnormal, the control module 40 determines the target charging parameters according to the maximum input current or the initial input voltage during the charging process. Thus, the control module 40 outputs a pulse signal to the voltage conversion circuit 10 according to the target charging parameters, so that the charging interface 200 charges the energy storage component 300 with the target charging parameters. In this way, the problem of not being able to charge normally when the charging power is less than the rated charging power value is solved, and the charging efficiency is improved.
