[0022] Under the condition of no light-emitting device, that is, under the condition of no light signal input, the photoelectric coupler cannot be tested.

[0023] In the embodiment of the present application, the control unit generates and outputs a control signal, and the test current generating unit generates a corresponding test current according to the received control signal, and tests the photoelectric coupler to be tested by the test current. The waveform and / or current amplitude of the test current are indicated by the control signal, simulating the current generated in the working process of the photodetector, which can effectively solve the problem of being unable to test without light signal input, and the circuit structure is simple.

[0024] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present application more obvious and easy to understand, the specific embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

[0025] The embodiment of the present application provides a photoelectric coupler test system for testing a photoelectric coupler. Referring to Figure 1 , a partial circuit structure schematic diagram of a photoelectric coupler in an embodiment of the present application is given. The above-mentioned partial circuit structure refers to Figure 1 The circuit structure shown is only a part of the circuit structure of the photoelectric coupler.

[0026] In some embodiments, the opto-coupler can include a differential trans-impedance amplification unit, a first photodiode PD-D, and a second photodiode PD-L, wherein:

[0027] The positive electrode of the first photodiode PD-D is coupled to the first input terminal of the differential trans-impedance amplifier, and the negative electrode of the first photodiode PD-D is coupled to the first power supply voltage VDD_L.

[0028] The positive electrode of the second photodiode PD-L is coupled to the first input terminal of the differential trans-impedance amplifier, and the negative electrode of the second photodiode PD-L is coupled to the first power supply voltage VDD_L.

[0029] The positive electrode of the first photodiode PD-D is coupled to the first input terminal of the differential trans-impedance amplifier, and the negative electrode of the first photodiode PD-D is coupled to the first power supply voltage VDD_L.

[0030] In some embodiments, when the opto-coupler is in use, if the second photodiode PD-L is irradiated by the light emitted by the light-emitting device (such as an infrared LED), the second current generated by the second photodiode PD-L includes a photo current and a second dark current.

[0031] The first photodiode PD-D is a light-receiving photodiode, which cannot receive the light emitted by the light-emitting device, and thus cannot generate a photo current. Therefore, the current generated by the first photodiode PD-D is a first dark current.

[0032] In some embodiments, the first photodiode PD-D can be sealed in a light-tight structure. For example, the top of the first photodiode PD-D can be covered with thick aluminum. It can be understood that the specific arrangement of the first photodiode PD-D is not limited to the above-mentioned example of "covered with thick aluminum on the top". Other arrangements of the first photodiode PD-D can also exist, which are not described here.

[0033] In some embodiments, when the opto-coupler is in use, the first output terminal of the differential trans-impedance amplification unit outputs a first dark current, and the second output terminal outputs a second dark current and a photo current. The two output terminals of the differential trans-impedance amplification unit can be coupled to the two input terminals of a differential amplifier, and the first dark current can be used to eliminate the second dark current in the second current through the differential amplifier. The specific working principle of the opto-coupler can be known by those skilled in the art according to the prior art, and the specific working principle of the opto-coupler is not described here.

[0034] In a specific implementation, when testing the optocoupler, the light emitting device is in an off state. To achieve the testing of the optocoupler, a test current (such as Figure 1 TIA Test) is input to the second input end of the differential transimpedance amplification unit to simulate the photoelectric current signal generated by the second photoelectric diode PD-L when in an on state.

[0035] In a specific implementation, the differential transimpedance operational amplification unit can be composed of resistors, NPN triodes, current sources, capacitors, and the like.

[0036] Specifically, as shown in Figure 1 , the differential transimpedance operational amplification unit can include resistors R1, R2, R3, R4, triodes N1, N2, N3, N4, N5, N6, current sources I1, I2, I3, I4, and the like. The differential transimpedance operational amplification unit can also include two gain resistors R5 and R6. In addition, the differential transimpedance operational amplification unit also includes capacitors C1 and C2, which play a compensating role for loop stability.

[0037] Specifically, the circuit structure of each component in the differential transimpedance operational amplification unit can refer to Figure 1 .

[0038] Those skilled in the art can understand that the circuit structure of the transimpedance operational amplification unit shown in Figure 1 is only one specific implementation, which is used as an exemplary description in the embodiments of the present application. In actual applications, there can also be transimpedance operational amplification units with other circuit structures. The optocoupler in the embodiments of the present application can also use transimpedance operational amplification units with other circuit structures.

[0039] That is, the specific circuit structure of the transimpedance operational amplification unit does not affect the protection of the embodiments of the present application.

[0040] In the embodiments of the present application, the optocoupler testing system can include a control unit 11 and a test current generation unit 12. Referring to Figure 2 , a structure diagram of an optocoupler testing system in the embodiments of the present application is given. The following is described in combination with Figure 1 and Figure 2 .

[0041] In a specific implementation, the control unit 11 can be adapted to output a control signal to the test current generation unit 12;

[0042] The test current generation unit 12 is adapted to receive control signals, generate test currents corresponding to the control signals, and output them to the optocoupler under test.

[0043] In this embodiment of the invention, the waveform of the test current, or the amplitude of the test current, or both the waveform and the amplitude of the test current can be controlled by a control signal.

[0044] In a specific implementation, the control signal may include an enable signal and an amplitude adjustment signal, which can be two independent signals. Correspondingly, the test current generation unit 12 may include two input ports: an amplitude input port and an enable port, wherein the amplitude input port can input the amplitude adjustment signal, and the enable port can input the enable signal. The current amplitude of the test current can be determined by the amplitude adjustment signal.

[0045] Specifically, the optocoupler testing system may include a variable resistor. The first terminal of the variable resistor can be coupled to the amplitude input port of the test current generation unit 12, the second terminal of the variable resistor is grounded, and the control terminal of the variable resistor receives an amplitude adjustment signal. The resistance value of the variable resistor is adjusted using the amplitude adjustment signal, thereby adjusting the amplitude of the test current.

[0046] In practice, the variable resistor can be a sliding rheostat or other device capable of changing its resistance value.

[0047] The optocoupler testing system may also include an ammeter A. Ammeter A displays the amplitude of the test current corresponding to the adjustment of the variable resistor's resistance value.

[0048] In a specific implementation, the optocoupler testing system may also include a waveform adjustment unit 13. The first terminal of the waveform adjustment unit 13 is coupled to the enable port of the test current generation unit 12, outputting a waveform adjustment signal; the second terminal of the waveform adjustment unit 13 is grounded. The waveform of the test current is related to the waveform adjustment signal.

[0049] The waveform adjustment signal can be a DC signal, and correspondingly, the test current can be a DC current, meaning the waveform of the test current is a DC waveform. Alternatively, the waveform adjustment signal can be a pulse signal, and correspondingly, the test current can be a pulse current, meaning the waveform of the test current is a pulse waveform.

[0050] In practice, when the enable signal is low, the test current generation unit 12 can be turned off and enter a low-power mode with almost no static current consumption.

[0051] The working principle of the optocoupler testing system is explained below.

[0052] During testing, the control unit 11 can be coupled to the test current generation unit 12 via two test pads (PADs): Test PAD1 and Test PAD2. Test PAD1 is externally connected to a sliding rheostat. The sliding rheostat is connected in series with ammeter A, thus enabling the acquisition of the desired current amplitude.

[0053] When Test PAD2 is not in test mode, it is at a low level (that is, the enable signal is at a low level or there is no enable signal), which allows the test current generation unit 12 to be turned off and enter a low power mode with almost no static current consumption.

[0054] When Test PAD2 is at a high level (i.e., the enable signal is high), the test current generation unit 12 is enabled. The amplitude of the test current is adjusted by regulating the sliding rheostat through the amplitude adjustment signal.

[0055] When the signal output by the waveform adjustment unit 13 is a DC signal and the Test PAD2 is at a high level (i.e., the power signal is at a high level), the amplitude of the test current is adjusted by adjusting the resistance of the sliding rheostat, thereby realizing the testing of the internal operational characteristics of the optocoupler, including the input current threshold and the input current hysteresis characteristics.

[0056] When the signal output by the waveform adjustment unit 13 is a pulse signal, the enable signal is modulated into a pulse signal. Correspondingly, the test current generated by the test current generation unit 12 is a pulse signal of the same frequency, which can be used to test and verify the dynamic characteristics of the optocoupler, including the input and output response time, output rise time (tr), and output fall time (tf).

[0057] In specific implementation, refer to Figure 3 The present invention provides a schematic diagram of the circuit structure of a test current generation unit 12 in an embodiment of the present invention.

[0058] Figure 3 In the test current generation unit 12, the first follower FO1, the first inverter INV1, the seventh resistor R7, the eighth resistor R8, and MOS transistors M1 to M11, wherein MOS transistors M1 to M6 are PMOS transistors and MOS transistors M7 to M11 are NMOS transistors.

[0059] Specifically, the connection relationships between the various components can be referred to accordingly. Figure 3 .

[0060] In summary, by generating and outputting control signals through the control unit, the test current generation unit 12 generates corresponding test currents based on the received control signals, and the optocoupler under test is tested using these test currents. By indicating the waveform and / or amplitude of the test current through the control signals, the current generated during the operation of the photodetector is simulated, effectively solving the problem of being unable to test without an optical signal input. Furthermore, the circuit structure is simple.

[0061] In practical implementation, the optocoupler testing system can also test the linear voltage regulator inside the optocoupler to test whether the linear voltage regulator inside the optocoupler can output the corresponding voltage value normally.

[0062] In practical applications, it is known that the linear voltage regulator inside the optocoupler can output a first power supply voltage and a second power supply voltage, which are not equal. Specifically, the first power supply voltage can be the voltage difference relative to ground, typically represented by VDD_L; the second power supply voltage can be the voltage difference relative to the power supply voltage supplying the optocoupler, typically represented by VDD_H.

[0063] In practical implementation, the optocoupler testing system can test both the first power supply voltage and the second power supply voltage.

[0064] Reference Figure 4 A circuit diagram of a power supply test unit according to an embodiment of the present invention is provided. The power supply test unit includes a second follower FO2, a second inverter INV2, a NAND gate, an OR gate, a level shifter 40, a first switching unit, and a second switching unit, wherein:

[0065] The input terminal of the second follower FO2 can be connected to an enable signal, and the output terminal of the second follower FO2 can be coupled to the first input terminal of the NAND gate circuit.

[0066] The input terminal of the second inverter INV2 can be used to input an enable signal, and the output terminal of the second inverter INV2 can be coupled to the first input terminal of the OR gate circuit.

[0067] The first input terminal of the NAND gate circuit receives an enable signal, the second input terminal of the NAND gate circuit receives a power test signal, and the output terminal of the NAND gate circuit outputs the first test enable signal VDD_L_EN.

[0068] An enable signal is input to the first input terminal of the OR gate circuit, a power supply test signal is input to the second input terminal of the OR gate circuit, and the output terminal of the OR gate circuit is coupled to the input terminal of the level shifting circuit 40.

[0069] The output terminal of the level shifting circuit 40 outputs a second test enable signal VDD_H_EN; the level shifting circuit 40 performs level shifting on the signal output terminal of the OR gate circuit OR.

[0070] The first terminal of the first switching unit is input to the first power supply voltage VDD_L, the control terminal of the first switching unit is input to the first test enable signal VDD_L_EN, and the second terminal of the first switching unit is coupled to the output terminal of the power supply test unit.

[0071] The first terminal of the second switching unit receives the second power supply voltage VDD_H, the control terminal of the second switching unit receives the second test enable signal VDD_H_EN, and the second terminal of the second switching unit is coupled to the output terminal of the power supply test unit.

[0072] In a specific implementation, the second follower FO2, the second inverter INV2, the NAND gate, and the OR gate can be powered by the first power supply voltage.

[0073] In practical implementation, a test PAD for inputting an enable signal can be set up in the optocoupler test system. This test PAD is coupled to the input terminal of the second follower FO2 and the input terminal of the second inverter INV2, such as... Figure 4 Test PAD3 in the middle.

[0074] In the optocoupler testing system, another test PAD is set up to input the power supply test signal. This test PAD can be coupled to both the second input of an OR gate and the second input of a NAND gate, such as... Figure 4 V_Test PAD4 in the example.

[0075] The NAND gate outputs a first test enable signal VDD_L_EN, and the level shifter 40 outputs a second test enable signal VDD_H_EN. The level shifter 40 raises the output voltage of the OR gate from the first power supply voltage VDD_L to the second power supply voltage VDD_H.

[0076] The first switching unit can be a PMOS transistor MP1, wherein: the source of the PMOS transistor MP1 is input to the first power supply voltage VDD_L, the control terminal of the PMOS transistor MP1 can input the first test enable signal VDD_L_EN, and the drain of the PMOS transistor MP1 is coupled to the output terminal of the power supply test unit.

[0077] The second switching unit can also be a PMOS transistor MP2, wherein: the source of the PMOS transistor MP2 is input to the second power supply voltage VDD_H, the control terminal of the PMOS transistor MP2 can input the second test enable signal VDD_H_EN, and the drain of the PMOS transistor MP2 is coupled to the output terminal of the power supply test unit.

[0078] In practical implementation, the optocoupler test unit can also be equipped with a test PAD to receive the test signal output from the power supply test unit. Specifically, this PAD can be... Figure 4 The V_Test PAD shown.

[0079] In practical applications, the voltage on V_Test PAD will change under the combined effect of the enable signal and the power supply test signal. If the linear regulated source of the optocoupler is working normally, the voltage on V_Test PAD will switch between the first power supply voltage and the second power supply voltage.

[0080] In practice, a current-limiting resistor can be set between the power supply test unit and the V_Test PAD. The current-limiting resistor mainly serves to protect the port of the V_Test PAD.

[0081] The working principle of the power supply test unit provided in the above embodiments of the present invention will be explained below.

[0082] When Test PAD3 is floating or when a low-level signal is input to Test PAD3 (i.e., the enable signal is low), the power supply test unit's test function is disabled. Typically, a pull-down resistor can be added between Test PAD3 and ground to ensure a low-level signal is input to Test PAD3 by default. When a high-level signal is input to Test PAD3 (i.e., the enable signal is high), the power supply test unit's test function is enabled.

[0083] When both Test PAD3 and Test PAD4 input a high-level signal (i.e., the power supply test signal is high), the first test enable signal VDD_L_EN is low, and the second test enable signal VDD_H_EN is high. At this time, PMOS transistor M1 is turned on, and the signal output on V_Test PAD is the first power supply voltage VDD_L. Using instruments such as a voltmeter, measure whether the voltage value of the first power supply voltage VDD_L is equal to the first theoretical voltage value (e.g., 5V). If the measured voltage value of the first power supply voltage VDD_L differs significantly from the first theoretical voltage value, then the linear regulator of the optocoupler is faulty.

[0084] When a high-level signal is input to Test PAD3 and a low-level signal is input to Test PAD4 (i.e., the power supply test signal is low), the first test enable signal VDD_L_EN is high, and the second test enable signal VDD_H_EN is low. At this time, PMOS transistor M2 is turned on, and the signal output on V_Test PAD is the second power supply voltage VDD_D. Using instruments such as a voltmeter, measure whether the voltage value of the second power supply voltage VDD_D is equal to the second theoretical voltage value (e.g., 12V). If the measured voltage value of the second power supply voltage VDD_D differs significantly from the second theoretical voltage value, then the linear regulator of the optocoupler is faulty.

[0085] It is understood that the specific values ​​of the first theoretical voltage and the second theoretical voltage mentioned above are only illustrative examples. For different optocouplers, the corresponding first theoretical voltage and second theoretical voltage values ​​can be other values.

[0086] Therefore, the power supply test unit provided in the above embodiments of the present invention can be used to test the linear voltage regulator inside the optocoupler.

[0087] While the present invention has been disclosed above, it is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can make various modifications and alterations without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention; therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be determined by the scope defined in the claims.
