Some of the above technologies are relatively expensive, some have poor accuracy and linearity, some devices are difficult to purchase, and some require additional isolated power supplies, with complex circuits that cannot meet application scenarios with high performance and cost requirements. Summary of the invention

[0034] A control method for a voltage isolation sampling circuit, including but not limited to the following steps:

[0036] S102, when the positive half cycle of the AC voltage is applied to the secondary coil and the current reaches a certain intensity, the transformer unit gradually exits the saturation state, runs along the hysteresis loop to the other end, and enters the saturation state again;

[0037] S103, when the secondary winding AC voltage is in the negative half cycle, the transformer unit exits the saturation state along the hysteresis loop, runs to the other end along the hysteresis loop, and enters the saturation state again;

[0038] S104, when the transformer unit exits the saturation state, a signal can be transmitted, the signal transmission of the primary coil is fed back to the secondary coil, and a current is generated in the sampling resistor, and the sampling signal processing module samples the signal value during this period and calculates the value of the primary DC voltage;

[0039] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 4 The hysteresis loop when the primary coil voltage is 0 when AC power is applied to the secondary coil.

[0040] Reference Figure 5 , Figure 5 The current waveform when the primary coil voltage is 0 when AC power is applied to the secondary coil.

[0042] Reference Figure 7 , Figure 7 Current waveform when AC power is applied to the secondary coil and the primary coil voltage is DC.

[0043] It is worth noting that the hysteresis loop of the transformer unit shifts along the H axis with the magnitude of the DC voltage. H = N*I / L (N-number of turns of the iron core transformer, I-current, L-magnetic path length, H-magnetic field strength). The number of turns of the iron core transformer and the magnetic path length remain unchanged. When the current changes, the hysteresis loop shifts along the magnetic field strength.

[0044] The simulation results of the voltage isolation sampling circuit of this scheme are as follows (the amplification factor K value is calibrated with 120V):

[0045] Vdc=60V,Vout=59.98V

[0046] Vdc=120V,Vout=120V

[0047] Vdc=180V,Vout=180.07V

[0048] Vdc=240V,Vout=240.17V

[0049] Vdc=300V,Vout=300.32V

[0050] Vdc=360V,Vout=360.51V

[0051] It can be seen from the above simulation results that the accuracy and linearity of the voltage isolation sampling circuit of this scheme are good, and the maximum deviation is +0.14%.

[0052] The working principle of a voltage isolation sampling circuit of the present invention is:

[0053] When there is no AC signal in the secondary coil of the iron core transformer, a DC voltage is applied to the primary coil of the iron core transformer until the transformer is saturated, and an AC voltage is applied to the secondary coil of the iron core transformer. When the current reaches a certain level, the iron core transformer exits the saturation state, runs along the hysteresis loop to the other end, and enters the saturation state again. When the iron core transformer exits the saturation state, the signal can be transmitted, and the signal of the primary coil of the iron core transformer is fed back to the secondary coil of the iron core transformer, and a current is generated on the sampling resistor. The sampling signal processing module samples the signal value during this period, and calculates the value of the primary DC voltage of the iron core transformer based on the sampled value.
