Description

Technical Field

[0002] Many electronic devices on the market require heating control. This is achieved by applying voltage across a heat-generating load and controlling the duty cycle of that voltage. A typical application of electronic heaters is the mosquito repellent liquid heater. The heater uses battery voltage applied to the heating wire, generating heat that is applied to a carbon rod. The heated carbon rod vaporizes the mosquito repellent liquid, thus repelling mosquitoes. To ensure this effect, the heating wire's output power must be constant. The output power is the product of the voltage across the heating wire and the corresponding current flowing through it. However, in practical applications, the resistance of the heating wire changes with temperature during heating, causing the output power to fluctuate and making it impossible to guarantee a constant power output.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of the present invention described and shown in the accompanying drawings can be arranged and designed in various different configurations. The present invention can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to make the disclosure of the present invention more thorough and complete. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0052] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0053] In the description of this invention, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "set up," "connected," and "electrically connected" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or they can refer to the internal connection of two elements. It should be noted that when one element is considered to be "connected" to another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intervening element present.

[0054] The following detailed description of some embodiments of the present invention is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.

[0055] The terminology involved in this invention is explained as follows:

[0056] VRH: Load voltage signal applied across the load terminals.

[0057] IRH: Current flowing through the load.

[0058] Vout: The first voltage signal that represents the actual output power of the load.

[0059] The inventors have discovered that many electronic devices on the market require heating control. This is achieved by applying voltage across a heating load and controlling the duty cycle of that voltage. Taking a mosquito repellent liquid heater as an example, the heater applies a power supply voltage to the heating wire, generating heating power that is applied to a carbon rod. The heated carbon rod vaporizes the mosquito repellent liquid, thus repelling mosquitoes. To ensure this effect, the heating wire's output power must be kept constant. The output power is the product of the voltage across the heating wire and the corresponding current flowing through it. However, in practical applications, the resistance of the heating wire changes with temperature during heating, causing the output power to fluctuate and making it impossible to guarantee a constant power output.

[0060] The inventors have discovered that constant power output can be achieved using the root mean square voltage method, as shown in the following two expressions of the power formula:

[0061]

[0062] Power = Duty * I 2 *R

[0063] However, constant power output achieved based on RMS voltage essentially relies on voltage detection and feedback control of the output duty cycle (Duty) to achieve constant power output. However, during the entire loop control process, the load resistance is not detected or controlled. Therefore, when the load resistance changes, the output power duty cycle remains unchanged, and the achieved constant power output is no longer constant. Thus, the key to maintaining constant power output lies in how to feedback control the output duty cycle (Duty) when the resistance changes.

[0064] In view of this, embodiments of the present invention provide a constant output power control circuit and an electronic device, thereby solving the problem that the electronic device cannot maintain a constant power output when the load resistance changes.

[0065] Specifically:

[0066] A new constant output power control circuit is provided.

[0067] This new constant output power control circuit detects the load voltage signal applied to the load and outputs a first voltage signal corresponding to the actual output power of the load. Then, it uses a pulse width modulation circuit to adjust the output pulse width modulation signal according to the first voltage signal to achieve constant power output.

[0068] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of an electronic device 1 according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention is shown. Figure 1 As shown, the electronic device 1 includes a load 10, a power supply 20, and a constant output power control circuit 30. The power supply 20 is electrically connected to the load 10 to supply power to it. The constant output power control circuit 30 is electrically connected to both the load 10 and the power supply 20, and is used to adjust the output pulse width modulation signal according to the voltage corresponding to the actual output power of the load 10 to control the load to output a constant power 10. Therefore, when the resistance of the load 10 changes, the actual output power changes accordingly. The actual output power is represented by voltage, thereby adjusting the output pulse width modulation signal to dynamically adjust the time for applying voltage to the load 10, controlling the load to output a constant power.

Figure 2 As shown, the constant output power control circuit 30 includes a reference circuit 31, a power detection circuit 32, and a pulse width modulation circuit 33. The power detection circuit 32 includes a conversion unit 320 and a first integrator module OP1.

[0071] In this embodiment, the reference circuit 31 is used to output a reference voltage signal VBG. The conversion unit 320 is electrically connected to the reference circuit 31 and the load 10. The reference voltage signal and the load voltage signal VRH of the load 10 are input to the conversion unit 320. The conversion unit 320 converts the load voltage VRH into a time quantity based on the reference voltage signal VNG. The first integrator module OP1 has its input terminal electrically connected to the mirror current source Ir through a first resistor R1, and its control terminal electrically connected to the conversion unit. The mirror current source Ir is also grounded through a second resistor R2. The current output by the mirror current source Ir is the current IRH flowing through the load 10. The current output by the mirror current source Ir converts the current IRH into a voltage signal IRH*R2 through the second resistor R2, i.e., the voltage across the second resistor R2 is IRH*R2. The first integrator module OP1 integrates the voltage signal IRH*R2 and, under the control of the time quantity, outputs a first voltage signal Vout corresponding to the actual output power of the load 10.

[0072] The pulse width modulation circuit 33 is electrically connected to the first integrator module OP1 and is used to adjust the output pulse width modulation signal according to the first voltage signal Vout. The actual output power of the load 10 is represented by the first voltage signal Vout. The pulse width modulation circuit outputs the pulse width modulation signal by adjusting the first voltage signal Vout. In this embodiment, the actual output power of the load 10 is used as feedback to dynamically adjust the pulse width modulation signal, thereby achieving a constant power output of the load 10.

[0073] In one embodiment of the present invention, combined with Figure 3 , Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the circuit structure of a conversion unit according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown.

The output terminal of the first comparator module CP1 outputs the time quantity T.

The first voltage signal output by the output terminal of the first integrator module OP1 is:

[0090] The ratio of the integration time Tvout of the third integrator module OP3 to the integration time TVBG of the fourth integrator module OP4 is:

[0091]
