Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of carbon dioxide sensor technology, specifically to a high-precision and high-resolution DNIR carbon dioxide sensor. Background Technology

[0002] A non-dispersive (DNIR) carbon dioxide sensor, hereinafter referred to as "DNIR_CO2", is used to detect the concentration of carbon dioxide gas in the air of people's working or living environments, or the carbon dioxide content in the exhaled breath of patients undergoing rehabilitation. The acquired data is transmitted to a central processing unit for analysis, allowing control centers or medical personnel to take appropriate action. It can be divided into several types based on differences in the sensing element and structure. This invention only relates to improvements in the circuitry of a single-wavelength, single-beam DNIR_CO2 sensor. Therefore, the following description focuses only on the circuitry of a single-wavelength, single-beam DNIR_CO2 sensor.

[0003] Figure 1 This is a schematic block diagram illustrating the basic principle of existing single-wavelength, single-beam DNIR_CO2 technology. Its basic principle utilizes the selective absorption of infrared radiation at a specific wavelength (4.26µm) by carbon dioxide gas. The concentration of carbon dioxide is determined by the intensity of the infrared energy received by the infrared-sensitive element (pyroelectric). The lower the carbon dioxide concentration, the larger the amplitude of the output signal, and vice versa. The output amplitude is maximum when the carbon dioxide concentration is zero. Because this pyroelectric sensor is highly sensitive to temperature, if a DC signal is used to directly drive the light source, the received signal, after amplification, will easily drift outside the amplifier's linear region due to temperature drift, resulting in an inaccurate signal. Furthermore, since this temperature drift frequency is very low, typically less than 1Hz, a 5V pulse with a 30ms period and a 1 / 4 duty cycle is used to drive the light source. Figure 2This is a block diagram and partial circuit diagram of the signal processing part related to this invention, using a foreign single-wavelength, single-beam DNIR_CO2. It uses +5V, GND, and -5V to power the active bandpass filter circuit. The pyroelectric inductor output signal, after being processed by the first stage of DC blocking, filtering, and amplification, and then by the second stage of active bandpass filtering and amplification, becomes a pulsating sine wave signal with a period of 30ms and a zero-crossing point of 2.048V, almost unaffected by temperature drift. Because the subsequent stage uses a single-ended input 16-bit A / D sampling circuit to directly sample this sine wave signal, the output is not a pure sine wave signal with a zero-crossing point of 0V. To determine the signal strength, the peak values ​​of the positive and negative half-cycles of the sine wave must be sampled, but this type of A / D chip cannot sample negative voltage signals. Therefore, both the positive and negative peak values ​​of the sine wave must be adjusted to above 0V. The obtained data is then sent to the MCU control unit (according to the Lambert-Beer law algorithm) for processing, and then transmitted to the host computer via the communication port. Other auxiliary circuits (such as temperature control circuits, light source drivers, MCUs, etc.) are not included in the scope of this invention and will not be described here.

[0004] The analysis of the existing circuit technology above reveals three reasons for its low resolution of carbon dioxide concentration.

[0005] 1. With a constant power supply of ±5V, when the carbon dioxide concentration is zero (the minimum, equivalent to 0 calibration), infrared light is not absorbed at all, and the pyroelectric sensor receives the strongest signal. Therefore, its output signal amplitude is also the largest. At this point, the signal is transmitted to the active bandpass filter and amplifier circuit. The amplifier gain is adjusted to maximize the output amplitude without entering the nonlinear region. This is the limit of signal gain in existing technology. If carbon dioxide gas of a certain concentration and pressure is introduced into the gas chamber, some infrared light is absorbed, and the pyroelectric sensor's output signal weakens accordingly. If the carbon dioxide concentration increases, the output signal amplitude decreases, and vice versa, but it will not exceed the amplitude of zero-concentration gas. Therefore, the gain of the bandpass filter is limited by the zero-concentration gas concentration and cannot be further increased.

[0006] Second, because the zero-crossing point of the bandpass filter output signal in the existing technology is not at 0V but at 2.048V, the amplification range of the amplifier can only be within the range of 0V to +5V, rather than the entire range of -5V to +5V. Its amplification range is only half of the power supply range.

[0007] Third, in existing technologies, a single-ended input 16-bit A / D sampling chip is used. Firstly, the single-ended input cannot suppress common-mode interference from the power supply, resulting in a decrease in sampling resolution. Secondly, the effective resolution of the 16-bit A / D chip is only 13-14 bits, which is also a reason for the low resolution.

[0008] Based on this, the present invention designs a high-precision and high-resolution DNIR carbon dioxide sensor to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

The in-phase signal is input to the -AIN terminal of the differential input 24-bit A / D sampling circuit M2, and the inverted signal is input to the +AIN terminal of the differential input 24-bit A / D sampling circuit M2.

[0018] The differential input 24-bit A / D sampling circuit M2 converts the received signal into a digital signal and communicates the digital signal with the data processor through the SPI1 port. The data processor performs calculations according to the Beer-Lambert theorem and converts the signal into a digital quantity that corresponds exactly to the concentration of the carbon dioxide sensor, which is then transmitted to the host computer through the communication port.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0047] like Figure 2 The diagram shows the working principle circuit of an existing single-wavelength, single-beam DNIR carbon dioxide sensor, including a pyroelectric sensor, a DC blocking first-stage amplification and integration circuit, a second-stage amplification and bandpass filter circuit, a single-ended input 16-bit A / D sampling circuit, and a data processor and output circuit. This is to address the shortcomings of existing single-wavelength, single-beam DNIR carbon dioxide sensors in terms of low resolution and accuracy in detecting carbon dioxide concentration.

[0048] See Figure 2-3This invention provides a technical solution: a high-precision and high-resolution DNIR carbon dioxide sensor, comprising a pyroelectric sensor, a DC-blocking first-stage amplification and integration circuit, a second-stage amplification and bandpass filter circuit M1, a differential input 24-bit A / D sampling circuit M2, a data processor, and a host computer. The pyroelectric sensor collects the carbon dioxide concentration voltage signal and inputs the collected signal to the DC-blocking first-stage amplification and integration circuit. The DC-blocking first-stage amplification and integration circuit outputs a distorted pulse signal, which is then input to the second-stage amplification and bandpass filter circuit M1 (the circuit of the second-stage amplification and bandpass filter circuit M1 is the same as the existing second-stage amplification and bandpass filter circuit, except that the connection of pin 3 to the 2.048V reference voltage is modified to a direct connection to AGND). Figure 2 and Figure 3As can be seen from the comparison of the dashed boxes, the sine wave output range has been improved from approximately 0 to 3.5V (the linear region of the 5V power supply op-amp is <3.5V) to -3.5V to +3.5V. The gain can be increased to twice the previous value. Simultaneously, the secondary amplification bandpass filter circuit M1 converts the distorted pulse signal into a pure AC sine wave signal. Four new functional modules are added between the secondary amplification bandpass filter circuit M1 and the differential input 24-bit A / D sampling circuit M2: a pure AC sine wave signal to DC signal conversion circuit MZ1, a temperature-compensated DC signal generation circuit MZ2, a differential amplifier circuit MZ3, and a fully differential output amplifier circuit MZ4. Specifically, the pure AC sine wave signal to DC signal conversion circuit MZ1 receives the pure AC sine wave signal output from the secondary amplification bandpass filter circuit M1 and converts it into a DC signal, which is input to the -IN terminal of the differential amplifier circuit MZ3. The temperature-compensated DC signal generation circuit MZ2 generates a DC signal, which is also input to the +IN terminal of the differential amplifier circuit MZ3. The differential amplifier circuit MZ3 differentially amplifies the two received DC signals and inputs the amplified DC signal to the -I terminal of the fully differential output amplifier circuit MZ4. The MZ4 converts the received DC signal into two DC signals with opposite phases. The in-phase signal is input to the -AIN terminal of the differential input 24-bit A / D sampling circuit M2, and the inverted signal is input to the +AIN terminal of the differential input 24-bit A / D sampling circuit M2. The differential input 24-bit A / D sampling circuit M2 is a modification of the existing single-ended input 16-bit A / D sampling circuit. The differential input of the A / D sampling can suppress common-mode interference generated by the power supply. Furthermore, by using a 24-bit A / D sampling circuit, combined with improvements to the power supply circuit and reference voltage, the sampling resolution can be improved by at least one order of magnitude. This can improve the resolution of the single-wavelength, single-beam DNIR carbon dioxide sensor by one to two orders of magnitude. The differential input 24-bit A / D sampling circuit M2 converts the received signal into a digital signal and transmits the converted digital signal to the data processor through the SPI1 port. After the data processor performs calculations according to the Beer-Lambert theorem, it converts the signal into a digital quantity that corresponds exactly to the carbon dioxide concentration and transmits it to the host computer through the communication port.

This DC signal is then sent to operational amplifier U403A for impedance transformation, outputting a Ush DC signal. This Ush DC signal is then input to differential amplifier circuit MZ3. This signal reflects the electrical signal quantity corresponding to the luminous flux remaining after the infrared radiation from the light source is absorbed by the carbon dioxide sensor.

[0055] like Figure 8 The diagram shown is a schematic of the temperature-compensated DC signal generation circuit MZ2, including operational amplifier U401B.

One end of resistor R433 and one end of resistor R434 share the same network node, and the other end of resistor R434 is connected to AGND. One end of resistor R433 is connected to the differential input 24-bit A / D sampling circuit. Connect M2. A +5V power supply is connected to pin 3 of operational amplifier U405 and pin 8 of operational amplifier U404A. A 10uF / 16V capacitor C423 is connected to the other end of the +5V power supply, with one end of C423 connected to AGND. A -5V power supply is connected to pin 6 of operational amplifier U405 and pin 4 of operational amplifier U404A. A 10uF / 16V capacitor C424 is connected to the other end of the -5V power supply, with one end of C424 connected to AGND. This is used to adjust the bias voltage of the two differential signals output by operational amplifier U405, ensuring that the absolute voltage values ​​of both signals are above 100mV (because the minimum absolute voltage of the A / D analog input is Vmin = GND + 100mV), so that the subsequent 24-bit A / D sampling circuit can obtain the correct results.

[0059] like Figure 11 The diagram shows the specific circuit schematic of the differential input 24-bit A / D sampling circuit M2, including a 24-bit A / D sampler U406.

Pin 5 of the 24-bit A / D sampler U406 is connected to the end of resistor R433 furthest from operational amplifier U404A. The 24-bit A / D sampler U406 transmits data to the data processor via SPI1. The digital-to-analog conversion function of the differential input 24-bit A / D sampling circuit converts the input AIN+ and AIN- signals into digital signals. The differential input of the 24-bit A / D sampling circuit can suppress common-mode interference generated by the power supply. With improvements to the power supply circuit and reference voltage, the sampling resolution can be increased by at least one order of magnitude.

[0060] like Figure 12The diagram shows a specific schematic of the data processor, including an MCU chip. The MCU chip receives the digital signal from the 24-bit A / D sampling circuit, performs calculations according to the Beer-Lambert theorem, and converts it into a digital quantity that corresponds exactly to the carbon dioxide concentration. This digital quantity is then transmitted to the host computer through the communication port. The MCU chip also supplies DAC signals to the temperature-compensated DC signal generation circuit MZ2 and VREF signals to the output bias circuit.

[0061] In summary, improvements to the two-stage amplification bandpass filter circuit M1 can double the output range of the sine wave, extending it from 0 to 3.5V to -3.5V to +3.5V. The addition of a pure AC sine wave to DC signal conversion circuit MZ1, a temperature-compensated DC signal generation circuit MZ2, a differential amplifier circuit MZ3, and a fully differential output amplifier circuit MZ4 amplifies the output Uco2 DC signal voltage by a factor of K (K≥3). Improvements to the differential input 24-bit A / D sampling circuit M2 suppress common-mode interference from the power supply. Combined with improvements to the power supply circuit and reference voltage, the sampling resolution can be increased by at least one order of magnitude. Therefore, by combining these three points, the resolution of the single-wavelength, single-beam DNIR carbon dioxide sensor can be improved by one to two orders of magnitude.
