Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of radio electronics measurement, and in particular relates to a novel balanced-unbalanced matching impedance converter device. Background Art

[0002] A balun, short for balanced-to-unbalanced converter, is used to convert balanced signals of equal power and opposite phase into single-ended unbalanced signals for transmission to an unbalanced load. Conversely, it can also convert unbalanced signals into balanced signals. Furthermore, it provides impedance transformation, hence the name balanced feeder. These features have led to its widespread application in microwave technology and antennas, including high-power ultrasonic transducers and laboratory applications for high-power RF impedance matching. Common balun types include high-frequency open-circuit, offset, and transformer. High-frequency open-circuit baluns have a narrow operating bandwidth; offset baluns have a wider frequency bandwidth but are limited by magnetic saturation at high power levels. Transformer baluns primarily achieve balanced-to-unbalance conversion through a high-frequency transformer. Similar to a push-pull output converter, they convert unidirectional unbalanced current into bidirectional balanced current (or vice versa), offering a wide operating frequency band and suitable for high-power operation.

[0003] The impedance converter uses the transformer principle to achieve impedance transformation through the transformer's turns ratio. Since the output impedance of the power amplifier is 50Ω, the desired load impedance transformation can be achieved through the transformer's turns ratio. For example, if the transformer's turns ratio is 1:2, the voltage ratio between the input and output terminals is 1:2, that is, U i / U o =1:2, for maximum power transmission, the power at the balanced and unbalanced ends is equal, that is, P i =P o , so: U i 2 / R i =U o 2 / R o , from this we can get: R i / R o =1 / 4, which is the impedance ratio of 1:4 (the ratio of the square of the turns ratio). When the unbalanced terminal is connected to 50Ω, the impedance at the balanced end is 50×4=200Ω. Therefore, connecting a 200Ω load resistor to the balanced end can achieve impedance matching. At this time: P i is the input power, P o is the output power, U i is the input voltage, U o is the output voltage, R i is the input impedance, R o is the output impedance.

[0004] When calibrating high-frequency electrosurgical analysis, it's necessary to calibrate the power across different load resistors. The JJF1217-2009 High-Frequency Electrosurgical Calibration Specification specifies a range for non-inductive resistance boxes of (10 to 2000) Ω, a high-frequency power meter of (1 to 500) W, and a frequency range of (0.3 to 5.0) MHz. Therefore, when calibrating the load resistor of a high-frequency electrosurgical analyzer, it's necessary to calibrate the high-frequency power across different resistors.

[0005] Currently, the calibration of high-frequency electrosurgical analyzers in China primarily utilizes the electrosurgical analyzer calibration device and the power amplifier method. When using the electrosurgical analyzer calibration device, the technical specifications of current domestic electrosurgical analyzer calibration devices do not fully meet the calibration requirements, and their stability and reliability need to be improved. A major drawback is that they do not cover the frequency range, only measuring high-frequency power at (300-500) kHz and 1 MHz, with a maximum power of 400W, which does not provide sufficient margin. Furthermore, the corresponding load resistance range is limited to (200-500) Ω. The power amplifier method, on the other hand, meets both high-frequency power and frequency calibration requirements because the power amplifier has a 50 Ω output impedance. However, using the power amplifier alone for calibration only calibrates the power across the 50 Ω load resistor of the electrosurgical analyzer. Furthermore, because the power amplifier's output port is an N-type connector and the electrosurgical analyzer's input port is a high-voltage banana plug, a specialized adapter is required to complete the calibration circuit. Power calibration across different load resistors requires the use of a balanced-unbalanced impedance converter.

[0006] Currently, domestic impedance converters or baluns are primarily used in shortwave radio transmission. Their unbalanced ports are UHF, and their balanced ports are copper lugs. They cover a frequency range from 1 MHz to tens of MHz, and can deliver power up to several kilowatts. Applications in the calibration of high-frequency electrosurgical analyzers require interface improvements, and the low-end frequency range must be below 50 kHz. However, impedance accuracy across the entire frequency range is insufficient, resulting in large standing waves. At higher power levels, waveform distortion is significant, and power transmission efficiency is insufficient. Impedance transformers abroad are mainly used in ultrasonic transducers. Usually, there are several impedances to choose from, and the impedance selection is performed through a selection switch. However, the impedance accuracy is low. When the frequency is applied below 3MHz, the impedance accuracy is above 10%, while the frequency of the high-frequency electrosurgical analyzer can reach 5MHz. The accuracy of the load resistance is ±2.5%. Due to the poor impedance matching, the reflected power is large (Tang Wei, Yang Yumei, Zhang Yuxing. Research on transformer balun [J]. Modern Electronic Technology, 2008, 31(15): 3. DOI: 10.3969 / j.issn.1004-373X.2008.15.020.).

[0007] In summary, a new type of impedance conversion device is needed, which uses an N-type interface at the unbalanced end to match the power amplifier and a high-voltage banana plug interface at the balanced end to match the load resistor, especially to improve the impedance accuracy in the entire frequency range, improve impedance matching and power transmission efficiency.

[0020] Furthermore, the interfaces of the first balanced output terminal and the second balanced output terminal adopt 4mm banana female connectors, which can be matched and connected to the two ends of the calibrated load resistor through banana connector cables.

[0021] Furthermore, the first PVC tube is a round tube made of PVC, with an outer diameter of 50 mm, a tube wall thickness of 1 mm, and a length of 145 mm.

[0022] Furthermore, the first PVC tube sleeve and the second PVC tube sleeve are made of PVC, have an outer diameter of 56.5 mm, a tube wall thickness of 1 mm, and a length of 30 mm.

[0023] Furthermore, the second PVC tube is a round tube made of PVC, with an outer diameter of 75 mm, a tube wall thickness of 1 mm, and a length of 168 mm.

[0024] Furthermore, the third PVC pipe sleeve and the fourth PVC pipe sleeve are made of PVC, have an outer diameter of 82.5 mm, a pipe wall thickness of 1 mm, and a length of 45 mm.

[0025] Furthermore, the 1:1 impedance converter, 1:2 impedance converter, 1:3 impedance converter, 1:4 impedance converter, 1:6 impedance converter, 1:10 impedance converter, 1:16 impedance converter, and 1:20 impedance converter are arranged in two layers in the PVC chassis. The four impedance converters, 1:1 impedance converter, 1:2 impedance converter, 1:3 impedance converter, and 1:4 impedance converter, are located in the lower layer, and the other four impedance converters are located in the upper layer. A fixed plate is provided between the upper and lower layers for separation.

[0026] Furthermore, for a 1:1 impedance converter, the number of turns of the primary winding is 3 turns, the number of turns of the secondary winding is 3 turns, the impedance of the unbalanced input end is 50Ω, and the impedance of the balanced output end is 50Ω.

[0027] Furthermore, for a 1:2 impedance converter, the number of turns of the primary winding is 5, the number of turns of the secondary winding is 7, the impedance of the unbalanced input end is 50Ω, and the impedance of the balanced output end is 100Ω.

[0028] Furthermore, for a 1:3 impedance converter, the number of turns of the primary winding is 4, the number of turns of the secondary winding is 7, the impedance of the unbalanced input end is 50Ω, and the impedance of the balanced output end is 100Ω.

[0029] Furthermore, for a 1:4 impedance converter, the number of turns of the primary winding is 4, the number of turns of the secondary winding is 8, the impedance of the unbalanced input end is 50Ω, and the impedance of the balanced output end is 100Ω.

[0030] Furthermore, for a 1:6 impedance converter, the number of turns of the primary winding is 7, the number of turns of the secondary winding is 17, the unbalanced end impedance is 50Ω, and the balanced end impedance is 300Ω.

[0031] Furthermore, for a 1:10 impedance converter, the number of turns of the primary winding is 6, the number of turns of the secondary winding is 19, the impedance of the unbalanced input end is 50Ω, and the impedance of the balanced output end is 500Ω.

[0034] When selecting a toroidal core for an impedance converter, the number of turns of the primary and secondary windings, as well as the inner diameter of the toroidal core, must be considered. If the number of turns of the primary and secondary windings cannot be wound together, a toroidal core with a larger inner diameter must be selected when stacking the cores. The basic principles for selecting the number of turns of the primary and secondary windings are as follows:

[0035] Assuming the turns ratio of the primary winding and the secondary winding is: 1:N, the impedance ratio is: 1:N 2 ;

[0036] Conversely, if the impedance ratio is 1:N, then the impedance ratio is:

[0037] Assuming the number of turns of the primary winding is n, the number of turns of the secondary winding is: Where: N = 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 10, 16, 20; n = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, etc., where n is a natural number;

[0038] Since it is difficult to wind a non-integer number of turns in the actual winding process, The value of is the integer closest to a natural number.

[0039] In addition to the basic principles, the determination of the number of turns of the primary and secondary windings also needs to consider multiple factors such as the inner diameter of the magnetic core, the diameter of the silver-plated wire used in the winding, and the inductance of the winding. These factors should be determined after comprehensive consideration and actual testing.

[0040] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0041] (1) The present invention proposes the use of a balanced-unbalanced matching impedance converter for matching the load impedance of a high-frequency electrosurgery analyzer when calibrating the high-frequency electrosurgery analyzer. The nominal range of the load impedance of the high-frequency electrosurgery analyzer is (10-6400) Ω. When calibrating the high-frequency electrosurgery analyzer, it is necessary to measure high-frequency power, high-frequency voltage, and high-frequency current on different loads. The commonly used load impedances of the high-frequency electrosurgery analyzer are 50Ω, 100Ω, 150Ω, 200Ω, 300Ω, 500Ω, 800Ω, and 1000Ω. In this way, when calibrating the high-frequency electrosurgery analyzer, the impedance can be fully matched according to the load impedance used by the customer, meeting the calibration measurement requirements. This overcomes the problem that the load impedance adjustable range of the high-frequency electrosurgery analyzer calibration device cannot cover the commonly used load impedance of the high-frequency electrosurgery analyzer.

[0042] This balun impedance converter device can achieve arbitrarily adjustable output of standard power within the frequency range of 300kHz to 5MHz, as required by JJF1217-2009, "High-Frequency Electrosurgical Calibration Specifications." This device enables traceability of measurement values ​​for high-frequency electrosurgical analyzer instruments, eliminating the need for a wide impedance measurement range for the calibration device. The balun impedance converter can achieve a wide range of impedance variations, theoretically covering the entire electrosurgical analyzer impedance range of 10Ω to 6400Ω, and meeting traceability requirements for current and power under varying impedances.

[0043] (2) The present invention proposes the design of a balanced-unbalanced matching impedance converter using a manganese-zinc ferrite core. The frequency range of manganese-zinc ferrite can cover 100kHz to 10MHz. The commonly used frequency range for calibration of high-frequency electrosurgical analyzers is 300kHz to 1MHz, and its nominal maximum bandwidth is 10MHz. Therefore, the frequency range of the manganese-zinc ferrite core completely covers the frequency bandwidth range of the high-frequency electrosurgical analyzer. Within this frequency range, the power, current, and voltage at any frequency point can be measured, meeting the calibration requirements of the high-frequency electrosurgical analyzer.

[0044] (3) The present invention achieves high-frequency, high-power transmission by stacking multiple manganese-zinc ferrite cores. A single core has a power of 100 to 150 watts, and stacking six cores can achieve a transmission power of 5 milliwatts to 800 watts. The maximum high-frequency power at the load impedance of a high-frequency electrosurgical analyzer is 500 watts. Therefore, calibration can be achieved at any power point at each load impedance of the high-frequency electrosurgical analyzer.

[0045] (4) The present invention uses multiple strands of silver wire to wind the magnetic core. When the high-frequency current is sufficient, the multiple strands of silver wire have better high-frequency characteristics than the existing copper enameled wire. It can achieve higher frequencies with less waveform distortion and less power loss.

[0046] (5) The present invention uses an N-type female connector at the unbalanced end and a 4mm banana connector at the balanced end, distinguished by red and black, with red representing the positive polarity or signal end and black representing the negative polarity or ground end. The N-type female connector can ensure matching connection with the power amplifier or directional coupler, reducing high-frequency signal reflection. The 4mm banana connector is directly connected to the load port of the calibrated high-frequency electric knife analyzer via a 4mm banana connector test cable, without the need for adapters, thereby improving power transfer efficiency.

[0047] (6) The present invention uses PVC tubes to fix multiple stacked manganese-zinc ferrite cores, solving the problem of core movement and possible wear caused by multiple connections and plugging and unplugging of test lines.

[0048] (7) The high-frequency electrosurgery analyzer calibration device composed of the balanced-unbalanced matching impedance converter, power amplifier, microwave signal generator, current and voltage measurement standards provides a new measurement standard and measurement method for the calibration of the high-frequency electrosurgery analyzer, which can completely replace the existing measurement standard of the high-frequency electrosurgery analyzer.

[0049] (8) Each impedance transformation adopts an independent magnetic core superposition winding method, which is more accurate and has lower loss than the impedance transformation performed by the large-size magnetic core tapping method using a switching switch, and there is no need to consider the impact of the switching switch.

[0050] (9) Impedance tests were conducted on the balun provided by the present invention and an existing imported impedance converter. The results showed that the 200Ω balun provided by the present invention had higher accuracy than the balun. This indicates that the present invention can achieve better impedance matching and improve power transmission efficiency in practical applications. This demonstrates the effectiveness of the present invention.

[0051] (10) Impedance tests were conducted on the balun provided by the present invention and an existing imported impedance converter. The results showed that the 50Ω balun provided by the present invention had higher accuracy than the balun. This can achieve better impedance matching and improve power transmission efficiency in practical applications, demonstrating the effectiveness of the present invention.

[0052] (11) Impedance tests were conducted on the balun provided by the present invention and an existing imported impedance converter. The results showed that the 50Ω balun provided by the present invention had higher accuracy than the balun. This indicates that the present invention can achieve better impedance matching and improve power transmission efficiency in practical applications. This demonstrates the effectiveness of the present invention. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
