Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of load detection, and in particular to a load detection circuit and a driving device. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of electronic technology, terminal equipment such as audio amplifiers, power amplifiers and various high-precision electronic equipment are increasingly widely used. These devices often need to operate under high power or specific load conditions to achieve their specific functions, such as providing high-quality audio output, driving high-power loads, etc. In order to achieve these functions, the traditional driving method mainly relies on a stable power supply and amplifies the signal through an amplifier circuit.
[0003] When the device has high power or uses a multi-stage amplification structure (such as connecting another amplifier to achieve linear amplification), the load impedance faced by the system often increases significantly. High-impedance loads place higher demands on the stability and driving capability of the power supply, and also bring huge challenges to testing.
[0004] Traditional load testing methods, such as the current-passing and voltage-measuring method, can reflect the electrical characteristics of the load to a certain extent, but they are obviously insufficient when facing high-impedance loads. Since the charging time of high-impedance loads is relatively long, when testing by current-passing and voltage-measuring, a lot of time is required to wait for the load voltage to reach a stable state, which not only reduces the test efficiency but also increases the uncertainty in the test process. In addition, since the current charging process is difficult to control accurately, especially under high current and high voltage conditions, overcharging is prone to occur, which may not only damage the test equipment, but also cause irreversible damage to the load being tested.

[0016] Figure 1A structural schematic diagram of a load detection circuit 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is given. The load detection circuit 100 includes a first detection port P1, a first resistor R1, a first switch K1, and a second detection port P2. The first detection port P1 is used to receive a detection current I1, and the first detection port P1 is used to couple a first end of a load Rk, and the first end of the load Rk has a first potential U1. The first resistor R1 has a first end and a second end, and the first end thereof receives the detection current I1. The first switch K1 has a first end and a second end, and the first end thereof is coupled to the second end of the first resistor R1. The second detection port P2 is coupled to the second end of the first switch K1, and the second detection port P2 is used to couple the second end of the load Rk, and the second end of the load Rk has a second potential U2. In one embodiment, when the load detection circuit 100 is in the first state, the first switch K1 is closed, the detection current I1 represents a first current value, and the first potential U1 and the second potential U2 are both related to the detection current I1 and the first resistor R1. In one embodiment, U1-U2=I1*R1. In one embodiment, when the load detection circuit 100 is in the second state, the first switch K1 is disconnected, and the detection current I1 represents the second current value. The load detection circuit 100 operates in the first state and the second state in sequence. The first current value is greater than the second current value. When the load Rk is short-circuited, the difference between the first potential U1 and the second potential U2 is less than the first preset value VTH1, that is, U1-U2<VTH1. When the load Rk is open-circuited, the difference between the first potential U1 and the second potential U2 is greater than the second preset value VTH2, that is, U1-U2>VTH2. In one embodiment, the first preset value VTH1 is equal to the second preset value VTH2.
[0017] in this way, Figure 1 The load detection circuit 100 shown in the above configuration first uses the detection current I1 of the first current value to make the voltage difference between the first detection port P1 and the second detection port P2 reach the preset voltage value according to the set first resistor R1 and the detection current I1. Since the first current value is greater than the second current value, the difference between the first potential U1 and the second potential U2 can quickly reach the preset voltage value, thereby achieving the purpose of rapid voltage boost, thereby reducing the time for voltage establishment. Subsequently, the detection current I1 of the second current value is used to make the voltage difference between the first detection port P1 and the second detection port P2 reach the real voltage value of the load according to the resistance value of the load Rk and the detection current I1, and the state of the load Rk (open circuit, short circuit or stable) is determined by the size of the real voltage value.
[0018] continue Figure 1In the description, when the load detection circuit 100 is in the first state, when the detection current I1 flows through the first resistor R1, the difference between the first potential U1 and the second potential U2 is generated according to the detection current I1 and the first resistor R1, that is, U1-U2=I1*R1. When the load detection circuit 100 is in the second state, the detection current I1 flows through the load Rk, and the difference between the first potential U1 and the second potential U2 is generated according to the detection current I1 and the load Rk, that is, U1-U2=I1*RLO, where RLO is the resistance of the load Rk. In one embodiment, RLO is 10kΩ.
[0019] continue Figure 1 The load detection circuit 100 further includes a gain amplifier A. The gain amplifier A has a first input terminal, a second input terminal, and an output terminal. The first input terminal of the gain amplifier A receives a reference voltage Vref, the second input terminal of the gain amplifier A is coupled to the output terminal, and the output terminal of the gain amplifier A is coupled to the second terminal of the first switch K1. The gain amplifier A is configured to absorb the detection current I1 when the load detection circuit 100 operates in the first state and the second state.
[0020] exist Figure 1 In the embodiment of the load detection circuit 100, when the load detection circuit 100 operates in the first state, the detection current I1 flows through the first resistor R1 and the first switch K1 and then flows to the gain amplifier A, and the gain amplifier A absorbs the detection current I1. The first potential U1 and the second potential U2 increase, and the difference between the first potential U1 and the second potential U2 (the voltage difference between the first detection port P1 and the second detection port P2) is generated according to the detection current I1 and the first resistor R1, so that U1-U2=I1*R1.
[0021] exist Figure 1 In an embodiment, when the load detection circuit 100 operates in the second state, based on the difference between the first potential U1 and the second potential U2 in the first state, the detection current I1 is output from the first detection port P1, flows through the load Rk, is input from the second detection port P2, and flows to the gain amplifier A, and the gain amplifier A absorbs the detection current I1. The difference between the first potential U1 and the second potential U2 is generated according to the detection current I1 and the load Rk. That is, the value of the first potential U1 and the difference between the second potential U2 are adjusted so that U1-U2=I1*RLO. In an embodiment, if the difference between the first potential U1 and the second potential U2 in the first state is less than the value of I1*RLO, the difference between the first potential U1 and the second potential U2 increases. In an embodiment, if the difference between the first potential U1 and the second potential U2 in the first state is greater than the value of I1*RLO, the difference between the first potential U1 and the second potential U2 decreases.
[0022] exist Figure 1In one embodiment, the gain amplifier A is a unit gain driver, and its efficiency effect is 1. In one embodiment, the first input terminal of the gain amplifier A is a positive phase input terminal, and the second input terminal of the gain amplifier A is a negative phase input terminal. In this way, the detection current I1 flows into the gain amplifier A from the negative phase input terminal, and the second input terminal of the gain amplifier A is coupled to the output terminal to achieve that the output current is consistent with the input current, that is, the output current follows the input current. The detection current I1 circulates inside the gain amplifier A, achieving the effect of being "absorbed" by the gain amplifier A. Then, through a current path provided by the gain amplifier A, the detection current I1 can maintain its constant current output.

In one embodiment, when the load detection circuit 100 is in the second state, the first switch K1 is closed, the detection current I1 represents the first current value, and the first potential U1 and the second potential U2 are both related to the detection current I1 and the first resistor R1. In one embodiment, U1-U2=I1*R1. In one embodiment, when the load detection circuit 100 is in the third state, the first switch K1 is disconnected, and the detection current I1 represents the second current value. Among them, the load detection circuit 100 operates in the first state, the second state, and the third state in sequence. The first current value is greater than the second current value. When the load Rk is short-circuited, the difference between the first potential U1 and the second potential U2 is less than the first preset value VTH1, that is, U1-U2<VTH1.

The second filter 13 is coupled to the second detection port P2 and the second input terminal of the amplifier 11. In this way, the detection current I1 is input to the amplifier 11 through the first filter 12 and the second filter 13, so that the amplifier 11 can operate more stably and prevent the load Rk from being damaged.
[0026] exist Figure 2 In the embodiment of the load detection circuit 200, when the load detection circuit 200 is in the first state, the gain amplifier A outputs a driving current I2, and the driving current I2 flows through the first filter 12 and the second filter 13 to charge the first filter 12 and the second filter 13.

Among them, the first potential U1 is the same as the second potential U2, that is, the potentials at the first detection port P1 and the second detection port P2 are the same. In one embodiment, the magnitude of the driving current I2 output by the gain amplifier A is related to the value of the reference voltage VREF. In this way, when the load detection circuit 100 is in the first state, the potential at the first filter 12 and the second filter 13 is charged to a preset common mode voltage through the driving current I2, thereby avoiding the problem of negative differential voltages at the two input terminals of the load Rk when the load detection circuit 200 is in the second state, that is, the voltage of the first input terminal of the load Rk representing the positive phase input terminal is less than the voltage of the second input terminal representing the negative phase input terminal, and the first potential U1 and the second potential U2 are preferentially charged to high potentials through the driving current I2, which can greatly improve the speed.

[0034] In summary, the present invention adopts a load detection circuit 100, including a first resistor R1 and a first switch K1 arranged in series, and a detection current I1 flows through the first resistor R1 and the first switch K1 to adjust the potential at the first detection port P1 and the second detection port P2. When the first switch K1 is turned on, the load detection circuit 100 is in the first state, and the first resistor R1 and the detection current I1 are used to adjust the first potential U1 and the second potential U2 so that the voltage difference between the first potential U1 and the second potential U2 is R1*I1. Then the first switch K1 is turned off to put the load detection circuit 100 in the second state, and the load Rk and the detection current I1 are used to adjust the voltage difference between the first potential U1 and the second potential U2 so that it is RLO*I1. Since the current value of the detection current I1 in the first state is greater than the current value in the second state, the voltage difference between the first potential U1 and the second potential U2 can quickly reach the value of R1*I1, so that the value of R1*I1 is adjusted to the value of RLO*I1 more quickly in the second state.

When the second switch K2 is turned on, the load detection circuit 100 is in the first state, and the gain amplifier A outputs a drive current I2 to charge the filter at the load Rk end so that the potential at the first detection port P1 and the second detection port P2 are at the same potential, thereby avoiding the problem of negative differential voltage generated at the two input ends of the load Rk when the load detection circuit 200 is in the second state. Then the second switch K2 is turned off and the first switch K1 is turned on to put the load detection circuit 100 in the second state, and the potential at the first detection port P1 and the second detection port P2 is adjusted by the first resistor R1 and the detection current I1 so that the voltage difference between the first detection port P1 and the second detection port P2 is R1*I1. In this state, based on the preprocessing of the first potential U1 and the second potential U2 in the first state, the detection current I1 with a larger current flows through the first resistor R1 so that the voltage difference between the first potential U1 and the second potential U2 can be quickly adjusted to the value of R1*I1. Then the first switch K1 is disconnected to put the load detection circuit 100 in the third state, and the voltage difference between the first potential U1 and the second potential U2 is adjusted to RLO*I1 by using the load Rk and the detection current I1, thereby ensuring that the voltage difference between the first potential U1 and the second potential U2 is adjusted from the value of R1*I1 to the value of RLO*I1 more quickly.
