Description

Technical Field

[0002] Lasers are divided into continuous lasers and pulsed lasers in terms of operation. Pulsed lasers refer to lasers with a single laser pulse width of less than 0.25 seconds, which work only once every certain period of time.

The biggest difference between dual-pulse lasers and single-pulse lasers is the number and time of emitted pulses. They can control the laser to output alternately at two different time points. The control is to control the corresponding laser tube to conduct through two pulse signals with different duty cycles.

[0018] Specifically, the seventh resistor R7 is an adjustable resistor.

[0019] Specifically, the first resistor R1, the second resistor R2, and the third resistor R3 are adjustable resistors.

[0020] Specifically, V1 is an adjustable pulse signal generator.

[0021] In the present invention, the sub-control circuit is started after the first connector P1 inputs a signal, and the required base frequency starting voltage is respectively input to the inverting terminal of the first operational amplifier U1 and the non-inverting terminal of the second operational amplifier U2. In this application, a three-resistance voltage division method is used instead. When an upper-level chip is provided, the initial base frequency is set by an adjustable power supply. The voltage at the inverting terminal of the first operational amplifier U1 needs to be greater than the voltage at the non-inverting terminal of the second operational amplifier U2. The smaller the difference, the greater the base frequency. When there is no signal output from the first connector P1, the first pin of the third trigger U3 is set, and the sixth pin complies with the output and inputs the signal to the base of the first transistor Q1. The first transistor Q1 is turned on, and the collector power supply of the first transistor Q1 stores energy in the first capacitor C1 through the fourth resistor R4 to the first operational amplifier. The amplifier U1 outputs, the output end of the first operational amplifier U1 is fed back to the first solid-state relay S1 through the first diode D1, when the first connector P1 inputs a signal, the sub-control circuit is started, the first solid-state relay S1 is closed, and the third pin of the initial third trigger U3 is pulled down through the fifth resistor R5. At this time, the first connector P1 is closed, and the output end signal of the first operational amplifier U1 is input to the third trigger U3 through the first diode D1 and the first solid-state relay S1. The sixth pin of the third trigger U3 is cut off to cut off the first transistor Q1, and the fifth pin outputs a signal to the base of the second transistor Q2. The voltage at the end of the first capacitor C1 will pass through the seventh resistor R7, the collector of the second transistor Q2, the emitter of the second transistor Q2, and the The ground end loop, when the voltage at the connection end of the first capacitor C1 and the seventh resistor R7 drops to lower than the base frequency starting voltage set by the first operational amplifier U1, the first operational amplifier U1 is cut off, and the third pin of the third trigger U3 is looped through the fifth resistor R5 again, waiting for the voltage at the connection end of the first capacitor C1 and the seventh resistor R7 to drop to lower than the base frequency starting voltage set by the in-phase end of the second operational amplifier U2, the output end signal of the second operational amplifier U2 is fed back to the third pin of the third trigger U3 through the second diode D2 and the first solid-state relay S1, and the sixth pin of the third trigger U3 outputs a signal to the base of the first transistor Q1 again, the first transistor Q1 is turned on, and the collector power supply of the first transistor Q1 is input to the first transistor Q1 through the fourth resistor R4. A capacitor C1, if the resistance value of the seventh resistor R7 is consistent with that of the fourth resistor R4, the output of the fifth pin and the sixth pin of the third trigger U3 is equally divided at the base frequency. After adjusting the knob of the seventh resistor R7, the distribution ratio can be changed at the base frequency. The fifth pin signal is input to the in-phase terminal of the fourth operational amplifier U4 through the third diode D3, and the sixth pin is input to the in-phase terminal of the fifth operational amplifier U5 through the fourth diode D4. The fourth operational amplifier U4 and the fifth operational amplifier U5 inverting terminals are connected in parallel to input the PWM pulse signal V1. The fourth operational amplifier U4 and the fifth operational amplifier U5 are in the cut-off state when a high-level pulse arrives, and are output based on the output of the fifth pin and the sixth pin of the third trigger U3 when a low-level pulse arrives.Let the actual output frequency of each high level width of the fourth operational amplifier U4 and the fifth operational amplifier U5 be equal to the sum of the distribution ratios. The output ends of the fourth operational amplifier U4 and the fifth operational amplifier U5 are amplified by the sixth optical coupling module U6 and the seventh optical coupling module U7 photodiodes to the internal photosensitive transistors and then output to the second connector P2 and the third connector P3 to the laser for operation. The amplification can also be done without isolation. The output drive signals of the fourth operational amplifier U4 and the fifth operational amplifier U5 are amplified by the transistors and then input to the laser, thereby completing the separate control of the two lasers. Under separate control, the input PWM pulse signal V1 can be used to control each high level pulse width (power) in the cycle to be composed of the proportion of the output adjusted by the fourth operational amplifier U4 and the fifth operational amplifier U5 based on the base frequency, and without changing the pulse width, the repetition frequency of each laser can be reduced to half of the original repetition frequency at most. ,
