Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of avionics, and in particular to a surge current protection and suppression circuit. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of electronic technology, various electronic devices and systems are widely used in home appliances, communications, national defense, aviation and other fields. Therefore, the safety, reliability and quality of the power supply system have a huge impact on people's lives and work. Due to the presence of a large number of capacitive devices such as capacitors inside electronic equipment, the circuit has capacitive properties. At the moment of starting up high-power electronic equipment, a large charging current can be generated; in addition, due to the large power of the electronic equipment itself, the input working current is large, and the superposition of the instantaneous charging current and the input working current will produce a larger starting current. This instantaneous large starting current is the surge current. The surge current will not only damage the electronic equipment, but also interfere with and damage the power supply facilities, so the surge current must be suppressed.

[0003] In order to suppress the surge current, there are currently several solutions:

[0004] (1) Traditional method: Add a suitable negative temperature coefficient thermistor (NTC) to the power supply circuit, such as a surge suppression circuit and surge suppression method with publication number CN116207727A, which uses the characteristic that its impedance is affected by temperature to achieve the purpose of suppressing surge current; however, the surge suppression effect is poor when the power supply is repeatedly turned on and off for a short period of time.

[0005] (2) Using a surge suppressor solution: The MOS tube inside the DC surge suppressor is required to have a higher single avalanche energy (EAS single avalanche energy), but its on-resistance (Rds) is large and the loss is large under normal operating voltage, which is not suitable for equipment with strict power consumption requirements.

[0006] (3) Using controller and MOS tube solution: It requires a special PWM controller or single-chip microcomputer for control. The circuit design is complex and the risk is high. It is not suitable for aviation design requirements where the hardware is as simple as possible. Summary of the invention

[0007] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a surge current protection and suppression circuit, which can make the surge current control more precise by adjusting the resistance value of the regulating resistor R2, and at the same time make the debugging of the entire circuit more convenient, more flexible and more practical.

[0008] The present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0009] A surge current protection and suppression circuit comprises an instruction control module M1 and an surge current suppression module M4, wherein the instruction control module M1 comprises a magnetic latching relay K11, a power supply pin of the magnetic latching relay K11 is connected to a current limiting circuit, the surge current suppression module M4 comprises a voltage-dividing resistor R1 and a voltage-dividing resistor R4 connected in series, an RC oscillation circuit is connected in parallel at both ends of the voltage-dividing resistor R1, the RC oscillation circuit is further connected to an adjustment resistor R2, the adjustment resistor R2 is connected to the voltage-dividing resistor R1, the RC oscillation circuit is connected to a MOS tube Q1, the MOS tube Q1 is connected to a load module M5, the voltage-dividing resistor R1 is further connected to a surge current protection module M3, and the surge current protection module M3 is connected to a primary power supply module M2.

[0010] Furthermore, the RC oscillator circuit includes a filter circuit I, a filter circuit II and a current limiting resistor R3. The filter circuit I and the filter circuit II are connected in parallel and are respectively connected to the current limiting resistor R3 and the adjustment resistor R2.

[0012] Furthermore, the current limiting circuit includes a current limiting resistor R30, a current limiting resistor R31, a current limiting resistor R8 and a current limiting resistor R10. The current limiting resistor R30 and the current limiting resistor R31 are connected in parallel to the X1 end of the magnetic latching relay K11. The X2 end of the magnetic latching relay K11 is connected in series with a diode D2 and a diode D1, and the diode D1 is connected to the X1 end of the magnetic latching relay K11; the current limiting resistor R8 and the current limiting resistor R10 are connected in parallel to the Y1 end of the magnetic latching relay K11.

[0013] Furthermore, the surge current protection module M3 includes a fuse F1, a fuse F2 and a protective resistor R5. The fuse F2 and the protective resistor R5 are connected in series and then in parallel with the fuse F1. The parallel ends of the protective resistor R5 and the fuse F1 are connected to the primary power supply module M2. On the one hand, it can play a role in current derating, and on the other hand, it can improve the fuse's ability to resist surge current, increase the number of times the line can withstand surge current, and play a double insurance role.

[0014] Furthermore, the primary power supply module M2 is a satellite solar power supply circuit.

[0015] Furthermore, the load module M5 is a load resistor R20.

[0026] Instruction control module M1: POWER_CTRL+ is connected to the positive pole of the control power supply. The coil of the magnetic latching relay K11 is not energized by default. The internal contacts A2 and A3 of the magnetic latching relay K11 are connected. At this time, both ends of the voltage divider resistor R1 are the primary power supply voltage VCC, and the VGS of the MOS tube Q1 is 0V, which is not conductive; when the device needs to be powered on, a low-level pulse control instruction is given to POWER_ON, which makes the internal coil of the magnetic latching relay K11 energized instantly, and the contacts A2 and A1 are connected. At this time, the contacts The voltage of A3 is the divided voltage of the voltage-dividing resistor R1 and the voltage-dividing resistor R4, UA3 = VCC_M*R4 / (R1+R4). At this time, the VGS of the MOS tube Q1 is less than 0V, it is turned on, and the load is powered. When the power supply of the device needs to be disconnected, a low-level pulse control instruction is given to POWER_DOWN, so that the internal coil of the magnetic latching relay K11 is instantly de-energized, and the contact A2 and the contact A3 are connected. Both ends of the voltage-dividing resistor R1 are the primary power supply voltage VCC, and the VGS of the MOS tube Q1 is 0V. The path is disconnected and the load loses power. Diodes D1-D4 are Schottky diodes and are connected in parallel at both ends of the coil. The main function is to freewheel, prevent voltage and current mutations when the coil is turned on and off, and protect the components in the circuit from being damaged.

[0027] Surge current protection module M3: When a surge current occurs at the moment the equipment is turned on, fuse F1 carries the main current. When the surge lasts for a certain time or a certain number of times, it will reach the melting point and burn out. If the surge still continues at this time, fuse F2 begins to carry the entire surge current until it burns out. When the surge is eliminated or the peak current is reduced or the number of times is not enough to cause fuse F2 to burn out, fuse F2 can ensure the normal operation of the circuit. When a line fails or a short-circuit current is generated, fuse F1 and fuse F2 will burn out in turn to protect the subsequent circuit. Under the same surge current conditions, this parallel circuit design can improve the surge resistance of the fuse, increase the number of times the line can withstand surge current, delay the power-off time of the circuit, and play a double insurance role.

[0028] Surge current suppression module M4: The present invention can easily change the RC time constant by only changing the resistance of the adjustment resistor R2 (in the traditional circuit, it is necessary to adjust the capacitance of each filter capacitor or adjust the resistance of the voltage divider resistor R4, but after adjusting the voltage divider resistor R4, in order to ensure that the final VGS voltage remains unchanged, the resistance of the voltage divider resistor R1 also needs to be changed, so the debugging of the entire circuit is very cumbersome), without having to adjust the resistance of the voltage divider resistor R1 and the voltage divider resistor R4 at the same time, thereby making the entire circuit more flexible, convenient and practical.
