Background Art

In particular, the DC power supply equipment used in the laboratory may cause damage to the back-end equipment due to misoperation or internal failure of the power supply equipment.

[0003] Laboratory DC power supplies generally power some expensive electronic equipment or complex low-voltage circuits.

The power supply fault joint protection circuit can respond quickly to protect the safety of subsequent equipment and circuits.

[0042] In order to more clearly demonstrate the technical solution and technical effects provided by the present invention, the embodiments of the present invention are described in detail with specific embodiments below.

[0043] Example 1

[0044] like Figure 1 As shown:

[0045] A DC power supply fault joint protection for laboratory use, comprising: a plurality of MOS tubes (Q1, Q2...) connected in series to the output positive, a plurality of MOS tubes (Q3, Q4...) connected in parallel between the output positive and negative; a four-terminal current sampling resistor (R1) connected in series to the output positive; a fuse tube (F1) connected in series between the MOS tubes (Q3, Q4...) and the four-terminal current sampling resistor (R1); a voltage sampling circuit connected to the DC power supply output terminal; a voltage and current acquisition signal processing circuit respectively connected to a positive feedback system; an overvoltage and overcurrent setting value is set by a single-chip microcomputer through a DA; an overtemperature circuit detects the temperature rise of the MOS tubes (Q3, Q4...) to determine whether to replace the fuse. In order to achieve rapid response, the present invention adopts analog circuit construction for signal processing and triggering, and software is used to realize functions such as flexible setting of overvoltage and overcurrent, sound and light alarm, and fault display.

[0046] The output end of the laboratory DC power supply is connected to this circuit, and the output of this circuit is connected to the subsequent equipment or circuit. The auxiliary power supply supplies power to the low-voltage circuit of the entire circuit, and the fault joint protection circuit starts to work. The following will describe the circuit working process in three cases: overvoltage / overcurrent caused by misoperation, overvoltage / overcurrent output caused by open-loop power supply, and overvoltage / overcurrent output caused by power failure.

[0047] The DC power supply used in the laboratory generally has the function of constant voltage / constant current output. If the output voltage is overvoltage due to misoperation, it means that the output current is within the controllable range. Then the voltage detection circuit detects the overvoltage signal, and generates an error signal by comparing it with the overvoltage setting value. After the positive feedback circuit and the timing circuit, the MOS tube (Q3, Q4...) is driven first, and the MOS tube (Q3, Q4...) changes from the off state to the on state, the output is short-circuited, and the laboratory DC power supply enters the constant current state, and the subsequent equipment and circuits will not be damaged due to overvoltage. Then the drive of the MOS tube (Q1, Q2...) is turned off, and the MOS tube (Q1, Q2...) changes from the on state to the off state, disconnecting the laboratory DC power supply output from the subsequent equipment or circuit, jointly ensuring the safety of the subsequent equipment and circuit, and transmitting the fault signal to the single-chip microcomputer to trigger the overvoltage alarm.

[0048] If the output overcurrent is caused by misoperation, the current detection circuit detects the overcurrent signal through the four-terminal current sampling resistor (R1), and generates an error signal by comparing it with the overcurrent setting value. After the positive feedback circuit and the timing circuit, the MOS tube (Q3, Q4...) is driven first, and the MOS tube (Q3, Q4...) changes from the off state to the on state, the output is short-circuited, and the output current flowing into the subsequent equipment or circuit is bypassed. Then the drive of the MOS tube (Q1, Q2...) is turned off, and the MOS tube (Q1, Q2...) changes from the on state to the off state, disconnecting the laboratory DC power supply output from the subsequent equipment or circuit, jointly ensuring the safety of the subsequent equipment and circuit, and transmitting the fault signal to the microcontroller to trigger the overcurrent alarm.

[0049] If the laboratory DC power supply output is overvoltage due to open loop power supply, it means that the power supply output current is in an uncontrollable range. Then the voltage detection circuit detects the overvoltage signal, and generates an error signal by comparing it with the overvoltage setting value. After the positive feedback circuit and the timing circuit, the MOS tube (Q3, Q4...) is driven first, and the MOS tube (Q3, Q4...) changes from the off state to the on state, and the output is short-circuited, and the subsequent equipment and circuit will not be damaged due to overvoltage. Then the drive of the MOS tube (Q1, Q2...) is turned off, and the MOS tube (Q1, Q2...) changes from the on state to the off state, disconnecting the laboratory DC power supply output from the subsequent equipment or circuit, jointly ensuring the safety of the subsequent equipment and circuit. And transmit the fault signal to the microcontroller, triggering the overcurrent alarm. Although the on / off time of the MOS tubes (Q3, Q4...) and MOS tubes (Q1, Q2...) is very short, the output current is uncontrollable and may cause the MOS tubes (Q3, Q4...) to overheat and be damaged. At this time, the fuse (F1) will melt before the MOS tubes (Q3, Q4...), which not only disconnects the laboratory DC power supply output from the subsequent equipment or circuit, but also protects the MOS tubes (Q3, Q4...) from damage, and prompts to replace the fuse through temperature detection.

[0050] If the laboratory DC power supply output overcurrent is caused by the open loop of the power supply, the current detection circuit detects the overcurrent signal through the four-terminal current sampling resistor (R1), and generates an error signal by comparing it with the overcurrent setting value. After the positive feedback circuit and the timing circuit, the MOS tube (Q3, Q4...) is driven preferentially, and the MOS tube (Q3, Q4...) changes from the off state to the on state, the output is short-circuited, and the output current flowing into the subsequent equipment or circuit is bypassed, and then the drive of the MOS tube (Q1, Q2...) is turned off, and the MOS tube (Q1, Q2...) changes from the on state to the off state, disconnecting the laboratory DC power supply output from the subsequent equipment or circuit, jointly ensuring the safety of the subsequent equipment and circuit, and transmitting the fault signal to the microcontroller to trigger the overcurrent alarm. Although the on / off time of the MOS tubes (Q3, Q4...) and MOS tubes (Q1, Q2...) is very short, the output current is too large, which may cause the MOS tubes (Q3, Q4...) to overheat and be damaged. At this time, the fuse (F1) will melt before the MOS tubes (Q3, Q4...), which not only disconnects the laboratory DC power supply output from the subsequent equipment or circuit, but also protects the MOS tubes (Q3, Q4...) from damage, and prompts to replace the fuse through temperature detection.

[0051] The overvoltage / overcurrent output caused by the explosion of the laboratory DC power supply. At this time, the DC output voltage and output current are uncontrollable and may far exceed the overvoltage / overcurrent output value caused by the open loop. The voltage detection circuit and the current detection circuit generate an error signal by comparing with the voltage and current set values. After the positive feedback circuit and the timing circuit, the MOS tube (Q3, Q4...) is driven first. The MOS tube (Q3, Q4...) changes from the off state to the on state, the output is short-circuited, and the output current flowing into the subsequent equipment or circuit is bypassed. Then the drive of the MOS tube (Q1, Q2...) is turned off, and the MOS tube (Q1, Q2...) changes from the on state to the off state, disconnecting the laboratory DC power supply output from the subsequent equipment or circuit, jointly ensuring the safety of the subsequent equipment and circuit, and transmitting the fault signal to the microcontroller to trigger the fault alarm. Since the output voltage and output current may far exceed the overvoltage / overcurrent output value caused by the open loop, the driver of the MOS tube (Q1, Q2...), the MOS tube (Q3, Q4...) and the fuse may be damaged. However, the joint protection mechanism can effectively protect the subsequent equipment or circuit from damage. At this time, the entire fault joint protection module needs to be replaced.

Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.

The information disclosed in the background technology section of this article is only intended to deepen the understanding of the overall background technology of the present invention, and should not be regarded as an admission or in any form that the information constitutes prior art known to those skilled in the art.
