[0060] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

In addition, if there are descriptions of "first", "second", etc. in the embodiments of the present application, the descriptions of "first", "second", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" can explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. In addition, if "and / or" or "and / or" appears in the full text, its meaning includes three parallel schemes. Taking "A and / or B" as an example, it includes scheme A, scheme B, or schemes that satisfy both A and B. In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but they must be based on the fact that they can be implemented by ordinary technicians in this field. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by this application.

[0062] As the power and performance of lasers gradually increase, more and higher requirements are put forward for laser technical indicators and test items. In order to meet the development needs of lasers, the main control board is also being continuously developed and updated, and the electrical performance test of lasers is also being continuously updated and improved.

[0063] At present, the way to test the electrical performance of the main control board suitable for the laser is to first install the updated main control board to be tested on the real laser to obtain the real laser after the replacement and system upgrade, and then use the laser test equipment to test it. Specifically, the laser is connected to the test equipment through an external control signal line, and the test equipment is used to control the laser, so that the laser is in the external control mode to perform various tests. In this process, there are the following problems:

[0064] 1. The main control board must be installed in a real laser, and the optimized and upgraded main control board cannot be tested separately;

[0065] 2. The external control signal lines are not fixed and integrated. There are many types and quantities of signals on the wiring terminals, which makes it difficult for workers to quickly identify each signal and fix the external control signal lines. It will also cause collisions between the wiring terminals and cause short circuits, which is not conducive to operation and experiments in workshops and laboratories. In particular, there are safety hazards and affect test efficiency in harsh environments such as production lines.

[0066] 2. During the test, the main control board of the laser is in external control mode, which requires the use of multiple switch devices and programmable power supplies, and the number required is high, resulting in cumbersome control process of the laser;

[0067] 3. It is not possible to input complex signals in multiple modes and synchronously monitor the status of all output signals of the laser, and cannot meet the different test requirements of the corresponding externally controlled increasingly complex electrical performance test items;

[0068] 4. The input and output displays of many key signals are difficult to achieve, which brings inconvenience to the test and further affects the test efficiency.

[0069] In view of the above problems, the present application provides a laser main control board performance test system and test tooling. The present application and the following embodiments are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0070] The present application proposes a laser main control board performance testing system.

[0071] In one embodiment of the present application, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 The present invention is a system block diagram of an embodiment of a laser main control board performance test system. The laser main control board performance test system includes a power supply analog input circuit, a host computer analog control circuit, a light output analog feedback circuit, a light output detection circuit and a signal processing circuit. The power supply analog input circuit, the host computer analog control circuit and the light output analog feedback circuit are respectively connected to the main control board to be tested, the light output detection circuit is connected to the light output analog feedback circuit, and the signal processing circuit is connected to the light output detection circuit.

[0072] Among them, the power simulation input circuit is used to simulate the power input of a real laser, provide a power signal to the main control board to be tested, and make the main control board to be tested work; the host computer simulation control circuit is used to simulate the host computer that controls the real laser, and send control instructions to the main control board to be tested, so that the main control board to be tested generates a light control signal; the light simulation feedback circuit is used to simulate the light emission and light feedback of a real laser, generate a light current according to the light control signal output by the main control board to be tested, and detect the light current to obtain a light feedback signal, and send it to the main control board to be tested, so that the main control board to be tested performs post-processing; the light detection circuit is used to collect the light power of the simulated laser and output a power feedback signal; the signal processing circuit is used to perform signal processing according to the power feedback signal, obtain the test results and display them.

[0073] It should be noted that the laser main control board refers to a control board suitable for the laser. This system is a test system (ETS: Engineering Test System) for testing various performances of the laser main control board, such as testing the light control function, data acquisition function, etc., which are not specifically limited here. The power supply analog input circuit, the upper computer analog control circuit, the light output analog feedback circuit, the light output detection circuit and the signal processing circuit can be a circuit structure composed of various electronic devices, or a circuit structure composed of an integrated chip and peripheral devices, which are not specifically limited here.

[0074] It should also be noted that after the power supply analog input circuit supplies power to the main control board to be tested and the host computer analog control circuit issues control instructions to the main control board to be tested, the main control board to be tested can enter normal operation and generate control signals in response to the control instructions, such as light control signals, display control signals, etc. Because when a real laser emits light, its photoelectric sensor will detect the light current, and use this to determine whether the laser emits light normally. According to this principle, the system receives the light control signal output by the main control board to be tested through the light simulation feedback circuit, generates a corresponding light current, and then detects the light current to generate a light feedback signal, which is returned to the main control board to be tested, so that the main control board to be tested can perform post-processing according to the light feedback signal to complete various operations related to the performance to be tested of the main control board to be tested. It can be seen that the power supply analog input circuit, the host computer analog control circuit, the light simulation feedback circuit, and the main control board to be tested form a simulated laser. On this basis, the light output power of the simulated laser is collected by using the light output detection circuit, and then the signal processing circuit is used to process the signal to obtain the test results and display them, completing various performance tests on the main control board of the simulated laser, that is, the main control board to be tested, which can meet the electrical performance test requirements of different laser main control boards. Therefore, the system can control, verify and test various switch signals of the simulated laser based on the main control board to be tested, to verify the performance of the main control board to be tested, to see whether the various signal levels are abnormal, and whether the implemented functions are operating normally. It can completely replace the real laser and test the main control board suitable for the laser with the circuit structure alone.

[0075] The laser main control board performance test system provided in this embodiment simulates the power input of a real laser through a power simulation input circuit, provides a power signal to the main control board to be tested, and makes the main control board to be tested work; simulates the host computer that controls the real laser through the host computer simulation control circuit, sends a control instruction to the main control board to be tested, so that the main control board to be tested generates a light control signal; simulates the light emission and light emission feedback of the real laser through the light emission simulation feedback circuit; generates a light emission current according to the light emission control signal output by the main control board to be tested, and detects the light emission current to obtain a light emission feedback signal and sends it to the main control board to be tested, so that the main control board to be tested performs post-processing, thereby building a simulated laser; and then through the light emission detection circuit The circuit collects the light output power of the simulated laser, outputs the power feedback signal, processes the signal through the signal processing circuit, obtains the test results and displays them; in this system, a simulated laser is constructed based on the main control board to be tested and a simple circuit structure. It is not necessary to install the main control board to be tested on the real laser or connect other external control devices for testing. The signal lines in the system have been fixed and integrated, effectively avoiding safety hazards such as short circuits caused by too many terminals and problems that affect test efficiency, and achieving the effect of quick performance testing of the main control board based on the simulated laser; at the same time, the system can be applied to the test environment of various laser main control boards, improving the test adaptability and integration of the system. The system can improve the test efficiency of the laser main control board and the safety of the test environment, improve the test conditions, and conduct tests more safely, reliably and efficiently.

[0076] In another embodiment of the present application, refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a system block diagram of another embodiment of a laser main control board performance test system. The system may also include a panel simulation operation circuit, which is connected to the main control board to be tested.

[0077] Among them, the panel simulation operation circuit is used to simulate the front panel of a real laser, send operation instructions to the main control board to be tested, manually control the simulated laser, and display the operating status of the simulated laser in real time according to the display control signal output by the main control board to be tested.

[0078] It should be noted that the real laser has a front panel, and manual control is achieved by the user operating the panel. For the simulated laser in this system, because it is composed of multiple circuit structures and the main control board to be tested, the input and output actions of various key signals of the simulated laser cannot be intuitively reflected, so the panel simulation operation circuit is added, and a manually controlled simulation panel and the status display of related signals are added to the simulated laser, which makes it convenient for testers to clearly know the status of key signals in the simulated laser, brings a lot of convenience to the test, and can further improve the test efficiency. Among them, the panel simulation operation circuit can be a circuit structure composed of various electronic devices, or it can be a circuit structure composed of integrated chips and peripheral devices, which is not specifically limited here.

[0079] The laser main control board performance test system provided in this embodiment can input complex signals in multiple modes and synchronously monitor the status of all output signals of the laser, and can meet the test requirements of increasingly complex electrical performance test items of corresponding external control.

[0080] In one possible implementation, refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the principle of the power supply analog input circuit in this embodiment. The power supply analog input circuit may include a voltage conversion module, a first male socket module, a first switching module, a second switching module and a power status module. The first male socket module is connected to the main control board to be tested, and the first switching module, the second switching module and the power status module are respectively connected to the first male socket module.

[0081] Among them, the voltage conversion module is used to step down the received power supply voltage, output working voltages of different voltage values, and supply power to various circuits or modules in the system; the first switching module is used to turn on or off the ACDC power supply of the analog laser, and output a first state signal to the main control board to be tested; the second switching module is used to turn on or off the DCDC power supply of the analog laser, and output a second state signal to the main control board to be tested; the power supply status module is used to receive the indication control signal output by the main control board to be tested to indicate the power-on status of the analog laser.

[0082] It should be noted that the voltage conversion module can be connected to each circuit that needs power supply or a module in each circuit that needs power supply, and can be specifically configured according to needs, which is not specifically limited here.

The isolator includes coils L3 and L4, performs isolation conversion on the working voltage DC_5V, and outputs the working voltage AUX_5V. One end of S11 receives the working voltage DC_5V, and the other end is connected to the main control board to be tested through the first male socket module.

[0084] The first male connector module includes a straight male connector J1, which exchanges information with the main control board to be tested; J1 is connected to the voltage conversion module to connect it to the power supply voltage 24V_IN; the other end of S11 is connected to the READY pin of J1 to provide the working voltage AUX_5V to the main control board to be tested, simulating the main power supply of the real laser to be powered on; J1 is connected to the interface J2 to provide CAN communication of DCDC power supply to the main control board to be tested.

[0085] The first switching module includes a switch S9, a first end of S9 receives an operating voltage AUX_5V through a resistor R6, a second end of S9 is connected to a pin ACDC_AC_OK of J1, and a third end of S9 is grounded through a resistor R7. For example, when the AC / DC power supply needs to be turned on, S9 is turned to the first end, and the output first state signal is 5V, which is a high level.

For example, when the DCDC power supply needs to be turned on, S10 is turned to the first end, and the output second state signal is 5V, which is a high level.

[0087] The power status module includes an ACDC power indicator light D9 and a DCDC power indicator light D10. The positive electrode of D9 is connected to the ACDC_ON / OFF pin of J1 through a resistor R4, and the negative electrode of D9 is grounded.
