Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of control circuits in subway trains, and particularly to a digital quantity acquisition circuit for subway trains. Background Art

[0002] There are a large number of digital quantity acquisition circuits in subway trains. Considering the power consumption problem of the digital quantity acquisition circuit, the general acquisition current is designed to be about 1 mA. The digital quantities inside the vehicle are generally output by relays. In order to prevent the contacts of the relays from oxidizing, there is a requirement for wet current of the contacts, which is generally greater than 5 mA. If the digital quantity acquisition circuit is designed with an acquisition current of more than 5 mA, the power consumption of a single channel will increase sharply, and the heat dissipation requirement cannot be met. At the same time, in the current wet current circuit, when the voltage changes, the magnitude of the wet current will also change accordingly, and the requirement for a constant wet current cannot be met.

[0003] Among them, a conventional digital quantity acquisition circuit of a subway train is as Figure 1 shown. The circuit is composed of T1, D2, R1, D1, U1, and R2. The functions of each component and interface in the schematic diagram are as follows: IN is the external digital quantity voltage input terminal, generally the external input voltage of a subway vehicle, and V_GND is the ground of the external digital quantity voltage. T1 is a TVS diode for overvoltage protection, which performs voltage clamping when the circuit withstands overvoltage and pulls the voltage down to a fixed value for the protection of the interface circuit. D2 is a rectifier diode, which makes the current of the circuit can only be input from the IN terminal. R1 is a current limiting diode, generally limiting the conduction current to about 1 - 2 mA. D1 is a zener diode, which is used to set the conduction threshold voltage. U1 is an optocoupler, which optically isolates the input side and the output side. R2 is a pull-down resistor, and VCC3V3 is the DC 3.3 V power supply for the output terminal. OUT is the low-voltage output terminal, generally directly connected to the controller. When U1 is not conducting, OUT outputs 0, and after U1 conducts, OUT outputs DC 3.3 V. The digital quantity acquisition circuit of the subway train currently cannot meet the wet current requirement. In order to meet the wet current requirement and at the same time reduce the acquisition power consumption of the circuit, some digital quantity acquisition circuits of subway trains adopt a time-sharing acquisition strategy.

[0004] Although the time-sharing acquisition can meet the wet current requirement, since the circuit is in the off state most of the time, this will reduce the resolution of the digital quantity acquisition result, and at the same time, it is very difficult to ensure that an effective wet current can be obtained at the moment when the relay contact is opened. At the same time, in the current wet current circuit, when the voltage changes, the magnitude of the wet current will also change accordingly, and the requirement for a constant wet current cannot be met. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention solves the problems of small and unstable wet current and high acquisition power consumption of the digital quantity acquisition circuit in the subway train without reducing the sampling rate. The specific technical solution is a digital quantity acquisition circuit for a subway train, including:

[0007] A wet current control circuit that is actively triggered by IN_CTR to form a controllable wet current when a wet current is required;

[0008] When the input voltage of the external digital quantity voltage input terminal IN is at a low level, the digital quantity acquisition circuit is not turned on, the low-voltage output terminal OUT outputs 0V, the digital quantity acquisition result is 0, IN_CTR is given 3.3V, and the wet current control circuit is not turned on;

[0009] When the IN input voltage is at a high level, the digital quantity acquisition circuit is turned on, the low-voltage output terminal OUT outputs 3.3V, and the digital quantity acquisition result is 1; IN_CTR is given 0V, the wet current control circuit is turned on to generate the required wet current. When the current output meets a certain time, IN_CTR is given 3.3V to turn off the wet current control circuit.

[0010] The digital quantity acquisition circuit includes a TVS diode T1 for overvoltage protection, a rectifier diode D2, a current-limiting diode R1, a voltage-regulating diode D1, an optocoupler U1, and a pull-down resistor R2. One end of the TVS diode T1 for overvoltage protection is grounded and the other end is connected to the rectifier diode D2. The rectifier diode D2 is connected to the current-limiting diode R1.

The fourth pin of the output end of the optocoupler U1 is connected to the 3.3V power supply voltage, and the third pin of the output end of the optocoupler U1 is the output signal of the digital quantity acquisition circuit; when the circuit withstands overvoltage, the TVS diode T1 for overvoltage protection clamps the voltage to a fixed value for protecting the interface circuit, and the voltage-regulating diode D1 is used to set the conduction threshold voltage.

[0011] The wet current control circuit includes a current-limiting resistor R3, an optocoupler U2, a voltage-dividing resistor R5, an NPN transistor Q1, a precision voltage reference source D3, and a current-limiting resistor R4. One end of the current-limiting resistor R3 is connected to the control terminal IN_CTR of the wet current, and the other end is connected to the optocoupler U2. The third pin of the output terminal of the optocoupler U2 is connected to the voltage-dividing resistor R5.

The emitter of the NPN transistor Q1 and the precision voltage reference source D3 are connected to the current-limiting resistor R4, and the other end of the current-limiting resistor R4 is grounded. The current-limiting resistor R3 is used to limit the input current of the optocoupler U2. The NPN transistor Q1 operates in the amplification region and is used for current setting and current bearing of the wet current circuit. When the circuit is turned on, the main wet current generated flows through the NPN transistor Q1. The voltage-dividing resistor R5 is used to bear the excess voltage across the precision voltage reference source D3. The voltage across the current-limiting resistor R4 is the reference voltage generated by the precision voltage reference source D3, and the current is the wet current of the circuit.

[0012] The current-limiting diode R1 limits the conduction current to 1 - 2 mA. The rectifier diode D2 is of the GS1010FL model, making the current of the circuit can only enter from the digital quantity voltage input terminal IN.

[0022] As Figure 1 shown, a digital quantity acquisition circuit for a subway train, the circuit includes a digital quantity acquisition circuit and a wet current control circuit; among them, the digital quantity acquisition circuit is the same as the conventional digital quantity acquisition circuit of the subway train, and can collect digital quantity signals of the subway train in real time with a relatively small current. In the case of needing wet current, the wet current control circuit can be actively triggered through IN_CTR to form a high-precision and controllable wet current.

[0023] When the IN input voltage is at a low level, the digital quantity acquisition circuit is not turned on, and the OUT terminal outputs 0V, that is, the digital quantity acquisition result is 0. When IN_CTR gives 3.3V, the wet current control circuit is not turned on.

[0024] When the IN input voltage is at a high level, the digital quantity acquisition circuit is turned on, and the OUT terminal outputs 3.3V, that is, the digital quantity acquisition result is 1. At this time, when IN_CTR gives 0V, the wet current control circuit is turned on to generate the required high-precision wet current. When the current output meets a certain time, IN_CTR gives 3.3V to turn off the wet current control circuit.

[0025] Further, the digital quantity acquisition circuit includes a TVS diode T1 for overvoltage protection, a rectifier diode D2, a current-limiting diode R1, a voltage-regulating diode D1, an optocoupler U1, and a pull-down resistor R2. One end of the TVS diode T1 for overvoltage protection is grounded and the other end is connected to the rectifier diode D2. The rectifier diode D2 is connected to the current-limiting diode R1. The current-limiting diode R1 is connected to the voltage-regulating diode D1. The voltage-regulating diode D1 is connected to the input end of the optocoupler U1. The output end of the optocoupler U1 is connected to the pull-down resistor R2. The fourth pin of the output end of the optocoupler U1 is connected to a 3.3V power supply voltage, and the third pin of the output end of the optocoupler U1 is the output signal of the digital quantity acquisition circuit.

[0026] The high level of the external digital quantity voltage input terminal IN is DC24V, and the low level is 0V. 24V_GND is the ground of the external digital quantity voltage. The model of the TVS diode T1 for overvoltage protection is SMCJ36CA, which performs voltage clamping when the circuit withstands overvoltage and pulls the voltage down to a fixed value of 36V for the protection of the interface circuit. The model of the rectifier diode D2 is GS1010FL, which enables the current of the circuit to only input from the IN terminal. The value of the current-limiting diode R1 is 20K, and the on-current of the acquisition circuit is limited to less than 1mA through this resistor, about 0.9mA in this circuit. The model of the voltage-regulating diode D1 is 1SMA4733-5.1V, which is used to set the conduction threshold voltage. When the voltage is lower than 5.1V, the circuit will not conduct.

[0027] Further, the wet current control circuit includes a current-limiting resistor R3, an optocoupler U2, a voltage-dividing resistor R5, an NPN transistor Q1, a precision voltage regulator D3, and a current-limiting resistor R4. One end of the current-limiting resistor R3 is connected to the control terminal IN_CTR of the wet current, and the other end is connected to the optocoupler U2. The third pin of the output terminal of the optocoupler U2 is connected to the voltage-dividing resistor R5.

The emitter of the NPN transistor Q1 and the precision voltage regulator D3 are connected to the current-limiting resistor R4, and the other end of the current-limiting resistor R4 is grounded. Here, OUT is the low-voltage output terminal and is directly connected to the microcontroller. When the optocoupler U1 is not conducting, OUT outputs 0, and when the optocoupler U1 conducts, OUT outputs DC3.3V. IN_CTR is the control terminal of the wet current. When IN_CTR is given DC3.3V, the wet current control circuit fails, and when IN_CTR is given 0V, the wet current control circuit is effective. The value of the current-limiting resistor R3 is 1K ohm, which is used to limit the input current of the optocoupler. The model of the NPN transistor Q1 is 2N3904, which operates in the amplification region and is used for current setting and current bearing of the wet current circuit. When the circuit conducts, the main wet current generated passes through Q1. The value of the voltage-dividing resistor R5 is 10K ohm, which is used to bear the excess voltage across D3. The precision voltage regulator D3 can output a precise reference power supply, and its model is TLP431. When a positive power supply is applied to pins 2 and 1, pin 3 can output a high-precision reference voltage of 2.5V.
