Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of cell testing, and specifically, relates to a cell testing system and a multi-stage boost speed control system. Background Art
[0002] With the popularization of new energy, lithium batteries are more and more widely used. Whether the quality of lithium batteries is qualified is directly related to safety issues. Therefore, it is necessary to test lithium batteries during the production process. In terms of structure, insulation should be maintained between the positive and negative electrodes of lithium-ion batteries, and between each electrode and the outer shell. In the production process of lithium-ion batteries, if metal foreign objects are mixed in or the separator is damaged, the insulation resistance will become lower. If the insulation state cannot be maintained, it will lead to a reduction in battery life or a fire accident.
[0003] To meet the needs of the electric vehicle industry, for the lithium-ion batteries installed in electric vehicles, it is required that the lithium-ion batteries have high energy density, can be charged with large current, have a long life, and are safe from catching fire. To achieve these characteristics, it is necessary to detect the performance of lithium-ion batteries during the production and manufacturing process. Currently, there are mainly two methods for testing lithium battery cells. The first method uses pulse testing. After charging the battery cell to a specified voltage, it stops, and then tests whether the battery voltage will drop rapidly. After reaching the test time, the cell is discharged. The second insulation testing method is to apply a specified voltage to the cell and then test its insulation resistance. Both of these testing methods use a high-voltage DC source, and have relatively high requirements for the voltage fluctuation of the high-voltage DC source output.
[0004] Before the lithium battery cell is filled with liquid, its equivalent model is a capacitor, and the capacitance values of equivalent capacitors of different capacities are different. The capacitance value of a small capacitor will cause overshoot of the high-voltage DC source output, and the voltage overshoot will cause a certain degree of damage to the cell. For a cell with a large capacitor, the boost speed is slow, which seriously affects the testing efficiency.
[0005] In addition, cells with the same capacity also have different performances at different boost speeds. When the cell is impacted by the instantaneous pulse method, the performance of metal ions on the internal separator under the action of a rapidly changing electric field force is also different.
[0006] The above information disclosed in this background art is only used to increase the understanding of the background art of the present application. Therefore, it may include prior art that is not known to those of ordinary skill in the art. Summary of the Invention

Among them, the gate voltage waveforms of MOS transistors Q7 and Q8 are as shown in Figure 5 shown.
[0061] When the capacitance of the load under test C4 is in the third capacitance range, the load is relatively large, and it is necessary to simultaneously adjust the switching frequencies of MOS transistors Q7 and Q8: control the power supply circuit to output a first voltage, control the first switching circuit to conduct, the second switching circuit to conduct, the third switching circuit to disconnect, and the fourth switching circuit to conduct; control MOS transistors Q7 and Q8 to turn on and off according to a second duty cycle, adjust the output voltage of the power supply circuit according to the capacitance of the load under test C4 until the voltage across the load under test C4 reaches the set voltage; since the load is relatively large and the voltage rise rate is slow, only by adjusting the switching frequencies of MOS transistors Q7 and Q8 can the set voltage be reached without overshoot.

[0080] The working process is as follows: The MCU control chip sends instructions through the MOS transistor drive circuit 1 to control the N-type MOS transistors Q1 and Q2 to disconnect. The MCU control chip sends instructions through the MOS transistor drive circuit 2 to control the N-type MOS transistors Q3 and Q4 to conduct. The MCU control chip sends instructions through the MOS transistor drive circuit 2 to control the N-type MOS transistors Q5 and Q6 to disconnect. The MCU control chip sends instructions through the MOS transistor drive circuit 3 to control the N-type MOS transistor Q11 to disconnect. The electrical structure at this time is as Figure 2 Schematic diagram of a new flyback bus structure for a high-voltage output speed control system.
[0081] The MCU control chip sends instructions to control the BUCK-BOOST power supply circuit to output a voltage of 24V. Then, the MCU control chip sends instructions to control the EG1160 MOS transistor driver to drive the N-type MOS transistor Q8 to conduct for 5 us and then turn off for 245 us. According to the structural characteristics of the flyback switch, the voltage across the load to be measured C4 will increase. At the same time, there is current flowing through the current measuring resistor R2.
[0082] The voltage measurement circuit 2 transfers the real-time voltage V of the load to be measured C4 to the ADC chip. The current measurement circuit measures the current I across the current measuring resistor R2 and transfers it to the ADC chip in real time. The ADC chip sends the current I and the voltage V to the MCU control chip. The MCU control chip calculates the load capacitance value according to the following formula:
[0083] where C is the capacitance of the load to be measured C4, and t represents time.
[0084] The MCU control chip calculates the capacitance value of the load C4 to be measured and adjusts the structure and combination mode of the bus voltage according to the peak voltage set by the user.
[0085] 1. The capacitance value of the load C4 to be measured is between 0.01 uf and 0.5 uf.
[0086] The MCU control chip sends instructions to control the output voltage of the BUCK - BOOST power circuit to be 24V. The MCU control chip sends instructions through the MOS tube drive circuit 1 to control the N - type MOS tubes Q1 and Q2 to disconnect. The MCU control chip sends instructions through the MOS tube drive circuit 2 to control the N - type MOS tubes Q3 and Q4 to conduct. The MCU control chip sends instructions through the MOS tube drive circuit 2 to control the N - type MOS tubes Q5 and Q6 to disconnect. The MCU control chip sends instructions through the MOS tube drive circuit 3 to control the N - type MOS tube Q11 to disconnect. At this time, the electrical structure is in the flyback bus structure, and its equivalent electrical structure diagram is as Figure 2 shown. The MCU control chip adapts to different loads by sending instructions to control the duty cycle of the PWM signal output by the EG1160MOS drive chip to drive the N - type MOS tube Q8. At this time, it adopts Figure 4 shown.
[0087] 2. The capacitance value of the load C4 to be measured is between 0.5 uf and 20 uf.
[0088] The MCU control chip sends instructions through the MOS tube drive circuit 1 to control the N - type MOS tubes Q1 and Q2 to conduct. The MCU control chip sends instructions through the MOS tube drive circuit 2 to control the N - type MOS tubes Q3 and Q4 to disconnect. The MCU control chip sends instructions through the MOS tube drive circuit 2 to control the N - type MOS tubes Q5 and Q6 to conduct. The MCU control chip sends instructions through the MOS tube drive circuit 3 to control the N - type MOS tube Q11 to conduct. At this time, the electrical structure is in the half - bridge bus structure, and its equivalent electrical structure diagram is as Figure 3 shown. The MCU control chip controls the EG1160MOS drive chip to output and drive the N - type MOS tubes Q7 and Q8 to conduct alternately. The 24V DC voltage is converted into AC, and after being doubled by the transformer, it passes through the H - bridge structure composed of the rectifier diodes D1, D2, D3, and D4 to output DC high voltage. The conduction time of the N - type MOS tubes Q7 and Q8 and the completely closed time of the N - type MOS tubes Q7 and Q8 are in a fixed ratio, as Figure 6As shown in the figure. The MCU control chip sends instructions to control the output voltage of the BUCK-BOOST power circuit to vary between 24V and 48V to adapt to different loads. When the output voltage reaches 80% of the set voltage, at this time, the MCU control chip controls the MOS transistor drive circuit 1, MOS transistor drive circuit 2, and MOS transistor drive circuit 3 by sending instructions to control each N-type MOS to adjust the bus structure to Figure 2 state. The voltage waveforms of the gates of the N-type MOS transistor Q7 and the N-type MOS transistor Q8 are as Figure 5 shown, which can effectively prevent overshoot.
[0089] 3. The capacitance value of the load capacitor is greater than 20 μF.
[0090] The MCU control chip sends instructions to control the output voltage of the BUCK-BOOST power circuit to be 24V. The MCU control chip sends instructions to control the N-type MOS transistor Q1 and the N-type MOS transistor Q2 to conduct through the MOS transistor drive circuit 1. The MCU control chip sends instructions to control the N-type MOS transistor Q3 and the N-type MOS transistor Q4 to disconnect through the MOS transistor drive circuit 2. The MCU control chip sends instructions to control the N-type MOS transistor Q5 and the N-type MOS transistor Q6 to conduct through the MOS transistor drive circuit 2. The MCU control chip sends instructions to control the N-type MOS transistor Q11 to conduct through the MOS transistor drive circuit 3. At this time, the electrical structure is in a half-bridge bus structure, and its equivalent electrical structure diagram is as Figure 3 shown. The MCU control chip controls the EG1160 MOS drive chip to output and drive the N-type MOS transistor Q7 and the N-type MOS transistor Q8 by sending instructions, in an alternating conduction manner, to convert the 24V DC voltage into AC. After being doubled in voltage by the transformer, it passes through the H-bridge structure composed of the rectifier diodes D1, rectifier diode D2, rectifier diode D3, and rectifier diode D4 to output a DC high voltage. By adjusting the ratio of the alternating conduction time of the N-type MOS transistor Q7 and the N-type MOS transistor Q8 to the time when the N-type MOS transistor Q7 and the N-type MOS transistor Q8 are completely turned off, to adapt to different loads. The voltage waveforms of the N-type MOS transistor Q7 and the N-type MOS transistor Q8 at the gates are as Figure 6 shown.
[0091] The user can set the maximum rising voltage for each step. The MCU control chip can monitor the output voltage value in real time through the voltage measurement circuit 2. The MCU-controlled chip calculates the maximum value for the next voltage boost based on the current voltage value and the maximum rising voltage for each step. The MCU sends the calculated value to the DAC chip, and the DAC chip converts it into an analog quantity and transmits it to the non-inverting input terminal of the comparator A2. When the voltage measurement circuit 2 transmits the voltage value at the output terminal to the inverting input terminal of the comparator A2, and when the voltage value at the non-inverting input terminal of the comparator A2 is lower than the voltage value at its inverting input terminal, the comparator A2 outputs a signal to the MOS tube driving circuit 3 to turn off the N-type MOS tube Q9, thus stopping charging C4. Until the next time the MCU control chip sends a new upper limit value, the N-type MOS tube Q9 is turned on again.
[0092] After the N-type MOS tube Q9 is turned off, all the electrical energy output by the transformer will go into the overshoot prevention capacitor C3. If the voltage across the overshoot prevention capacitor C3 is higher than the voltage across C4, it will lose the function of preventing overshoot. To prevent the voltage across the overshoot prevention capacitor C3 from rising, it needs to be discharged. The MCU control chip can monitor the voltage value across the overshoot prevention capacitor C3 in real time through the voltage measurement circuit 1. The MCU-controlled chip calculates the maximum value for the next voltage boost based on the current voltage value and the maximum rising voltage for each step. The MCU sends the calculated value to the DAC chip, and the DAC chip converts it into an analog quantity and transmits it to the non-inverting input terminal of the comparator A1. When the voltage measurement circuit 1 transmits the voltage value at the output terminal to the inverting input terminal of the comparator A1, and when the voltage value at the non-inverting input terminal of the comparator A1 is lower than the voltage value at its inverting input terminal, the comparator A1 controls the N-type MOS tube Q10 to turn on. The electrical energy inside the overshoot prevention capacitor C3 is released through the resistor R1 until the voltage value at the non-inverting input terminal of the comparator A1 is higher than the voltage value at its inverting input terminal, at which point the comparator A1 controls the MOS tube Q10 to disconnect.
[0093] When the voltage across C4 reaches the set voltage, the MCU control chip sends a command to the EG1160 MOS driver chip to control the N-type MOS tubes Q7 and Q8 to disconnect, stopping the output. C4 is in the self-discharge stage. The voltage measurement circuit 2 measures the voltage drop value during the self-discharge stage of C4. If the drop value is lower than 10% of the set voltage, the load under test meets the requirements; otherwise, it does not. After the test is completed, the MCU control chip sends data to the DAC chip, and the DAC chip outputs a low-voltage analog quantity to control the comparator A1 to drive the MOS tube Q10 to turn on, releasing all the electrical energy in C3 and C4.
[0094] Among them, the load under test is an electric core, for example, a lithium battery electric core.
[0095] Such as Figure 7As shown, it is a test waveform diagram of three different loads to be measured. Among them, the first load < the second load < the third load. It can be seen from the figure that the time differences for the three high loads to reach the set voltage of 200V are very small. The first load is a light load with a fast rising voltage but no overshoot. The third load is heavy, but the time it takes to reach the set voltage has a very small difference from that of the first load. None of the three loads exceed the set voltage during the voltage rising process.
