[0002] Near-zero magnetic field environments have unique applications in quantum precision measurement, magnetometer calibration and testing, and biomagnetic field measurement. A strictly defined zero magnetic field environment requires a spatial magnetic field strength of exactly zero. However, in engineering practice, due to physical limitations such as geomagnetic field shielding technology and material permeability, only extremely low magnetic field environments can be practically achieved. As research progresses, the requirements for near-zero magnetic fields are constantly increasing, placing higher demands on the devices providing these environments and their driving components. This places higher demands on the driving components of the devices, specifically the need for active magnetic field compensation to achieve a near-zero magnetic field environment.

[0003] Helmholtz coils are the most commonly used active magnetic compensation devices for generating a uniform magnetic field within a certain spatial range. Therefore, the Helmholtz coil in the drive system of a magnetic compensation device is a crucial link in achieving precise magnetic compensation. To obtain a high-precision and stable adjustable magnetic field, a high-performance drive system is required, including a high-precision power supply circuit and a stable and reliable current source circuit. Therefore, high-precision and highly stable current source circuits and power supply circuits are essential for generating a high-quality magnetic field. Currently, commonly used magnetic field drive systems are built from various commercially available devices, resulting in large size and fixed functions. Furthermore, to meet the requirements for near-zero magnetic fields, expensive specialized equipment is needed, such as providing a clock signal through an additional highly stable clock reference.

[0077] Specifically, such as Figure 4 The auxiliary power supply circuit of the power module shown outputs 24V and two 15V voltage rails. These are then converted to isolated ±12V and 3.3V voltages via a Cuk circuit, a Boost circuit, and an LDO (Low Dropout Linear Regulator) circuit to power the chips in the entire system. The AP method is used to select the EFD25 magnetic core as the transformer core for the flyback circuit. The specific turns ratio, wire diameter, and winding method are calculated based on the set input / output power, operating frequency, flux density change, and current density. A DC-DC converter circuit converts the isolated 24V to ±12V. First, a Cuk circuit and a Buck circuit convert it to ±15V, and then an LDO converts it to ±12V and 3.3V.

[0078] In some embodiments of this application, the current signal acquisition circuit includes:

[0084] The DAC connects to the ARM microcontroller via the SPI protocol.

[0085] In some embodiments of this application, each of the four parallel MOSFETs constructs an independent feedback control loop with an operational amplifier and a precision sampling resistor, resulting in a total output current instability of 13ppm and short-term fluctuations of less than 300μA.

[0086] The digital control module is based on an ARM microcontroller and integrates a 16-bit precision digital-to-analog converter, a 16-bit precision analog-to-digital converter, and a reference chip. It adjusts the current setpoint in real time through a PID algorithm to form a closed-loop control. The lower-level computer communicates with the digital control module through the IIC protocol and displays the system's operating status and output current parameters in real time on its OLED screen. It can also set and read the current setpoint and actual value in real time.

[0087] In some embodiments of this application, the constant current structure further includes:

[0088] A compensation circuit, wherein the compensation circuit is constructed by resistors in each constant current structure, is used to improve the loop stability of the current source;

[0089] An active cooling structure, including a heat sink and a fan, is used to reduce thermal noise.

[0090] Specifically, such as Figure 5 The constant current source module shown consists of an operational amplifier, a MOSFET, and a sampling resistor in each channel. The four channels are connected in parallel and a compensation circuit is added. The output current signal is finally collected by the total sampling resistor. Meanwhile, the digital control module is based on an ARM microcontroller and integrates a 16-bit precision digital-to-analog converter, a 16-bit precision analog-to-digital converter, and a reference chip.

[0092] The auxiliary power supply is used to output ±12V / 1A, 15V / 0.1A and 3.3V / 1A;

[0093] The dual-terminal forward converter is used to provide a 42V voltage and a maximum current of 7A. It adopts a peak current mode loop control method and controls the loop stability through a compensation network.

Compared with the traditional single-channel solution, it can improve the output power and improve the accuracy. The compensation circuit is embedded in the independent feedback control loop to improve the loop phase margin, effectively suppress the oscillation risk and improve the system stability. At the same time, the active heat dissipation structure (heat sink + fan) controls the MOSFET temperature rise within a safe range, reducing the impact of thermal noise on current stability.
