Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of electronic measurement technology, and more specifically, to a method for testing high-value resistances using a variable square wave excitation dual feedback loop. Background Technology
[0002] In fields such as electronics and materials science, accurate measurement of high-resistance resistors is crucial. For example, (1) in semiconductor device manufacturing, precise measurement of the resistance of insulating layers is required to evaluate their performance. (2) in materials science: the volume resistivity and surface resistivity of insulating materials (plastics, ceramics, glass, composites) are key indicators for evaluating their insulation performance. (3) in electronic components: insulation resistance of capacitors, insulation performance of connectors, verification of high-resistance resistors, etc. (4) in electrochemistry: studying the conductivity of electrolytes (actually measuring the reciprocal of their high resistance). (5) in electrostatic protection: evaluating the resistance characteristics of antistatic materials and devices.
[0003] Traditional high-resistance measuring instruments face several major difficulties in measuring such high resistance values: (1) Weak current detection: According to Ohm's law (R = V / I), when a reasonable voltage is applied (to avoid breakdown), the current flowing through the high resistance is extremely weak (pA, fA or even lower). It is very difficult to accurately measure such a small current, which is easily overwhelmed by noise (thermal noise, shot noise, 1 / f noise), external interference (electromagnetic interference, electrostatic interference) and the input bias current / input noise of the measuring instrument itself. (2) Polarization effect: For some materials (especially those containing ions or electrochemically active), the long-term application of DC voltage will cause the accumulation of internal charge (polarization) in the material, causing the measured current to drift over time, resulting in inaccurate and unstable measurement results. (3) Influence of test fixtures and leads: The insulation resistance of the test fixtures, the resistance of the leads (although they have little effect on the high resistance itself, they have an effect on the measurement circuit), and the distributed capacitance between leads and between leads and ground will introduce errors and delays, especially in AC or transient measurements. (4) Thermal noise: High resistance itself generates significant Johnson-Nyquist thermal noise, which limits the smallest detectable current signal.
[0004] High-resistance measurement faces severe challenges such as weak current, polarization, noise, and leakage. Traditional DC methods are plagued by polarization and low-frequency noise; AC methods are complex and limited at high frequencies; integration methods are time-consuming and have limited dynamic range; while the standard four-wire method eliminates lead resistance, it does not solve the core detection problems and protection requirements.

[0037] Specifically, the gain calculation formula for the differential amplifier composed of operational amplifier U6 and resistors Rd1, Rd2, Rd3, and Rd4 is as follows: .
[0038] In one embodiment of the present invention, a method for testing high-value resistance using a variable square wave excitation dual feedback loop is described in the following detail: (1) A constant DC voltage Vpulse with alternating positive and negative values is generated by a DAC voltage source. The specific frequency, duty cycle, and voltage value can be adjusted according to actual test requirements, such as generating a square wave of 1kHz and ±10V. Under the drive of the alternating positive and negative square wave voltage source, the entire circuit generates bidirectional current excitation through the current loop to sample high-value resistors. Its core advantage is that it significantly suppresses low-frequency noise and DC drift, thereby improving the accuracy and stability of the measurement. The following is a detailed analysis: 1) Eliminate DC bias error and drift: Under pure DC excitation, the amplifier's input offset voltage, temperature drift, and time drift will be superimposed on the measurement signal, forming a fixed error. However, bidirectional current alternating excitation modulates the resistance signal into an AC signal, and the pure resistance signal is separated by the sampling end synchronous demodulation technology, thus canceling the amplifier's DC error.
[0039] 2) Suppress 1 / f low-frequency noise: The 1 / f noise of electronic devices is concentrated in the low-frequency range (<100Hz), which seriously affects the accuracy of DC measurement. Positive and negative excitation will shift the effective signal spectrum to the vicinity of the excitation frequency (such as 1kHz), avoid the low-frequency region dominated by 1 / f noise, and then suppress the noise significantly through bandpass filtering.
[0040] 3) Reduce thermoelectric effect error: The Joule heat generated when current flows through the resistor will form a thermoelectric potential, which appears as a slowly drifting spurious voltage in DC measurement. Positive and negative current excitation makes the thermoelectric potential appear symmetrically in the positive and negative cycles, and its influence can be canceled by differential calculation.
[0041] 4) Resistance to power supply and ground interference: DC measurement is susceptible to common-mode interference such as power supply ripple and ground fluctuation. AC excitation combined with differential amplification and synchronous detection can suppress interference that is not related to the excitation frequency (such as 50Hz power frequency noise).
[0042] (2) The square wave excitation voltage Vpulse is connected to the voltage loop. The following is a detailed analysis: 1) The feedback resistor R1 and integrating capacitor C1 of the integrating operational amplifier U2 provide phase compensation for U2: In the voltage feedback loop, when the loop gain lags by more than -180° at the cutoff frequency, a lead compensation network needs to be added. This network compensates for the phase lag of U2 through R1 and C1 at the cutoff frequency. Add a zero-point adjustment phase margin to prevent voltage loop oscillation.
[0043] Resistors R2 and R3 form a voltage divider circuit, making .
[0044] 2) The non-inverting proportional operational circuit consists of operational amplifier U3, resistors R4 and R5, making... The output of U3 is the high-side excitation output "HForce" of the test circuit, which is connected to the high-side induction output "HSense" via a test cable. This is the positive input terminal of the operational amplifier U1 in the voltage follower circuit, enabling... It provides a feedback path for the voltage loop.
[0045] 3) In the integrating circuit, the positive input terminal of operational amplifier U2 is connected to "ground" and has a voltage of 0V. Since the voltage at the positive input terminal of U2 is equal to the voltage at the negative input terminal, the voltage at V1 in the diagram is 0V. According to the node voltage formula: We can obtain: .
[0046] 4) Due to the effect of the voltage follower operational amplifier circuit U1, it makes... Since U1 is virtually open, the current at the positive input terminal of U1 is 0. This means that all the current generated by the "HForce" terminal flows into the resistor being measured, Rx, causing... .
[0047] (3) The output of the voltage loop is connected to the resistor under test via a test cable. The following is a detailed analysis: 1) The equivalent resistance value of the high-side excitation output "HForce" of the test cable is Rw3; the equivalent resistance value of the high-side induction output "HSense" of the test cable is Rw1; the equivalent resistance value of the low-side excitation output "LForce" of the test cable is Rw2; and the equivalent resistance value of the low-side induction output "LSense" of the test cable is Rw4. The voltage across the resistor Rx being measured is Vx+ and Vx-.
[0048] 3) The four-wire measurement method eliminates the influence of lead resistance, separating excitation and detection: the measured resistor Rx is connected in series with the sampling resistor Rb, and the excitation current Is is provided by the voltage loop. Voltage detection is sampled by the current loop, avoiding the influence of lead resistance.
[0049] (4) The test cable is connected to the current loop. The following is a detailed analysis: 1) In the integrating circuit, the positive input terminal of operational amplifier U5 is connected to ground (0V). Since the voltage at the positive and negative input terminals of U5 is equal, the voltage at V8 in the diagram is 0V. When the integration of U5 stabilizes, the current flowing through the "LSense" terminal is 0. .
[0050] 2) The voltage follower circuit is enabled by operational amplifier U4. .
[0051] 3) The sampling resistor provides a feedback path for the current loop; the test current is generated by resistor Rx. After flowing through the equivalent resistance value Rw2 of "LForce", it flows into the sampling resistor Rb, and the current across resistor Rb is... ,because ,so ,Right now .
[0052] (5) The current loop output is connected to the differential amplifier. The following is a detailed analysis: 1) Formula for calculating the gain of the differential amplifier composed of operational amplifier U6 and resistors Rd1, Rd2, Rd3, and Rd4: .
[0053] 2) The main advantages of differential amplifier circuits are: suppression of zero-point drift: it can effectively suppress output voltage drift caused by factors such as temperature changes and power supply fluctuations, and improve circuit stability; strong anti-common-mode interference capability: it has a strong suppression effect on common-mode signals (such as external interference), while it can amplify differential-mode signals (useful signals) normally.
[0054] (6) The differential amplifier output is connected to the sampling terminal Vsample. The following is a detailed analysis: The sampling end includes, but is not limited to, filtering circuits, signal amplification and processing circuits, and analog voltage signal acquisition. Analog voltage signal acquisition can be accomplished by an ADC or equivalent circuits.
[0055] In summary, the high-value resistance testing method of this invention, using a variable square wave excitation dual feedback loop, achieves high-precision weak current detection and stable voltage control through a precise dual feedback loop, and provides a foundation for efficient protection based on a four-wire structure, thereby enabling faster, more stable, and more accurate measurement of extremely high resistance values.
