Abstract

This invention discloses an unmodulated high-speed near-field infrared receiving circuit and optimization method for electricity meters, including: obtaining the time from infrared signal generation to the base action of the transistor, obtaining the rise and fall times of the waveform at the hardware receiving end, determining the communication rate influencing factor, and adding a clamping circuit. In this scheme, by calculating the time from infrared signal generation to the base action of the amplifying transistor and the rise and fall times of the waveform at the hardware receiving end, it is determined that the operation time of the infrared receiving transistor itself is the most influential factor on the communication rate. By adding a clamping diode, the voltage of the emitter stage when the infrared receiving transistor is turned on is changed from the original voltage divider on the grounding resistor R905 to the sum of the conduction voltage of the clamping diode VD901 and the collector and emitter voltages of the amplifying transistor VT902. This reduces the voltage at the point of conduction, decreases the charging and discharging time at that point, and thus greatly reduces the operation time of the infrared receiving transistor, thereby improving the communication rate.
