[0039] In order to realize batch open circuit detection of multiple lines, see Figures 1 to 3 The present application relates to a multi-line open circuit detection device, which determines whether there is an open circuit point in the line by collecting the electrical level at the detection point, and can detect multiple lines at the same time to improve the detection efficiency.
[0040] The multi-line open circuit detection device includes a DC-DC power supply unit 10 , a plurality of groups of high-level control switch units, a level acquisition unit 30 and a microcontroller 40 .
[0041] The DC-DC power supply unit 10 provides voltage for the multi-line open circuit detection device, and has a DC power input terminal and a DC power output terminal. The DC power input terminal receives an input voltage, and the DC power output terminal outputs an output voltage.
[0042] In some embodiments of the present application, the input voltage is higher than the output voltage, that is, the DC-DC power supply unit 10 steps down the voltage.
[0043] In the present application, multiple detection point open circuit detection is performed on multiple lines. Therefore, a group of high-level control switch units is set for each line, and the number of groups of high-level control switch units is the same as the number of multiple lines to be detected.
[0044] A group of high-level control switch units includes a plurality of high-level control switch units, and the number of the group of high-level control switch units is equal to the number of detection points on one line.
[0045] A free end of a line is connected to the input voltage, and multiple detection points are arranged in sequence along the line from the free end. The control end of each high-level control switch unit in each group is respectively connected to each detection point, and one end of each high-level control switch unit is respectively grounded and the other end is respectively connected to the output voltage.
[0046] For example, see Figure 2, with n lines (i.e., L1, L2, ..., Ln), and each line has m detection points (for example, the first line L1 has detection points P11, P12, P13, ..., P1i, ..., P1m), and has n groups of high-level control switch units (see Figure 2 A group of high-level control switch units 20 is shown in the figure, and each group of high-level control switch units has m high-level control switch units.
[0047] The high-level control switch unit can be selected as an NPN tube or an NMOS tube, which is used to be turned on when receiving a high level and turned off when receiving a low level.
[0048] In the present application, the high level control switch unit may select an NMOS tube.
[0049] For example, see Figure 3 A group of high-level control switch units 20 shown in FIG. 1 includes a high-level control switch unit Q11 , a high-level control switch unit Q12 , a high-level control switch unit Q13 , . . . , a high-level control switch unit Qnm.
[0050] In order to realize reliable open circuit detection for multiple lines, in some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 2 The DC-DC power supply unit 10 is a multi-channel low voltage linear regulator (ie, LDO), which has multiple DC power input terminals and multiple DC power output terminals corresponding to the multiple DC power input terminals.
[0051] The number of input / output terminals of the multi-channel LDO is greater than or equal to the number of groups of high-level control switch elements to ensure that each group of high-level control switches uses the same input voltage received by the DC power input terminal and the same output voltage output by the DC power output terminal.
[0052] The level acquisition unit 30 has a plurality of level acquisition terminals, the number of which is the same as the number of all detection points in the plurality of lines, and is used to determine whether there is an open point in the line according to the level acquired by each level acquisition terminal.
[0053] In order to facilitate the circuit layout, in some embodiments of the present application, the level acquisition unit 30 uses multiple level acquisition sub-units (see Figure 2 , which shows that one of the level acquisition subunits 31 is formed, each level acquisition subunit 31 can be an AD conversion unit, which outputs to the microcontroller 40 for processing and judgment.
[0054] The number of the multiple level collecting sub-units 31 may be the same as the number of the multiple lines.
[0055] For example, three lines (referred to as a first line L1, a second line L2, and a third line L3) are taken as an example for description.
[0056] See also Figure 2 If n=3, three detection points are arranged on each line, that is, a first detection point P11, a second detection point P12 and a third detection point P13 are sequentially arranged starting from a free end A on the first line L1, a first detection point P21, a second detection point P22 and a third detection point P23 are sequentially arranged starting from a free end B on the second line L2, and a first detection point P31, a second detection point P32 and a third detection point P33 are sequentially arranged starting from a free end C on the third line L3.
[0057] Furthermore, for the three lines, three level acquisition subunits are set, which are recorded as the first level acquisition subunit (ie, Figure 2 , a level acquisition subunit 31 shown in FIG. 1 ), a second level acquisition subunit and a third level acquisition subunit.
[0058] Each level collection subunit has a plurality of collection terminals, and the number of the plurality of collection terminals is the same as the number of detection points on a line.
[0059] Correspondingly, in order to accurately determine whether there is an open circuit point on the line, there is also an output terminal corresponding to each acquisition terminal, which is used to connect to the microcontroller 40.
[0060] Correspondingly, three DC input terminals (denoted as IN1, IN2 and IN3) and corresponding three DC output terminals (denoted as OUT1, OUT2 and OUT3) of the multi-channel LDO are used.
[0061] For each line, three high-level controlled switch units are used.
[0062] See also Figure 2 For the first line L1, a high-level control switch unit NMOS tube Q11, a high-level control switch unit NMOS tube Q12 and a high-level control switch unit NMOS tube Q13 are sequentially set corresponding to the first detection point P11, the second detection point P12 and the third detection point P13.
[0063] For the second line L2, high level control switch unit NMOS transistor Q21, high level control switch unit NMOS transistor Q22 and high level control switch unit NMOS transistor Q23 are sequentially set corresponding to the first detection point P21, the second detection point P22 and the third detection point P23.
[0064] For the third line L3, high level control switch unit NMOS transistor Q31, high level control switch unit NMOS transistor Q32 and high level control switch unit NMOS transistor Q33 are sequentially set corresponding to the first detection point P31, the second detection point P32 and the third detection point P33.
[0065] Correspondingly, three DC input terminals (denoted as IN1, IN2 and IN3) and corresponding three DC output terminals (denoted as OUT1, OUT2 and OUT3) of the multi-channel LDO are used.
[0066] The first level acquisition subunit includes a first acquisition terminal S11, a second acquisition terminal S12 and a third acquisition terminal S13; the second level acquisition subunit includes a first acquisition terminal S21, a second acquisition terminal S22 and a third acquisition terminal S23; the third level acquisition subunit includes a first acquisition terminal S31, a second acquisition terminal S32 and a third acquisition terminal S33.
[0067] The DC input terminal IN1 is connected to the free end A of the first line L1, the first detection point P11 is connected to the gate of the NMOS tube Q11, the source is grounded, and the drain is connected to the DC output terminal OUT1 and the first collection terminal S11 of the first level collection subunit; the second detection point P12 is connected to the gate of the NMOS tube Q12, the source is grounded, and the drain is connected to the DC output terminal OUT1 and the second collection terminal S12 of the first level collection subunit; the third detection point P13 is connected to the gate of the NMOS tube Q13, the source is grounded, and the drain is connected to the DC output terminal OUT1 and the third collection terminal S13 of the first level collection subunit.
[0068] The microcontroller 40 can determine which position between the free end A and the third detection point P13 has an open circuit according to the first detection point P11, the second detection point P12 and the third detection point P13 in the first line L1 by receiving the signal output by the first level acquisition subunit.
[0069] Assume that there is an open circuit between the first detection point P11 and the second detection point P12, and the NMOS tube Q11 is turned on. At this time, the first collection terminal S11 collects a low level, and the NMOS tube Q12 is turned off, so that the first collection terminal S11 collects a high level. Therefore, according to the signal collected by the collection terminal of the first level collection subunit, the microcontroller 40 can determine at which position in the first line L1 the open circuit occurs.
[0070] The microcontroller 40 can determine which position between the free end B and the third detection point P23 has an open circuit according to the first detection point P121, the second detection point P22 and the third detection point P23 in the second line L2 by receiving the signal output by the second level acquisition subunit.
[0071] Assume that there is an open circuit between the first detection point P22 and the second detection point P23, and the NMOS tube Q22 is turned on. At this time, the first collection terminal S21 collects a low level, and the NMOS tube Q22 is turned off, so that the first collection terminal S21 collects a high level. Therefore, according to the signal collected by the collection terminal of the second level collection subunit, the microcontroller 40 can determine at which position in the second line L2 the open circuit occurs.
[0072] Similarly, the microcontroller 40 determines which position in the third line L3 has an open circuit according to the signal collected by the third level collecting subunit.
[0073] In order to facilitate the arrangement of multiple groups of discrete high-level control switch units, in some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 3 , a test board 50 is provided.
[0074] The multiple groups of high-level control switch units as described above are arranged on the test board 50 .
[0075] And in order to facilitate the open circuit detection of multiple lines, see Figure 3 A connector 60 is also provided, and the connector 60 includes a male head (not shown) and a female head (not shown) for mating.
[0076] The connector 60 is connected between the test board 50 and the circuit to be tested.
[0077] The following description will be made by taking the male connector 60 connected to the test board 40 and the female connector 60 connected to the circuit to be tested as an example.
[0078] The male connector has a plurality of first connection terminals (not shown), and the female connector has a plurality of second connection terminals (not shown).
[0079] The plurality of first connection terminals are respectively connected to the gates of the high-level control switch units on the test board 50 , and the plurality of second connection terminals are respectively connected to the detection points of the circuits to be tested.
[0080] In this way, when the male connector of the connector 60 is connected to the female connector, the circuit to be tested is electrically connected to the test board 50 .
[0081] In the present application, the microcontroller 40 may be a single-chip processing chip.
