Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of current sampling, and more specifically to a shunt current sampling circuit. Background Art

[0002] The shunt current sampling circuit is widely used due to its simple circuit and low cost. When used in high current scenarios, the resistance of the shunt is small due to the power consumption limit, and multiple parallel connections are required. The schematic diagram is as follows Figure 1 As shown. Figure 1 As shown, shunts R1, R2, and R3 are connected in parallel, and the current sampling module 100 is connected at both ends of the shunts R1, R2, and R3. However, when this shunt current sampling circuit is actually laid out on a PCB, the copper sheet width is wide under high current conditions and the shunt resistance is small. The PCB copper sheet impedance cannot be ignored, which will cause uneven current between shunts and affect the accuracy of current sampling. Therefore, its equivalent circuit is as follows: Figure 2 shown.

[0003] like Figure 2 As shown, the PCB equivalent impedance from the device pad to the shunts R1, R2, and R3 is Rs1, Rs2, and Rs3, and the total current is I. I1, I2, and I3 are the currents flowing through the shunts R1, R2, and R3, respectively. Figure 2 It can be seen that the distance between the shunt R2 and the pad is the shortest, so the corresponding PCB equivalent impedance Rs2 is smaller than the PCB equivalent impedance Rs1 and Rs3 of the shunts R1 and R3. If R1, R2, and R3 are all equal to R, then the total equivalent impedance of the shunts R1, R2, and R3 is R+Rs1, R+Rs2, and R+Rs3, respectively. Since Rs2 is smaller than Rs1 and Rs3, the current I2 flowing through the shunt R2 is greater than the current I1 and I3 flowing through the shunts R1 and R3. a and b are the sampling points for current sampling, which are sent to the current sampling module 100 for processing after sampling, and the theoretical sampling value is I*R / 3. However, since I2 is greater than the average current of the three shunts, the sampling output of this current sampling circuit will be larger than the theoretical calculation. Utility Model Content

The first end of the shunt R2 is connected to the first end of the device to be detected, the second end is connected to the second end of the device to be detected, the third end A2 is connected to the first end of the current sampling module 200 via the first resistor R12, and the fourth end B2 is connected to the second end of the current sampling module via the second resistor R22. The first end of the shunt R3 is connected to the first end of the device to be detected, the second end is connected to the second end of the device to be detected, the third end A3 is connected to the first end of the current sampling module 300 via the first resistor R13, and the fourth end B3 is connected to the second end of the current sampling module via the second resistor R23.

[0030] Preferably, the resistance values ​​of the shunts R1, R2, and R3 are equal, the resistance values ​​of the first resistors R11, R12, and R13 are equal, and the resistance values ​​of the second resistors R21, R22, and R23 are equal. More preferably, the resistance values ​​of the shunts R1, R2, and R3 are equal, all R, and the resistance values ​​of the first resistors R11, R12, and R13 and the second resistors R21, R22, and R23 are equal, all r.

[0031] Preferably, the third end A1 and the fourth end B1 of the shunt R1, the third end A2 and the fourth end B2 of the shunt R2, and the third end A3 and the fourth end B3 of the shunt R3 are all located at or near the middle position of the shunt. More preferably, the third end A1 of the shunt R1, the third end A2 of the shunt R2, and the third end A3 of the shunt R3 are at the same position on the shunt, that is, the third end A1 of the shunt R1, the third end A2 of the shunt R2, and the third end A3 of the shunt R3 are directly opposite to each other, so that the resistances on the corresponding branches are the same. The fourth end B1 of the shunt R1, the fourth end B2 of the shunt R2 and the fourth end B3 of the shunt R3 are also at the same position on the shunt, that is, the fourth end B1 of the shunt R1, the fourth end B2 of the shunt R2 and the fourth end B3 of the shunt R3 are directly opposite to each other, so that the resistance on each corresponding branch is the same.

[0032] Of course, in other preferred embodiments of the present invention, the third end A1 of the diverter R1, the third end A2 of the diverter R2, and the third end A3 of the diverter R3 may be slightly offset instead of facing each other, and the fourth end B1 of the diverter R1, the fourth end B2 of the diverter R2, and the fourth end B3 of the diverter R3 may also be slightly offset instead of facing each other. These all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0033] Here, the current sampling module 100 may adopt any isolated or non-isolated current sampling circuit known in the art, such as an operational amplifier circuit or an optical coupler circuit, which all fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0034] Figure 4 yes Figure 3 The equivalent circuit diagram of the shunt current sampling circuit is shown below. Figure 4The principle of the shunt current sampling circuit of the utility model is described as follows. As mentioned above, the resistance of the shunts R1, R2, and R3 is R. Two sampling signal lines are drawn out in the middle of each shunt R1, R2, and R3, respectively, for a total of 6 signal lines. Each sampling signal + and - is connected in series with a first resistor R11, R12, and R13 with a resistance of r and the second resistor R21, R22, and R23 before being sent to the current sampling module. Since the resistor r is much smaller than the input impedance of the current sampling module 100, V1, V2, and V3 are the voltages on each sampling side. Based on the circuit calculation analysis, the total output signal Vs = (V1 + V2 + V3) / 3 = (I1 * R1 + I2 * R2 + I3 * R3) / 3 = I * R / 3 can be obtained; the theoretical calculation formula is Vs = I * R / 3, and the sampling value obtained by the circuit is exactly the same as the value of the theoretical calculation formula. This circuit can eliminate the influence of the PCB distributed impedance on the current sampling accuracy and achieve accurate current sampling.

[0035] The shunt current sampling circuit of the utility model can obtain an accurate current sampling value after averaging the sampling signals of each parallel shunt through a resistor network, which is consistent with the theoretical calculated value, thereby improving the accuracy of current sampling. Moreover, due to its sophisticated design, simple structure and excellent performance, it is low-cost, easy to implement and has a wide range of application value.

Preferably, the N shunts R1, R2...RN are shunts with equal resistance values. The N first resistors and the N second resistors are resistors with equal resistance values, the third ends of each of the shunts R1, R2...RN are opposite to each other, and the fourth ends R1, R2...RN of each of the shunts are opposite to each other.

[0038] Of course, as mentioned above, the third ends of each of the shunts R1, R2 ... RN may also be slightly staggered from each other, and the fourth ends R1, R2 ... RN of each of the shunts may also be slightly staggered from each other. The N first resistors and the N second resistors are resistors with equal resistance values, but the resistance values ​​of the first resistors and the second resistors are not equal, which all fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
