Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of subway testing equipment, in particular to a PIS screen LED backlight driver testing device. Background Art

[0002] The PIS system, also known as the passenger information system, is a multimedia comprehensive information system that relies on multimedia network technology and takes the computer system as the core. It allows passengers to timely and accurately understand train operation information and public media information through media equipment installed in station halls, platforms, and train passenger compartments. The PIS system is widely used for platform train entry countdown display, train station information in carriages, video media advertising and emergency status information release, including train broadcasts, internal displays, V-screens, carriage monitoring, emergency call equipment, etc.

[0003] At present, 90% of the PIS screens used in subways do not meet the brightness standards, resulting in problems such as low quality of displayed information and poor passenger experience. According to the performance characteristics of the equipment, the key points of screen life and brightness reduction are the aging of the screen backlight tube and the aging of the liquid crystal. To this end, a new type of LED driver backlight was developed based on the PIS screens of Line 1 Phase I, and a batch of new backlight components were produced and tested after installation.

[0004] Using LED backlight driver to replace the original PIS screen's LCD screen's high-voltage light backlight driver has the following advantages. 1. Energy saving: The original device consumes a lot of power. After replacing it with LED backlight, the power consumption is reduced, saving electricity. 2. Extending the life of the equipment: After replacing the backlight component, the service life of the equipment can be extended and the failure rate can be reduced. 3. Improving passenger satisfaction: After the brightness is improved, the passenger information system plays information clearly, enhancing the visual experience of passengers.

[0005] In order to complete the test of LED drivers and ensure the quality of LED drivers after production, a set of LED driver detection devices is designed to realize functional tests such as voltage, current, backlight brightness adjustment, power on / off test of each LED driver, screen and repair those with poor performance, and avoid affecting the use after replacement after installation in PIS screen.

[0006] In the prior art, the conventional method for testing the LED backlight driver of a PIS screen is to use multiple multimeters or voltage and current meters to measure the voltage and current at each measuring point; use a PWM controller to adjust different PWM duty cycles to achieve control and simulation of the backlight brightness; and use a power switch to achieve power on and off testing of the LED driver. The conventional testing method requires wiring and screwing connections at each test point, and manual data recording and observation of test conditions are required during the batch process, which increases the complexity of manual operation, reduces the ease of use of the test process, increases test time and workload, and is not conducive to the efficiency of the test work.

[0007] Since the power input of the LED driver under test is a DC 36V power supply, the LED driver adjusts the brightness according to the power-on / off signal and the PWM control signal. Its working principle is to input a DC voltage and pass it through a dedicated power management chip to achieve a constant current boost, thereby providing a constant current supply to the LED light bar to ensure the brightness of the LED light. In the circuit, since the grounds of the 36V power supply, LED driver, power-on / off signal and PWM control signal are different between different circuits, in order to avoid direct electrical connection of different grounds affecting normal operation, it is necessary to pay special attention to the need for isolated voltage and current measurement of the circuit, and the power-on / off signal and PWM control signal output need to use isolated output.

[0055] Human eye observation is achieved by observing the brightness changes of LED light bar 1 and LED light bar 2. Numerical quantification results can also be obtained by the voltage and current value changes of each node of the isolation voltage isolation current measurement circuit 1, the isolation voltage isolation current measurement circuit 2, and the isolation voltage isolation current measurement circuit 3.

[0056] like Figure 1As shown, the MCU controller is the main control unit, which is electrically connected to the external device and circuit respectively.

[0063] like Figure 8 The voltage measurement circuit diagram is shown in Figure 1. The voltage to be measured is electrically connected, and after being stepped down by the resistor network, it becomes a voltage signal that can be detected by the MCU. After analog-to-digital conversion by the ADC inside the MCU, the measured voltage value can be obtained through parameter conversion.

[0064] like Fig. 9As shown in the figure, the current measurement circuit diagram is shown. The current to be measured is electrically connected, and the current sampling resistor is connected in series to the circuit to be measured. The current signal generates a voltage signal through the current sampling resistor. After the voltage signal is amplified by the in-phase ratio of the operational amplifier, the voltage signal is amplified, and after the ADC analog-to-digital conversion inside the MCU, the measured current value can be obtained through parameter conversion.

[0065] like Fig.10 The figure shows a serial port isolation communication circuit. The isolation voltage and isolation current measurement circuits realize isolated communication with other circuits through serial port communication isolated by optical coupler.

[0066] like Fig.11 As shown, it is the circuit diagram of the power-on / off drive circuit. This circuit is a power-on / off drive circuit, and the power supply of this circuit is an isolated power supply. P1.0 is the IO port of the MCU that outputs high and low levels, thereby realizing the power-on or power-off function control. Q5 is an NMOS tube, R68 is the pull-down resistor of the MOS tube gate, R66 is the IO port of the microcontroller P1.0 and the gate resistor of the NMOS in series, R62 is the pull-up resistor of the signal output, and P7 is the output interface. When P1.0 is at a high level, the NMOS tube is turned on, and P7 outputs a low level. When P1.0 is at a low level, the NMOS tube is not turned on, and P7 outputs a high level.

[0067] like Fig.12 As shown in the figure, it is a PWM backlight driving circuit diagram. This circuit is a PWM regulation circuit, and the power supply of this circuit is an isolated power supply. P1.1 is the IO port of the MCU, which outputs PWM signals with different duty cycles, thereby realizing the adjustment function control of the PWM backlight brightness. Q6 is an NMOS tube, R69 is the pull-down resistor of the MOS tube gate, R67 is the gate resistor connected in series with the IO port of the microcontroller P1.0 and the NMOS, R63 is the pull-up resistor of the signal output, and P8 is the output interface.

[0068] When P1.1 is high, the NMOS tube is turned on and P8 outputs a low level. When P1.1 is low, the NMOS tube is not turned on and P8 outputs a high level. When P1.1 outputs PWM signals with different pulse widths, P8 outputs signals with different PWM duty cycles.

[0069] The invention also includes a test fixture, which is used to clamp the LED driver to be tested. The fixture is a prior art and adopts a universal fixture for driver testing disclosed in application number CN201921361865.5.
