Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of lithium battery charging detection, and particularly relates to a charging state detection circuit suitable for lithium batteries. Background Art

[0002] At present, with the development of lithium battery industry technology, lithium battery management system technology is developing faster and faster. There are two mainstream ways to detect the charging status of lithium batteries. One is to use a differential op amp to amplify the voltage on the current sampling resistor, and then use a comparator to compare the voltage with the reference voltage to detect the charging status; the other is to use the fact that the charging port voltage is greater than the battery voltage during charging, and use an op amp to compare the voltage of the battery charging port and the battery to detect the charging status.

[0003] However, method one requires opening the charging branch when detecting charging, which limits the usage scenario; method two requires an op amp to implement the circuit, which has the problem of power consumption and relatively high cost. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0012] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0013] according to Figure 1As shown, a charging state detection circuit suitable for a lithium battery B includes a first resistor R1, a second resistor R2, a third resistor R3, a fourth resistor R4, a first diode terminal, a second diode D2, a third diode D3, a fourth diode D4, a first transistor Q1, a battery B, a charger interface C, a voltage detection unit CHG STA and an electrode power supply VCC, wherein the electrode power supply VCC is electrically connected to the first resistor R1 and the second resistor R2, the second resistor R2 is electrically connected to the second diode D2, the second diode D2 is electrically connected to the third diode D3 and the first transistor Q1, the first transistor Q1 is electrically connected to the charger interface C, the first resistor R1 is electrically connected to the first diode D1, the first diode D1 is electrically connected to the third resistor R3 and the fourth diode D4, the third resistor R3 is electrically connected to the third diode D3, the fourth diode D4 is electrically connected to the fourth resistor R4 and the battery B, and the fourth resistor R4 is electrically connected to the first transistor Q1.

[0014] The second resistor R2 is electrically connected to the anode of the second diode D2, the cathode of the second diode D2 is electrically connected to the cathode of the third diode D3 and the first transistor Q1, the first transistor Q1 is electrically connected to the charger interface C, the first resistor R1 is electrically connected to the anode of the first diode D1, the cathode of the first diode D1 is electrically connected to the third resistor R3 and the anode of the fourth diode D4, the third resistor R3 is electrically connected to the anode of the third diode D3, the anode of the fourth diode D4 is electrically connected to the fourth resistor R4 and the battery B, forming a complete circuit, which can charge the battery B.

[0015] The collector of the first transistor Q1 is electrically connected to the cathode of the second diode D2 and the cathode of the third diode D3, the emitter of the first transistor Q1 is electrically connected to the charger interface C, the base of the first transistor Q1 is electrically connected to the anode of the fourth diode D4 and the battery B, and the voltage detection unit CHG STA is electrically connected between the first resistor R1 and the first diode D1.

The voltage difference is the full charge voltage of the charger minus the voltage of battery B. In the corresponding figure, when the charger is plugged in, the voltage of battery B is greater than the voltage of the charger interface C. In addition to the battery B being fully charged, the voltage difference between battery B and charger interface C is generally greater than 0.7V. At this time, the charger interface C is turned on, the cathode voltage of the second diode D2 and the third diode D3 is the voltage of the charger interface C, the cathode voltage of the first diode D1 and the fourth diode D4 is about -0.7V, and the positive voltage of the first diode D1 is about 0V, that is, the voltage detected by the voltage detection unit CHG STA is 0V.

[0017] That is, the voltage measured by the voltage detection unit CHG STA can realize the judgment of the charging state.

In the description of the present utility model, unless otherwise specified and limited, it should be noted that the terms "installed", "connected" and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection, or it can be the internal connection of two elements, it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium.
