[0026] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the utility model more obvious and easy to understand, the specific implementation of the utility model is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the utility model. However, the utility model can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without violating the connotation of the utility model, so the utility model is not limited by the specific implementation disclosed below.

[0027] The interface power board in the power module circuit of the underwater acoustic signal processor provided by the embodiment of the utility model has a connector connected to the external power supply circuit embedded on the surface, and at the same time, corresponding power conversion circuits are integrated according to the voltage and current requirements of different functional modules, and corresponding protection circuits are also integrated to ensure the stability of the power conversion circuit functions;

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, the surface of the interface power board is integrated with a DC power conversion circuit consisting of a switching power chip. The power conversion circuit includes a 14V output circuit, a 5.5V output circuit, a 3.3V output circuit and a 12V output circuit, supports an input voltage of 4.5 to 42V, a maximum operating current of 5A, and a power conversion efficiency of up to 93%.

[0029] like Figure 2-Figure 5 As shown, the power conversion module circuit is built based on the step-down chips TPS54540 and LGS5148. The platform input power is connected to the input pin and enable pin of the chip respectively, and the output pins output the corresponding conversion voltage respectively. The remaining pins of the chip are connected as shown in the schematic diagram according to the circuit design requirements.

[0030] Preferably, the interface power board in the embodiment of the utility model is integrated with a protection circuit, which includes a short-circuit protection circuit, an overcurrent protection circuit, a high-temperature protection circuit and an anti-reverse connection protection circuit.

[0031] Preferably, the interface power board in the embodiment of the utility model adopts a J30-25ZKN connector to connect to an external power supply, and adopts a J30-15ZKN connector to connect to the signal acquisition end of the underwater acoustic signal processor. Both sets of connectors are metal reinforced and their performance meets the requirements of "GJB2446".

[0032] The power conversion circuit in the utility model adopts low-noise TPS54540 and LGS5148 switching power supply chips, both of which have the advantages of high switching efficiency, stable performance, and high cost performance. The platform power supply is divided into two paths and input to TPS54540 and LGS5148 respectively. When the input voltage is 28V, after passing through the TPS54540 device, 5.5V (conversion efficiency 85%) is output, and 3.3V (conversion efficiency 80%) is led out from the main control processing module; after passing through the LGS5148 device, 14V (conversion efficiency 90%) is output. After passing through the low-noise TL1963A LDO chip 78L12, 0.2A low-noise constant current output (power supply noise ≤ 40uV) is achieved.

[0033] The power module circuit provided by the embodiment of the utility model is a single +12V power supply for the hydrophone. The +12V power supply for the vector hydrophone is realized by +14V through the LDO power chip 78L12. The output ripple is 80uV in the frequency range of 10Hz to 100kHz, and the conversion efficiency is 86%.

[0034] The +5V power supply for the vector hydrophone and the amplifier and filter circuits is realized by +5.5V through the LDO power supply chip SGM2028-ADJ. The output ripple is 30uV in the frequency range of 10Hz to 100kHz, and the conversion efficiency is 91%.

[0035] The +3.3V power supply of the ADC sampling circuit is realized by +5.5V through the LDO power chip ME6301-3.3, with an output ripple of 10uV in the frequency range of 10Hz to 100kHz and a conversion efficiency of 60%.

[0036] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: the external power supply is connected to the power module through the J30-25ZKN connector on the interface power board, and the power conversion circuit starts to work. When the external power input is 28V, the input voltage is converted into 5.5V and 14V respectively through the TPS54540 and LGS5148 chips, wherein the output 14V passes through the LDO constant current power chip 78L12 to achieve a 12V low-noise constant current regulated output for the hydrophone, which can effectively suppress power supply interference and improve the signal-to-noise ratio of the hydrophone; the output 5.5V is used to power the acquisition module and the main control processing module respectively, wherein the 5.5V output is converted by the main control processing module LDO chip ME6301-3.3 to output 3.3V to power the ADC sampling circuit, and the output is converted by the LDO power chip SGM2028-ADJ to output 5V to power the vector hydrophone and the amplification and filtering circuits.

[0037] In order to ensure the stable and safe operation of the entire power module circuit, the utility model also integrates a protection circuit, including a short circuit protection circuit, an overcurrent protection circuit, a high temperature protection circuit and an anti-reverse connection protection circuit. The protection circuit continuously monitors the working status of the power module, including parameters such as current, voltage and temperature. If the protection circuit detects an abnormal situation (such as short circuit, overcurrent, high temperature or reverse connection), it will immediately trigger corresponding protection measures, such as cutting off the power supply or adjusting the current, to prevent equipment damage or danger. Under normal working conditions, the power module continuously and stably outputs electrical energy at the required voltage level to ensure the stable operation of the underwater acoustic signal processor.
