Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of electronic technology, in particular to a programmable dynamic overcurrent testing device. Background Art
[0002] Overcurrent protection is a protection method that activates the protection device when the current exceeds a predetermined maximum value. When the current flowing through the protected component exceeds a preset value, the protection device is activated and uses a time limit to ensure the selectivity of the action, causing the circuit breaker to trip or give an alarm signal. However, there is often another concept in product design, "overcurrent protection time"; when defining the product, it is generally stated that when the port current exceeds the rated current, the overcurrent protection will be performed within or outside a certain period of time to shut down the output.
[0003] Protection within the specified time: For components like vehicle body lights, immediate protection is generally required after overcurrent occurs to avoid short circuits and require immediate response.
[0004] For example, the headlight driver stipulates that protection must be performed 200ms after overcurrent. Then the following problems will occur:
[0005] Question 1: How to determine whether the overcurrent protection is within 200ms?
[0006] Question 2: How to test and obtain the fastest over-current protection time?
[0007] Protection outside the specified time: In addition to immediate overcurrent protection, there is also a type of overcurrent protection that starts protection only after a certain period of time has passed. For example, electric windows may encounter certain obstacles (dust, thermal expansion and contraction of rubber strips in winter) during the rise and fall process, which may cause the current to occasionally exceed the rated value. However, it is necessary to try to raise and lower the window. In this case, it is defined that the port will shut down the output after a certain period of time has passed the current, delaying the response.
[0008] For example, the electric window driver is required to shut down the output for protection 200ms after overcurrent. Then the following problems will occur:
[0009] Question 1: How to determine whether the overcurrent protection is after 200ms?
[0010] Question 2: If the overcurrent lasts for only 190ms, will the product report an overcurrent DTC? Summary of the invention
