Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments.

[0022] The present application provides a battery protection board, optionally, as Figure 1 As shown, the battery protection board includes:

[0023] The substrate 102 is provided with a precision resistor 104 , a power meter 106 and a current sampling line 108 . The precision resistor 104 and the power meter 106 are connected via the current sampling line 108 , wherein the current sampling line 108 is led out from the middle position of the precision resistor 104 and connected to the differential signal input terminal of the power meter 106 .

[0024] Optionally, in the design of laptop battery protection boards, most projects currently use precision resistors to detect the magnitude of current. Laptop battery protection boards are getting smaller and smaller. Due to space limitations, when the current sampling line of the precision resistor is wrapped with AGND network copper foil, there will be an incomplete AGND network, resulting in excessive leakage current, which leads to inaccurate current sampling of the precision resistor. Therefore, in this embodiment, a precision resistor 104, a power meter 106, and a current sampling line 108 are provided on the substrate 102, and the routing method of the current sampling line 108 on the substrate 102 is optimized. The middle position, that is, the middle position of the precision resistor 104, the current sampling line 108 is led out from the middle position of the precision resistor 104, and the voltage drop on half of the precision resistor 104 is measured, which can avoid the error caused by the potential difference between the two ends of the precision resistor 104, thereby achieving the purpose of improving the accuracy of the current sampling of the precision resistor, and then solving the technical problem of inaccurate current sampling of the precision resistor.

[0025] Optionally, the current sampling line 108 plays a vital role in the fuel gauge 106 (such as a battery management IC), and is responsible for extracting a voltage signal from the precision resistor 104 and transmitting it to the differential signal input pins (SRP and SRN) of the fuel gauge 106, so as to measure the current passing through the precision resistor 104. In this embodiment, the precision resistor 104 is connected to the fuel gauge 106 through the current sampling line 108, and the current sampling line 108 is extracted from the middle position of the precision resistor 104 and connected to the differential signal input terminals SRP and SRN of the fuel gauge 106, respectively, to reduce the influence of the lead resistance and the PCB trace resistance on the measurement.

[0026] As an optional example, the current sampling line includes a first current sampling line and a second current sampling line, the first end of the first current sampling line is connected to the positive electrode of the precision resistor, the second end of the first current sampling line is connected to the differential signal input end of the fuel meter, the first end of the second current sampling line is connected to the negative electrode of the precision resistor, and the second end of the second current sampling line is connected to the differential signal input end of the fuel meter.

[0027] Optionally, in this embodiment, the current sampling line includes a first current sampling line and a second current sampling line, wherein the first end of the first current sampling line is connected to the positive electrode of the precision resistor, and the second end of the first current sampling line is connected to the differential signal input terminal SRP (Sense Res is stor Pos it i ve) of the fuel meter to measure the positive electrode voltage of the voltage difference across the precision resistor. The first end of the second current sampling line is connected to the negative electrode of the precision resistor, and the second end of the second current sampling line is connected to the differential signal input terminal SRN of the fuel meter to measure the negative electrode voltage of the voltage difference across the precision resistor.

[0028] As an optional example, the differential signal input terminal of the fuel meter includes a first differential signal input terminal and a second differential signal input terminal, the first differential signal input terminal of the fuel meter is connected to the second end of the first current sampling line, and the second differential signal input terminal of the fuel meter is connected to the second end of the second current sampling line.

[0029] Optionally, in this embodiment, the functions of the SRP (Sense Res is stor Pos it ive) and SRN (Sense Res is stor Negative) pins in the fuel meter are differential inputs for current sampling, and are respectively connected to the two ends of the precision resistor to measure the current passing through the precision resistor. The SRP pin is connected to the positive terminal of the precision resistor through the first current sampling line, and measures the positive voltage of the voltage difference between the two ends of the precision resistor. As part of the differential signal input, it works with the SRN pin to measure the current passing through the precision resistor. The SRN pin is connected to the negative terminal of the precision resistor through the second current sampling line, and measures the negative voltage of the voltage difference between the two ends of the precision resistor. Together with the SRP pin, it constitutes a differential input pair, and the current is calculated by measuring the voltage difference. The fuel meter measures the voltage difference between the two ends of the precision resistor through the SRP and SRN pins. Since the SRP pin is connected to the positive terminal of the precision resistor and the SRN pin is connected to the negative terminal of the precision resistor, the fuel meter can accurately measure the voltage difference caused by the current.

[0030] As an optional example, the first current sampling line and the second current sampling line have the same length and width and are parallel.

The first current sampling line 1 and the second current sampling line 2 adopt a differential routing design. The two differential lines need to be equidistant, equal in length, equal in width, and parallel to maintain the symmetry of the routing, and try to avoid sharp turns and irregular routing. Avoid phase differences and errors introduced by inconsistent line lengths, and effectively reduce the impact of external electromagnetic interference on the signal. The two current sampling lines transmit signals in a differential manner, that is, the voltage difference between the two ends of the resistor is transmitted, which can improve the anti-interference ability and measurement accuracy.

[0032] As an optional example, the first current sampling line and the second current sampling line are surrounded by a complete AGND network.

[0033] Optionally, in this embodiment, if Figure 2In the schematic diagram of the circuit board shown in the figure, the area around the first current sampling line and the second current sampling line is filled with AGND (analog ground) to form a continuous AGND area, so that the first current sampling line 1 and the second current sampling line 2 are surrounded by the complete AGND network 4, and vias and signal lines of other networks are not allowed to appear around the current sampling lines. This reduces external electromagnetic interference and improves signal integrity and accuracy. In the multi-layer PCB design, there is at least one substrate, and precision resistors, a power meter, and current sampling lines are set on one of the substrates. One of the independent substrates is allocated to the AGND network to ensure the integrity of the AGND network and avoid placing signal lines on the AGND plane to avoid introducing noise.

[0034] As an optional example, the battery protection board further includes at least one first AGND hole, which is arranged on an AGND network surrounding the current sampling line, and is used to connect the AGND network surrounding the current sampling line and the AGND network of an adjacent layer.

[0035] Optionally, in this embodiment, if Figure 2 As shown in the circuit board schematic diagram, in a multi-layer PCB design, AGND vias are used to connect the AGND planes of different layers together to form a continuous AGND network. The first AGND hole is drilled on the AGND network surrounding the current sampling line. If there is enough space, double vias can be used to connect to the AGND network of adjacent layers or other layers to enhance shielding interference.

[0036] As an optional example, the battery protection board further includes a capacitor, and the capacitor is connected to the differential signal input terminal of the fuel meter.

[0037] Optionally, in this embodiment, a filter capacitor may be placed near the SRP pin and the SRN pin of the fuel meter, with one end of the capacitor connected to the current sampling line and the other end connected to AGND.

[0038] As an alternative example, the capacitor is surrounded by a complete AGND network.

[0039] Optionally, in this embodiment, if Figure 2 As shown in the schematic diagram of the circuit board, the line and resistor and capacitor components at one end close to the fuel meter 6 need to be surrounded by a complete AGND network 4, so as to reduce external electromagnetic interference and improve signal integrity and accuracy.

[0040] As an optional example, the battery protection board further includes at least one second AGND hole, the second AGND hole is arranged on the AGND network surrounding the capacitor, and the second AGND hole is used to connect the AGND network surrounding the capacitor and the AGND network of an adjacent layer.

[0041] Optionally, in this embodiment, if Figure 2 In the circuit board schematic diagram shown, AGND vias are drilled around the AGND network of the capacitor connected to the SRP pin and SRN pin of the fuel gauge 6 to connect the AGND network of the adjacent layer or other layers to enhance shielding interference.

[0042] Optionally, the width of the substrate is widened on the original basis, so that the devices around the power meter are away from the AGND copper foil, and the AGND copper foil is completely wrapped and the AGND network vias are drilled to connect with the adjacent layer or other layer AGND network.

[0043] Optionally, when designing the current sampling line, the present application drills AGND holes on the AGND network around the current sampling line, especially drills AGND holes around the capacitors connected to the SRP pin and SRN pin of the power meter to connect them to the AGND network of adjacent layers or other layers to enhance shielding interference. Without increasing the cost, the sampling accuracy of the precision resistor is improved only by optimizing the routing and drilling methods of the current sampling line on the substrate.

[0044] As an optional example, the AGND network is copper foil.

[0045] Optionally, in this embodiment, if Figure 2 In the schematic diagram of the circuit board shown in the figure, the AGND network 5 filled around the first current sampling line 1 and the second current sampling line 2 and around the capacitor is made of copper foil material, and may also be other alternative metal materials.
