Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of sensor circuits, and particularly relates to a driving recorder. Background Art

[0002] A farad capacitor is arranged in a driving recorder, and the charge and discharge characteristics of the farad capacitor are utilized to provide emergency power for the recorder.

[0003] As Figure 1 shown is the working principle diagram of the super capacitor arranged in the driving recorder provided in the prior art. As Figure 1 in the circuit, a farad capacitor socket CN13, a charging resistor R101 and a freewheeling diode D7 are arranged; the farad capacitor socket CN13 is used for connecting an external farad capacitor. Specifically, in implementation, the two pins of the external farad capacitor will be respectively connected to the 1st pin and the 2nd pin of the farad capacitor socket CN13; one end of the charging resistor R101 is connected to the network voltage +5V, and the other end is connected to the 1st pin in the farad capacitor socket CN13; the anode of the freewheeling diode D7 is connected to the 1st pin in the farad capacitor socket CN13, and its cathode is connected to the network voltage +5V; after the driving recorder is powered on, the network voltage +5V starts to be normally supplied, and charges the external farad capacitor connected to the farad capacitor socket CN13 through the charging resistor R101 until it is fully charged; if a sudden situation occurs and the driving recorder suddenly loses power, the network voltage +5V will also disappear simultaneously. At this time, the external farad capacitor will supply power to the network voltage +5V through the freewheeling diode D7, ensuring that within a period of time when the network voltage +5V suddenly disappears due to a sudden situation, the driving recorder still has power supply, and further ensuring that the driving recorder still has sufficient time to save the monitoring video after a sudden situation occurs.

[0004] However, when the above circuit is applied to a specific driving recorder, such as when the driving recorder is just powered on, the network voltage +5V just starts to charge the external farad capacitor and is not fully charged and then suddenly loses power. Since the external farad capacitor is not fully charged, the voltage supplied by the external farad capacitor to the network voltage +5V through the freewheeling diode D7 must be less than 5V. Although the driving recorder has power supply, the voltage of the supplied power is insufficient, and the driving recorder is prone to problems such as system crash and program runaway. Not only the last section of the video still cannot be saved after a sudden power failure, but the system is also very easy to be damaged. Content of the Utility Model

Specific Embodiment 1:

[0030] Reference Figure 1-2 。

[0031] In this specific embodiment, a circuit for preventing a driving recorder from crashing is provided, which includes a socket unit, a charge and discharge unit, and a discharge switch.

[0032] In this specific embodiment, the socket unit includes a capacitor socket EC. The capacitor socket EC has a first pin EC-1, a second pin EC-2, a third pin EC-3, and a fourth pin EC-4. The third pin EC-3 and the fourth pin EC-4 of the capacitor socket EC are grounded. The first pin EC-1 of the capacitor socket EC is respectively connected and conducted with both ends of an external farad capacitor (not shown in the figure) to the second pin EC-2. The charge and discharge unit includes a charging resistor R12 and a charging diode D3. One end of the charging resistor R12 is connected to an external network power supply SYS_PWR, and the other end of the charging resistor R12 is connected to the first pin EC-1 in the capacitor socket EC. The cathode of the charging diode D3 is connected to the external network power supply SYS_PWR, and the anode of the charging diode D3 is connected to the first pin EC-1 in the capacitor socket EC. The discharge switch includes a main control chip (not shown in the figure), a first switching MOS transistor Q29, a second switching MOS transistor Q19, a first switching resistor R635, a second switching resistor R676, and a third switching resistor R0402. The source of the first switching MOS transistor Q29 is connected to the second pin EC-2 in the capacitor socket EC. The drain of the first switching MOS transistor Q29 is connected to the drain of the second switching MOS transistor Q19. The source of the second switching MOS transistor Q19 is grounded. The gate of the first switching MOS transistor Q29 is connected to the gate of the second switching MOS transistor Q19. One end of the first switching resistor R635 is connected to the second pin EC-2 in the capacitor socket EC, and the other end of the first switching resistor R635 is connected to the gate of the first switching MOS transistor Q29. One end of the second switching resistor R676 is connected to the drain of the second switching MOS transistor Q19, and the other end of the second switching resistor R676 is connected to the source of the second switching MOS transistor Q19. One end of the third switching resistor R0402 is connected to the gate of the first switching MOS transistor Q29, and the other end of the third switching resistor R0402 is connected to the POW pin in the main control chip. In this specific embodiment, the common end of the charging resistor R12 and the capacitor socket EC is led out as a detection terminal TP1 to detect whether the external farad capacitor is fully charged.

[0033] The actual power storage situation of the external farad capacitor is directly reflected in the voltage amplitude at the detection terminal TP1 led out from the common end of the charging resistor R12 and the capacitor socket EC. By leading out the common end of the charging resistor R12 and the capacitor socket EC as the detection terminal TP1 and obtaining the voltage value at this detection terminal, the power storage situation of the external farad capacitor can be judged in real time.

[0034] At first, the external farad capacitor is in a state of having no charge at all. After the driving recorder is powered on, the external network power supply will provide a +5V voltage. The external network power supply is connected through the charge and discharge unit and continuously charges the external farad capacitor through the capacitor socket EC. The voltage amplitude at the common end of the charging resistor R12 and the capacitor socket EC changes continuously as the charge storage capacity of the external farad capacitor changes. If no accident occurs during this process of the driving recorder, the external network power supply will continuously charge the external farad capacitor until it is fully charged.

[0035] After the external farad capacitor is fully charged, it will maintain its fully charged state without change.

[0036] When the external farad capacitor is fully charged and an accident occurs to the driving recorder (such as the user suddenly shutting down, the system being damaged, the vehicle colliding and the circuit being interrupted, etc.), the external network power supply will lose power instantly when the accident occurs to the driving recorder. The discharge switch controlled by the main control chip is turned on, and the external farad capacitor can discharge to the external network power supply in a sufficient voltage state, maintaining the voltage amplitude of the external network power supply for a period of time, thereby ensuring that the driving recorder still has sufficient time to save the monitoring screen after an unexpected situation occurs.

[0037] If an accident occurs to the driving recorder and the external network power supply suddenly loses power when the external farad capacitor is not fully charged, then the voltage amplitude at the common end TP1 of the charging resistor R12 and the capacitor socket EC at the moment of power loss indicates that the external farad capacitor has not reached the fully charged state. The main control chip will also lose power, and the first switching MOS transistor Q29 and the second switching MOS transistor Q19 connected to the main control chip are controlled to be cut off. The external farad capacitor cannot discharge to the external network power supply through the discharge switch. Since a charging diode D3 is set in a direction completely opposite to the discharge direction of the external farad capacitor, the charge and discharge unit originally connected to the external farad capacitor also blocks the connection between the external farad capacitor and the external network power supply at this time. At this time, the external farad capacitor cannot discharge, and the system needs to seek other power sources or directly shut down, thus effectively avoiding problems such as system crash and program runaway due to the voltage not meeting the amplitude requirements. Specific Embodiment 2:

[0039] Please refer to Figure 1 、 3 。

[0040] In this specific embodiment, a circuit for preventing the driving recorder from crashing is provided, including a socket unit, a charge and discharge unit, and a discharge switch.

[0041] In this specific embodiment, the socket unit includes a capacitor socket CN4. The capacitor socket CN4 has a first pin CN4-1, a second pin CN4-2, a third pin CN4-3, and a fourth pin CN4-4. The third pin CN4-3 and the fourth pin CN4-4 of the capacitor socket CN4 are grounded. The first pin CN4-1 of the capacitor socket CN4 is respectively connected and conducted to both ends of an external farad capacitor (not shown in the figure) with the second pin CN4-2. The charge and discharge unit includes a first charging resistor R769, a second charging resistor R18, and a charging diode D13. One end of the first charging resistor R769 is connected to an external network power supply VUSB, and the other end of the first charging resistor R769 is connected to the anode of the charging diode D13. The cathode of the charging diode D13 is connected to one end of the second charging resistor R18, and the other end of the second charging resistor R18 is connected to the second pin of the capacitor socket CN4. The discharge switch includes a main control chip (not shown in the figure), a first switching MOS transistor Q39, a second switching MOS transistor Q40, a first switching triode Q41, a first switching resistor R21, a second switching resistor R22, and a third switching resistor R742. The source of the first switching MOS transistor Q39 is connected to the common terminal of the second charging resistor R18 and the capacitor socket CN4. The drain of the first switching MOS transistor Q39 is connected to the drain of the second switching MOS transistor Q40. The source of the second switching MOS transistor Q40 is connected to the anode of the charging diode D13. The gate of the first switching MOS transistor Q39 is connected to the gate of the second switching MOS transistor Q40. One end of the first switching resistor R21 is connected to the common terminal of the first switching MOS transistor Q39 and the capacitor socket CN4, and the other end of the first switching resistor R21 is connected to the gate of the first switching MOS transistor Q39. The collector of the first switching triode Q41 is connected to the gate of the first switching MOS transistor Q39. The emitter of the first switching triode Q41 is grounded. The base of the first switching triode Q41 is connected to one end of the second switching resistor R22, and the other end of the second switching resistor R22 is connected to the POW pin in the main control chip. One end of the third switching resistor R742 is connected to the common terminal of the first switching triode Q41 and the second switching resistor R22, and the other end of the third switching resistor R742 is grounded. The specific model of the main control chip is NT96670. The common terminal of the second charging resistor R18 and the capacitor socket CN4 is led out as a detection terminal CAP+ to detect whether the external farad capacitor is fully charged.

[0042] The main control chip determines whether the external farad capacitor is fully charged by monitoring the real-time voltage at the detection terminal CAP+ led out from the common terminal of the second charging resistor R18 and the capacitor socket CN4 or by timing. If the driving recorder suddenly loses power when the external farad capacitor is not fully charged, the main control chip will also lose power, the discharge switch controlled by the main control chip will be cut off, and the external farad capacitor cannot discharge to the external network power supply via the discharge switch. The system needs to seek other power sources or directly shut down, thus effectively avoiding the problems of system crash and program runaway caused by the voltage not meeting the amplitude requirements.

[0043] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and do not limit the patent scope of the present invention accordingly. Any equivalent structural transformation made under the inventive concept of the present invention by using the content of the specification and drawings of the present invention, or any direct / indirect application in other related technical fields is included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
