Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of circuits, and particularly relates to a temperature control circuit with a wide AC input voltage range and constant temperature. Background Technique
[0002] In traditional electric heating products, the method of controlling temperature only reads the PTC resistance value signal data of the heating wire to judge the temperature of the heating wire, and there is no control over the change of the grid voltage.

[0046] As Figure 2 shown is the circuit diagram of a temperature control circuit for maintaining a constant temperature within a wide AC input voltage range provided by an embodiment of the present utility model.
[0047] Working principle: The 1st pin of the main control circuit U1 is the VCC power supply pin. The 2nd pin is the temperature monitoring pin of the control system.

The 11th and 12th pins are the detection line NTC abnormal monitoring pins. The 13th pin is the PTC heating wire sampling signal pin. The 14th pin is the AC input voltage dividing sampling pin. The 15th pin is the AC input voltage zero-crossing detection pin. The 16th pin is the GND pin of the U1 chip. The chip U1 is internally provided with a multifunctional and reusable IO port, which can be used corresponding to the corresponding functions. For example, in this application, the 13th and 14th pins of U1 with AD functions are used for the sampling signal.
[0048] The mains voltage dividing and acquisition module includes resistors R1, R8, R13, R131, R132, R133, capacitors C10, and capacitor C11. Resistors R1 and R8 can also be regarded as one resistor, and resistors R13, R131, R132, and R133 can be regarded as one resistor. One end of resistor R1 is connected to the AC input terminal, the other end of resistor R1 is connected to R8, the other end of R8 is connected to R13 and R133, the other ends of R13 and R133 are connected to one end of R131 and R132, the other ends of R131 and R132 are connected to one of the AD ports of C10 and the main control circuit U1, and the other end of C10 is grounded. One ends of resistors R31 and R311 are connected to the thyristor and R30, the other ends of R31 and R311 are grounded, and the other end of R30 is connected to another AD port of U1 and C11. One end of capacitor C11 is grounded. The parameters of resistors R1, R8, R13, R131, R132, R133, R31, and R311 can be adjusted arbitrarily according to different chips and control systems.
[0049] Principle of voltage division and temperature control of the mains voltage dividing circuit module:
[0050] The calculation formula is as follows:
[0051] Calculate the value of AR, AR = [R131 × R132 / (R131 + 132)] + [R133 × R13 / (R133 + R13)];
[0052] Calculate the value of V1, V1 = AR / (AR + R1 + R8) × VIN × 1.414;
[0053] Calculate the value of BR, BR = R31 × R311 / (R31 + R311);
[0054] Calculate the value of V2, V2 = BR / (BR + T1 + T2 + PTC (resistance value of the heating wire PTC)) × VIN × 1.414;
[0055] Then, based on the values obtained above, the temperature control value can be calculated. AD = V1 / V2 × 12-bit or 10-bit ADC value, and the AD value of the set temperature can be obtained.
[0056] When this circuit is working, U1 will read the current temperature AD value. If it exceeds the set value, the heating will stop. If it is lower than the set value, the heating will continue, and so on.
[0057] Whether it is the change of the AC power grid voltage or the change of the resistance value of the heating wire PTC, it will cause the change of the temperature AD value, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling or keeping the temperature constant.
[0058] When the circuit is turned on, the mains power passes through the fuse F1, one end of the heating wire via the plug pin H1, through D2 and D5 to the voltage regulator U3 to output DC 5V to U1, then through R3 and R7 to the 15th pin INT zero-crossing signal of U1, and then the voltage-dividing signal composed of resistors R1, R8, R13, R131, R132, and R133 reaches the 14th pin of U1. At this time, the power-on preparation is completed.
[0059] When an external key inputs an instruction, the 9th pin of U1 outputs a pulse to drive the thyristors T1 and T2 to conduct, and the corresponding indicator light lights up. Then, according to the corresponding values of the external key instruction, the relative values of pins 13 and 14 are read and compared to control the conduction of T1 and T2, thereby controlling the temperature of the heating wire. For example: when the values detected by pins 13 and 14 are greater than the values of the corresponding key instruction, the driving of T1 and T2 is stopped. Conversely, the 9th pin of U1 outputs a pulse signal to drive T1 and T2 to conduct and heat the heating wire until it is constant with the value of the input corresponding instruction or the timing time ends.
[0060] When the timing ends, the 3rd pin of U1 will output a 1Hz signal indicating that this cyclic operation has been completed.
[0061] During this period, if there is an abnormal temperature in the heating wire thyristor control system, U1 will issue an error warning. Thus, all cyclic operations are completed.
[0062] The voltage-dividing signal composed of resistors R1, R8, R13, R131, R132, and R133 and the sampling resistor signal composed of R31 and R311 can be flexibly adjusted according to the range supported by different chips and different models.
[0063] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, for those of ordinary skill in the art, it can be understood that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
