[0074] In real life, the above circuit exists as a subordinate execution circuit. The entire care system consists of a PC, a Doppler radar detection device, a Raspberry Pi data processing device (hereinafter referred to as Raspberry Pi), and an alarm device.

[0075] The Doppler radar detection device uses a non-contact detection method of Doppler radar to detect the vital sign signals of the elderly and transmits the vital sign signal data to the PC. After the data is processed by the processor, it can effectively judge the current state of the elderly. Once an abnormality occurs, such as an emergency situation where the elderly's breathing stops or the elderly gets out of bed for a long time at night, the Raspberry Pi data processing device will receive the instruction transmitted from the PC and drive the alarm device to emit a sound or light alarm signal to obtain emergency assistance from the nursing staff.

[0076] The Doppler radar detection device communicates with the Raspberry Pi directly, and the Raspberry Pi communicates with the alarm device directly.

[0077] During communication, the following parameter configurations are written to the TF card of the Raspberry Pi to configure the network connection (example):

[0078] SSID: {wifi_name}

[0079] PASSWORD: {012345678}

[0080] eth0: {192.168.0.120}

[0081] wlan0: {192.168.0.121}

[0082] PORT: {1680}

[0083] The Raspberry Pi receives instructions from the PC and executes corresponding actions to drive the alarm device according to the instructions. The setting principle is as follows:

[0084] (1) Set instruction requirements

[0085] Set instruction (Central PC → Alarm device)

[0086]

[0087] Set instruction identification code: "W" (0x57);

[0088] Instruction content: The set instruction is represented by a 1-byte bit string;

[0089] For the instruction content, please refer to (3) Instruction code requirements;

[0101] Set Instruction Identification Code: "R" (0x52);

[0103] For the instruction content, please refer to the requirements of (3) Instruction Codes;

[0104] (3) Instruction Code Requirements

[0105] The instruction content is represented by ON: 1, OFF: 0 of a 1-byte bit string

[0106]

[0107] Example: The instruction for the central PC to control the red and green lights of the alarm device to be always on and the speaker to play music 2 is: 0101011100001101 (0x570D), where 01010111 is the identification code and 00001101 is the instruction code.

[0108] Examples of alarm execution are as follows:

[0109] The green alarm indicator light is connected to J3, the yellow alarm indicator light is connected to J4, and the red alarm indicator light is connected to J6.

[0110] The GPIO_9, GPIO_10, and GPIO_11 pins of the Raspberry Pi are respectively connected to the ctrl-1, ctrl-2, and ctrl-3 pins of the alarm device, and the audio output of the Raspberry Pi is connected to the audio input interface J5 of the alarm device.

[0111] When there is an alarm, the Raspberry Pi plays the audio file in the TF card through the built-in software; the Raspberry Pi issues a light alarm by controlling the level states of the GPIO_9, GPIO_10, and GPIO_11 pins.

[0112] Illustrative example:

[0113] When GPIO_9 is connected to ctrl-1, when GPIO_9 is at a low level (0V), ctrl-1 is also at a low level. At this time, the voltage between pins 1 and 2 of OC1 causes the transistor to conduct, the 3-pin of PC817 outputs a high level, Q1 turns off, and the LED alarm indicator light connected to J3 goes out; conversely, when GPIO_9 is at a high level, the LED alarm indicator light connected to J3 lights up, emitting an alarm. The same applies to the LED alarm indicator lights connected to J4 and J6.

[0114] The present application also provides a nursing alarm device, including a PCB board, on which the above-mentioned nursing alarm circuit is provided.

[0115] More specifically, the PCB board adopts a double-layer stacked structure, which are the top layer and the bottom layer in sequence. Among them, both the top layer and the bottom layer are used for signal wiring of the nursing alarm device circuit board, and at the same time, they are also used for laying the GND network.

[0116] Both the top layer and the bottom layer are copper-clad for the GND network, which is used for heat dissipation and enhancing the anti-interference ability of the board.

[0117] As Figure 5 shown, in the circuit layout, the voltage conversion unit is set on the top layer, and the polarized capacitors C4, C5, C6, C7, inductor L1, electromagnetic compatibility processing unit, lighting control unit, and U2, C11, C13 of the stereo audio power amplifier unit of the filtering unit. The actual wiring design can refer to Figure 7 .

[0118] As Figure 6 shown, in the circuit layout, the polarized capacitors C1, C2 of the filtering unit, signal isolation unit, U3, C9, C10, C12, C14, C15 of the stereo audio power amplifier unit are set on the bottom layer. The actual wiring design can refer to Figure 8 .

[0119] Furthermore, the performance of the circuit board can be enhanced by the following methods:

[0120] 1) Both the top layer and the bottom layer are copper-clad for heat dissipation and enhancing the anti-interference ability of the board.

[0121] 2) Further on the basis of 1), the copper cladding on the top layer is divided into digital partition copper cladding and analog partition copper cladding, which is used to reduce the crosstalk between high-frequency and low-frequency signals.

[0122] 3) The circuit board uses FR4-TG150 material and immersion gold process, which has better physical properties and better signal transmission performance than ordinary FR4 material.
