[0021] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0022] Provide an isolated communication circuit for sampling the voltage outside the charging pile, such as Figures 1 to 4As shown, it includes a metering sampling module, an isolation communication module and an MCU unit; wherein, the metering sampling module is used to implement voltage sampling, one side of which is used to connect to the outside of the DC charging pile charging controller to sample the voltage outside the DC charging pile charging controller, and the other side is connected to the isolation communication module, that is, to send the sampled voltage to the MCU unit.
[0023] The isolated communication module implements isolated communication and is located between the metering and sampling module and the MCU. One side of the module is connected to the other side of the metering and sampling module, which in turn is connected to the MCU. During operation, the voltage outside the DC charging pile controller is isolated by the isolated communication module before being sent to the MCU. Simultaneously, commands from the MCU are isolated by the isolated communication module before being sent to the metering and sampling module, thus achieving isolated communication.
[0024] Specifically, both the metering and sampling modules and the isolated communication module include their core ICs. For example, in one implementation, the metering and sampling module includes an AC / DC single-phase metering IC and a connected sampling circuit. The sampling circuit is connected to the outside of the DC charging pile controller, with multiple voltage-dividing series resistors interposed between the two. The isolated communication module also includes an isolated communication IC. The AC / DC single-phase metering IC is powered by a preset pin on the isolated communication IC and then by multiple filter capacitors.
[0025] Among them, such as Figure 3 As shown, the voltage divider series resistors include R174 (100Ω±1%) and R175 to R185 (470K±0.5%).
[0026] The AC / DC single-phase metering IC uses the RN8209C, and the isolated communication IC uses the CA-IS3621LVW. The CA-IS3621LVW offers high performance, including 5kVRMS isolation voltage resistance and integrated high-efficiency, low-radiation digital isolators with DC-DC converters. Its signal transmission rate ranges from DC to 100Mbps, and its isolation barrier lifespan is greater than 40 years at rated operating voltage. This solution offers low cost, stable communication, and a compact size, effectively preventing accidents.
[0027] In one implementation, Figure 2 As shown, a crystal oscillator HC-49SM is provided between the 1st and 16th pins of the AC / DC single-phase metering IC (RN8209C); at the same time, a first capacitor C165 and a second capacitor C166 are provided between the crystal oscillator and the ground.
[0028] In one implementation, Figure 4As shown, the multiple filter capacitors include a third capacitor C159 and a fourth capacitor C161 connected in parallel. Furthermore, an ESD diode ESD23 is provided in parallel with the third and fourth capacitors C159 and C161. The isolated communication IC is powered by a preset DC power supply terminal, which has a preset supply voltage of 5V. The isolated communication IC is connected to the AC / DC single-phase metering IC via serial port pins TX5 and RX5.
[0029] Based on the implementation scheme composed of RN8209C and CA-IS3621LVW, the circuit implementation principle mainly includes: the voltage outside the DC charging pile charging controller is divided by resistors R175, R176, R177, R178, R179, R180, R185, R184, R183, R182, and R181, and then connected in series with electronic R174 and capacitors C190 (10nF±10%, 50V) and C191. (100nF ±10%, 50V) to ground, then connected to pin 9 of the RN8209C for sampling. It then connects to pin 13 of the CA-IS3621LVW via pin 12 of the RN8209C for isolation. After isolation, it is sent to the MCU via pin 4 of the CA-IS3621LVW. The MCU, after isolation via pin 3 of the CA-IS3621LVW, sends instructions via its pin 14 to pin 13 of the RN8209C for reception. Simultaneously, the RN8209C is powered by capacitors C159 and C161 at pin 16 of the CA-IS3621LVW, filtered, and then supplied to the RN8209C, thus achieving bidirectional isolated power supply communication.
[0030] The above is an explanation of the isolated communication circuit for sampling the voltage outside the charging pile of the present invention, which is used to help understand the present invention; however, the implementation of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Any changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, and simplifications that do not deviate from the principles of the present invention should be equivalent replacement methods and are included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
