Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of electronic circuit control, in particular to a micro point-to-point control unit based on a special chip for electronic detonators. Background Art
[0002] Currently, H-bridges are commonly used in electronic detonator applications to control bus communication. Specifically, an H-bridge consists of four switches, which can be transistors (such as MOSFETs or IGBTs), relays, or other types of switches. When different switch combinations are activated, they change the polarity of the output voltage to control the communication waveform.
[0003] H-bridge communication circuits are generally divided into two categories: one using an H-bridge integrated IC, and the other using a circuit built with common switching devices. Both have advantages and disadvantages, which are briefly described below.
[0004] While commonly used H-bridge ICs are highly integrated and compact, they suffer from slow polarity switching speeds and are not suitable for high-speed communication environments. Most H-bridge ICs are unsuitable for devices requiring low power due to their small size and poor heat dissipation, resulting in high power consumption.
[0005] H-bridge communication circuits constructed with commonly used switching devices are complex, relatively low-cost, and offer fast polarity switching, making them suitable for most high-speed communication environments. However, the large number of components occupies more space on the PCB design, resulting in a larger overall PCB size and indirectly increasing costs.
[0006] With the rapid development and continuous iteration of electronic detonators, there are more and more application scenarios such as low power consumption, high-speed communication, low cost, and small size. However, the above two solutions are not applicable.

[0081] like Figure 3 As shown, the circuit structure of the second MOS unit is the same as the circuit structure of the third MOS unit, and the current output end of the PMOS component circuit in the third MOS unit is electrically connected to the first bus output.
[0082] like Figure 3 As shown, the second MOS unit includes:

[0085] A twelfth resistor has one end grounded and the other end electrically connected to the gate of the enhancement-mode NMOS transistor Q6 ; the resistance of the twelfth resistor is 10K.
[0086] like Figure 3 As shown, the circuit structure of the fourth MOS unit is the same as that of the second MOS unit; the drain of the enhancement mode NMOS tube in the fourth MOS unit is electrically connected to the first bus output.
[0087] like Figure 3 As shown, the current output end of the first MOS unit and the current output end of the second MOS unit are electrically connected to the second bus output through the 10th resistor; the resistance value of the 10th resistor is 10R;
[0088] The current output end of the third MOS unit and the current output end of the fourth MOS unit are electrically connected to the first bus output through a ninth resistor; the resistance value of the ninth resistor is 10R.
[0089] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows:
[0090] The output voltage is provided by the positive and negative poles of the power supply. The polarity of the first bus output (A) and the second bus output (B) voltage is changed by the microcontroller unit (MCU) controlling the on and off of each MOS unit tube.
[0091] Figure 3 The third and fourth MOS cells cannot be turned on simultaneously, otherwise the positive and negative power supply electrodes will be directly short-circuited. The first and second MOS cells cannot be turned on simultaneously either. Alternatively, if the first and third MOS cells are turned on simultaneously, the voltages on both the first bus output (A) and the second bus output (B) will be the positive power supply electrode, and the voltage difference between them will be zero, which is unacceptable for communication. If the second and fourth MOS cells are turned on simultaneously, the voltages on both the first bus output (A) and the second bus output (B) will be the negative power supply electrode, which is also unacceptable for communication.
[0092] In the above description, the logic control shows that only when the first and fourth MOS cells are turned on simultaneously, the first bus output (A) becomes negative and the second bus output (B) becomes positive. Alternatively, when the third and second MOS cells are turned on simultaneously, the first bus output (A) becomes positive and the second bus output (B) becomes negative. By continuously switching between these two control logics, the polarity of the first bus output (A) and the second bus output (B) also continuously switches, achieving the desired communication waveform. The output logic table is shown below:
[0093] First MOS unit Second MOS unit The third MOS unit Fourth MOS unit First bus output Second bus output closure closure closure closure No output No output conduction closure closure conduction Output positive Output negative closure conduction conduction closure Output negative Output positive
[0094] When the output terminal is high level controlled, it is controlled by MCU and needs small current to control large current. P-MOS and N-MOS are used in combination. The principle is as follows Figure 4 The bus output current can reach over 500mA. This type of design uses very few components to achieve the control of large currents from small currents.
[0095] When outputting a low level, the voltage on a single bus will be pulled to a low level instantly. We can solve this problem by using only one N-MOS. The principle is as follows: Figure 5 shown.
[0096] This shows that the voltages on the first bus output (A) and the second bus output (B) are constantly switching. For example, if a voltmeter is connected to the positive terminal of the first bus output (A) and the negative terminal of the second bus output (B), when the first bus output (A) is high and the MOS transistor is turned on, and the second bus output (B) is low and the MOS transistor is turned on, the voltmeter will display a positive voltage. Conversely, a negative voltage will be displayed. When the switching speed is fast enough, a near-square wave waveform will be generated at the output terminals, thus achieving communication.
[0097] The sampling unit circuit is designed to monitor the current on the first bus output (A) and the second bus output (B) in real time. The resistors in the current sampling circuit use high-precision 10Ω sampling resistors. When current flows through the bus, it flows to GND through the sampling resistors, generating a voltage drop across the resistors. The MCU monitors the current by sampling this voltage drop.
[0098] The resistor of the resistance sampling circuit uses a 1K resistor. When there is current on the bus, the current will flow into GND through the sampling resistor, and a voltage drop will be generated on the resistor. The MCU monitors the resistance (voltage) by collecting the voltage drop on the resistor.
[0099] When the system of this embodiment is used, Figure 1 As shown, the dedicated chip in the electronic detonator matches the communication signal generated in this embodiment, so that communication with multiple electronic detonators can be carried out.
[0100] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model and are not limiting. Although the utility model is described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, ordinary technicians in this field should understand that the technical solution of the utility model can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the purpose and scope of the technical solution, which should be included in the scope of the claims of the utility model.
