[0034] Figure 3 It is the topological schematic diagram of current detection circuit in the utility model. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0035] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects of the utility model clearer and more apparent, the utility model will be further described in detail below in combination with the drawings and embodiments.

[0036] Therefore, one feature indicated in the specification will be used to explain one feature of one embodiment of the utility model, rather than implying that each embodiment of the utility model must have the explained feature. In addition, it should be noted that the specification describes many features. Although certain features can be combined together to show possible system designs, these features can also be used in other combinations that are not explicitly explained. Therefore, unless otherwise stated, the explained combinations are not intended to be limiting.

[0037] The principles and structures of the utility model will be described in detail below in combination with the drawings and embodiments.

[0038] There are many reasons for communication failure, one of which is that the communication chip corresponding to the communication type is damaged;

[0039] Another is that the main control chip is damaged;

[0040] At present, the display of the electric appliance can only display the existence of communication failure, but it cannot determine whether the communication failure is caused by the damage of the main control chip or the communication chip, so that the after-sales maintenance can only blindly try to replace the mainboard or the display board, and there is a lot of unnecessary workload.

[0041] The utility model gives the design scheme of the electric control system for accurately positioning the communication failure in view of the above problems, one of which is to determine whether the communication failure is caused by the damage of the first main control chip through the detection interface and the current detection circuit arranged at the detection interface;

[0042] The second is to capture the interval between the adjacent two rising edges in the communication signal through the timer, so as to determine whether the communication failure is caused by the damage of the communication chip;

[0043] The utility model can accurately determine whether the communication failure is caused by the damage of the first main control chip or the communication chip through the above scheme, can accurately position the fault condition in after-sales maintenance, improve the maintenance efficiency and reduce the maintenance cost.

[0044] It should be pointed out that, since the communication failure is divided into two kinds of main control chip damage and communication chip damage, therefore, when the communication failure occurs in the working board, the communication failure can be accurately determined through the above first or second scheme. For the first scheme, it can be determined whether the communication failure is caused by the damage of the main control chip, if it is determined that the communication failure is not caused by the damage of the main control chip, it can be determined that the communication failure at this time is caused by the damage of the communication chip;

[0045] Similarly, for the second solution, it can be determined whether the communication fault is a communication chip fault. If it is determined that the communication fault is not a communication chip fault, it can be determined that the communication fault at this time is a main control chip fault;

[0046] That is, both the first solution and the second solution in the present invention can achieve accurate determination of communication failures, and can be used in combination or individually.

[0047] The working principle of the electronic control system capable of locating communication faults in the present invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0048] The electric control system capable of locating communication faults proposed in the present invention includes at least one working board provided with a first main control chip and a communication chip, and a detection board connected to the working board;

[0049] like Figure 1 As shown, the working board referred to in the present invention is any one or more of the main board, display board, and driver board. For an electrical appliance, the main board generally serves as the control part of the electrical appliance, the driver board is used to drive the electrical appliance to perform corresponding actions, and the display board is used to display the working status of the electrical appliance, etc.

[0050] The main board, display board, and driver board all have the first main control chip and communication chip, and the communication failure occurs between the first main control chip and the communication chip;

[0051] The detection board is connected to the main board, display board, and driving board at the same time, and is used to detect whether there is a communication fault in the main board, display board, and driving board, and if there is a communication fault, determine the location of the communication fault.

[0052] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned electronic control system capable of locating communication faults, a communication signal is transmitted between the first main control chip and the communication chip, and the detection board has a detection interface connected between the first main control chip and the communication chip for obtaining the communication signal, and a current detection circuit provided at the detection interface for detecting the current magnitude of the communication signal;

[0053] The detection board locates the position of the communication fault according to the current size of the communication signal.

[0054] See Figure 2 , the left side is the working board, which has the first main control chip and the communication chip inside. Communication signals, namely TX (transmit) signal and RX (collect) signal, are transmitted between the first main control chip and the communication chip;

[0055] Under normal circumstances, the first main control chip communicates normally with the communication chip, and then the communication chip sends a communication signal to control the electrical appliance to perform the corresponding action;

[0056] When the communication fault occurs, the communication chip cannot obtain the communication signal sent by the first master chip, and thus cannot perform corresponding control on the electrical appliance.

[0057] The right side is a detection board, which has a second master chip and a detection interface inside, and the working board also has a corresponding detection interface, which can ensure that the detection board can be connected to the working board through the detection interface, so as to obtain the above-mentioned communication signal.

[0058] From Figure 2 It can be clearly seen that when the working board has a communication fault, the communication signal can be transmitted to the second master chip through the detection interface on the working board and the detection interface on the detection board in turn. Wherein, TX1 and RX1 represent the communication signal transmitted from the Figure 2 It can be seen that the communication signal can enter the detection board smoothly.

[0059] On the way of the detection interface outputting the TX1 signal, a resistance R1 and a current detection circuit are also arranged, and the resistance R1 is used as a sampling resistance and also belongs to the current detection circuit, and the current detection circuit can detect the current size of the TX1 signal, and since the TX1 signal is obtained from the first master chip, it is also a communication signal.

[0060] That is, the current detection circuit in the utility model can detect the current size of the communication signal, and the current size of the communication signal should be the same as the current size of the communication signal output by the first master chip under normal circumstances, otherwise, when the first master chip is damaged, the current size of the communication signal detected by the current detection circuit is different from the current size of the communication signal output by the first master chip.

[0061] Therefore, the utility model can locate the position of the communication fault according to the current size of the communication signal.

[0062] The above-mentioned beneficial effect 1 is realized through the above-mentioned scheme.

[0063] The utility model is provided with a detection interface, and a current detection circuit is arranged at the detection interface, which can be used to detect the current size of the communication signal, and according to the current size and the current size of the communication signal output by the first master chip, whether the communication fault is the damage of the first master chip is determined.

[0064] Further, the utility model further includes an I / O input interface arranged on the working board and an I / O output interface arranged on the detection board, and the I / O input interface and the I / O output interface are connected to transmit I / O signals.

[0065] The detection board has a second master control chip, which provides I / O signals for the I / O output interface when detecting that the working board has communication failure.

[0066] Please refer to Figure 2 , the left side is the working board, and the I / O input interface is arranged on the working board, and the right side is the detection board, and the I / O output interface is arranged on the detection board, and the I / O output interface is arranged on the detection board. Figure 2 It can be seen from the above that the I / O signal can be transmitted between the I / O input interface and the I / O output interface.

[0067] When detecting that there is communication failure, it is often impossible to repair immediately, but at this time, the communication function needs to be executed, and the I / O input interface and the I / O output interface are arranged in the utility model, which can ensure that the corresponding I / O signal is normally provided for the working board when the working board has communication failure, so that the I / O output interface of the second master control chip on the detection board can replace the first master control chip to perform the running function.

[0068] The above-mentioned beneficial effect 2 is realized by the above-mentioned scheme.

[0069] The utility model sets up I / O output interface on the detection board, and sets up I / O input interface on the working board, can provide I / O signal for the working board through the detection board, when detecting that the communication failure is the first master control chip damage, the utility model can use the first master control chip on the detection board to provide I / O signal for the working board, so that the working board normally runs.

[0070] Please refer to Figure 3 , the current detection circuit in the utility model includes: resistance R1, resistance R2, resistance R3, resistance R4, resistance R5, amplifier U1;

[0071] Among them, resistance R1 is connected in series in the output circuit of the detection interface to obtain the communication signal, one end of resistance R2 is connected to one side of resistance R1, the other end of resistance R2 is connected to the inverting input terminal of amplifier U1, one end of resistance R3 is connected to the other side of resistance R1, the other end of resistance R3 is connected to the noninverting input terminal of amplifier U1;

[0072] Resistance R5 is connected in series in the output circuit of amplifier U1;

[0073] One end of resistance R4 is connected between resistance R3 and the noninverting input terminal of amplifier U1, and the other end of resistance R4 is connected between resistance R5 and the output terminal of amplifier U1.

[0074] Its working principle is:

[0075] The resistance R1 is used as a sampling resistance, and since it is connected in series to the output line of the detection interface, according to the working principle of the series circuit, the current at each position in the series circuit is equal, and thus the current on the resistance R1 is equal to the current of the communication signal, and in the utility model, the current on the resistance R1 is only detected, and thus the current of the communication signal can be obtained;

[0076] The amplifier U1, the resistance R2, the resistance R3 and the resistance R4 form an amplification circuit, and the current signal is converted into a voltage signal which is easy to detect, and the purpose of designing the amplification circuit is to facilitate detection, and in many cases, the current of the communication signal is small and cannot be accurately detected, and the utility model can realize the detection of the current of the communication signal by constructing the amplification circuit, amplifying the current signal and outputting the current signal in the form of a voltage.

[0077] The resistance R5 is used as a protection resistance, and the current output from the amplifier U1 is large, and thus the resistance R5 is arranged to avoid damaging the subsequent circuit.

[0078] Please refer to Figure 3 The utility model also comprises a filter circuit arranged at the output end of the current detection circuit, and the filter circuit comprises a capacitor C1.

[0079] One end of the capacitor C1 is connected to one end of the resistance R5 and the amplifier U1, and the other end of the capacitor C1 is grounded.

[0080] Here, the capacitor C1 is used as a filter capacitor and is used for filtering the current signal output from the amplifier U1, so as to avoid the interference of the noise signal.

[0081] Specifically, the principle for determining the damage of the first main control chip by the current detection circuit in the utility model is as follows:

[0082] When the current detected by the current detection circuit is different from the current of the communication signal output from the first main control chip, the communication failure is caused by the damage of the first main control chip.

[0083] Please refer to Figures 2 to 3 The whole process for determining the communication failure by the current detection circuit in the utility model is as follows:

[0084] When the communication between the communication chip and the first main control chip is disconnected, or when the first main control chip and other communication chips have a communication failure, the detection board first detects the current of the TX1 signal.

[0085] The current detection circuit obtains the current of the TX1 signal through a sampling resistor R1, and since the resistance value of the sampling resistor R1 is small, the current signal needs to be amplified by a certain multiple through an amplification circuit and then converted into a voltage signal, the second main control chip of the detection board reads the voltage value of the current detection signal and obtains the current size of the TX signal through calculation, if the TX current size is the same as the current size output by the first main control chip, it can be judged that the first main control chip has output the transceiving signal pair (namely, the TX signal and the RX signal), otherwise, it can be judged that the first main control chip has no output transceiving signal pair, and it can be determined that the communication failure reason is that the first main control chip is damaged.

[0086] Further, the utility model discloses still include setting in detection board's timer, timer is used to capture the interval period of adjacent two rising sides in communication signal.

[0087] Since the timer is a conventional setting, therefore in the drawings of the utility model, has not given the schematic specifically.

[0088] The utility model discloses the logic for determining communication failure based on the above timer is:

[0089] When the reciprocal of the greatest common divisor of all interval periods captured in the timer is consistent with the set baud rate, the communication failure is that the communication chip is damaged.

[0090] Its specific principle is:

[0091] When the first main control chip has output the transceiving signal pair (namely, the TX signal and the RX signal), the second main control chip of the detection board detects the baud rate of the transceiving signal pair (namely, the TX signal and the RX signal) by using the capture function.

[0092] The baud rate detection mode is that the timer opens the capture function, records the time used for opening the function to capture the first rising side of the transceiving signal pair and the interval period of capturing adjacent two rising sides and falling sides.

[0093] Then sort the period data, and the data is in a ladder shape, the first ladder is the duration of one-bit data, the second ladder is the duration of two-bit data, and so on.

[0094] Therefore, the second data is twice the first data, the third data is three times the first data, and the minimum common divisor of these sorted data is calculated to determine whether the reciprocal of the minimum common divisor is consistent with the set baud rate.

[0095] If consistent, it can be explained that the baud rate is correct, and the communication chip needs to be replaced if the baud rate is correct.

[0096] Otherwise, if the baud rate is incorrect, it means that the first main control chip is damaged.

[0097] It realizes the above beneficial effect 1 by the above scheme:

[0098] The utility model discloses a timer is provided for capturing the interval period of adjacent two rising edges in communication signal, thereby determining whether the communication failure is communication chip damage.

[0099] In conclusion, the utility model discloses the setting of current detection circuit and the setting of timer realize the above beneficial effect 1 in:

[0100] The utility model discloses a detection interface is provided with current detection circuit simultaneously at the detection interface, can be used to detect the current size of communication signal, and according to the current size and the current size of the communication signal that the first main control chip exports, determine whether the communication failure is the first main control chip damage;

[0101] Meanwhile, the utility model discloses a timer is provided for capturing the interval period of adjacent two rising edges in communication signal, thereby determining whether the communication failure is communication chip damage.

[0104] For the communication process of mainboard, display board and drive board, communication is carried out through main control chip and communication chip, so the detection logic of the above-mentioned mainboard, display board and drive board is not different for the detection process of detection board, so the workboard in the utility model can be any one of the above-mentioned mainboard, display board and drive board.
