[0024] With reference to the drawings of the embodiments of the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all the other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the scope of the present application.
[0025] Please refer to Figures 1-5 A system for simply expanding the number of relay drives of a PDU system, comprising a high-voltage control board one (high-voltage control board 1), a high-voltage control board two (high-voltage control board 2), a power supply positive, a power supply negative, a CANH and a CANL, the high-voltage control board is short-circuited with the high-voltage control board one by winding, the high-voltage control board one and the high-voltage control board two are parallelly connected with the power supply positive and the power supply negative for supplying power to the high-voltage control board one and the high-voltage control board two, and the power supply lines and the CAN lines of the high-voltage control board one and the high-voltage control board two are short-circuited.
[0026] The high-voltage control board one and the high-voltage control board two use DSP chips to send relay closing instructions and cooperate with peripheral circuits to drive a relay group, the DSP IO ports on the high-voltage control board one and the high-voltage control board two send driving signals for respectively controlling two relay groups, the BMS and the VCU are connected on the CAN line, the BMS and the VCU are used for sending instructions to the high-voltage control board one and the high-voltage control board two, the high-voltage control board one is connected with a relay one (relay 1) and a relay two (relay 2), the high-voltage control board two is connected with a relay three (relay 3) and a relay four (relay 4), the VCU is used for sending closing instructions to the relay one, the relay two and the relay three and real-time receiving the feedback states of the relay one, the relay two and the relay three, and the BMS is used for sending closing instructions to the relay four and real-time receiving the feedback state of the relay four.
[0027] The high-voltage control board one and the high-voltage control board two need to use different programs to distinguish, to realize the normal control of the relay after parallel connection, and the high-voltage control board one and the high-voltage control board two need to carry out corresponding state feedback when the BMS and the VCU send instructions to the high-voltage control board one and the high-voltage control board two, in order to avoid the same ID data that may cause program conflict (the high-voltage control board with relay one, relay two, relay three and relay four simultaneously sends the relay state of the BMS and the VCU, two frames of data with the same BMS or VCU ID appear on the bus at the same time, and the same ID data may cause program conflict), the high-voltage control board one or the high-voltage control board two can only upload the data of one ID of the BMS or the VCU, by sending internal data frames to the CAN line, the high-voltage control board one or the high-voltage control board two can obtain the relay state obtained by each other, and after internal integration, one high-voltage control board sends BMS data alone, and the other high-voltage control board sends VCU data alone. Through the above method, the parallel high-voltage control board can realize normal data reporting.
[0028] Since the parallel high-voltage control board needs to be connected in parallel with the CAN line, the software needs to be adjusted in the whole vehicle debugging software, so that the host computer can distinguish the difference between the two high-voltage control boards, different boot programs are written into the high-voltage control board one and the high-voltage control board two before burning the application program, and the different boot programs have different IDs. When downloading the program, the application program will jump to the boot program first, then erase the application program and then re-burn. Since the boot program uses different IDs, the host computer can distinguish the high-voltage control board one and the high-voltage control board two by ID when downloading the program. By burning different boot programs in advance, the smooth burning of the high-voltage control board one and the high-voltage control board two in the debugging process can be realized.
[0029] The control relay one, relay two, relay three and relay four, specifically includes the following steps:
