[0041] Further, the power management chip U2 is a SY6978 chip.
[0042] Working principle:
[0043] The resistor R3 and the resistor R10 constitute a voltage division circuit, and provide a detection signal for a voltage detection pin (a battery voltage monitoring GPIO port Battery_18650_ADC) of the microcontroller MCU; the capacitor C2 is designed to provide an initial state for a high resistance state output pin; the capacitor C4 and the capacitor C5 are decoupling capacitors in an IN and B+ 5V network of a No. 5 pin of the power management chip U2 (a SY6978 chip); the power management chip U2 (the SY6978 chip) can charge the external battery V18650 (a lithium ion battery) in a pre-charge, constant current (CC) mode or a constant voltage (CV) mode. When the voltage of the external battery V18650 is less than Vpchg (a pre-charge constant-charge transition rising threshold value), the power management chip U2 pre-charges the external battery V18650, and this function can restore the vitality of a deeply discharged battery and protect the service life of the battery. The pre-charge rate determined internally is 15% of a constant charging current. The charging current in the CC mode is determined by the duty cycle of a PWM signal. The CC current can be calculated by the following formula: Icc=500×PWM signal duty cycle (mA), and a PWM signal frequency in a range of 20 kHz to 200 kHz can be used, and the PWM signal frequency and the output current ripple are inversely proportional to the growth. When the voltage of the external battery V18650 approaches a battery voltage stabilization threshold value, the power management chip U2 enters a voltage stabilization stage, and the voltage stabilization state of the external battery V18650 is fed back through the No. 3 output pin OUT, so as to monitor the battery voltage between the No. 3 output pin OUT and the ground wire GND pin.
[0044] The power management chip U2 receives a voltage current from the No. 5 pin IN pin in the B+ 5V network, receives a pulse width modulation signal output by the microcontroller MCU through the No. 4 pin PWM to control the output current, and the No. 6 pin CHGB is in a low resistance state when the detected output voltage difference is positive. The microcontroller MCU can detect that it is in a charging state. When the voltage stabilization charging stage ends, that is, the battery voltage reaches an upper limit, the power management chip U2 automatically accesses a high resistance mode, indicating that the charging process has ended. In addition, in order to ensure that the PWM pulse width modulation signal maintains a good waveform at the receiving end of the chip, an RC filter circuit composed of the resistor R2 and the capacitor C8 is connected, which effectively prevents distortion and deformation of the PWM high-frequency signal caused by interference crosstalk noise.
[0045] The discharging process is controlled by the power chip U1 (a lithium battery protection chip). The SGM41100A-430O05 presets a maximum detection voltage of 4.3V and a minimum voltage of 2.8V. When the voltage of the external battery V18650 exceeds 4.3V or is lower than 2.8V, the ground wire GND connected to the first pin PCKN interface of the power chip U1 and the battery ground wire BGND connected to the second pin BATN interface of the power chip U1 are disconnected, so that the battery is forced to be disconnected from the power supply circuit, thereby preventing over-discharge of the battery.
[0046] The battery management system (BMS) and the power chip U1 (lithium battery protection chip) take measures to prevent the external battery V18650 (lithium battery) from overcharging and overdischarging, the BMS continuously monitors the voltage of the external battery, and sets a voltage threshold, when the battery cell voltage reaches the preset highest charging termination voltage (overcharge protection threshold), the BMS will immediately cut off the charging circuit to prevent the battery from overcharging. Similarly, when the external battery voltage is detected to drop to the minimum discharge termination voltage (overdischarge protection threshold), the power chip U1 will stop the discharge of the battery cell to prevent overdischarge. At the same time, the charging current is controlled to prevent the charging current from exceeding the safety threshold to prevent excessive current from causing the battery to overheat or damage.
[0047] The system mainly uses the Silicon Power SY6987A linear DC charging management chip to control the charging process, with its pre-set constant current / constant voltage / pre-charge three modes, and adjusts the output current through the PWM signal output by the microprocessor MCU of the smart meter, which can reach up to 500mA, and outputs the charging indication signal to the microprocessor MCU in the open drain state pin, when the external battery V18650 voltage approaches the threshold, it enters the voltage stabilization stage, reduces the charging current, and continues to monitor the battery voltage when the external battery V18650 voltage reaches or exceeds the set voltage, when the external battery V18650 voltage drops below the threshold voltage through hysteresis, the charging current is restored. The SGM41100-430O04YUDT6G lithium protection chip controls the discharge process, and when the external battery V18650 voltage is detected to decrease to the set threshold ± hysteresis amplitude range, the external battery V18650 power supply is cut off to ensure that the external battery V18650 voltage will not decrease to the damaged voltage interval.
[0048] The power chip U1 also includes short circuit protection and temperature protection functions. Short circuit protection: when a short circuit is detected at the output end, the power supply path is quickly disconnected to avoid damage to the battery due to large current flowing through it for a short time. Temperature protection: monitors the working temperature of the battery, if the temperature exceeds the safe range, measures such as stopping charging or discharging are taken to prevent danger caused by high temperature.
[0049] The above has described the utility model by way of example, but the utility model is not limited to the above specific embodiments, any modification or modification based on the utility model belongs to the scope of protection required by the utility model.
