[0029] Embodiment One

[0030] The present embodiment one provides a marine microphone control circuit, as shown in the accompanying drawings, comprising: Figure 1

[0031] a first power supply 101;

[0032] a first current limiting module 102, a first end of which is connected to the first power supply 101;

[0033] a voltage stabilizing module 103, a first end of which is connected to a second end of the first current limiting module 102 and a first end of the microphone 10 respectively, and a second end of which is connected to a second end of the microphone 10, for stabilizing voltage of the microphone 10;

[0034] a mechanical button 104, a first end of which is connected to the second end of the microphone 10, and a second end of which is grounded, for powering on the microphone when turned on, and powering off the microphone when turned off;

[0035] ​a voltage detection module 105, a first end of which is connected to the first power supply 101, a second end of which is connected to the second end of the microphone 10, for outputting a first voltage from a third end when the mechanical button 104 is turned on, and outputting a second voltage from the third end when the mechanical button 104 is turned off;

[0036] a control module 106, a voice signal output end of which is connected to the first end of the microphone 10, a signal detection end of which is connected to the third end of the voltage detection module 105, for outputting a voice signal to the microphone 10 when the mechanical button 104 is turned on by detecting the first voltage, and stopping outputting the voice signal to the microphone 10 when the mechanical button 104 is turned off by detecting the second voltage.

[0037] The marine microphone control circuit aims to effectively control the voice signal output of the microphone 10 and solve the noise problem caused by the release of the mechanical button 104. The functions of each module are as follows: The first power supply 101 provides power to each module of the circuit, ensuring the normal operation of the circuit. The first power supply 101 provides stable DC power to the rest of the circuit, ensuring the normal operation of the voltage stabilizing module 103, the first current limiting module 102, and the voltage detection module 105, etc. The first current limiting module 102 controls the current to avoid excessive current in the circuit to protect the circuit from damage. The first end of the first current limiting module 102 is connected to the first power supply 101, which limits the current passing through the circuit to protect the subsequent circuit (such as the microphone 10 circuit) from damage caused by excessive current. The voltage stabilizing module 103 provides a stable voltage for the microphone 10. The function of the voltage stabilizing module 103 is to adjust the voltage to keep the microphone 10 always at a stable working voltage, thereby ensuring the stable performance of the microphone 10. The mechanical button 104 controls the voice signal output of the microphone 10. Pressing the button starts the signal output of the microphone 10, and when the button is released, a mechanical rebound "bang" sound will be produced. The negative pole of the microphone and the ground are disconnected at the same time, and there is no need for the control module to detect to turn off the audio path of the microphone to prevent the "bang" sound of the mechanical rebound of the plastic shell from being transmitted to the audio path. The voltage detection module 105 detects the state of the mechanical button 104 (whether it is on or off) and outputs different voltage signals. When the mechanical button 104 is on (pressed), the voltage detection module 105 outputs a first voltage; when the button is off (released), it outputs a second voltage. These two voltage signals indicate whether the microphone 10 should continue to work. The control module 106 controls the voice signal output of the microphone 10 according to the voltage signal of the voltage detection module 105. The voice signal output end of the control module 106 is connected to the first end of the microphone 10, which is responsible for providing voice signals to the microphone 10. When the voltage detection module 105 detects the first voltage (i.e. the mechanical button 104 is on), the control module 106 outputs voice signals to the microphone 10, allowing the microphone 10 to emit voice; when the voltage detection module 105 detects the second voltage (i.e. the mechanical button 104 is released), the control module 106 stops outputting voice signals to the microphone 10, cutting off the signal output of the microphone 10. The working process is as follows: the user presses the mechanical button 104, the voltage detection module 105 outputs the first voltage, and the control module 106 detects the signal and provides voice signals to the microphone 10, and the microphone 10 starts to work and transmit voice signals. The user releases the mechanical button 104, the voltage detection module 105 outputs the second voltage, and the control module 106 detects the signal and stops outputting voice signals to the microphone 10, and the microphone 10 stops working. Through this design, the mechanical rebound noise of the microphone 10 when the button is released can be effectively avoided, thereby ensuring the clarity and quality of voice communication.

[0038] The technical effect of the technical solution provided by the embodiment one is that: by integrating the voltage detection module and the control module, the accurate control of the microphone voice signal is realized, when the mechanical key is turned on, the circuit can quickly detect and enable the voice signal output; when the mechanical key is released, the microphone is powered off, thereby effectively eliminating the noise interference caused by mechanical rebound when the key is released, not only improving the communication sound quality and ensuring the clear listening of the receiving party, but also significantly enhancing the reliability and user experience of ship communication, meeting the demand of high-quality communication of ships in complex sea environment.

[0039] As an implementation manner, as shown in Figure 2 The first current limiting module 102 includes a first resistor R1, a third resistor R3 and a first capacitor C1, the first end of the first resistor R1 is the first end of the first current limiting module 102, the second end of the first resistor R1 is connected with the first end of the first capacitor C1 and the first end of the third resistor R3 respectively, and the second end of the first capacitor C1 and the second end of the third resistor R3 are the second end of the first current limiting module 102.

[0040] The voltage stabilizing module 103 includes a third capacitor C3, the first end of the third capacitor C3 is the first end of the voltage stabilizing module 103, and the second end of the third capacitor C3 is the second end of the voltage stabilizing module 103.

[0041] The voltage detection module 105 includes a second resistor R2 and a fourth resistor R4, the first end of the second resistor R2 is the first end of the voltage detection module 105, the second end of the second resistor R2 and the first end of the fourth resistor R4 are commonly connected as the third end of the voltage detection module 105, and the second end of the fourth resistor R4 is the second end of the voltage detection module 105.

[0042] The marine microphone control circuit further includes a second capacitor C2, the first end of the second capacitor C2 is connected with the first end of the microphone 10, and the second end of the second capacitor C2 is connected with the output end of the control module 106.

[0043] When the mechanical key S1 is pressed, the voltage on the fourth resistor R4 becomes low, and when the MCU detects the low voltage, the transmission program is started. When the transmission is finished and the mechanical key S1 is released, the voltage on the fourth resistor R4 becomes high, and when the MCU detects the high voltage, the closing transmission program is started. At the same time of releasing the key S1, the negative electrode of the microphone B1 and the ground are also synchronously disconnected, there is no current, and the work is stopped. The mechanical sound transmitted into the audio path is basically solved in real time, and the control circuit structure of the prior art for controlling the on-off of the microphone through the field effect tube is simplified, and the cost is saved.

[0044] Further, as shown in Figure 3As shown, in order to reduce the influence of the harsh environment on the audio signal, the marine microphone control circuit further comprises a temperature and humidity sensor module 201, a temperature and humidity signal processing module 202, a gain module 203, a voltage-stabilized temperature compensation module 204, and a filter dynamic adjustment module 205; the temperature and humidity sensor module 201 is connected to the temperature and humidity signal processing module 202, the temperature and humidity signal processing module 202 is connected to the control module 106, the control module 106 is connected to the gain module 203, the gain module 203 is connected to the voltage-stabilized temperature compensation module 204, and the voltage-stabilized temperature compensation module 204 is connected to the filter dynamic adjustment module 205.

[0045] The temperature and humidity sensor module 201 can be DHT22 (digital signal output, suitable for ship environment) or SHT31 (supports digital I2C signal), which is used to collect environmental temperature and humidity data. The temperature and humidity signal processing module 202 uses an analog-to-digital conversion module (ADC) such as ADS1115 to convert the output signal of the sensor into a digital signal, and inputs the digital signal into the control module 106 (such as STM32 or Arduino) for real-time analysis. The control module 106 generates a control signal according to the set temperature and humidity compensation algorithm. The gain module 203 uses a digital adjustable gain amplifier such as OPA861 or MAX9724, which is placed in the microphone signal channel. The control module 106 generates a control signal according to the temperature and humidity data, adjusts the gain of the amplifier through the I2C or SPI interface, and compensates for the signal attenuation caused by changes in temperature and humidity. The voltage-stabilized temperature compensation module 204 uses a temperature-compensated voltage regulator such as LM317 or other linear voltage regulators with temperature compensation function. A thermistor (NTC or PTC) is added to the power supply circuit to detect the circuit temperature in real time. The temperature signal adjusts the output of the voltage regulator through the control module 106 to ensure the stability of the power supply voltage of the microphone. The filter dynamic adjustment module 205 uses an active filter (such as a Sallen-Key structure filter), and the control module 106 adjusts the cutoff frequency of the filter according to the temperature and humidity signal to optimize the microphone signal processing.

[0046] The temperature and humidity data is collected by a sensor such as DHT22, and the temperature and humidity signal is transmitted to the micro-control module 106 through the ADC module. The control module 106 generates gain adjustment, filter adjustment, and voltage compensation signals according to the preset compensation algorithm. The gain module 203 and the voltage-stabilized temperature compensation module 204 adjust the gain parameter of the gain amplifier according to the real-time temperature and humidity data to optimize the signal strength and dynamically change the frequency response of the filter to eliminate low-frequency or high-frequency noise caused by environmental influences. The voltage-stabilized temperature compensation module 204 detects the circuit temperature and stabilizes the power supply voltage of the microphone by adjusting the voltage regulator or thermistor circuit.

[0047] Through the above-mentioned compensation circuit design, the change of temperature and humidity in the ship environment can be effectively coped with, and the intelligibility and stability of the microphone voice signal are improved.
