Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to detection circuit technical field, especially relate to a state detection circuit, battery management system and battery package. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the increasing demand for clean energy and the improvement of environmental awareness, new energy technology is rapidly developing. Small lithium battery package as an energy storage solution plays an increasingly important role in new energy systems such as portable electronic devices, Internet of Things (IoT) devices, and communication base station backup power. Especially in shared electric bicycles and portable power, the application of small lithium battery communication base station backup power becomes more widespread. In these scenarios, due to portability, special sensing devices need to be added for human motion sensing (such as interaction, safety, theft prevention, etc.), but such devices need to work in real time, and in addition, they are usually small battery packages (which can also not be particularly large in terms of available power), so their power consumption needs to be exceptionally low, and whenever there is a human interaction signal, they need to activate immediately.
[0003] Based on the above requirements, when redesigning the battery management system of the small lithium battery package, gyroscopes, Bluetooth, NB-lot, and other electronic devices are generally added, and when not working, the host will generally put them into hibernation, but the host cannot let them hibernate all the time, because the host needs to know if they are still online. Therefore, the corresponding technology is needed to detect whether the low-power electronic device is online.
[0004] The prior art generally adds a current sensor to sample the current from the device power supply loop, and outputs a voltage value to the single-chip microcomputer sampling port, but this cannot handle uA-level work of low-power electronic devices; even with complex sampling and analog amplification circuit conditioning, there is still a risk of false collection.
[0005] In the prior art, there is also a solution that uses an indefinite period of communication to determine whether it is running normally. This solution cannot be applied to low-power electronic devices without communication. At the same time, since it will periodically wake up for a period of time and then enter low-power mode, it still essentially increases the power consumption of the small battery package.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0040] With increasing global demand for clean energy and growing environmental awareness, new energy technologies are developing rapidly. Small lithium-ion battery packs, as energy storage solutions, are playing an increasingly important role in new energy systems such as portable electronic devices, Internet of Things (IoT) devices, and backup power supplies for communication base stations. Their application is particularly widespread in shared electric bicycles and portable power banks, serving as backup power supplies for communication base stations. In these scenarios, due to their portability, special sensing devices are needed for human-like motion perception (e.g., interaction, security, anti-theft). However, these devices need to operate in real-time, and given that they are typically small battery packs (which don't have a particularly large capacity), their power consumption must be exceptionally low, and they must be activated immediately whenever a human interaction signal is detected.
[0041] Based on the above requirements, when designing a battery management system for a small lithium battery pack, electronic devices such as gyroscopes, Bluetooth, and NB-IoT are typically incorporated. When not in use, these devices are usually put into sleep mode by the host computer. However, the host computer cannot keep them in sleep mode indefinitely, as it needs to know whether they are still online. Therefore, corresponding technologies are required to detect whether low-power electronic devices are online.
[0042] Existing technologies typically involve adding a current sensor to the power supply circuit of the device to sample the current and outputting the voltage value to the microcontroller's sampling port. However, this approach cannot handle low-power electronic devices operating at the uA level. Even with complex sampling and analog amplification circuitry, erroneous data acquisition is still possible.
[0043] In existing technologies, there is another approach that uses intermittent communication to determine whether the device is operating normally. This approach cannot be applied to low-power electronic devices without communication capabilities. Furthermore, because it periodically wakes up and operates for a period before entering low-power mode, it inherently increases the power consumption of the small battery pack.
[0044] Therefore, refer to Figs. 1 to 3 To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model proposes a state detection circuit applied to a battery management system, wherein the battery management system includes electronic equipment; the state detection circuit includes:
[0045] The acquisition circuit 10 is connected in series in the electrical circuit between the electronic device and the power supply terminal; the acquisition circuit 10 includes a diode module 11, the anode of the diode module 11 is electrically connected to the acquisition circuit 10, and the cathode of the diode module 11 is grounded;
[0046] The acquisition circuit 10 is used to acquire the current of the electronic device and output a corresponding first voltage signal through the anode of the diode module 11;
[0047] The signal conditioning circuit 20 is electrically connected to the anode of the diode module 11. The signal conditioning circuit 20 is used to output a conditioning detection signal after the first voltage signal is conditioned.
[0048] A control circuit 30 is electrically connected to the output terminal of the signal conditioning circuit; the control circuit 30 is used to receive the conditioning detection signal output by the signal conditioning circuit to confirm the working status of the electronic device.
[0049] In this embodiment, the acquisition circuit 10 can be implemented using a current detection circuit including a diode module 11. The diode module 11 includes diodes, with the anode of the diode electrically connected to the electronic device and the cathode of the diode electrically connected to ground; or, the diode module 11 includes a first diode D1 to an Nth diode connected in series, with the cathode of the first diode D1 grounded, the anode of the Nth diode electrically connected to the electronic device, and the anode of the (n-1)th diode connected to the cathode of the nth diode; where N is a positive integer greater than or equal to 2, and n is a positive integer greater than 1 and less than or equal to N. It is understood that the diode module 11 can be configured with one or more diodes depending on the actual detection requirements. When the diode module 11 uses only one diode, the anode of that diode is electrically connected to the input terminal of the electronic device and the signal conditioning circuit 20, and the cathode is grounded. When the diode module 11 uses multiple diodes, the diodes need to be connected in series. It is understood that the state detection circuit proposed in this application is applied to the detection of low-power electronic devices. Therefore, the operating current of electronic devices is generally below 1mA. Utilizing the characteristic that the diode voltage drop increases proportionally to the current within 1mA, meaning that when there is no current in the electronic device, the initial output voltage signal is 0V, approximately 0.2V at 100uA, and approximately 0.7V at 1mA. When two diode modules 11 are used, and a parallel resistor shares part of the current, a voltage change of 0.1V-1.4V will occur between 30-200uA. Therefore, using a data acquisition circuit 10 including diode module 11 to detect the current of the electronic device can obtain a more accurate detection signal.
[0050] Optionally, N is 2, and the diode module 11 includes a first diode D1, a second diode D2, and a first resistor R1; wherein, the anode of the first diode D1 is electrically connected to the electronic device, the first terminal of the first resistor R1, and the input terminal of the signal conditioning circuit 20, and the cathode of the first diode D1 is electrically connected to the anode of the second diode D2; the cathode of the second diode D2 is electrically connected to the second terminal of the first resistor R1 and the ground terminal.
[0051] In this embodiment, the signal conditioning circuit 20 can be implemented using a corresponding signal amplification circuit 21 and a filtering circuit. The signal amplification circuit 21 can be implemented using a common-emitter amplifier circuit, an operational amplifier circuit, etc.; the filtering circuit can be implemented using a low-pass filter circuit, a band-pass filter circuit, etc. Further, the signal conditioning circuit 20 includes a signal amplification circuit 21. The input terminal of the signal amplification circuit 21 is electrically connected to the output terminal of the acquisition circuit 10, and the output terminal of the signal amplification circuit 21 is electrically connected to the control circuit 30. The signal amplification circuit 21 is used to receive the first voltage signal and output an amplified detection signal after signal amplification processing. The signal amplification circuit 21 is a non-inverting amplifier circuit. Through correlation settings with the control circuit 30, it amplifies the first voltage signal output by the acquisition circuit 10 to a corresponding voltage value, so that when the control circuit 30 receives the voltage signal, it can confirm the operating status of the electronic device. Optionally, the signal amplification circuit 21 includes a second resistor R2, a third resistor R3, and an operational amplifier OPA; wherein, the first end of the second resistor R2 is electrically connected to the ground terminal, and the second end of the second resistor R2 is electrically connected to the inverting input terminal of the operational amplifier and the first end of the second resistor R2; the second end of the third resistor R3 is electrically connected to the output terminal of the operational amplifier OPA and the control circuit 30; and the non-inverting input terminal of the operational amplifier OPA is electrically connected to the output terminal of the acquisition circuit 10.
[0052] In this embodiment, the control circuit 30 can be implemented using an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array), PLC (Programmable Logic Controller), MCU (Microcontroller Unit), DSP (Digital Signal Processor), or SOC (System on Chip). The conditioning detection signal is a corresponding level signal, allowing the control circuit 30 to quickly confirm the operating status of the electronic device upon receiving the conditioning detection signal output by the conditioning detection circuit. For example, when the control circuit 30 receives a low-level signal, it can confirm that the electronic device is offline; when it receives a high-level signal, it can confirm that the electronic device is online.
[0053] By employing a state detection circuit, the detection accuracy of the electronic devices within the battery management system can be effectively improved. The state detection circuit includes a data acquisition circuit 10, a signal conditioning circuit 20, and a control circuit 30. The data acquisition circuit 10 includes a diode module 11 connected in series in the electrical circuit between the electronic device and the power supply. The anode of the diode module 11 is electrically connected to the data acquisition circuit 10, and the cathode of the diode module 11 is grounded, thereby acquiring the current of the electronic device and outputting a corresponding first voltage signal through the anode of the diode module 11. Furthermore, the signal conditioning circuit 20 conditions the input first voltage signal, thereby outputting a conditioned detection signal so that the control circuit 30 can accurately obtain the operating state of the electronic device. By utilizing the characteristics of the diode module 11, the current of the electronic device can be obtained more accurately. Therefore, the detection accuracy of the electronic devices within the battery management system can be effectively improved.
[0054] refer to Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 In one embodiment of this utility model, the signal conditioning circuit 20 further includes:
[0055] The first filtering circuit 22 has its input terminal electrically connected to the output terminal of the acquisition circuit 10, and its output terminal electrically connected to the input terminal of the signal amplification circuit 21. The first filtering circuit 22 is used to receive the first voltage signal output by the first filtering circuit 22 and output it after filtering.
[0056] The second filter circuit 23 has its input terminal electrically connected to the output terminal of the signal amplification circuit 21, and its output terminal electrically connected to the control circuit 30. The second filter circuit 23 is used to receive the amplified detection signal output by the signal amplification circuit 21, and output a conditioned detection signal after filtering.
[0057] In this embodiment, both the first filter circuit 22 and the second filter circuit 23 are implemented using low-pass filter circuits. This is because the object acquired by the acquisition circuit 10 is a low-power electronic device with a small resting current. Therefore, a low-pass filter circuit is needed to filter out high-frequency noise to obtain a more accurate detection signal. Furthermore, after the first voltage signal is filtered by the first filter circuit 22, it is input to the signal amplification circuit 21. After being amplified by the signal amplification circuit 21, the amplified detection signal is output to the second filter circuit 23. After filtering by the second filter circuit 23, the conditioned detection signal is output to the control circuit 30. It is understood that the first filter circuit 22 and the second filter circuit 23 can effectively improve the accuracy of the signal input to the control circuit 30, thereby reducing the probability of misjudgment by the control circuit 30.
[0058] Optionally, the first filter circuit 22 includes a fourth resistor R4 and a first capacitor C1;
[0059] The first end of the fourth resistor R4 is electrically connected to the output end of the acquisition circuit 10, and the second end of the fourth resistor R4 is electrically connected to the first end of the first capacitor C1 and the input end of the signal amplification circuit 21; the second end of the first capacitor C1 is electrically connected to the ground end.
[0060] The second filter circuit 23 includes a fifth resistor R5 and a second capacitor C2;
