[0022] Embodiment 1

[0023] Referring to Figure 1 The embodiment provides a small-module high-voltage isolation circuit, which comprises a wide-body isolation module 100, a transformer driving circuit 110, an isoSPI interface 120 and a monitoring circuit 130.

[0024] Specifically, the wide-body isolation module 100 internally comprises at least a first transformer channel 210 and a second transformer channel 220. The first transformer channel 210 has a transformation ratio of 1:1.5, and its primary side pins comprise TD+1, CT2 and TD-3, and its secondary side pins comprise 12TX+, 11CT and 10TX-. The second transformer channel 220 has a transformation ratio of 1:1, and its primary side pins comprise RD+4, CT5 and RD-6, and its secondary side pins comprise 9RX+, 8CT and 7RX-.

[0025] The first transformer channel 210 is used for high-voltage driving / power supply isolation, and the second transformer channel 220 is used for isoSPI communication signal isolation. The shell is made of high-voltage-resistant insulating material and is designed by a winding process of increasing the creepage distance, and the creepage distance between the primary side and the secondary side is greater than or equal to 15 mm, so as to meet the creepage distance requirement of a 1500V system.

[0026] The transformer driving circuit 110 is connected to the first transformer channel 210 through the pins TD+1, TD-3 and CT2, and is used for providing a high-voltage driving signal or an excitation signal to the first transformer channel 210. The transformer driving circuit 110 internally comprises a PWM generation and level conversion module, which is used for converting an external power supply or signal into a waveform suitable for driving the primary side of the first transformer channel 210 and inputting the waveform into the wide-body isolation module 100 through the pins TD+1 and TD-3. CT2 can be used for auxiliary control or synchronization signal and is connected to the primary side of the transformer through appropriate impedance matching or coupling capacitors.

[0027] The isoSPI interface 120 is connected to the left pins RD+4, CT5 and RD-6 of the second transformer channel 220, and is used for inputting or outputting an isoSPI communication signal to the wide-body isolation module 100. If necessary, an EMI filter or an impedance matching device can be added between RD+4 and RD-6, so as to suppress high-frequency noise and ensure communication quality.

[0028] The monitoring circuit 130 is connected with the right pins 9RX+, 8CT, 7RX- of the second transformer channel 220, for receiving and processing the communication signals isolated from the isoSPI interface 120 through the wide-body isolation module 100; the right pins 12TX+, 11CT, 10TX- of the first transformer channel 210 are connected with the monitoring circuit 130, for providing high-voltage driving or auxiliary power supply to the monitoring circuit 130, and being able to monitor the high-voltage side signals, such as detecting the output level of the high-voltage driving side, monitoring the isoSPI communication data, etc.; the internal part can contain an analog-digital conversion module or a special communication transceiver, for collecting and processing the high-voltage driving or power supply signals output from the right pins 12TX+, 10TX- of the first transformer channel 210 and the isoSPI signals output from the right pins 9RX+, 7RX- of the second transformer channel 220, respectively.

[0029] Further, when the right pin 11CT of the first transformer channel 210 is connected with the monitoring circuit 130 or the related detection / power supply unit thereof, a signal coupling capacitor, a current limiting resistor or other protection elements can be additionally arranged between the pin and the monitoring circuit 130, to realize necessary noise filtering, voltage clamping or safety isolation.

[0030] Further, the wide-body isolation module 100 is further provided with a metal shielding layer or a ground reference layer between the first transformer channel 210 and the second transformer channel 220.

[0031] When the transformer driving circuit 110 works, the excitation waveform is applied to the primary winding of the first transformer channel 210 through TD+1 and TD-3, and the corresponding high-voltage driving monitoring signals are output from the pins 12TX+, 10TX- of the secondary side after transformer coupling.

[0033] The two channels are completely independent internally, and have a creepage distance ≥15mm between the primary side and the secondary side of each channel, which ensures the high-voltage safety under the platform of 1500V.

[0034] Compared with using two independent transformers, the single wide-body isolation module 100 can not only meet the high-voltage insulation requirements, but also significantly save the PCB space.

[0035] The circuit, by increasing the transformer appearance size satisfies the creepage distance requirement, simultaneously internally integrated two independent channels, adopts isolation processing between the channels, therefore can simultaneously connect the power supply and the daisy chain signal, compared with two independent layout modules, this scheme not only can satisfy 1500V creepage requirement, but also can save the original 1 / 3 PCB layout space.
