Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
[0026] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0027] like Figure 1-3 As shown, this utility model proposes an operational amplifier testing device, which includes a microcontroller 100, a power supply noise superposition module 200, an operational amplifier module under test 300, an amplification module 400, and a host computer 500. The power supply noise superposition module 200 is electrically connected to the microcontroller 100 to receive the PWM signal from the microcontroller 100. The power supply noise superposition module 200 performs voltage division and voltage superposition processing on the PWM signal. The power supply noise superposition module 200 is electrically connected to the operational amplifier module under test 300 and provides power to the amplification module 400. The amplification module 400 is electrically connected to the operational amplifier module under test 300 and receives the noise output by the operational amplifier module under test 300. The amplification module 400 amplifies the noise. The microcontroller 100 is electrically connected to the amplification module 400 and samples the noise to obtain a data signal. The host computer 500 is electrically connected to the microcontroller 100 and receives the data signal. The host computer 500 analyzes the data signal to generate a corresponding analysis report.
[0028] Specifically, the operational amplifier module 300 under test is placed in the operational amplifier testing equipment, and its input and output terminals are connected to the corresponding power supply noise superposition module 200 and amplification module 400, respectively. The microcontroller 100 outputs a PWM signal to the power supply noise superposition module 200. When the PWM signal is transmitted to the power supply noise superposition module 200, it needs to undergo voltage division and superposition processing. This is to reduce the voltage amplitude of the PWM signal to adapt to the input range of the amplifier. A fixed DC voltage is superimposed using a simple resistor or capacitor network to ensure electrical compatibility between the DC voltage and the PWM signal, as well as compatibility with the power supply noise superposition module 200. The input signals at the input and output ends are processed by the power supply noise superposition module 200, which amplifies the processed PWM signal and uses the amplified PWM signal as the power input of the operational amplifier module under test to evaluate its anti-interference capability against power supply noise. Then, the operational amplifier module under test 300 releases noise, which is received and amplified several times by the amplification module 400. The amplification factor is determined by the amplifier model used and the user requirements. The amplified noise signal is transmitted in voltage form and collected by the microcontroller 100. The microcontroller sends the collected data to the host computer through the serial port for analysis. After the analysis is completed, a report can be generated. This reduces noise from other interference sources during operational amplifier testing, thereby improving testing efficiency and effectiveness.
[0029] The microcontroller used in the 100 series is an STM32F030F4.
[0030] Furthermore, the power supply noise superposition module 200 includes a voltage divider unit 201 and a superposition unit 202. The voltage divider unit 201 is used to reduce the voltage amplitude, and the superposition unit 202 is used to output a fixed DC voltage. The microcontroller 100 and the power supply noise superposition module 200 are electrically connected to the voltage divider unit 201 and the superposition unit 202, respectively. The PWM signal of the microcontroller 100 is processed by the voltage divider unit 201 to reduce the voltage amplitude, and then the fixed DC voltage is superimposed by the superposition unit 202.
[0031] Specifically, since the duty cycle of the PWM signal can be adjusted, the voltage of the PWM signal after passing through the voltage divider unit 201 will also change with the change of the duty cycle. By adjusting the parameters of the voltage divider circuit in the voltage divider unit 201 and the superimposed DC voltage value, the output signal can be better matched with the input requirements of the subsequent circuit, thereby improving the signal compatibility and stability of the entire system. In addition, this method can also achieve some special control effects, such as bias adjustment and signal enhancement, by superimposing DC voltage.
[0032] Furthermore, the power supply noise superposition module 200 also includes an operational amplifier 203. The input terminal of the operational amplifier 203 is electrically connected to the microcontroller 100, and the output terminal of the operational amplifier 203 is electrically connected to the operational amplifier module under test 300. The operational amplifier 203 is used to receive and amplify the PWM signal processed by the voltage divider unit 201 and the superposition unit 202, and input the amplified PWM signal as the power input of the operational amplifier module under test 300. The operational amplifier 203 is electrically connected to an adjustment resistor 204, which is used to adjust the amplitude of the square wave superimposed on the PWM signal. The operational amplifier 203 is an LM358.
[0033] The amplifier module 400 includes a second-order low-pass amplifier, which is used to receive the noise from the operational amplifier module 300 under test and amplify the noise to output the amplified voltage. The second-order low-pass amplifier used is an LMV721.
