Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of circuit technology, and more specifically, to a programmable resistive load circuit. Background Technology

[0002] In electronics and electrical engineering, resistance boxes are commonly used for precise measurement of resistance values ​​and for fine-tuning resistance. The principle of a resistance box is to combine multiple fixed resistive elements together, changing the overall resistance value by altering the connection method of these elements. By rotating or adjusting the controller of the resistance box, the connection relationship between the elements can be changed, thus achieving continuous adjustment of the resistance value. However, some adjustable load resistance circuits have appeared on the market. Compared to resistance boxes, these adjustable load resistance circuits use microcontroller control, offering greater precision and stability.

[0003] For example, a numerically controlled variable resistor circuit (publication number: CN213874737U, publication date: 2021-08-03) includes a power supply VCC, a voltage regulator LDO, an NTC analog port P1, capacitors T1 and T2, a microcontroller MCU, a resistor R1, and a four-channel variable resistor module. The positive input terminal IN+ of the NTC analog port P1 is connected to the ground signal GND. The power supply VCC is connected to pin 3 of the voltage regulator LDO. Pin 2 of the voltage regulator LDO is connected to one end of capacitor T1 through resistor R1. The other end of capacitor T1 is connected to the ground signal GND. The other end of capacitor T1 is also connected to the microcontroller MCU. Capacitor T1 and capacitor T2 are connected in parallel. One end of capacitor T1 is connected to the microcontroller MCU.

[0004] This circuit controls the level of the C1 to C40 terminals through a microcontroller (MCU) to control the MOSFET's on or off state, thereby generating different resistance values ​​and automating the simulated temperature test of the protection board. However, this circuit does not take into account the internal resistance of the MOSFET. When multiple MOSFETs are connected in series, it will have a certain impact on the generated resistance value.
