[0036] In one embodiment, the flow sensor circuit board further includes a first switching power supply circuit, which is a 12V to 3.3V switching power supply.

[0039] In one embodiment, the testing apparatus further includes a display connected to the motherboard under test and the first switching power supply circuit, respectively, for receiving test requests input by the user and displaying test results. Specifically, the display is connected to the motherboard under test via an Ethernet network interface, enabling testing of the network interface and data transmission. Through the display, testers can click a one-click test button to test the status of various interfaces on the motherboard under test. After the test is completed, the test results are displayed on the display.

[0040] Combination Figure 9 Test process description: The flow sensor sends data information to the controller of the flow sensor circuit board through the XGZP signal pin. The controller compiles the data and sends it to the motherboard under test through the CAN communication interface (CAN1 interface). The microcontroller of the motherboard under test sends the correct information to the display through the Ethernet network interface, thereby realizing the test of the CAN1 interface of the motherboard under test.

[0041] The 485 differential signal provided by the encoder is converted into a serial port signal by the conversion chip on the motherboard under test (in this embodiment, it is MAX485ESA, an RS-485 transceiver chip) and connected to the microcontroller on the motherboard under test. The microcontroller on the motherboard under test sends the connection status of the 485 interface to the display through the Ethernet network interface, thereby realizing the detection of the 485 interface of the motherboard under test.

[0042] The signal provided by the servo driver is sent to the microcontroller of the motherboard under test through the CAN2 interface. The microcontroller on the motherboard under test sends the connection status of the CAN2 interface to the display, thereby realizing the detection of the CAN2 port.

[0043] In addition to testing the CAN1 interface, CAN2 interface, network interface, and 485 interface of the motherboard under test, the device of this utility model can also test the emergency stop button, left turn button, and right turn button of the motherboard under test.

[0044] Specifically, the emergency stop button circuit of the motherboard under test is as follows: Figure 6As shown. When the emergency stop button is in the normally closed state, the E_STOP signal is low upon power-up. When the emergency stop button is pressed, it is released, and the E_STOP signal becomes high. At this time, the system is in a disabled state, the buzzer sounds, indicating an alarm, and the signal is simultaneously uploaded to the test device's display so that the display shows the working status of the emergency stop button.

[0045] Furthermore, the left-turn button circuit of the motherboard under test is as follows: Figure 7 As shown. When the left turn button is normally open, the controller (microcontroller) of the motherboard under test acquires a high-level signal. When the left turn button is pressed, the controller acquires a low-level signal and uploads it to the display of the test device (showing the working status of the left turn button). The three left turn buttons on the motherboard are in parallel; pressing any button will cause the controller of the motherboard under test to acquire a low-level signal and upload it to the display of the test device. The detection principle of the right turn button is the same as that of the left turn button (the circuit diagram of the right turn button is shown below). Figure 8 As shown in the image, this will not be elaborated upon further here.

[0046] Example 2

[0047] Figure 10 This is a schematic block diagram illustrating the structure of a test device for detecting the status of a motherboard interface according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention.

[0048] In this embodiment, the present invention provides a testing device for detecting the status of motherboard interfaces. For example... Figure 10 As shown. It should be noted that the difference between Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2 is that the testing device in Embodiment 1 has a built-in display, while the testing device in Embodiment 2 is connected to the display. Other contents are largely the same.

[0049] Specifically, the testing device includes a second switching power supply, a servo driver, an adapter circuit board, and a flow sensor circuit board. The second switching power supply (220V to 12V) powers the motherboard under test, the display (with an RJ45 network interface, i.e., the network port in the diagram), the servo driver, the adapter circuit board, and the flow sensor circuit board. The servo driver (with a CAN communication interface) is used to test the CAN2 interface of the motherboard under test (i.e., the ADL motherboard under test in the diagram). The adapter circuit board (RJ45 interface to 4PIN interface) connects to the flow sensor circuit board and is used to test the CAN1 interface of the motherboard under test. The encoder is used to achieve RS-485 communication with the motherboard under test and to detect the RS-485 interface of the motherboard under test.

[0050] The monitor communicates with the motherboard under test (MDT) via an RJ45 interface (network interface), the encoder communicates with the MDT via an RS-485 interface, the servo driver communicates with the MDT via a CAN2 interface, and the adapter circuit board communicates with the MDT via a CAN1 interface. After the testing device is connected to the MDT and powered on, the tester can use the monitor's one-button self-test function to visually display the test status of each interface of the MDT on the monitor.

[0051] It should be noted that the 12V to 5V converter chip on the motherboard under test powers the encoder. Furthermore, the 485 differential signal provided by the encoder is converted into a serial signal by the converter chip on the motherboard under test and connected to the microcontroller (i.e., controller) on the motherboard. The connection status is then displayed on a monitor via the Ethernet network interface (i.e., RJ45 interface) on the motherboard under test.

[0052] The testing device of this invention enables rapid, accurate, and convenient testing of various interfaces on the motherboard under test, avoiding manual misdetection and missed detection, and improving testing efficiency.

[0053] While this specification has shown and described various embodiments of the present invention, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that such embodiments are provided by way of example only. Many modifications, alterations, and alternatives will occur to those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and essence of the present invention. It should be understood that various alternatives to the embodiments of the present invention described herein may be employed in the practice of the present invention.
