Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of relay communication technology, and specifically relates to a photoelectric conversion interface circuit and a relay communication device for power equipment relay communication. Background Technology

[0002] With the construction of my country's power system, the distribution network has gradually realized distribution automation. A large number of remote distribution terminals have been installed on the lines and connected to the distribution automation master stations of local municipal bureaus. They can realize three-remote or even four-remote functions, which greatly improves the level of intelligent operation and provides a guarantee for the safe and reliable operation of the power grid. As the construction of the power grid continues to advance, urban areas have completed the construction and transformation of distribution networks and are now gradually moving towards rural areas.

[0003] In power system protection and control devices, wireless communication modules (2G / 3G / 4G / 5G mobile communication) are mostly used to achieve long-distance data transmission. The wireless communication module communicates with the distribution terminal equipment via serial ports. Because serial communication between the distribution terminal and the communication module is limited to a distance of approximately 10 meters, long-distance data transmission is not possible. Therefore, the wireless communication module can only be installed inside the distribution terminal or near the device. In such cases, even if there is no signal or a poor signal at the construction site, it is impossible to extend the serial cable to a region with good signal coverage. This is especially true in remote mountainous areas, tunnels, caves, basements, and signal-shielded locations, particularly in areas with wind power and other new energy development. Therefore, relay communication devices are needed to extend the wireless communication module to a region with good signal coverage.

[0004] Long-distance, interference-resistant, and attenuation-resistant relay communication typically uses fiber optic relay. While photoelectric conversion modules and chips are technologically mature and widely available, the signal level logic between the processor and the photoelectric conversion chip is generally reversed (i.e., when the processor outputs a high level, a low-level signal must be input to the photoelectric conversion chip to output light). The usual approach is to invert the data bits internally using a function before sending the signal. This not only consumes additional computing resources but also limits the processor's driving power, making it difficult to drive the photoelectric conversion chip effectively.

[0005] Therefore, there is a need for an optoelectronic conversion interface circuit and a relay communication device for power equipment relay communication. Utility Model Content

[0033] Example 1

[0034] like Figure 1 The diagram shows a schematic of a photoelectric conversion interface circuit for power equipment relay communication, including an inverting input circuit, a photoelectric conversion module U3, an inverting output circuit, and a voltage regulator circuit. The photoelectric conversion module U3 includes an electro-optical conversion circuit and a photoelectric conversion circuit. The electro-optical conversion circuit is connected to the inverting input circuit to convert the electrical signal input to the inverting input circuit into an optical signal and transmit it through an optical fiber. The photoelectric conversion circuit is connected to the inverting output circuit to convert the received optical signal into an electrical signal and transmit it through the inverting output circuit. The voltage regulator circuit is connected to the photoelectric conversion module U3 to provide a stable operating power supply V1 to the photoelectric conversion module U3. The inverting input circuit is connected to the operating power supply V1, and the inverting output circuit is connected to the operating power supply V2. By designing signal inversion hardware circuits to invert / buffer the signal between the processor and the photoelectric conversion module U3, the computational resources occupied by the processor can be reduced. Furthermore, each signal inversion hardware circuit has an independent power supply, which enhances the signal driving capability.

[0035] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, the electro-optical conversion circuit has a ground terminal GNDT, an input terminal TXP, and a power supply terminal VCCT; the photoelectric conversion circuit has a ground terminal GNDR, an output terminal RXP, and a power supply terminal VCCR; the ground terminal GNDT of the electro-optical conversion circuit is grounded, the input terminal TXP is connected to the inverting input circuit, and the power supply terminal VCCT is connected to the voltage regulator circuit; the ground terminal GNDR of the photoelectric conversion circuit is grounded, the output terminal RXP is connected to the inverting output circuit, and the power supply terminal VCCR is connected to the voltage regulator circuit. Furthermore, the photoelectric conversion module U3 can directly use commercially available chips to achieve electrical signal to optical signal conversion.

[0036] Transmitter (TXP): Receives the electrical signal converted by UART, then converts it into an optical signal, and transmits it through optical fiber.

[0037] Receiver (RXP): Receives optical signals transmitted through optical fiber, converts them into electrical signals, and sends them back to UART.

[0038] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, the inverting input circuit includes a logic inverter U4, resistors R13 and R12, and capacitor C8. The logic inverter U4 has an input terminal A, an output terminal Y, a power supply terminal VCC, and a ground terminal GND. The first end of resistor R13 is connected to the input terminal A of the logic inverter U4, serving as the electrical signal input terminal of the inverting input circuit. The second end of resistor R13 is connected to the output terminal Y of the logic inverter U4, and then connected to the first end of resistor R12. The first end of resistor R12 serves as the electrical signal output terminal of the inverting input circuit and is connected to the input terminal TXP of the electro-optical conversion circuit. The power supply terminal VCC of the logic inverter U4 is connected to the operating power supply V1. The power supply terminal VCC of the logic inverter U4 is connected to ground in series with capacitor C8. The second end of resistor R12 is connected to the operating power supply V1. The ground terminal GND of the logic inverter U4 is grounded. The specific working process is as follows:

[0039] UART5_TX (TTL level of microcontroller / serial device) → enters the A terminal of U4 → internal logic conversion (such as inversion / buffering) → output from the Y terminal → sent to the TXP terminal of the electro-optical conversion circuit → the electro-optical conversion circuit converts the electrical signal into an optical signal and transmits it through optical fiber.

[0040] Furthermore, the inverting output circuit includes a logic inverter U2, resistors R10 and R11, and capacitor C4. The logic inverter U2 has an input terminal A, an output terminal Y, a power supply terminal VCC, and a ground terminal GND. The output terminal Y of the logic inverter U2 is connected to the first end of resistor R10, serving as the electrical signal output terminal of the inverting output circuit. The input terminal A of the logic inverter U2 is connected to the second end of resistor R10, and then to the first end of resistor R11. The second end of resistor R11 is connected to the operating power supply V2. The first end of resistor R11 serves as the electrical signal input terminal of the inverting output circuit and is connected to the output terminal RXP of the photoelectric conversion circuit. The power supply terminal VCC of the logic inverter U2 is connected to the operating power supply V2. The power supply terminal VCC of the logic inverter U2 is connected to ground after being connected in series with capacitor C4. The ground terminal GND of the logic inverter U2 is grounded. The specific workflow is as follows:

[0041] Optical signal transmitted from optical fiber → received by photoelectric conversion circuit → converted into electrical signal → output through RXP terminal → enters U2's A terminal → internal logic conversion (such as inversion / buffering) → output through Y terminal → UART5_RX is sent back to microcontroller / serial port device.

[0042] U2 and U4 are single-channel logic conversion chips that reverse / buffer the TTL level signals of UART5_RX (receive) and UART5_TX (transmit) to match the level requirements of the photoelectric conversion module U3 (both are high level or both are low level). At the same time, each circuit uses an independent power supply to enhance the signal driving capability.

[0043] Furthermore, resistors R10 and R13 act as current limiters, restricting the current flowing through logic inverters U2 and U4 to prevent damage to the chips due to excessive current. They also adjust the signal driving capability, making the signal more stable during transmission.

[0044] Resistors R11 and R12 are pull-up resistors, which, together with the logic inverter, pull the logic-converted signal to a suitable level (such as the V2 and V1 voltage domains) to match the signal level with the input requirements of the photoelectric conversion module U3, ensuring correct signal recognition.

[0045] Furthermore, the voltages of the operating power supply V1 and the operating power supply V2 are the same to prevent voltage differences that could lead to signal level mismatch, additional current flow in the circuit, and noise interference. This is especially problematic during high-frequency signal transmission, as it could interfere with the UART signal, affecting signal purity and transmission quality.

[0046] Furthermore, the voltage regulator circuit includes capacitors C5 and C7, inductors L2 and L3, capacitor C6, and capacitor C9; the first terminal of capacitor C5 is connected to the operating power supply V1 and the first terminal of inductor L2 respectively; the first terminal of capacitor C7 is connected to the first terminal of inductor L3 and then to the first terminal of inductor L2; the second terminal of capacitor C5 is connected to the second terminal of capacitor C7 and then grounded; the second terminal of inductor L2 is connected to the first terminal of capacitor C6 and then connected to the power supply terminal VCCR of the photoelectric conversion circuit; the second terminal of inductor L3 is connected to the first terminal of capacitor C9 and then connected to the power supply terminal VCCT of the electro-optical conversion circuit; the second terminal of capacitor C6 is grounded; the second terminal of capacitor C9 is grounded.

[0047] Furthermore, L2 and L3 are common-mode inductors, which suppress common-mode interference from the power supply, prevent external common-mode noise from entering the circuit, and also prevent internal noise from being conducted outward, thereby improving the anti-interference capability of the photoelectric conversion module U3 and ensuring the signal conversion quality of the photoelectric conversion module U3.

[0048] Furthermore, capacitors C4, C6, C7, C8, and C9 primarily serve as high-frequency filters, removing high-frequency noise from power supply or signal lines to make the signal cleaner.

[0049] Furthermore, capacitor C5 is a ceramic capacitor, which is a polarized capacitor (marked with "+"), used to filter out low-frequency ripple in the working power supply V1 and stabilize the power supply voltage.

[0050] Example 2

[0051] like Figure 3 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the inverting input circuit includes a resistor R26, a MOSFET M2, a resistor R28, and a capacitor C30; the first end of the resistor R26 serves as the electrical signal input terminal of the inverting input circuit, and the second end is connected to the gate of the MOSFET M2; the source of the MOSFET M2 is connected to the first end of the resistor R28; the source of the MOSFET M2 serves as the electrical signal output terminal of the inverting input circuit and is connected to the input terminal TXP of the electro-optical conversion circuit; the drain of the MOSFET M2 is grounded; the second end of the resistor R28 is connected to the operating power supply V1; and the second end of the resistor R28 is connected to the ground after being connected in series with the capacitor C30.

[0052] Furthermore, the inverting output circuit includes a resistor R25, a MOSFET M1, a resistor R27, and a capacitor C31; the first end of the resistor R25 serves as the electrical signal input terminal of the inverting output circuit and is connected to the output terminal RXP of the photoelectric conversion circuit, and the second end is connected to the gate of the MOSFET M1; the source of the MOSFET M1 is connected to the first end of the resistor R27; the source of the MOSFET M1 serves as the electrical signal output terminal of the inverting output circuit; the drain of the MOSFET M1 is grounded; the second end of the resistor R27 is connected to the operating power supply V2; and the second end of the resistor R27 is connected to the ground after being connected in series with the capacitor C31.

[0053] Signal Drive: The transmit signal output from UART5_TX is current-limited by R26, controlling the on and off states of MOSFET M2. M2 operates in switching mode, converting the V1 power supply to a level change corresponding to the UART signal. At this time, the operating power supply V1 of the inverting input circuit is consistent with that of the photoelectric conversion module U3.

[0054] Signal Conversion and Transmission: The photoelectric conversion module U3 receives the optical signal, converts it into an electrical signal, and outputs it from the RXP pin. Components such as resistor R25 then send the signal to a circuit composed of MOSFET M1. MOSFET M1 acts as a switch, adapting the signal level to the UART reception requirements, and then sends it to the subsequent processing unit via UART5_RX. At this time, the operating power supply V2 of the inverting output circuit is consistent with the operating voltage of the external processor.

[0055] In this embodiment, through clever design, not only is the signal inversion function realized and the signal driving capability enhanced, but also the compatibility of multiple levels of the working power supply V1 and V2 is realized by using MOS transistors and supporting components (that is, the voltages of V1 and V2 can be the same or different, and both can be driven in a compatible manner). For example, the processor uses the same 3.3V voltage as V2, and the working power supply V2 of the photoelectric conversion module U3 uses a 5V voltage, which can achieve compatibility between the two while ensuring the quality of signal transmission.

Each relay module includes a level conversion circuit, a data processing circuit, a display module, a power conversion circuit, and the aforementioned photoelectric conversion interface circuit. The first terminal of the level conversion circuit is connected to the serial port of the device to be relayed (e.g., the level conversion circuit of Relay Module A is connected to a power distribution terminal, and the level conversion circuit of Relay Module B is connected to a wireless communication module), and the second terminal is connected to the data processing circuit. The data processing circuit is connected to the display module, the power conversion circuit, and the photoelectric conversion interface circuit, respectively.
