[0002] Currently, existing power supply testing generally performs routine tests on the power supply under test, such as power-on / off delay time, short-circuit protection, overcurrent protection, and overvoltage protection.

[0025] Currently, existing power supply testing generally performs routine tests on the power supply under test, such as power-on / off delay time, short-circuit protection, overcurrent protection, and overvoltage protection. When the device containing the power supply under test (such as gene sequencing equipment) has a large number of resistive and capacitive loads, the power supply under test needs to withstand a large inrush current. Therefore, it is necessary to perform inrush current-related reliability verification on the power supply under test.

[0026] However, current technologies lack reliability verification related to inrush current for the power supply under test. Especially in gene sequencing equipment, which involves multidisciplinary components (such as moving parts, optical parts, fluid components, etc.), there are very large current surges during operation. Long-term use in such environments has a significant impact on power supply performance and lifespan. Existing power supply testing cannot simulate the working scenario of gene sequencing in real time.

[0027] This application provides a power supply testing system for gene sequencing equipment, used to perform reliability verification of the power supply under test related to inrush current.

[0028] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic block diagram of a power detection system for a gene sequencing device provided in an embodiment of this application. The power detection system 100 includes a connection module 110, a resistor-capacitor module 120, a load module 130, and a programming control module 140.

[0029] In this embodiment, the connection module 110 is connected to the power supply under test 101, the resistor-capacitor module 120 is connected to the connection module 110, the load module 130 is connected to the resistor-capacitor module 120, and the programming control module 140 is connected to the connection module 110, the resistor-capacitor module 120, and the load module 130.

[0030] The connection module 110 is used to collect real-time status data of the power supply 101 under test and transmit the supply voltage of the power supply 101 to the resistor-capacitor module 120 and the load module 130. The resistor-capacitor module 120 is used to receive resistor-capacitor configuration parameters and provide target resistance and target capacitance values ​​according to the resistor-capacitor configuration parameters. The load module 130 is used to receive load configuration parameters and provide target load according to the load configuration parameters. The programming control module 140 is used to output resistor-capacitor configuration parameters and load configuration parameters, and to acquire and store real-time status data. The real-time status data of the power supply includes data such as output voltage, output current, and internal temperature. In some embodiments, it also includes relevant real-time data of the gene sequencing equipment power supply detection system (such as load operating temperature data and smoke detection module status data).

[0031] It is understood that the gene sequencing equipment power supply detection system 100 of this application includes a resistor-capacitor module 120 and a load module 130, which are connected to the power supply under test 101 via a connection module 110. The system uses a programming control module 140 to send resistor-capacitor configuration parameters to adjust the target resistance and capacitance values ​​of the resistor-capacitor module 120, thereby controlling the current surge of the power supply under test 101 and verifying the reliability of the surge current. Furthermore, the programming control module 140 sends load configuration parameters to adjust the target load of the load module 130, thereby adjusting the load power of the power supply under test 101 and simulating the gene sequencing working scenario in real time, further verifying the reliability of the surge current of the power supply under test 101 under the simulated gene sequencing working scenario.

[0032] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the connection module 110 includes a power connector 111 and an I2C bus 112, which are detachably connected. The power connector 111 is used for communication and electrical connection with the power supply under test 101. The I2C bus 112 is used to connect the resistor-capacitor module 120 and the programming control module 140. It can be understood that by replacing different types of power connectors 111, the gene sequencing equipment power detection system 100 can be adapted to various types of power supplies under test 101, thereby improving the applicability of the power detection module.

[0033] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the resistor-capacitor module 120 includes an adjustable resistor unit 121, an adjustable capacitor unit 122, and a first control unit 123.

[0034] In this embodiment, the first end of the adjustable resistor unit 121 is connected to the connection module 110, and the second end of the adjustable resistor unit 121 is connected to the load module 130. The first end of the adjustable capacitor unit 122 is connected to the connection module 110, and the second end of the adjustable capacitor unit 122 is connected to the load module 130. The control terminals of the adjustable resistor unit 121 and the adjustable capacitor unit 122 are connected to the first control unit 123. The first control unit 123 is connected to the programming control module 140.

[0035] The first control unit 123 receives resistor-capacitor configuration parameters and controls the adjustable resistor unit 121 to provide a target resistance value and the adjustable capacitor unit 122 to provide a target capacitance value based on these parameters. The adjustable resistor unit 121 includes a power resistor matrix, and the adjustable capacitor unit 122 includes an adjustable large capacitor matrix. By combining the target resistance and target capacitance values, the power supply under test 101 can pass various types of current surge detection and reliability verification.

[0036] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the load module 130 includes n load resistors 131, switching relays 132 and a second control unit 133, where n is a positive integer greater than or equal to 2 (in the example n=2 in the figure).

[0037] In this embodiment, the resistance value of each load resistor 131 is different, and each load resistor 131 is connected to the resistor-capacitor module 120 through a switching relay 132; the second control unit 133 is connected to the control terminal of the switching relay 132.

[0038] The second control unit 133 receives load configuration parameters and controls the connection between the target load resistor 131 and the RC module 120 according to the load configuration parameters to provide the target load. It can be understood that by switching the relay 132 to one of the load resistors 131, the resistance value of the load module 130 can be controlled, thereby adjusting the load power of the power supply 101 under test.

[0039] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, the programming control module 140 includes an industrial computer 141 and a display 142. The display 142 is connected to the industrial computer 141, and the industrial computer 141 is connected to the connection module 110, the resistor-capacitor module 120 and the load module 130.

[0040] In this embodiment, the industrial control computer 141 is used to generate and output resistor-capacitor configuration parameters and load configuration parameters according to instructions, and to store real-time status data. The display 142 is used to display the resistor-capacitor configuration parameters and load configuration parameters. The display 142 is also used to display real-time power supply status data, relevant real-time data from the gene sequencing equipment power supply detection system, and the control interface for issuing test instructions.

[0041] In some embodiments, the industrial control computer 141 can be replaced by a computer, and the programming control module 140 can also include a keyboard and a mouse, so that the user can manually set the resistance and capacitance configuration parameters and load configuration parameters through the keyboard and mouse.

[0042] Please refer to Figure 6 , Figure 6 This is a schematic block diagram of a second gene sequencing device power detection system 100 provided in an embodiment of this application. Wherein, Figure 6 Gene sequencing equipment power detection system 100 and Figure 1 Compared to the gene sequencing equipment power detection system 100, the difference is that it also includes a temperature detection module 150 and a smoke detection module 160.

[0043] In this embodiment, the temperature detection module 150 is connected to the programming control module 140. The temperature detection module 150 is used to collect the power supply temperature of the power supply 101 under test and the load temperature of the load module 130. The programming control module 140 is also used to control the start-up or shutdown of the power supply 101 under test based on the power supply temperature and the load temperature.

[0044] In this embodiment, the smoke detection module 160 is connected to the programming control module 140. The smoke detection module 160 is used to transmit alarm information to the programming control module 140 when it detects smoke generated by the load module 130. The programming control module 140 is also used to control the power supply 101 under test to shut down when it receives the alarm information. The smoke detection module 160 can be located at the heat dissipation vent of the load module 130.

[0045] It is understandable that when conducting a long-term aging test of the power supply under test 101 with surge current, the temperature detection module 150 and the smoke detection module 160 mentioned above can ensure the safety of the entire system during the aging test and avoid safety problems caused by overheating or load ignition during the aging process.

[0046] In some embodiments, such as Figure 7 As shown, the temperature detection module 150 includes a first temperature probe 151, a second temperature probe 152, and a communication unit 153. The communication unit 153 connects the first temperature probe 151 and the second temperature probe 152. The first temperature probe 151 is located at the power supply 101 under test, and the second temperature probe 152 is located at the load module 130. The first temperature probe 151 is used to collect the power supply temperature. The second temperature probe 152 is used to collect the load temperature. The communication unit 153 is used to transmit the power supply temperature and the load temperature to the programming control module 140.

[0047] The accuracy of the first temperature probe 151 and the second temperature probe 152 can be ±0.1°C. The first temperature probe 151 can be set at the air inlet of the power supply 101 under test, and the second temperature probe 152 can be set at the heat dissipation air outlet of the load module 130.
