[0047] The processor uses the FM33LG048 minimum system. The power module includes a battery and a voltage regulator circuit. The battery is a 2.5V~4.5V rechargeable battery. The voltage regulator circuit is used to convert 2.5V~4.5V into power supplies of various voltage levels, such as 3.3V power supply, 1.8V power supply, etc.
[0048] The positioning module is electrically connected to the processor and is used to collect location information. In this embodiment, the positioning module uses the TAU1113 BeiDou positioning module. The circuit of the TAU1113 BeiDou positioning module is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, it includes: positioning chip U8, resistor R40, MOSFET Q8, capacitor C53, capacitor C54, antenna RF2, and inductor L2.
[0049] In this embodiment, MOSFET Q8 is a P-type MOSFET, responsible for controlling the power switch of the TAU1113 Beidou positioning module. The power supply of the TAU1113 Beidou positioning module is 3.3V. Capacitor C53 is an energy storage capacitor, which provides local energy replenishment for the instantaneous large current demand when the chip is powered on, reducing voltage drops caused by power path impedance.

[0054] The power input terminal of the encryption chip is electrically connected to the drain of the MOS transistor Q4, the gate of the MOS transistor Q4 is electrically connected to the first end of the resistor R17, and the second end of the resistor R17 is electrically connected to the control pin of the processor.

[0056] The ground pin of the encryption chip U4, the second terminal of capacitor C47, and the second terminal of capacitor C48 are all grounded.
[0057] In this embodiment, the encryption chip U4 uses the CF3310 hardware encryption chip. The MOSFET Q4 is a P-type MOSFET, which is responsible for controlling the power switch of the encryption module. The power supply of the encryption module is 3.3V. Resistors R15, R16, and R17 are all current-limiting resistors to prevent large currents from damaging the encryption chip. Capacitor C47 is an energy storage capacitor, which provides local energy replenishment for the instantaneous large current demand when the encryption chip is powered on, reducing voltage drops caused by power path impedance. Capacitor C48 is a filter capacitor, used to smooth power supply ripple and suppress low-frequency and high-frequency noise.
[0058] The communication module is electrically connected to the processor; in this embodiment, the communication module adopts the EC600K-CN series communication module.

[0062] The external storage module is electrically connected to the processor, and it uses an FM25Q128 chip; therefore, the circuit of the external storage module is as follows: Figure 4 As shown, the components include: memory chip U9, resistor R44, capacitor C14, capacitor C55, and MOSFET Q9; memory chip U9 is an FM25Q128 chip, and MOSFET Q9 is a P-type MOSFET responsible for controlling the power switch of the external storage module, which is powered by a 3.3V power supply; resistor R44 is a current-limiting resistor to prevent large currents from damaging memory chip U9; capacitor C14 is an energy storage capacitor, which provides local energy replenishment for the instantaneous large current demand when the chip is powered on, reducing voltage drops caused by power path impedance; capacitor C55 is a filter capacitor, used to smooth power supply ripple and suppress low-frequency and high-frequency noise.
[0063] In this embodiment, since the power module uses a non-rechargeable battery, by deploying MOSFETs Q4, Q8, and Q9 as switches to control the power supply, the static current of the overall circuit can be minimized. The smaller the static current, the better it is for improving the battery's lifespan.
[0064] Therefore, the monitoring circuits in the examples in this book are highly integrated, which can reduce the size of the entire monitoring device and meet the installation requirements in narrow spaces.
