[0035] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0036] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, this utility model discloses an ultra-small, high-current driving power supply. The driving power supply includes an input circuit, an output circuit, a control circuit, and a protection circuit. The input circuit is configured to receive a DC input voltage from 4V to 32V. The output circuit is configured to continuously output a continuous current of 8A. The control circuit includes a built-in control chip and a power switching transistor for regulating the output voltage and quickly responding to external digital modulation signals. The protection circuit includes an input overvoltage protection circuit, an overheat protection circuit, and a negative voltage enable control circuit. The driving power supply is small in size and light in weight, and can achieve rapid rise and fall of the output voltage.

[0037] like Figure 3 As shown, the ultra-small volume high-current drive power supply has a volume of 10mm×10mm×10mm, adopts a through-hole mounting method, has 6 pins, and the input and output share a common ground, namely: 1: +VIN, positive input terminal; 2: GND, ground; 3: INH, enable control terminal; 4: CTRL, modulation signal; 5: GND, ground; 6: +VO, negative output terminal.

[0038] The ultra-small volume high current drive power supply has an enable control voltage of -5V for the negative voltage enable control circuit.

[0039] The ultra-small volume high current drive power supply has input overvoltage protection circuit and overheat protection circuit that are both non-automatic recovery type, and the temperature of the overheat protection point is +150℃.

[0040] The ultra-small volume high current drive power supply has a built-in bleed circuit, including a 0.5Ω resistor and a bleed switch, which is used to quickly reduce the output voltage when the power switch is turned off.

[0041] The ultra-small volume high current drive power supply has a control circuit including a modulation signal terminal CTRL. When the voltage at the CTRL terminal is higher than 2V, the drive power supply outputs a high-level voltage; when the voltage at the CTRL terminal is lower than 0.8V, the drive power supply outputs a low-level voltage.

[0042] The ultra-small volume high current drive power supply has a control circuit including an enable control terminal EN, which is connected through a current limiting resistor Ren. When the current flowing out of the EN terminal exceeds 6uA, the drive power supply starts working, and the maximum outflow current does not exceed 33uA.

[0043] The ultra-small, high-current drive power supply has an integrated control chip, the XC6109, used for input voltage sampling, overvoltage protection detection, and output control. The power switch is an N-channel MOSFET with an on-resistance of 18mΩ. The input circuit includes an input filter capacitor Cin with a capacitance greater than 1uF, a withstand voltage of 100V, and a 1210 package. The output circuit includes an output filter capacitor Cout with a capacitance of 470pF, a withstand voltage of 100V, and a 0603 package.

[0044] The ultra-small volume high current drive power supply mentioned above has an input overvoltage protection circuit that monitors the input voltage through a resistor voltage divider network. The resistor voltage divider network includes resistors R1 and R2. When the monitored voltage exceeds 1.2V, overvoltage protection is triggered. The resistance of resistor R1 is 100kΩ, the resistance of resistor R2 is 3.6kΩ, and the overvoltage protection point is set to 34.5V.

[0045] The working process of this ultra-small volume high-current drive power supply is as follows: The DC input is first filtered by the input filter capacitor Cin and then reaches the input terminal of the built-in chip XC6109. At the same time, the input sampling resistors R1 and R2 divide the voltage and transmit the collected input voltage signal to the OVP terminal of the built-in chip XC6109. The voltage detected by this pin is 1.2V. When the signal voltage is lower than 1.2V, the module output is normal. When it is higher than 1.2V, the module stops outputting. After the OVP pin detects no abnormality in the input voltage, the internal integrated circuit of the built-in chip XC6109 starts to work. At this time, the VOUT pin of XC6109 starts to output voltage. After being filtered by the output filter capacitor Cout, a reliable voltage is output, which can provide a continuous drive current of 8A.

[0046] The following is an explanation of the module's built-in parameters and the usage of each pin:

[0047] 1) Selection of input capacitor

[0048] To reduce interference from the circuit to the XC6109 chip, X7R or higher quality ceramic capacitors should be placed between VIN and GND, and the loop area formed by the capacitors and VIN / GND should be minimized. The total capacitance should ideally be greater than 1uF. The maximum input voltage is 32V. According to GJB / Z 35-93 "Component Derating Guidelines", voltage derating should ideally be selected as Class I derating to improve reliability, allow application in more demanding environments, and provide more stable performance. Since the capacitance of this ceramic capacitor changes with the DC voltage it withstands, the capacitance in the actual circuit must take into account the influence of DC bias characteristics. Therefore, the capacitor Cin (location see...) Figure 2 The circuit diagram of this utility model uses a 1210 package with a voltage rating of 100V and a capacitance of 10uF.

[0049] 2) Output capacitor selection

[0050] Since the XC6109 main control chip inside the power supply does not provide a soft-start function, it is not recommended to add a capacitor exceeding 220nF to the output VOUT. Otherwise, a large peak current will be generated at the moment of startup, which may damage the chip. According to the requirements of GJB / Z 35-93 "Component Derating Guidelines", voltage derating should preferably be selected as Class I derating. Therefore, one capacitor Cout should be selected with a 0603 package and a voltage rating of 100V and a capacitance of 470pF.

[0051] 3) Fast discharge circuit

[0052] The XC6109 main control chip inside the power supply has a built-in 0.5Ω resistor and a bleeder switch between VOUT and GND. When the main power transistor inside the chip is turned off, the output voltage will be quickly bleed through this circuit in order to reduce the output voltage quickly.

[0053] 4) Input overvoltage protection

[0054] The XC6109 internal main control chip of the driver power supply has a function pin OVP. This pin monitors the voltage divider between resistors R1 and R2 (location see...). Figure 2 When the voltage at the OVP pin exceeds 1.2V, the chip will shut down the output and lock up until VIN or EN is reset.

[0055] The calculation methods for resistors R1 and R2 are shown in Formula 1. The maximum input voltage of this drive power supply is 32V. The overvoltage protection point is set at about 34.5V. First, the resistor R1 is set to 100kΩ. The resistor R2 is calculated to be about 3.604 kΩ using Formula (1). Based on the calculated value of resistor R2, the closest resistor value is selected. Therefore, the value of resistor R2 is selected to be 3.6 kΩ.

[0056]

[0057] 5) Operating logic of the modulation signal terminal

[0058] The power supply can quickly respond to external digital modulation signals and can also output continuously. Therefore, the power supply has a CTRL pin. External modulation signals can control the output terminal VOUT to output pulse voltage through this pin, or it can continuously output a stable voltage. Through external modulation signals, the power supply can quickly achieve rapid rise and fall of the output voltage according to an external clock signal, or it can continuously output a stable voltage, with a maximum continuous output current of up to 8A. When the CTRL pin voltage is higher than 2V, a "high" modulation voltage can be achieved, allowing the power supply to output a stable high voltage; when the CTRL pin voltage is lower than 0.8V, a "low" modulation voltage can be achieved, allowing the power supply to output a stable low voltage. The modulation voltage parameters of the power supply's CTRL pin are shown in Table 1.

[0059]

[0060] 6) Enable the working logic of the control terminal

[0061] To prevent noise interference, the XC6109 inside the driver power supply controls chip enable by monitoring the current flowing out of the EN pin. The chip starts operating when the current flowing out of the EN pin exceeds 6uA. The chip manufacturer recommends that the maximum current flowing out of the EN pin should not exceed 33uA. To limit the maximum current, a current-limiting resistor Ren must be added to the EN pin (location see...). Figure 2 ).

[0062] This utility model is not limited to the above-described preferred embodiments. Any other products that are the same as or similar to this utility model and derived by anyone under the guidance of this utility model shall fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
