[0019] In order to clarify the objectives, solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application, the solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, but not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without any creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] Referring to Figure 1, Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a sine wave generating circuit configuration in an embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 1, the sine wave generating circuit (100) includes a first signal converting module (10), a class D amplifier (U1), a second signal converting module (20), and a voltage control module (30).

[0021] Here, the class D amplifier (U1) is connected to the first signal conversion module 10. The second signal conversion module (10) is connected to the class D amplifier (U1). The voltage control module (30) is connected between the second signal conversion module (20) and the first signal conversion module (10).

[0022] Specifically, the first signal conversion module (10) receives a square wave signal (VCLK), which in some embodiments is a clock signal. The first signal conversion module (10) converts the square wave signal (VCLK) into a first sine wave signal with adjustable amplitude. The class D amplifier (U1) receives the first sine wave signal. The class D amplifier (U1) amplifies and modulates the power of the first sine wave signal, and then outputs a high-frequency carrier pulse-width modulated signal with a variable duty cycle. The second signal conversion module (20) receives the high-frequency carrier pulse-width modulated signal. The second signal conversion module (20) demodulates and boosts the high-frequency carrier pulse-width modulated signal to output a second sine wave signal (VSIN2). The voltage control module (30) receives the second sine wave signal (VSIN2) and a control signal (VCO). The voltage control module (30) outputs an adjustment signal to the first signal conversion module (10) to adjust the amplitude of the first sine wave signal based on the control signal (VCO) and the second sine wave signal (VSIN2) until the voltages of the control signal (VCO) and the second sine wave signal (VSIN2) satisfy a preset relationship.

[0023] Here, the second sine wave signal (VSIN2) is used to supply power to an electrical load. For example, if the sine wave generating circuit is applied to an electronic device, the second sine wave signal (VSIN2) is used to supply power to an electrical load in the electronic device. If the electronic device is a printer, the second sine wave signal (VSIN2) can be used to supply power to an ink cartridge (i.e., an electrical load) in the printer.

[0024] The preset relationship is a predetermined correspondence relationship between the voltage of the control signal (VCO) and the voltage of the second sine wave signal (VSIN2), and can be specifically set based on an actual application scenario, and the embodiments of the present application do not impose any specific limitations thereon. For example, in some embodiments, the preset relationship can be set so that a proportional relationship is shown between the voltage of the control signal (VCO) and the voltage of the second sine wave signal (VSIN2), and in other embodiments, the proportional relationship can be set to 1:1, that is, the actual preset relationship is that the voltage of the control signal (VCO) and the voltage of the second sine wave signal (VSIN2) are equal.

[0025] In a practical application, when a user needs to adjust the voltage of the second sine wave signal (VSIN2), the control signal (VCO) is output according to the user's needs. If the voltages of the control signal (VCO) and the second sine wave signal (VSIN2) do not meet the preset relationship, the voltage control module (30) outputs a corresponding adjustment signal to the first signal conversion module (10) to adjust the amplitude of the first sine wave signal. The high-frequency carrier pulse width modulation signal and the second sine wave signal (VSIN2) are then sequentially adjusted until the voltages of the control signal (VCO) and the second sine wave signal (VSIN2) again meet the preset relationship. Therefore, the above process can automatically adjust the voltage of the second sine wave signal to meet the user's needs, i.e., output a corresponding sine wave signal according to the user's needs. At the same time, if a class D amplifier is used to generate the second sine wave signal, it can have high conversion efficiency, which can prevent devices from overheating or being damaged when the voltage changes, and is advantageous in maintaining stable operation of each device, thereby increasing the reliability of the sine wave generating circuit (10) as a whole.

[0026] In one embodiment, the first signal conversion module (10) includes a signal conversion unit (11) and a signal amplification unit (12), as shown in Figure 2. Here, the signal amplification unit (12) is connected to the signal conversion unit (11).

[0027] Specifically, a square wave signal is input to the signal conversion unit 11. The signal conversion unit 11 converts the square wave signal into a third sine wave signal. The signal amplification unit 12 receives the third sine wave signal. The signal amplification unit 12 outputs a first sine wave signal based on the third sine wave signal.

[0028] Here, the amplitude of the first sine wave signal is determined by the amplitude of the third sine wave signal and the gain of the signal amplification unit. Specifically, the amplitude of the first sine wave signal is the product of the amplitude of the third sine wave signal and the gain of the signal amplification unit (12). Meanwhile, the gain of the signal amplification unit (12) is determined by the magnitude of the voltage of the adjustment signal output by the voltage control module (30). Therefore, by changing the magnitude of the voltage of the adjustment signal, the gain of the signal amplification unit (12) can be changed. Furthermore, when the amplitude of the third sine wave signal does not change, the amplitude of the first sine wave signal can be changed. In other words, the amplitude of the first sine wave signal is adjustable and can be adjusted by the adjustment signal.

[0029] In this embodiment, the class D amplifier (U1) has a single-ended output. The second signal conversion module (20) includes a first filter unit (21) and a first boost unit (22). Here, the first filter unit (21) is connected between the class D amplifier (U1) and the first boost unit (22).

[0030] Specifically, the first filtering unit 21 filters the high-frequency carrier pulse-width modulated signal to demodulate it. The first boost unit 22 boosts the demodulated high-frequency carrier pulse-width modulated signal to output a second sine wave signal. That is, the Class D amplifier U1 outputs the high-frequency carrier pulse-width modulated signal, which is filtered by the first filtering unit 21 (where it is demodulated back to a sine wave) and boosted by the first boost unit 22, becoming the second sine wave signal VSIN2. As a result, the second sine wave signal VSIN2 obtained through the power amplification of the Class D amplifier U1 and the boosting of the first boost unit 22 can meet application scenarios requiring high-power and high-voltage power supplies. Here, in the present embodiment, the second sine wave signal VSIN2 refers to a high-voltage sine wave, typically a voltage of 1000V or more.

[0031] In one embodiment, the voltage control module 30 includes a signal processing unit 31, a voltage sampling unit 32, and a signal output unit 32. The signal processing unit 31 is connected to the signal output unit 32. The voltage sampling unit 31 is connected between the second signal conversion module 20 and the signal output unit 32. The signal output unit 32 is connected to the first signal conversion module 10.

[0032] Specifically, the signal processing unit 31 receives a control signal (VCO). The signal processing unit 31 outputs the control signal (VCO), converts its level, and outputs the converted signal to the signal output unit 32. The voltage sampling unit 32 samples a second sine wave signal and outputs a second voltage corresponding to the second sine wave signal to the signal output unit 32. The signal output unit 32 generates a first voltage corresponding to the level-converted control signal (VCO), and outputs an adjustment signal to the first signal conversion module 10 based on the first and second voltages. Here, the signal output unit 32 outputs the adjustment signal to the first signal conversion module 10 to adjust the amplitude of the first sine wave signal until the first and second voltages satisfy a preset relationship. In some embodiments, the preset relationship satisfied by the first and second voltages is that the first and second voltages are equal to each other. When a user needs to obtain a second voltage of a certain voltage value, it is convenient because it is sufficient to output only the control signal (VCO) corresponding to that voltage value. Here, the control signal (VCO) may be a signal that can be converted to an arbitrary voltage (for example, a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal).

[0033] Referring to FIG. 3, FIG. 3 illustrates a circuit configuration corresponding to the configuration shown in FIG.

[0034] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, the signal transformation unit (11) includes a square wave to sine wave module (U2).

[0035] Here, the square wave signal (VCLK) is input to the input terminal (INPUT) of the square wave conversion sine wave module (U2), and the third sine wave signal is output from the output terminal (OUT). The power supply terminal (VCC) of the square wave conversion sine wave module (U2) is connected to the input power supply (VIN) via a fuse (F1), and power is supplied from the input power supply (VIN). The square wave signal (VCLK) has the same frequency as the third sine wave signal. In some embodiments, the square wave conversion sine wave module (U2) can use a module model such as RT8H415C.

[0036] In one embodiment, the signal amplification unit (12) includes a sine wave amplification module (U3).

[0037] The input terminal (SIN) of the sine wave amplifier module (U3) receives the third sine wave signal, and the output terminal (OUT) outputs the first sine wave signal. The power supply terminal (VCC) of the sine wave amplifier module (U3) is connected to the input power supply (VIN) via a fuse (F1), and power is supplied from the input power supply (VIN).

[0038] In one embodiment, the input terminal (RIN) of the class D amplifier (U1) receives a third sine wave signal, and the output terminal (ROUT) outputs a high frequency carrier pulse width modulated signal. The power supply terminal (VCC) of the class D amplifier (U1) is connected to the input power supply (VIN) via a fuse (F1) and is supplied with power from the input power supply (VIN).

[0039] In one embodiment, the first filter unit (21) includes a first inductor (L1), a first capacitor (C1) and a second capacitor (C2), and the first boost unit (22) includes a first transformer (T1).

[0040] Here, a first end of the first inductance (L1) is connected to the class D amplifier (U1), a second end of the first inductance (L1) is connected to a first end of the first capacitor (C1) and a first end of the second capacitor (C2), respectively, a second end of the first capacitor (C1) is connected to a first end of the primary winding of the first transformer (T1), and a second end of the second capacitor (C2), a second end of the secondary winding of the first transformer (T1), and a second end of the second transformer (T1). Here, in the embodiment of the present application, the first ground (PG) is the ground of the circuit that transmits power, and the second ground (SG) is the ground of the circuit that transmits signals.

[0041] Specifically, the first inductor (L1), the first capacitor (C1) and the second capacitor (C2) are a low-pass filtering combination, which realizes demodulation of the high-frequency carrier pulse width modulated signal into a fourth sine wave signal.

[0042] In one embodiment, the control signal is a pulse width modulated signal. The signal processing unit (31) includes a first resistor (R1), a second resistor (R2), a third resistor (R3), a fourth resistor (R4), an inverter (NO1), and a fifth capacitor (C5).

[0043] Here, the first end of the first resistor (R1), the power supply end of the inverter (NO1), the first end of the fifth capacitor (C5) and the first end of the fourth resistor (R4) are all connected to the first power supply V1, the second end of the first resistor (R1) is connected to the first end of the second resistor (R2) and the pulse width modulation signal, respectively, the second end of the second resistor (R2) is connected to the input end of the inverter (NO1), the output end of the inverter (NO1) is connected to the first end of the third resistor (R3), the second end of the third resistor (R3) is connected to the second end of the fourth resistor (R4) and the signal output unit 32, respectively, and the fifth end of the fifth capacitor (C5) is connected to the second ground (SG).

[0044] Specifically, the first resistor R1 is a pull-up resistor, and the second resistor R2 is an input protection resistor. The inverter NO1 can process the pulse-width modulated signal with an inverse duty cycle. The third resistor R3 and the fourth resistor R4 are voltage-dividing resistors. The provision of the first resistor R1, the second resistor R2, the third resistor R3, the fourth resistor R4, and the inverter NO1 corresponds to a process of level-converting the pulse-width modulated signal, which can improve the interference resistance of the pulse-width modulated signal and prevent interference from affecting subsequent control processes, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the overall operation of the sine wave generating circuit 10.

[0045] In one embodiment, the voltage sampling unit (32) includes a fifth resistor (R5), a sixth resistor (R6), a seventh resistor (R7), a sixth capacitor (C6), a seventh capacitor (C7), an eighth capacitor (C8), a first diode (D1) and a second diode capacitor (D2).

[0046] Here, the first end of the sixth capacitor (C6) is connected to the second signal conversion module (20), the second end of the sixth capacitor (C6) is connected to the first end of the fifth resistor (R5), the first end of the seventh capacitor (C7) and the anode of the first diode (D1), respectively, the cathode of the first diode (D1) is connected to the first end of the sixth resistor (R6), the second end of the sixth resistor (R6) is connected to the first end of the seventh resistor (R7), the first end of the eighth capacitor (C8), the cathode of the second diode capacitor (D2) and the signal output unit 32, respectively, and the second end of the seventh capacitor (C7), the second end of the fifth resistor (R5), the second end of the eighth capacitor (C8), the second end of the seventh resistor (R7) and the cathode of the second diode capacitor (D2) are all connected to the second ground (SG).

[0047] Specifically, the sixth capacitor C6, the seventh capacitor C7, the eighth capacitor C8, and the fifth resistor R5 are used for filtering. The first diode D1 is used for rectification. The sixth resistor R6 and the seventh resistor R7 are used for voltage division. The second diode capacitor D2 is used to filter any negative voltage that may be generated. Through the filtering and rectification process, the second sine wave signal VSIN2 can be converted into a specific voltage value (i.e., the second voltage).

[0048] In one embodiment, the signal output unit (33) includes an eighth resistor (R8), a ninth resistor (R9), a tenth resistor (R10), an eleventh resistor (R11), a twelfth resistor (R12), a ninth capacitor (C9), a tenth capacitor (C10), and an operational amplifier (U4).

[0049] Here, the first end of the eighth resistor (R8) is connected to the voltage sampling unit (32), the second end of the eighth resistor (R8) is connected to the first end of the ninth capacitor (C9) and the inverting input end of the operational amplifier (U4), the second end of the ninth capacitor (C9) is connected to the first end of the ninth resistor (R9), the second end of the ninth resistor (R9) is connected to the first end of the tenth resistor (R10) and the output end of the operational amplifier (U4), and the second end of the tenth resistor (R10) is connected to the first end of the tenth resistor (R11). The first end of the resistor R1 and the first end of the tenth capacitor C10 are connected to the second ground (SG), the second end of the tenth capacitor C10 is connected to the first end of the resistor R1 and the common-phase input terminal of the operational amplifier U4, and the second end of the resistor R1 is connected to the signal processing unit 31.

[0050] Specifically, the twelfth resistor (R12) and the tenth capacitor (C10) perform an integration function to convert the level-shifted control signal (VCO) into a first voltage. The eighth resistor (R8) protects the operational amplifier (U4). The ninth resistor (R9) and the ninth capacitor (C9) perform a feedback function. The tenth resistor (R10) and the eleventh resistor (R11) divide the voltage to output the appropriate voltage to the feedback input (VCCON) of the sine wave amplifier module (U3).

[0051] In this embodiment, the first voltage is input to the in-phase input terminal of the operational amplifier U4, and the second voltage is input to the inverting input terminal of the operational amplifier U4. If the first voltage and the second voltage are not equal, the voltage output from the operational amplifier U4 is divided by the tenth resistor R10 and the eleventh resistor R1 (corresponding to the adjustment signal in the previous embodiment) and then input to the feedback input terminal (VCCON) of the sine wave amplifier module U3. This adjusts the gain of the sine wave amplifier module U3 to adjust the second sine wave signal (VSIN2), thereby adjusting the magnitude of the second voltage. The difference between the second voltage and the first voltage is gradually reduced. Until the first voltage and the second voltage are equal, the entire system is stable and the gain of the sine wave amplifier module U3 remains unchanged.

[0053] As shown in FIG. 4, the square wave signal (VCLK) is input to the square wave conversion sine wave module (U2) and converted into a first sine wave signal (VSIN1). The first sine wave signal (VSIN1) is input to the sine wave amplification module (U3), which outputs a third sine wave signal (VSIN3). In this embodiment, assuming that the gain of the sine wave amplification module (U3) is 1 when the entire sine wave generation circuit (10) is stable and operating, the third sine wave signal (VSIN3) is the same as the first sine wave signal (VSIN1). This is equivalent to inputting the first sine wave signal (VSIN1) into the Class D amplifier (U1). The Class D amplifier (U1) outputs a high-frequency carrier pulse-width modulated signal (VSPWM) after power amplification and modulation. The high-frequency carrier pulse width modulation signal (VSPWM) is input to the first filter unit (21), filtered, and converted into a fourth sine wave signal (VSIN4). Through power amplification, the driving capability of the fourth sine wave signal (VSIN4) is stronger than that of the third sine wave signal (VSIN3) and the first sine wave signal (VSIN1). Finally, the fourth sine wave signal (VSIN4) is input to the first transformer (T1) and boosted to obtain a second sine wave signal (VSIN2). The second sine wave signal (VSIN2) is a high-voltage sine wave with high driving capability.

[0061] Specifically, the third capacitor (C3) and the second inductor (L2) form a low-pass filtering combination, and the fourth capacitor (C4) and the third inductor (L3) also form a low-pass filtering combination, which can demodulate the high-frequency carrier pulse width modulated signal into a fourth sine wave signal.
