Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This application claims priority to a Chinese patent application filed with the State Intellectual Property Office of the People's Republic of China on January 30, 2022, bearing application number 202220250819.3 and entitled "Battery Control Circuit, Charging Protection Device, Battery and Electronic Device," and a Chinese patent application filed with the State Intellectual Property Office of the People's Republic of China on May 10, 2022, bearing application number 202221113226.9 and entitled "Battery Control Circuit, Charging Protection Device, Battery and Electronic Device," the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.

[0002] The present application relates to the field of batteries, and in particular to battery control circuits, batteries and electronic devices. [Background technology]

[0003] With the rapid development of battery fast charging technology, the requirements for batteries are becoming higher and higher during high-power charging. During high-current charging, it is necessary to keep the temperature rise of the battery as low as possible, which poses a major challenge to the design of charging protection devices.

[0004] Conventional fast charging designs take advantage of the three-tab battery core to effectively shorten the high-current charging path in the charging protection device, thereby lowering impedance and reducing heat generation. Specifically, two flexible printed circuits (FPCs) are connected to the mobile phone system end of the charging protection device, with the positive poles of the two FPCs connected to the positive nickel plate of the charging protection device via the shortest path, and the negative poles of the two FPCs connected to a switch MOS and then to the negative nickel plate of the charging protection device, forming a charging and discharging circuit.

[0005] In batteries currently under development, the metal housing of the battery core has a negative polarity, and the electronics chamber (i.e., the area where the battery is installed) is connected to the ground of the electronics system. Since the ground of the system has a negative polarity, the electronics chamber itself also has a negative polarity. For safety reasons, the metal housing must be fully insulated, which means that the thickness of the battery core must be increased, thereby reducing the capacity of the battery core.

[0039] In one embodiment, the battery 1000 is a battery having a steel housing. The metal housing 11 is a steel housing. Therefore, the battery core 100 is a battery core of a battery having a steel housing, and the first charging protection device 200 is a charging protection device for a battery having a steel housing. As can be appreciated, in other embodiments, the metal housing 11 may be a housing made of other metal materials, and the first charging protection device 200 may be a charging protection device for other types of batteries.

[0041] In one embodiment, the first cover plate 12 may be connected to the first opening of the metal housing 11 by welding. As can be appreciated, in other embodiments, the first cover plate 12 may be provided in the first opening of the metal housing 11 in other ways.

[0042] In one embodiment, the position of the second conductive tab 400 is fixed, i.e., located at the first rivet 13, but the positions of the first conductive tab 300 and the third conductive tab 500 are adjustable, i.e., may be located at any position except the position of the first rivet 13 on the first cover plate 12, or may be located on the metal housing 11.

[0043] As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the first charging protection device 200 includes a circuit board 21 and a battery control circuit 22 provided on the circuit board 21.

In addition, the control unit 2233 controls the on / off of the first switch unit 2231 and the second switch unit 2232 according to actual conditions, thereby protecting the battery core 100.

[0046] In addition, due to the high-end drive of the battery 1000, the negative polarity of the metal housing 11 and the first cover plate 12 and the positive polarity of the first rivet 13 of the battery core 100 can be utilized to form a positive-polarity driven rapid charging circuit with one positive polarity and two negative polarities, which effectively solves the problem of short circuits with the electronic device body caused by the non-insulated design of the metal housing 11 of the battery core, and the non-insulated design can improve the battery capacity.

[0048] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the voltage difference between the voltage output from the control unit 2233 and the voltage of the positive electrode 2212 is 4V or more.

[0049] Therefore, the control unit 2233 can achieve high-end driving.

[0050] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the first charging protection device 200 can transmit current via a first conductive path 2002 and a second conductive path 2003. The first positive terminal 2221 and the first negative terminal 2222 form a first battery port 2225, and the second positive terminal 2223 and the second negative terminal 2224 form a second battery port 2226. As can be appreciated, the current flowing through the first battery port 2225 and the second battery port 2226 should be the same, thereby helping to balance the overall temperature rise of the first charging protection device 200.

[0051] Furthermore, in one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2 again, the circuit board 21 has an elongated shape and includes two first sides 211 arranged opposite each other and two second sides 212 arranged opposite each other.

The control unit 2233 controls the on / off of the first switch unit 2231 and the second switch unit 2232 according to the sampled current value of the current sampling unit 2234.

[0055] Further, in one embodiment, the current sampling unit 2234 includes a first current sampling resistor R1 and a second current sampling resistor R2, which are connected in parallel and then connected in series between the first positive terminal 2221 and the positive electrode 2212, and between the second positive terminal 2223 and the positive electrode 2212.

[0056] Therefore, the present application can determine the magnitude of the current passing through based on the voltage drop across the current sampling unit 2234, and then control the on / off of the first switch unit 2231 and the second switch unit 2232 based on the magnitude of the current.

[0057] As can be appreciated, the current sampling unit 2234 may be a parallel connection of multiple current sampling resistors, which can reduce heat generation.

[0058] Preferably, in one embodiment, the circuit protection module 223 includes a first protection circuit that protects the first conductive path 2002 and the second conductive path 2003 so that charging and discharging are normal. The first protection circuit is formed between the first negative electrode 2211, the positive electrode 2212, and the first battery port 2225, and between the second negative electrode 2213, the positive electrode 2212, and the second battery port 2226.

Specifically, the first controller U1 detects the magnitude of the charging and discharging current of the battery core 100, and when the charging and discharging current exceeds the protection threshold, the first controller U1 of the first protection circuit controls the first switch S2 and the second switch S3 to turn off, thereby cutting off the conductive path between the positive electrode 2212 and the first battery port 2225 and the conductive path between the positive electrode 2212 and the second battery port 2226, thereby protecting the battery core 100.

[0059] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the first controller U1 has a CO1 terminal and a DO1 terminal. The first switch S2 includes a charge switch K3 and a discharge switch K4. The second switch S3 includes a charge switch K1 and a discharge switch K2. The CO1 terminal and the DO1 terminal of the first controller U1 can output a voltage to the positive electrode 2212, and the voltage value may range from 4 to 5 V, 4 to 6 V, or other voltage value, i.e., the voltage at the CO1 terminal and the DO1 terminal of U1 may be 4 to 5 V, 4 to 6 V, or other voltage value higher than the voltage of the positive electrode 2212. The CO1 terminal of the first controller U1 may drive the charge switch K3 to turn on via the G3 terminal of the first switch S2 and the charge switch K1 to turn on via the G1 terminal of the second switch S3, and the DO1 terminal of the first controller U1 may drive the discharge switch K4 to turn on via the G4 terminal of the first switch S2 and the discharge switch K2 to turn on via the G2 terminal of the second switch S3, thereby forming a conductive path between the L3 and L4 terminals of the first switch S2 and between the L1 and L2 terminals of the second switch S3.

[0060] Preferably, in one embodiment, the first protection circuit further includes a first voltage sampling resistor RV1 and a second voltage sampling resistor RV2, and the first controller U1 samples a first voltage value between the first negative pole 2211 and the positive pole 2212 through the first voltage sampling resistor RV1 and samples a second voltage value between the positive pole 2212 and the second negative pole 2213 through the second voltage sampling resistor RV2 to obtain first voltage average values ​​of the first and second voltage values. The first controller U1 also samples a sampled current value from the current sampling unit 2234. The first controller U1 controls the first switch S2 and the second switch S3 to turn off when at least one of the sampled current value and the first voltage average value exceeds a corresponding protection threshold.

[0061] Preferably, in one embodiment, the battery control circuit 22 further includes a filter capacitor C1. The first controller U1, the first switch S2, the second switch S3, the first voltage sampling resistor RV1, the second voltage sampling resistor RV2, the first current sampling resistor R1, the second current sampling resistor R2, and the filter capacitor C1 together constitute a first protection circuit. The first controller U1 is a protection IC with high-end voltage driving capability. The VD1 terminal of the first controller U1 provides the operating power input and, together with the CS1 terminal, serves as a current sampling signal line connected across the parallel-connected first and second current sampling resistors R1 and R2. The magnitude of the voltage drop reflected across the first and second current sampling resistors R1 and R2 determines whether the charging / discharging current exceeds the current protection threshold. The VD1 terminal and VS1 terminal of the first controller U1 are both used as sampling signal lines for the voltage of the battery core 100, and the VS1 terminal is the zero potential point of the first controller U1. The first voltage sampling resistor RV1 is connected between the first negative pole 2211 and the VS1 terminal of the first controller U1 and is used to sample the first voltage value between the positive pole 2212 and the first negative pole 2211. The filter capacitor C1 is connected between the VD1 terminal and the VS1 terminal. The second voltage sampling resistor RV2 is connected between the second negative electrode 2213 and the VS1 terminal of the first controller U1 to sample a second voltage value between the positive electrode 2212 and the second negative electrode 2213, and obtains a first voltage average value of the first and second voltage values. When the first voltage average value exceeds the overvoltage protection threshold of the first controller U1, the CO1 terminal of the first controller U1 changes from high to low, and the first switch S2 and the second switch S3 are turned off to protect the battery core 100, preventing charging. When the first voltage average value is lower than the undervoltage protection threshold of the first controller U1, the CO1 terminal and the DO1 terminal of the first controller U1 change from high to low, and the first switch S2 and the second switch S3 are turned off to protect the battery core 100, preventing discharging.

[0062] Preferably, in one embodiment, the circuit protection module 223 includes a second protection circuit that protects the first conductive path 2002 and the second conductive path 2003 from charging and discharging under normal circumstances. Specifically, the second protection circuit is formed between the first negative electrode 2211, the positive electrode 2212, and the first battery port 2225, and between the positive electrode 2212, the second negative electrode 2213, and the second battery port 2226. Specifically, in one embodiment, the first switch unit 2231 includes a third switch S1, which is connected in series between the first positive terminal 2221 and the positive electrode 2212. The second switch unit 2232 includes a fourth switch S4, which is connected in series between the second positive terminal 2223 and the positive electrode 2212. The control unit 2233 includes a second controller U2, which is respectively connected to the third switch S1, the fourth switch S4, and the current sampling unit 2234 to form a second protection circuit, which controls the on / off of the third switch S1 and the fourth switch S4 based on the sampled current value of the current sampling unit 2234. Specifically, when the charging / discharging current of the battery core 100 exceeds a protection threshold, the second controller U2 controls the third switch S1 and the fourth switch S4 to be turned off, thereby blocking the conductive path between the positive electrode 2212 and the first battery port 2225 and the conductive path between the positive electrode 2212 and the second battery port 2226, thereby protecting the battery core 100.

[0063] As can be seen, the first and second protection circuits are two independent protection circuits that jointly protect the battery core 100. If one protection circuit is disabled, the other protection circuit will protect the battery core 100. When both the first and second protection circuits operate normally, the first protection circuit should logically perform the protection operation, especially the voltage protection function, first. The voltage protection includes overvoltage protection and undervoltage protection, with the overvoltage protection threshold typically being about 4.6V and the undervoltage protection threshold typically being about 2.5V.

[0064] Specifically, in one embodiment, the third switch S1 includes a charge switch K5 and a discharge switch K6. The fourth switch S4 includes a charge switch K7 and a discharge switch K8. The second controller U2 has high-end driving capability. The CO2 terminal and DO2 terminal of the second controller U2 output a voltage to the positive electrode 2212, which ranges from 4 to 5 V, may be 4 to 6 V, or may be other voltage values. That is, the CO2 terminal of the second controller U2 drives the charge switch K5 to turn on via the G5 terminal of the third switch S1 and drives the charge switch K7 to turn on via the G7 terminal of the fourth switch S4. The DO2 terminal of the second controller U2 drives the discharge switch K6 to turn on via the G6 terminal of the third switch S1 and drives the discharge switch K8 to turn on via the G8 terminal of the fourth switch S4, thereby forming a conductive path between the L5 and L6 terminals of the third switch S1 and between the L7 and L8 terminals of the fourth switch S4. When the first switch S2, the second switch S3, the third switch S1 and the fourth switch S4 are all turned on, the charging / discharging circuit from the first battery port 2225 and the second battery port 2226 to the battery core 100 is fully conductive, allowing charging or discharging to occur.

[0065] As can be understood, in one embodiment, the first switch S2, the second switch S3, the third switch S1, and the fourth switch S4 are voltage-driven MOS transistors, which are very widely used in the battery control circuit 22, and the operation principle thereof will not be described in detail here. The first switch S2 and the second switch S3 are simultaneously controlled by the first controller U1 to be turned on and off, and the third switch S1 and the fourth switch S4 are simultaneously controlled by the second controller U2 to be turned on and off. The first switch S2, the second switch S3, the third switch S1, and the fourth switch S4 should be the same model number on the same circuit board 21 and have symmetry, for example, the first switch The first switch S2, the second switch S3, the third switch S1, and the fourth switch S4 may each be one, or may each be one or more switches connected in parallel with the same number of switches. The first switch S2, the second switch S3, the third switch S1, and the fourth switch S4 may each be connected in parallel to reduce internal resistance and heat generation. For example, each switch is connected in parallel with one switch, for a total of eight switches, and the switches connected in parallel to each other are designed back-to-back in the layout, thereby minimizing the line impedance between the parallel-connected switches.

[0066] Therefore, adjacent to the positive terminal 2212 of the first battery port 2225 (i.e., the first rivet 13) is the first positive terminal 2221 of the first battery port 2225, which is connected to the third switch S1 and the first switch S2 and joins the first current sampling resistor R1, and away from the positive terminal 2212 is the first negative terminal 2222 of the first battery port 2225. Adjacent to the positive terminal 2212 of the second battery port 2226 is the second positive terminal 2223 of the second battery port 2226, which is connected to the fourth switch S4 and the second switch S3 and joins the second current sampling resistor R2, and away from the positive terminal 2212 is the second negative terminal 2224 of the second battery port 2226. The structure from the first positive terminal 2221 of the first battery port 2225 to the first switch unit 2231, and the structure from the second positive terminal 2223 of the second battery port 2226 to the second switch unit 2232 are bidirectional shunt structures. The first negative terminal 2222 of the first battery port 2225 and the second negative terminal 2224 of the second battery port 2226 are directly connected to the first cover plate 12 via the first negative electrode 2211 and the second negative electrode 2213. The negative polarity of the first cover plate 12 saves copper foil connection space on the circuit board 21 between them and reduces the heat dissipation pressure of the circuit board 21. The metal housing 11 also functions as a large heat dissipation fin, allowing heat generated in the conduction paths of the first negative electrode 2211 and the second negative electrode 2213 to be quickly dissipated. In addition, the first switch S2, the second switch S3, the third switch S1, the fourth switch S4, and the first current sampling resistor R1 and the second current sampling resistor R2 are all provided at the positive terminal of the battery core 100 to realize high-end driving, and the first controller U1 and the second controller U2 have high-end driving capabilities, and their CO1 terminals, DO1 terminals, CO2 terminals, DO2 terminals can output a voltage higher than that of the battery core 100, for example, a voltage more than one time the voltage of the battery core 100, and can drive to open the gates of the first switch unit 2231 and the second switch unit 2232.

[0067] Preferably, in one embodiment, the second protection circuit further includes a third voltage sampling resistor RV3 and a fourth voltage sampling resistor RV4, and the second controller U2 samples a third voltage value between the first negative pole 2211 and the positive pole 2212 through the third voltage sampling resistor RV3 and samples a fourth voltage value between the positive pole 2212 and the second negative pole 2213 through the fourth voltage sampling resistor RV4 to obtain second voltage average values ​​of the third and fourth voltage values, and the second controller U2 further samples the total current value of the current sampling unit 2234, and the second controller U2 controls the third switch S1 and the fourth switch S4 to be turned off when at least one of the sampled current value and the second voltage average value exceeds a corresponding protection threshold.

[0068] Preferably, in one embodiment, the battery control circuit 22 further includes a second filter capacitor C2, and the second controller U2, the third switch S1, the fourth switch S4, the third voltage sampling resistor RV3, the fourth voltage sampling resistor RV4, the first current sampling resistor R1, and the second current sampling resistor R2 together constitute a second protection circuit. The second controller U2 is a protection IC with high-end voltage driving capability, and its VD2 terminal provides the operating power input and, together with its CS2 terminal, forms a current sampling signal line connected across the parallel-connected first current sampling resistor R1 and the second current sampling resistor R2. The magnitude of the voltage drop reflected across the first current sampling resistor R1 and the second current sampling resistor R2 determines whether the charging / discharging current exceeds the current protection threshold. The third and fourth voltage sampling resistors RV3 and RV4 provide voltage sampling for the second controller U2. The VD2 and VS2 terminals of the second controller U2 are both used as sampling signal lines for the battery core voltage. The VS2 terminal is the zero potential point of the second controller U2. The third voltage sampling resistor RV3 is connected between the first negative pole 2211 and the VS2 terminal of the second controller U2 to sample a third voltage value between the positive pole 2212 and the first negative pole 2211. The fourth voltage sampling resistor RV4 is connected between the second negative pole 2213 and the VS2 terminal of the second controller U2 to sample a fourth voltage value between the positive pole 2212 and the second negative pole 2213. A filter capacitor C2 is connected between the VD2 and VS2 terminals. When the second voltage average value exceeds the overvoltage protection threshold of the second controller U2, the CO2 terminal of the second controller U2 changes from high to low, and the third switch S1 and the fourth switch S4 are controlled to be turned off to protect the battery core 100, preventing charging. When the second voltage average value is lower than the undervoltage protection threshold of the second controller U2, the CO2 terminal and DO2 terminal of the second controller U2 change from high to low, and the third switch S1 and the fourth switch S4 are controlled to be turned off to protect the battery core 100, preventing discharging.

[0069] Preferably, in one embodiment, the battery control circuit 22 further includes a communication management circuit, which includes a third controller U3, a current sampling unit 2234, and a fifth voltage sampling resistor RV5. The third controller U3 is provided adjacent to the first controller U1 or the second controller U2. Preferably, in one embodiment, the third controller U3 may be provided integrally with the first controller U1 or the second controller U2. The third controller U3 includes a temperature detection resistor NTC, which detects the temperature of the battery core 100, thereby allowing the electronic device system to determine a charging policy. The fifth voltage sampling resistor RV5 is connected to the positive pole 2212 and the VD3 terminal of the third controller U3, and the VS3 terminal of the third controller U3 is connected to the first negative pole 2211 and the second negative pole 2213. The third controller U3 samples a fifth voltage value between the first negative pole 2211 and the positive pole 2212 and a sixth voltage value between the positive pole 2212 and the second negative pole 2213, and obtains a third average voltage value based on the fifth and sixth voltage values. The third controller U3, the fifth voltage sampling resistor RV5, the temperature detection resistor NTC, the first current sampling resistor R1, and the second current sampling resistor R2 together constitute a communication management circuit. The VD3 terminal of the third controller U3 is a voltage sampling terminal connected to the positive pole 2212, the VS3 terminal is the zero potential point of the third controller U3 connected to the first negative pole 2211 and the second negative pole 2213, the SRN terminal and the SRP terminal are current sampling signal lines connected to both ends of the parallel-connected first current sampling resistor R1 and the second current sampling resistor R2, the SCL terminal is a clock signal line, and the SDA terminal is a data signal line, and the SCL terminal and the SDA terminal together form an information interaction function between the communication management circuit and the electronic device.

[0070] In this way, the first protection circuit, the second protection circuit, and the communication management circuit share the first current sampling resistor R1 and the second current sampling resistor R2. The first controller U1, the second controller U2, and the third controller U3 can determine the magnitude of the current in the charging circuit and the discharging circuit by detecting the voltage drop across the first current sampling resistor R1 and the second current sampling resistor R2, and perform corresponding determinations and corresponding controls.
