1Reliability
If traditional control circuits are used in heat guns, then the device can perform basic heating functions, but the electromagnetic compatibility is too low to pass safety standard tests
Solution Approach 1:
An EMC processing circuit is introduced as an intermediary component between the power supply and the control circuit. This circuit includes common mode inductors, capacitors, and voltage regulators that filter and stabilize the power input, preventing electromagnetic interference from affecting the control system while maintaining proper device operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements protective measures in advance by incorporating surge protection circuits, voltage regulators, and EMI filters before the interference can affect the control system. These components cushion against voltage spikes and electromagnetic disturbances before they reach sensitive circuitry, ensuring compliance with safety standards.
2Ease of operation
If multiple auxiliary circuits are added to improve overall circuit performance, then temperature control and display improve, but the circuit complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The control circuit is designed with multi-functional components that perform multiple tasks. For example, the temperature sensor serves both measurement and control functions, while the microcontroller integrates temperature regulation, display control, and safety monitoring in a single unit, reducing overall circuit complexity while maintaining comprehensive functionality.
Solution Approach 2:
Multiple auxiliary circuits are merged into an integrated control system. The temperature display circuit, power off time delay circuit, and zero-crossing detection circuit are combined with the main control unit, allowing these functions to share common components and reducing the total number of separate circuits needed.
