Detailed Description

The embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to specific embodiments, and other advantages and effects of the present invention will be easily understood by those skilled in the art from the disclosure of the present specification. The invention is capable of other and different embodiments and of being practiced or of being carried out in various ways, and its several details are capable of modification in various respects, all without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. It is to be noted that the features in the following embodiments and examples may be combined with each other without conflict.

It should be noted that the drawings provided in the following embodiments are only for illustrating the basic idea of the present invention, and the components related to the present invention are only shown in the drawings rather than drawn according to the number, shape and size of the components in actual implementation, and the type, quantity and proportion of the components in actual implementation may be changed freely, and the layout of the components may be more complicated.

According to the starting method, the starting system, the starting medium and the starting equipment of the boost chip for the automobile LED signal lamp, the hysteresis comparator loop is disconnected after the boost chip is electrified; updating the overvoltage point, and eliminating the overvoltage alarm state of the hysteresis comparator loop; restoring the hysteretic comparator loop; and judging whether the loop of the hysteresis comparator generates overvoltage alarm or not, and starting the boosting chip when the overvoltage alarm does not occur so as to solve the problem that the hysteresis comparator locks an overvoltage alarm state, and the realization mode is simple without increasing the material and labor cost.

The following describes in detail a method, a system, a medium, and an apparatus for starting a boost chip for an automotive LED signal lamp according to the present embodiment with reference to the drawings.

As shown in fig. 1, in an embodiment, the boost chip is a TPS92682 chip, and according to the official data manual of the boost chip TPS92682, the boost chip TPS92682 includes a GATE1 control terminal and a GATE2 control terminal, a CH1_ EN control register inside the boost chip is set to a high level signal, and the GATE1 control terminal is controlled by the conversion of a logic circuit inside the boost chip to output a low level signal, so as to implement V_OUT1The start-up output of (1); in the same way, the method for preparing the composite material,the control register is set to be a high level signal through the CH2_ EN in the boost chip, and the control end of the GATE2 is controlled to output a low level signal through the conversion of the logic circuit in the boost chip so as to realize V_OUT2The start-up output of (2).

As shown in fig. 2, in an embodiment, the boost chip specifically includes a setting circuit of an overvoltage point, a hysteresis comparator circuit, and a start circuit, where the setting circuit of the overvoltage point is used to transmit the set overvoltage point to the hysteresis comparator circuit; the hysteresis comparator loop is used for locking an overvoltage alarm state when the partial pressure of the output voltage is greater than the overvoltage point.

The method for starting the boost chip for the automotive LED signal lamp can be applied to all boost chips in which the setting circuit of the overvoltage point, the hysteresis comparator circuit and the starting circuit are arranged.

Specifically, the circuit for setting the overvoltage point includes a selector through which the set value of the overvoltage point is transmitted to the hysteresis comparator circuit.

Specifically, the hysteresis comparator loop comprises an input voltage end, a current source, an MOS (metal oxide semiconductor) tube, an alarm enabling switch and an overvoltage detection comparator. Input voltage end VDD with the one end of 20uA of electric current source is connected, the other end of 20uA of electric current source with the drain electrode of MOS pipe is connected, the source electrode of MOS pipe with the one end of warning enable switch is connected, the other end of warning enable switch with overvoltage detection comparator's forward input end is connected, overvoltage detection comparator's output with the grid of MOS pipe is connected for the status signal of output warning, status signal includes high level signal and low level signal.

Further, VOUT is the output voltage of the boost chip during operation, and the output voltage is R_FB2And R_FB1The two resistors are used as the voltage division amount of output voltage after voltage division and are respectively input to the positive input end of the overvoltage detection comparator and the negative input end of the UV comparator, and the UV comparator is used for detecting over-low voltage. The over-voltage detection comparator comprises an OV comparator, and the OV comparator is used for detecting over-voltage. OV_THRThe overvoltage detection threshold value, namely an overvoltage point, is set by software through two parameters of CHx _ OVDAC and CHxIADJ. When the software initializes the chip, a normal working voltage and an overvoltage protection voltage are set, and the overvoltage voltage is greater than the normal working voltage. And when the voltage VOUT works normally, the voltage of the VOUT is the normal working voltage set by the software. When VOUT is abnormal and the voltage after voltage division is larger than an overvoltage detection threshold value, namely an overvoltage point, the OV comparator outputs a high signal, CHx _ OV is generated to close chip output, software is informed, and an MOS tube at the rear end of 20uA is conducted. Every time a CHx _ OV overvoltage alarm signal appears and a CHx _ OV _ EN switch is closed, an internal 20uA current source is fed back to the input anode of the OV comparator in a positive feedback mode to form a hysteresis comparator. It should be noted that the high signal may be a high level signal, a high pulse signal, a rising edge signal, or a logic signal with a value of 1, and the low signal may be a low level signal, a low pulse signal, a falling edge signal, or a logic signal with a value of 0, and may be adaptively set according to the specific requirements of the internal receiving signal of the chip.

Furthermore, according to the comparison relationship that the positive input end and the negative input end of the OV comparator need to satisfy, it can be inferred that the condition that VOUT should satisfy when the alarm is eliminated is as follows: VOUT (volatile organic compound)<(1+R_FB2/R_FB1)x VFB_REF–(I_HYSTx R_FB2) Wherein, I_HYSTFor the current value of the current source, when the feedback resistance VOUT is 100k, the generated hysteresis voltage is 2V, namely when the voltage set by the BOOST voltage BOOST circuit is higher than the current actual voltage by more than 2V, the hysteresis comparator can clear the overvoltage alarm state of CHx _ OV, namely the high signal is set as a low signal, and the BOOST voltage BOOST chip can be started normally to work. However, due to the requirement of the quiescent current, if the feedback resistance needs to reach 1M ohm, the generated hysteresis voltage is 20V, that is, when the set voltage of the BOOST chip is higher than the current actual voltage by more than 20V, the hysteresis comparator may clear the over-voltage alarm state of CHx _ OV, and the BOOST chip may start to work normally. However, for most automobiles, the supply voltage is about 9V-24V, and the BOOST chip needs to be set to 44V for normal operation, so the prior artThe scheme (2) cannot meet the application range from 24V to 44V.

In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, a CHx _ OV _ EN switch is found on the positive feedback path according to the chip internal schematic. This switch is used to enable the CHx _ OV over-voltage alarm function, if this function is not enabled all the time, the problem of not enabling BOOST can be solved, but the chip will lose the over-voltage protection capability. In order to enable the chip to start without losing the capability of the over-voltage protection, the embodiment solves the problem by setting a specific start timing sequence.

Further, with a 1M feedback resistance, a CHx _ OV overvoltage alarm will inevitably occur and then be locked out. The reason for the overvoltage is due to the default BOOST overvoltage point setting and the cause of the deadlock is the hysteresis voltage. Therefore, the problem that the BOOST cannot be started can be solved only by changing the set value of the BOOST overvoltage point for updating when the hysteresis comparator does not work so as to clear the CHx _ OV overvoltage alarm state, and the switch CHx _ OV _ EN is disconnected to just enable the hysteresis comparator not to work. After the CHx _ OV overvoltage alarm state is cleared and the CHx _ OV _ EN switch is reconnected, the BOOST chip can work normally without losing the overvoltage protection capability. Therefore, the starting method of the boost chip for the automobile LED signal lamp specifically comprises the following steps:

and S31, disconnecting the hysteresis comparator loop after the boost chip is powered on.

Specifically, the alarm enable switch is opened, thereby opening the hysteresis comparator loop.

And S32, updating the overvoltage point, and eliminating the overvoltage alarm state of the hysteresis comparator loop.

Specifically, the overvoltage point is updated according to a first parameter value (1+ a second parameter value), and an updated value of the overvoltage point is transmitted to a negative input end of the overvoltage detection comparator, so that a high level signal at an output end of the overvoltage detection comparator is changed into a low level signal, and an overvoltage alarm state is eliminated;

the first parameter value is a value of the reference voltage set by a first parameter register, such as a value set by a chxadj register, and the second parameter value is a value of the reference voltage precision set by a second parameter register, such as a value set by a CHx _ OVDAC register.

Further, after the boost chip is powered on to generate an overvoltage alarm, a high level signal at the output end of the overvoltage detection comparator is transmitted to the selector, so that the selector opens a setting channel of the overvoltage point, and the updated overvoltage point is transmitted to a negative input end of the overvoltage detection comparator.

And S33, restoring the hysteresis comparator loop.

Specifically, the alarm enable switch is closed, restoring the hysteresis comparator loop.

And S34, judging whether the hysteresis comparator loop generates overvoltage alarm or not, and starting the boost chip when no overvoltage alarm is generated.

Specifically, after the state signal at the output end of the overvoltage detection comparator is read, whether the state signal is a low level signal is judged;

if yes, judging that no overvoltage alarm occurs, and starting the starting circuit through enabling an output signal to start the boosting chip;

if not, the state signal is read again after delaying the preset time and is judged, and the starting circuit is started through enabling the output signal until the overvoltage alarm state is eliminated, so that the boosting chip is started. The predetermined time may be 1ms or the rest of the delay time suitable for the operating frequency of the boost chip.

Further, as shown in fig. 4, in an embodiment, the starting method of the boost chip for the automotive LED signal lamp takes a TPS92682 chip as an example, and the operating method of the register specifically includes the following steps:

s41, the TPS92682 powers up. The TPS92682 does not enable output after the boost chip is electrified, and is in a state that the boost chip is only electrified but is not started, and power is not supplied to the output of a subsequent circuit. But due to the setting of a large feedback resistor, such as 1M ohm, an overvoltage alarm state occurs when the divided voltage of the output voltage VOUT is larger than an overvoltage point, and the value of the initial CHx _ OV _ EN register is a high level signal, so that the hysteresis comparator loop is switched on, and the alarm state is locked.

S42, clear CHx _ OV _ EN. And changing the value of the CHx _ OV _ EN register from the original high-level signal to a low-level signal to disconnect the alarm enabling switch.

And S43, setting an overpressure point. The numerical value of the overvoltage point is set through the CHxIADJ register, and the error floating range of the overvoltage point, namely the precision of the overvoltage point is set through the CHx _ OVDAC register.

In practical applications, the chxadj register is an 8-bit DAC, and the set value ranges from 85mV to 2.4V, and when chxadj is 9, the set update value VFB of the over-voltage point is set_REFIs 85 mV; when chxaiadj is 255, the set update value VFB of the overvoltage point is set_REFIt was 2.4V.

In practical application, the set value of the CHx _ OVDAC register and the overvoltage point VFB_REFThe corresponding relation of the precision of (1) is as follows:

when the set value of the CHx _ OVDAC register is 000, the OV_THR＝VFB_REF×(1+0％)；

When the set value of the CHx _ OVDAC register is 001, the OV_THR＝VFB_REF×(1+2.5％)；

When the set value of the CHx _ OVDAC register is 010, the OV_THR＝VFB_REF×(1+5％)；

When the set value of the CHx _ OVDAC register is 011, the OV_THR＝VFB_REF×(1+7.5％)；

When the set value of the CHx _ OVDAC register is 100, OV_THR＝VFB_REF×(1+10％)；

When the set value of the CHx _ OVDAC register is 101, OV_THR＝VFB_REF×(1+12.5％)；

When the set value of the CHx _ OVDAC register is 110, the OV_THR＝VFB_REF×(1+15％)；

When the set value of the CHx _ OVDAC register is 111, the OV_THR＝VFB_REF×(1+20％)。

It can be seen that if the value of the CHx _ OVDAC register is 010, the accuracy of the overvoltage point is within an error fluctuation range of 5%. Therefore, the updated value of the overpressure point is 2.4V × (1+ 5%) -2.52V.

And S44, setting CHx _ OV _ EN. And changing the value of the CHx _ OV _ EN register from the original low-level signal to a high-level signal to close the alarm enabling switch.

S45, wait for 1 ms. And providing a delay time for the state setting of the boost chip so as to ensure that all register settings are executed. It should be noted that the delay time of 1ms is only one implementation of the present embodiment, and other delay times suitable for the operating frequency of the boost chip are also included in the scope of the present invention.

S46, reading CHx _ OV. The state value of the CHx _ OV register is read. CHx _ OV may be 1 or 0.

S47, it is determined whether CHx _ OV is 0. If CHx _ OV is 0, go to step S48; if CHx _ OV is 1, the process proceeds to step S45.

S48, the boost chip is enabled by setting CHx _ EN. The value of the CHx _ EN register is set to the high signal.

It should be noted that the protection scope of the method for starting the boost chip for the automotive LED signal lamp according to the present invention is not limited to the execution sequence of the steps illustrated in the embodiment, and all the solutions obtained by adding, subtracting, and replacing the steps according to the principles of the present invention are included in the protection scope of the present invention.
