With the development of automotive technology, automotive electronics and entertainment, more and more. Although these electronic systems to increase the pressure of energy for vehicles, the general, in the case of 1kW power, drive 100 km each person needs to consume 0.7 to 1.2 liters of gasoline, but is facing a shortage of energy, other the one hand, is the collapse of electronic systems as a result of electric cars can not start the case as the main reason could not start.

 

At the same time, the number of cars is increasing, while pollution emissions have become one of the most concerns in the world. At present Europe has adopted legislation on the limitation of CO2 emissions, according to the regulation, from 2012 to 2015, emissions of CO2 must be reduced from 160 g / km now to 120 ~ 125g/km. 2020, CO2 emissions from cars does not exceed 95 g / km. The law allows manufacturers of automotive design in the future must be taken into account the reduction of CO2 emissions or face heavy fines. Therefore, we must now seek to reduce CO2 emissions and save energy solutions. 367759-001 PB992A F4486B

 

Bosch Automotive Electronics division has been engaged in developing the management system of the electronic energy and matching Bosch electronic energy management system battery sensors, alternators controlled and integrated electronic control unit management software energy and other components.

 

Battery and detecting the discharge state and optimization

 

The electronic systems of energy management through the integration of sensors in the battery in the method of monitoring battery status can monitor the status of the battery in time. Accordingly, in the main control unit can also be set in the control systems of the battery and the sensors work strategies, define the range of battery life based on the current state of the burden battery, battery temperature and vehicle operating conditions, and adopt the appropriate strategy for the control of generators. Timely charge the battery. In this process, supply energy vehicles in complete control closed loop, which Bao Zheng Liao energy supply vehicles, optimization of energy management Zhengche ensure the engine starts Suoxu Zaici current minimum, to avoid the battery caused by the collapse Youyu Dian The vehicle can not start the problem again.

The dynamic control of voltage generator

 

Meanwhile, the electronic management system of energy is also able to use the generator alternator controlled to dynamically change the voltage setting to optimize the distribution of engine torque and vehicle energy management.

 

Conventional generator control can not use the additional mechanical energy, the operating voltage is not controllable. When the car speed up the process of operation, require a higher torque, the traditional still consumes a large generator torque motor, electronic power management system can dynamically control the voltage generator working to adjust the torque demand optimize the generator torque requirements of the vehicle during operation. When the car accelerates the state, the system reduces the operating voltage generator, thereby reducing the torque generator torque demand to ensure a more energy available to the vehicle speed. On the contrary, when the vehicle is at low state slow, increase the voltage of the generator, so the system can use the excess mechanical energy during deceleration to recharge the battery. apple powerbook g4 17-inch battery apple macbook 13 inch unibody battery

 

battery charge and discharge under normal circumstances, if the sensors detect the state of battery charge is less, the main control unit accordingly increase the generator voltage, the charge to improve the effectiveness of generators for fast charging. When the battery is full, the corresponding reduction of the voltage generator, so that producers in the state of rest to avoid over-charging the battery, which reduces consumption of torque. This can reduce fuel consumption and maintain the state of charge is in a safe range for the battery in a healthy range, the battery life.

 

Conclusion

 

In summary, the electronic energy management to some extent, improve the startup performance of the vehicle to ensure a reliable supply of electricity within the car and improve the reliability of electronic systems, reducing fuel consumption and reduce CO2 emissions, is growing increasingly used research and development of cars. Bosch continues to showcase the electronic power management for further optimization and new research. apple powerbook g4 12 inch battery apple powerbook g4 15 inch battery

How to improve the battery voltage in white LED applications (part 2)

Use more switches and the capacitor voltage conversion can be achieved more.

 

Similarly, the voltage conversion in two phases. In the first phase, switch S1 to S3 closed and switch S4 to S8 open. C1 and C2 in parallel, therefore, assume that C1 equals C2, then charged at half the input voltage Dell Latitude 2100 battery Dell Latitude E4300 battery

 

Cholder output capacitor charging supply current output. As this capacitor discharges, the output voltage until the desired output voltage below the second stage is activated to increase the output voltage to the above value. In the second phase, C1 and C2 in parallel, connected between Vin and Vout. Close switch S4 to S7, and S1 to S3 and S8 to open. Because the voltage drop across the capacitor is not changing, the transition voltage output to 1.5 times the input voltage

 

Voltage step-up is completed by the following model by closing S1 to S7 S8 and maintain open access to 1 times the voltage conversion gain.

 

Pulse frequency modulation (PFM) program

 

Figure shows a simplified frequency pulse modulation (PFM) regulatory program, which has used a number of gains. Dell Latitude E5400 battery Dell Latitude E5500 battery

 

Down the output voltage through the pump / SKIP comparator with 1.2V reference voltage for comparison. PUMP / SKIP comparator output voltage is linear in the start, to ensure a soft start function. When the output voltage exceeds the desired limit, the device does not open, will offer very little current consumption. During this idle state, the output capacitor Cholder the output load current. With the continued discharge capacitor and the output voltage until the desired output voltage below the output voltage until the charge pump is activated again to exceed this.

 

In the light load, PFM regulatory framework of the main advantages is obvious. Usually provided by the power output load capacity. Supply current is very low, only from time to time by the output capacitor charge pump to reload. Dell Latitude E6400 battery Dell Latitude E6500 battery

 

In short, the charge controller input of the pump in a wide range of high performance can be maintained because the entrance - the current output voltage conversion according to the basic regulation, not more than the voltage input multiplied by the gain of charge pump of the value of the output voltage will result in a lower power converter further, and efficiency will be reduced proportionately.

 

Converter input ratio in / out allows the ability to change the gain of the input voltage range to finish all the best efficiency. Ideally, the gain should be a change in linear style. In fact, given the number of fixed capacitors and switches, can reach only a limited gain configuration.

 

In the figure, the input voltage must be adjusted, and was fed to three comparators positive nodes. All nodes connected to compare reverse the output voltage. The input / output voltage ratio, the output of the comparator to provide a word of three with a gain control circuit, the gain control circuit is used to select the smallest gain G, so you get the conversion desired voltage. However, white LED applications, select the correct gain G is not only the voltage input and output. dell inspiron 1150 battery dell inspiron 1300 battery

 

Card is used to improve blood adaptive charge pump LED drivers, earning up to one and a half times that. Charge pump connected to the input pins VIN, Vout and the output pin is connected. By adjusting the voltage Vout will be stable in the VREG this constant level. For the anode configuration with a total of LEDs, each input LED current can be controlled using the internal power source, the peak current drive by an external resistor (RSET) to define.

 

This calculation method is correct or not depends on the following prerequisites: that is, value-VLED VOUT must be large enough to make the component chain does not appear to saturate. In fact, for light emitting diodes to provide a constant current source of tension must be the minimum, and this voltage is called the upper limit of the lowest voltage (HYV), its value will change with the resistance RHR change: dell inspiron 1100 battery fpcbp73ap fpcbp95

 

charge pump must continue to change for the gain multiplier to ensure that the constant current, to decide what are the multiple gain factors, including the voltage drop of light emitting diode, current source of tension and input voltage. So even if the input voltage range is extremely broad, double charge pump can still win the most efficient operations to reduce energy consumption battery.

 

Summary

Using the method of inductor-capacitor circuit switch and some benefits, an obvious advantage is the elimination of the inductor and the electromagnetic design problems. Switched capacitor converters in general have a relatively low noise and minimal EMI radiation. In addition, the application circuit is very simple, just a little bit of capacitors. Because the case in the absence of inducer, the final height of the CPC is typically higher than the same device switching converters smaller. fujitsu lifebook t4020 battery fpcbp121 fpcbp121ap

How to improve the battery voltage in white LED applications (part 1)

White LED is usually a constant current DC source to maintain a constant brightness. The use of single lithium-ion battery for portable applications, white LED current source and the amount of voltage drop can be higher or lower than the battery voltage, which means that the white light needs time to raise the voltage of the battery. The best way to fulfill this request is to use the step-up DC-DC converters. This method can greatly improve efficiency, but the cost of rising costs and PCB area. Another update is to use the charge pump voltage battery, also called switched capacitor converter. This paper will examine in detail the operating principle of this device. Dell Inspiron 1470 battery Dell Inspiron 1470n battery

 

The basic principles of charge pump

 

Capacitor is used to store electrical charge or electrical energy, and time set for the default rate will be the release of the component.

 

If an ideal capacitor with an ideal voltage source VG dependents will be based on Dirac current pulse of charge stored function immediately. The total amount of stored charge calculated by the following Q = CVG

 

The real capacitor with equivalent series resistance (ESR) and equivalent series inductance (ESL), the two that will not affect the ability of the capacitor energy storage. However, they switched voltage converter capacitor overall conversion efficiency has a great influence. The equivalent circuit charging the capacitor, as shown, which switch RSW is the resistance. Load current path with a series inductance, through appropriate design of the layout device can reduce the series inductance. Dell Inspiron 14z battery Dell Inspiron 1570 battery

 

Once the circuit is energized, it will feature the exponential phase until it reaches a stable condition today. The limits of the parasitic capacitance of the peak load current, and increase the time of charge transfer. Therefore, the charge storage capacitor can not be performed immediately, which means that the initial voltage across the capacitor is zero. Charge pumps capacitors on the use of this feature, as indicated.

 

This method can be realized using the voltage times the pressure. Switching signal is usually 50% duty cycle, which usually produces the best efficiency of charge transfer. Let us learn more about the process of charge transfer and voltage converter capacitor parasitic how they affect their work.

 

The figure shows the voltage doubler capacitor switched steady state current and voltage waveforms. According to the principle of conservation of energy, the average input current is twice the current production. Dell Inspiron 1570n battery Dell Inspiron 15z battery

 

Initially, the load current flow to the C1. The initial value of load current depends on the initial voltage across the capacitor C1, C1 ESR and resistance switch. Load to C1, the charge current decreases exponentially. The charging time constant is the cycle of switching time, small time constant load will result in the peak current is increased. At that time, the output capacitor Cholder provide linear discharge of the battery charge current, the discharge is equal to:

 

In the second phase, C1 + connected to the output, the discharge current (the current size of the load current and past) C1 to flow through the load. At this stage, the output capacitor current IOUT in about 2. While the change in the course should be able to generate an output voltage IOUT ESRC_HOLD 2, the use of ceramic capacitors with low ESR made this change negligible. At this stage, Cholder linear power potential over the following dell inspiron 1525 battery dell inspiron 1526 battery

 

Higher switching frequency using a smaller output capacitor for the same ripple.

 

Voltage Charge pump output parasitic effects of lead than the increase in load current. In fact, there are always 2 IOUT RMS current flowing through C1 and the two switches (2Rsw), leading to lower power consumption

 

In addition to these purely resistive losses, IOUT RMS current flowing through the switched capacitor C1 of equal strength, the energy created is short, because of low ESR ceramic capacitors, high frequency switching, the output drive and output voltage drop depends on the switch resistance. dell inspiron 1420 battery dell inspiron 1501 battery

For a single battery-powered applications power monitoring (part 2)

Using knowledge of the impedance of the battery, to achieve accurate load and temperature compensation. The most important is that the parameters of the battery through dynamic learning, those measures in the life of the battery can be measured with precision over power. Coulomb counting method used alone, or the battery voltage is compared with the applicable law, impedance technologically to the extent of remaining battery capacity has become more outstanding. B154PW01 B154PW02 V.0 B154SW01

 

He is running the process, the need to continue to maintain the impedance of the battery (Rbat) and depth of discharge (DOD) and the relationship between the temperatures of the function of maintaining database form. Understanding what happened in different conditions will determine when the operation or use of these forms must be updated. Meter, the non-volatile memory that there are many definitions of charge, discharge, after releasing the load, discharge and other state after the relaxation of current threshold. After the charge or stop the flow stopped the relaxation time “to stabilize the voltage of the battery.

 

handheld before starting the open circuit voltage by measuring the battery (VCA), then with the OCV (DOD, T) to compare table method to determine the state of battery charge specific. When the handheld is active, and access to the load, then started the current method based on counting points Coulomb. Coulomb cons load by measuring the amount and form part of continuously calculate the value SOC. B156XW01 V.0 B156XW02 B170PW01

 

The total capacity of QMAX can load or unload when the battery voltage before and after the change is small enough, in a state of complete relaxation of two OCV readings calculated.

 

Rbat (DOD, T) table in the discharging process is continually updated. Computers used to calculate the table in the load current and temperature conditions, when the voltage at the end of his mandate. The overall impedance of the battery with the battery charge and discharge cycles of aging and the increase.

 

With the impedance information of the battery, use read-only program instructions include memory (inthefirmware) simulation algorithm for determining the voltage remaining capacity (RM). Simulation algorithm first calculates the present value SOCstart, then calculated the same load current, and the value of SOC decrease in future as the battery voltage. When simulating the battery voltage VBAT (SOCI, T) of the voltage at the battery terminals (3.OV typical value), the acquisition and the voltage corresponding to values of SOC and scored Socfinal.

The system uses gas gauge single communications port SDQ SOC and duration of operation is near the end (Run-Time-to-empty) and other information.

 

Even in the case of load variations, IT gauges can accurately predict the remaining battery power. For example, digital cameras at different way of working, the battery is different. Figure shows how he gauges to accurately predict the remaining capacity of the battery. Remaining error rate prediction is less than 1%. And, because the battery to predict remaining battery impedance and the effect of aging can be updated in real time, so that the battery can maintain for the duration of this small error.

For a single battery-powered applications power monitoring (part 1)

System of energy management to meet the greatest challenge is how to extend the operating time of battery. In addition to the search for new energy density and power system designers looking to use the battery as efficiently as possible methods. Most of them focus on improving the DC / DC conversion efficiency, prolonging battery life, but often neglected and the efficiency of power conversion and battery capacity as important as issues gas gauge the accuracy of the battery. If the battery gauges to monitor the margin of error of ± 10% in order to avoid loss of critical data, the system can only use 90% of battery power. This equates to a loss of 10% of the capacity of the battery or battery life. B150XG02 B154EW01 B154EW02

 

management wireless account access, data processing and medical monitoring and many other mobile applications remaining capacity of the battery requirements of high accuracy to avoid a sudden closure due to run out of power. However, to ensure that the life cycle of the battery, the overheated state or use excess electricity load measurement accuracy is difficult, end users, and even some system designers have underestimated this. Mainly because of the battery can power and firing speed, temperature, aging and self-discharge characteristics of a function. Develop an algorithm to accurately define the characteristics of the battery self-discharge and the effects of aging on the capacity of the battery are almost impossible to achieve. In addition, the fuel gauges traditional battery requires the battery is fully charged and discharged completely current capacity of the battery, which rarely occur in real applications, resulting in greater measurement error. Therefore, the battery is difficult to accurately predict the operating cycle, the remaining battery capacity and time.

 

This article describes how to use the latest technology 11 for measuring battery impedance tracking technology to solve the above problems, the document also cites a unique solution of the lithium-ion batteries for a case of simple design. B154EW04 V.7 B154EW04 V.1 B154EW03

 

The existing electricity problems in measurement techniques

 

Down lithium-ion battery is the main reason for the battery duration of the film, this common misunderstanding. In fact, continued to increase the impedance of the battery (not decrease battery capacity), which led to the battery life, system shutdown ahead of a key. 100 in the battery charge and discharge cycles or so, the capacity of the battery is only down 5%, while the DC impedance of the battery increases to double or triple the rate of factor party. The aging of the increase in impedance of the battery is a direct consequence of the fall of internal pressure caused by the load current increases. A result, aging batteries to minimum operating voltage (or the termination voltage) of the time much sooner than the new battery.

 

Traditional battery measurement technique is mainly based on the voltage and coulomb counting algorithm development, and measure the performance limitations are obvious. Since low cost and simple, based on the method of voltage measurement is widely used in mobile phones and other handheld devices, but using the impedance of the battery over time will change and affect the accuracy of the method. B154EW04 B154EW08 B154EW08 V.1

 

The loading conditions and temperature changes can cause the battery capacity of up to 50% discount. Most end users in the use of real gas gauge is not equipped with handheld devices, have experienced a sudden battery drain caused by the closure of the situation. On the other hand, Coulomb counting method adopted a different method of continuously thanks to the integral of Coulomb to calculate the amount consumed and the charge state of charge (SOC), while the total capacity is known therefore, the remaining capacity can be valuable. The disadvantage of this approach is difficult to accurately quantify (model) of the discharge power, and because the method does not perform a periodic calibration cycle, resulting in measurement error over time is increasing. These algorithms do not solve the change in impedance of the battery. To avoid a sudden stop, the designer must be an early termination of the system, to retain more energy, which leads to much electricity is wasted.
