This application claims the benefit under 35 U.S.C. §119(a) of a Korean patent application filed on Mar. 21, 2013 in the Korean Intellectual Property Office and assigned Serial number 10-2013-0030276, the entire disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference.
The present disclosure relates to a mobile current measurement apparatus, a current measurement terminal, and a current measurement method. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to a mobile current measurement apparatus, a current measurement terminal, and a current measurement method capable of measuring a current of a Device-Under-Test (DUT) by using a wireless short distance communication while moving.
A current measurement apparatus of the related art measures a current of a Device-Under-Test (DUT) by using a current sensing resistor method. The current sensing resistor method measures a voltage difference generated by a current flowing through both ends of a sensing resistance by using an OPerational AMPlifier (OP AMP), and calculates the current through the measured voltage difference.
Such a current measurement apparatus has a wired connection with an apparatus for displaying the measurement result, e.g., an oscilloscope, which imposes restrictions on mobility, such that a desired DUT cannot be measured in a desired location. In addition, when the current measurement apparatus of the related art attempts to wirelessly transmit the measurement result to another apparatus, the increase of a sampling speed of the current measurement is limited due to a bottleneck.
Further, the current measurement apparatus of the related art just provides a current value or a current graph as the measurement result, but it has no analysis function and data storing function, such that a user should directly watch the result with the naked eye and intuitively determine the result.
Furthermore, in the current measurement apparatus of the related art, the OP AMP has its own voltage offset generated by the manufacturing process, such that an error occurs in an output end as much as the voltage offset, and such error causes deviation of the total measurement result. In the related art, to address this problem, a method of power compensation or a method of increasing a current sensing resistor value is used.
The method of power compensation is a method of adding a power compensation circuit to reduce the error. However, it has a problem of generating an addition error for an added reference power, and increasing of price and size of equipment due to the addition of expensive and high stability circuit components and a calibration function.
The method of increasing a current sensing resistor value of the related art has a problem in that the voltage supplied to the DUT is decreased to affect the performance of the measurement when measuring the current consumption of the DUT which uses a low voltage such as a portable terminal. Therefore, a need exists to develop a current measurement apparatus which is able to address the above problem and have mobility.
The above information is presented as background information only to assist with an understanding of the present disclosure. No determination has been made, and no assertion is made, as to whether any of the above might be applicable as prior art with regard to the present disclosure.

Another aspect of the present disclosure is to provide a current measurement terminal which records and notifies of an occurrence of abnormal current to a user when the abnormal current occurs in the terminal based on the measurement result received from a mobile current measurement apparatus.

The measurement circuit unit 110 may convert a current of a DUT, which is a measurement target, into a voltage to detect. To this end, the measurement circuit unit 110 may be connected with the DUT through a connector, a cable, or the like.
The measurement circuit unit 110 may be configured with a circuit as illustrated in
Referring to
The resistor may be connected with a voltage supplied to the current measurement apparatus 100 and the DUT, and convert the current of the DUT into a voltage. To this end, the resistor may be electrically connected with a voltage supplied to the measurement circuit unit 110 and the DUT.
The resistor may be connected with an amplifier. The ports of the amplifier (+ port and − port) are connected with ends of the resistor respectively. Accordingly, the amplifier may receive a voltage difference of the resistor as an input voltage, and output an output voltage according to the input voltage depending on a characteristic of the amplifier.
An Analog Digital Converter (ADC) may be connected with the output end of the amplifier. The ADC may convert the output voltage of the amplifier which is an analog type into a digital signal to send to the controller 120 so that the controller 120 may process the signal.
In addition, the measurement circuit unit 110 may include a ground port to process an end of the circuit to be electrically grounded, and at least one resistor to control an amplification ratio of the amplifier, and not limited to the above described configuration.
The controller 120 may measure the current based on the output voltage received from the measurement circuit unit 110. In more detail, the controller 120 may calculate and measure the current of the DUT based on the voltage supplied to the current measurement apparatus 100, the magnitude of the resistor provided in the measurement circuit unit 110, and the received output voltage of the amplifier. For instance, the controller 120 may determine the input voltage, i.e., the voltage measured in the resistor based on the output voltage by using the characteristic of the amplifier, and may calculate the current of the DUT by using the determined voltage and the magnitude of the resistor.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the controller 120 may compensate the voltage detected in the measurement circuit unit 110 by using a voltage offset due to the amplifier. The amplifier may output a certain voltage even when a voltage is not applied to the measurement circuit unit 110 because of its own resistor, which is called as a voltage offset. The voltage offset generates an error in the voltage detected in the measurement circuit unit 110, thereby generating an error of the current of the DUT. Accordingly, the controller 120 may compensate the voltage detected in the measurement circuit unit 110 as much as the voltage offset, such that the error for the current may be decreased or removed.
In more detail, the measurement circuit unit 110 may send the voltage output from the amplifier to the controller 120 when the measurement circuit unit 110 is not connected to the DUT and the current does not flow in the resistor. The controller 120 may store the received voltage as an offset voltage of the amplifier, i.e., a first offset voltage, a first compensation voltage, or the like.
In addition, the measurement circuit unit 110 may send the voltage output from the amplifier to the controller 120 when the measurement circuit unit 110 is not connected to the DUT and a reference current (e.g., 1 mA) flows in the resistor. The controller 120 may calculate an error between the received voltage and the voltage which should be measured theoretically by the reference current. In addition, the controller 120 may store a difference of the error value and the first offset voltage in the storage 130 as the offset voltage during the operation of the amplifier, i.e., a second offset voltage, a second compensation voltage, or the like.
Thereafter, the measurement circuit unit 110 may send the voltage output from the amplifier to the controller 120 when the measurement circuit unit 110 is connected to the DUT and the current is supplied to the current measurement apparatus 100. The controller 120 may measure an accurate current by compensating the received voltage by using the first offset voltage and the second offset voltage.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the controller 120 may perform a sampling for at least one measured current. The controller 120 may transmit a measurement result including at least one measured current. To this end, at least one measured current may be sampled in response to a transmission period of the wireless communication.
The controller 120 may perform a sampling for at least one measurement result generated according to a repeated current measurement. The controller 120 may perform a sampling for measurement result based on the wireless communication transmission period. That is, the controller 120 may compress a total measurement result in response to an amount of transmission that can be transmitted during the wireless communication transmission period. To this end, the controller 120 may extract a minimum value, a maximum value, and an average value for the measurement result. The controller 120 may extract a sample of the number appropriate to the wireless communication transmission period so as to decrease the error of the measurement result.
For instance, when the output period of the analog to digital converter is 200 μs the analog-to-digital converter may convert the output voltage of the amplifier into a digital signal every 200 μs to transmit to the controller 120. The controller 120 may calculate the current based on the transmitted digital signal, and performs a sampling for the calculated current.
For instance, the controller 120 may determine the maximum, minimum and average values with respect to ten currents which are calculated based on ten digital signals outputted from the analog to digital converter during 2 ms. The controller 120 may generate one measurement result based on the determined the maximum, minimum and average values.
When the transmission period of the wireless communication supported by the current measurement apparatus 100 is 10 ms, the controller 120 may form a single data frame with five measurement results to transmit to an external device during the transmission period. Thus, the controller 120 may reduce the amount of data transmission using the wireless communication, and prevent the transmission delay. The storage unit 130 may store a program or a command for the current measurement apparatus 100.
The storage unit 130 may include at least one type of storage medium among a flash memory type, a hard disk type, a multimedia card micro type, a card-type memory (e.g., SD or XD memory, etc.), a Random Access Memory (RAM), a Static Random Access Memory (SRAM), a Read-Only Memory (ROM), an Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM), a Programmable Read-Only Memory (PROM), a magnetic memory, a magnetic disk, and an optical disk.
The storage unit 130 may store a first offset, and a second offset. In addition, the storage unit 130 may temporarily or permanently store the voltage transmitted from the measurement circuit unit 110, the current calculated by the controller 120, and the measurement result generated from the controller 120 i.e., the sampling result.
The communication unit 140 may perform a wireless communication with an external device, e.g., a current measurement terminal 200. The communication unit 140 may perform the wireless communication with the external device by using a wireless short distance communication technology such as a Bluetooth communication, an infrared communication, a Near Field Communication (NFC), a Wi-Fi, or the like.

Further, the controller 120 may store a difference between the error value and the first offset voltage in the storage unit 130 as an offset voltage during operation of the amplifier, i.e., the second offset voltage, the second compensation voltage, or the like.
At operation 320, the controller 120 may convert a current into a voltage and detect the voltage.
The measurement circuit unit 110 may apply the voltage of both ends of the resistor as the input voltage of the amplifier in a state in which the DUT is connected, and transmit the output voltage of the amplifier to the controller 120 such that the controller 120 converts the current of the DUT into a voltage and detect the voltage.
At operation 330, the controller 120 may compensate the voltage by using the voltage offset.
The controller 120 may compensate the voltage detected by the measurement circuit unit 110 by using a pre-stored voltage offset. For instance, the controller 120 may multiply a ratio of the second voltage offset to the reference current used at the time of determining the second voltage offset by the detected voltage.

The controller 120 may perform the sampling for at least one measurement result generated according to the repetitive current measurement. The controller 120 may perform the sampling for the measurement result based on the wireless communication transmission period.
