In the above embodiment, the segmented voltage threshold circuit 100, the segmented voltage conditioning circuit 200, and the selection circuit 300 are arranged. Voltage signal conditioning is optimized. The voltage may be automatically segmented and conditioned. The circuit may be flexibly adapted for multi-segment voltage conditioning. The applicable sampling range of voltage sampling conditioning may be increased, and sampling accuracy and universality may be improved. Scenarios that voltage sampling conditioning can be applied may be increased. Universality of the circuit and the accuracy of sampling conditioning may be improved.

In an embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, the selection circuit 300 includes a first comparator B1, a second comparator B2, a third comparator B3, a fourth comparator B4, a first switching tube Q1, and a second switching tube Q2.

A first input terminal of the first comparator B1 is configured to receive the input voltage signal, a second input terminal of the first comparator B1 is connected to an output terminal of the first segment voltage threshold sub-circuit 110, and an output terminal of the first comparator B1 is connected to the first segment voltage conditioning sub-circuit 210. A power supply end of the first segment voltage threshold sub-circuit 110 is configured to connect to a direct current power supply VCC. A first input terminal of the second comparator B2 is connected to the output terminal of the first segment voltage threshold sub-circuit 110, a second input terminal of the second comparator B2 is configured to receive the input voltage signal, and an output terminal of the second comparator B2 is connected to a gate of the first switching tube Q1 and a gate of the second switching tube Q2. A first input terminal of the third comparator B3 is connected to an output terminal of the second segmented voltage threshold subcircuit 120, a second input terminal of the third comparator B3 is connected to a source of the first switching tube Q1, and an output terminal of the third comparator B3 is connected to the third segmented voltage conditioning subcircuit 230. A first input terminal of the fourth comparator B4 is connected to the source of the first switching tube Q1, a second input terminal of the fourth comparator B4 is connected to the output terminal of the second segmented voltage threshold subcircuit 120, and an output terminal of the fourth comparator B4 is connected to the second segmented voltage conditioning subcircuit 220. A drain of the first switching tube Q1 is connected to the input voltage signal. A drain of the second switching tube Q2 is connected to the direct current power supply VCC. A source of the second switching tube Q2 is connected to a power supply end of the second segmented voltage threshold sub-circuit 120

Each of the first comparator B1, the second comparator B2, the third comparator B3, and the fourth comparator B4 may be an operational comparator. Each of the first switching tube Q1 and the second switching tube Q2 may be a MOS tube. For example, each of the first switching tube Q1 and the second switching tube Q2 may be an N-type MOS tube.

For example, in the following illustration, each of the first comparator B1, the second comparator B2, the third comparator B3, and the fourth comparator B4 may be the operational comparator; and each of the first switching tube Q1 and the second switching tube Q2 is the N-type MOS tube. The first input terminal of the first comparator B1 refers to an inverting input terminal of the first comparator B1, and the second input terminal of the first comparator B1 refers to the in-phase input terminal of the first comparator B1. The first input terminal of the second comparator B2 refers to an inverting input terminal of the second comparator B2, and the second input terminal of the second comparator B2 refers to an in-phase input terminal of the second comparator B2. The first input terminal of the third comparator B3 refers to an inverting input terminal of the third comparator B3, and the second input terminal of the third comparator B3 refers to an in-phase input terminal of the third comparator B3. The first input terminal of the fourth comparator B4 refers to an inverting input terminal of the fourth comparator B4, and the second input terminal of the fourth comparator B4 refers to an in-phase input terminal of the fourth comparator B4.

Since the power supply end of the first segmented voltage threshold sub-circuit 110 is connected to the direct current power supply VCC, the first segmented voltage threshold sub-circuit 110 may divide a voltage of the direct current power supply VCC to output the first voltage threshold signal. Since the first input terminal of the first comparator B1 receive the input voltage signal, the second input terminal of the first comparator B1 receives the first voltage threshold signal, the first comparator B1 compares the voltage value of the input voltage signal to voltage value of the first voltage threshold signal. In response to the voltage value of the input voltage signal being greater than the voltage value of the first voltage threshold signal, the first segmented voltage conditioning sub-circuit 210 is disconnected. In response to the voltage value of the input voltage signal being less than the voltage value of the first voltage threshold signal, the first comparator B1 transmits the first conduction signal to the first segment voltage conditioning sub-circuit 210, such that the first segment voltage conditioning sub-circuit 210 conditions the input voltage signal based on the received first conduction signal to output the first output voltage signal. Exemplarily, the first conduction signal may be a high voltage level signal. For example, the first comparator B1 transmits a low voltage level signal to the first voltage conditioning sub-circuit 210 in response to the voltage value of the input voltage signal being greater than the voltage value of the first voltage threshold signal, such that the first voltage conditioning sub-circuit 210 remains being disconnected. The first comparator B1 transmits a high voltage level signal to the first voltage conditioning sub-circuit 210 in response to the voltage value of the input voltage signal being less than the voltage value of the first voltage threshold signal, such that the first voltage conditioning sub-circuit 210 is conducted and is operating.

Since the first input terminal of the second comparator B2 receives the first voltage threshold signal, the second input terminal of the second comparator B2 receives the input voltage signal, the second comparator B2 compares the voltage value of the input voltage signal to the voltage value of the first voltage threshold signal. In response to the voltage value of the input voltage signal being less than the voltage value of the first voltage threshold signal, each of the first switching tube Q1 and the second switching tube Q2 is disconnected, such that the second segmented voltage regulation sub-circuit 220 and the third segmented voltage regulation sub-circuit 230 are disconnected. The second comparator B2 controls the first switching tube Q1 and the second switching tube Q2 to be connected in response to the voltage value of the input voltage signal being greater than the voltage value of the first voltage threshold signal. For example, the second comparator B2 transmits the low voltage level signal to the gate of the first switching tube Q1 and the gate of the second switching tube Q2 in response to the voltage value of the input voltage signal being less than the voltage value of the first voltage threshold signal, such that the first switching tube Q1 and the second switching tube Q2 remain being disconnected. The second comparator B2 transmits the high voltage level signal to the gate of the first switching tube Q1 and the gate of the second switching tube Q2 in response to the voltage value of the input voltage signal being greater than the voltage value of the first voltage threshold signal, such that the first switching tube Q1 and the second switching tube Q2 are conducted and operating.

Since the drain of the second switching tube Q2 is connected to the direct current power supply VCC and the source of the second switching tube Q2 is connected to the power supply end of the second segmented voltage threshold sub-circuit 120, the second segmented voltage threshold sub-circuit 120 is conducted in response to the second switching tube Q2 being conducted, such that the second segmented voltage threshold sub-circuit 120 transmits the second voltage threshold signal to the first input terminal of the third comparator B3 and the second input terminal of the fourth comparator B4 respectively. Since the drain of the first switching tube Q1 is configured to receive the input voltage signal, the first switching tube Q1 is conducted in response to the second switching tube Q2 being conducted. In this case, the first input terminal of the third comparator B3 receives the second voltage threshold signal, and the second input terminal of the third comparator B3 receives the input voltage signal. Further, the third comparator B3 compares the voltage value of the input voltage signal and the voltage value of the second voltage threshold signal. The third segmented voltage conditioning sub-circuit 230 remains being disconnected in response to the voltage value of the input voltage signal being less than the voltage value of the second voltage threshold signal. The third comparator B3 transmits the third conduction signal to the third segmented voltage conditioning sub-circuit 230 in response to the voltage value of the input voltage signal being greater than the voltage value of the second voltage threshold signal, such that the third voltage conditioning circuit 230 conditions the input voltage signal based on the received third conduction signal to output the third output voltage signal.

Since the drain of the first switching tube Q1 is configured to receive the input voltage signal, the first switching tube Q1 is conducted in response to the second switching tube Q2 being conducted. In this case, the second input terminal of the fourth comparator B4 receives the second voltage threshold signal, and the first input terminal of the fourth comparator B4 receives the input voltage signal. Further, the fourth comparator B4 compares the voltage value of the input voltage signal to the voltage value of the second voltage threshold signal. The second segmented voltage conditioning sub-circuit 220 is disconnected in response to the voltage value of the input voltage signal being greater than the voltage value of the second voltage threshold signal. The fourth comparator B4 transmits the second conduction signal to the second segmented voltage conditioning sub-circuit 220 in response to the voltage value of the input voltage signal being less than the voltage value of the second voltage threshold signal, such that the second segmented voltage conditioning sub-circuit 220 conditions the input voltage signal based on the received second conduction signal to output the second output voltage signal.

In the above embodiment, the segmented voltage threshold circuit 100, the segmented voltage conditioning circuit 200, and the selection circuit 300. The selection circuit 300 includes the first comparator B1, the second comparator B2, the third comparator B3, the fourth comparator B4, the first switching tube Q1, and the second switching tube Q2. The input voltage signal is compared and processed by defining a plurality of input voltage ranges. When the voltage value of the input voltage signal falls into a corresponding input voltage range, the voltage conditioning sub-circuit corresponding to the range (the first voltage conditioning sub-circuit, the second voltage conditioning sub-circuit, and the third voltage conditioning sub-circuit) is conducted to achieve segmented and selectable voltage signal conditioning. In the present disclosure, the voltage signal conditioning is optimized, the voltage is automatically segmented and conditioned. The circuit may be flexibly adapted for multi-segment voltage conditioning. The applicable sampling range of the voltage sampling conditioning is increased, and the sampling accuracy and universality is improved. Therefore, scenarios that voltage sampling and conditioning are increased, and universality and accuracy of the circuit are improved.

In an example, as shown in FIG. 4, the first segment voltage threshold sub-circuit 110 includes a first resistor R1 and a second resistor R2. A first terminal of the first resistor R1 is connected to the direct current power supply VCC, a second terminal of the first resistor R1 is connected to a first terminal of the second resistor R2. A second terminal of the second resistor R2 is connected to the ground. The second input terminal of the first comparator B1 and the first input terminal of the second comparator B2 are connected between the first terminal of the first resistor R1 and the first terminal of the second resistor R2.

Due to the connection between the first resistor R1 and the second resistor R2, when a resistance value of the first resistor R1 is r1, a resistance value of the second resistor R2 is r2, and a voltage value of the direct current power supply VCC is vcc, the voltage threshold value of the first voltage threshold signal of the first segmented voltage threshold sub-circuit 110 is:

$V TH 1 = \frac{r 2}{(r 1 + r 2)} v cc .$

Exemplarily, each of the first resistor R1 and the second resistor R2 may be an adjustable resistor.

In an example, as shown in FIG. 4, the second segmented voltage threshold sub-circuit 120 includes a third resistor R3 and a fourth resistor R4. A first terminal of the third resistor R3 is connected to the source of the second switching tube Q2, and a second terminal of the third resistor R3 is connected to a first terminal of the fourth resistor R4. A second terminal of the fourth resistor R4 is connected to the ground. The first input terminal of the third comparator B3 and the second input terminal of the fourth comparator B4 are connected between the second terminal of the third resistor R3 and the first terminal of the fourth resistor R4.

Due to the connection between the third resistor R3 and the fourth resistor R4, when a resistance value of the third resistor R3 is r3, a resistance value of the fourth resistor R4 is r4, and a voltage value of the direct current power supply VCC is vcc, the voltage threshold value of the second voltage threshold signal of the second segmented voltage threshold sub-circuit 120 is:

$V TH 2 = \frac{r 4}{(r 3 + r 4)} v cc .$

Exemplarily, each of the third resistor R3 and the fourth resistor R4 may be an adjustable resistor.

Based on the voltage threshold value set for the first segment voltage threshold sub-circuit 110 and the voltage threshold value set for the second segment voltage threshold sub-circuit 120, a detection range of the input voltage (VIN) may be divided into three ranges as follows: a first range is VIN<VTH1; a second segment is VTH1<VIN<VTH2; and a third segment is VIN>VTH2.

In an example, as shown in FIG. 5, the first segmented voltage conditioning sub-circuit 210 includes a third switching tube Q3 and a first proportional operational amplifier sub-circuit 212. A gate of the third switching tube Q3 is connected to the output terminal of the first comparator B1, and a drain of the third switching tube Q3 is configured to access the input voltage signal. A source of the third switching tube Q3 is connected to an in-phase input terminal of the first proportional amplifier sub-circuit 212, an output terminal of the first proportional amplifier sub-circuit 212 is configured to output a first proportional amplified voltage signal.

The first proportional operational amplifier sub-circuit 212 is configured to amplify the input voltage signal in a first preset proportion.

When the voltage value VIN of the input voltage signal is less than the voltage threshold value VTH1 of the first voltage threshold signal, the first comparator B1 outputs the high voltage level signal (i.e., the first conduction signal), and the gate of the third switching tube Q3 receives the first conduction signal, and therefore, the third switching tube Q3 is conducted. The drain of the third switching tube Q3 is configured to access the input voltage signal. The source of the third switching tube Q3 is connected to the in-phase input terminal of the first proportional operational amplifier sub-circuit 212. In this way, the in-phase input terminal of the first proportional operational amplifier sub-circuit 212 receives the input voltage signal, and the input voltage signal is amplified by the first proportional operational amplifier sub-circuit 212 based on the first preset proportion, such that the first proportional amplified voltage signal is output.

In an example, as shown in FIG. 5, the second segmented voltage conditioning sub-circuit 220 includes a fourth switching tube Q4, a second proportional amplifier sub-circuit 222, a first differential amplifier sub-circuit 224, and a first continuously-output conditioning circuit 226. A gate of the fourth switching tube Q4 is connected to the output terminal of the fourth comparator B4, and a drain of the fourth switching tube Q4 is configured to access the input voltage signal.

An inverting input terminal of the first differential amplifier circuit 224 is connected to the first continuously-output conditioning circuit 226. An output terminal of the first differential amplifier circuit 224 is configured to output the conditioned second proportional amplified voltage signal.

The second proportional operational amplifier sub-circuit 222 is configured to amplify the input voltage signal in a second preset proportion. The first differential amplifier sub-circuit 224 has circuit symmetry and may stabilize an operating point. The first continuously-output conditioning circuit 226 is configured to condition an output voltage, such that the output voltage continuous. For example, the first continuously-output conditioning circuit 226 is configured to output a first continuously-output conditioned signal.

When the voltage value VIN of the input voltage signal is greater than the voltage threshold value VTH1 of the first voltage threshold signal and is less than the voltage threshold value VTH2 of the second voltage threshold signal, the fourth comparator B4 outputs the high voltage level signal (i.e., the second conduction signal), and the gate of the fourth switching tube Q4 receives the second conduction signal, such that the fourth switching tube Q4 is conducted. The drain of the fourth switching tube Q4 is configured to access the input voltage signal. The source of the fourth switching tube Q4 is connected to the in-phase input terminal of the second proportional amplifier sub-circuit 222. In this way, the in-phase input terminal of the second proportional amplifier sub-circuit 222 receives the input voltage signal, and the input voltage signal is amplified by the second proportional amplifier sub-circuit 222 based on the second preset proportion, such that the second proportional amplified voltage signal is input to the in-phase input terminal of the first differential amplifier sub-circuit 224. Since the inverting input terminal of the first differential amplifier sub-circuit 224 is connected to the first continuously-output conditioning circuit 226, the inverting input terminal of the first differential amplifier sub-circuit 224 is connected to the first continuously-output conditioned signal. A differential amplification process is performed on the first continuously-output conditioned signal, such that the output terminal of the first differential amplifier sub-circuit 224 outputs the conditioned second proportional amplified voltage signal.

A gate of the fifth switching tube Q5 is connected to the output terminal of the third comparator B3, and a drain of the fifth switching tube Q5 is configured to access the input voltage signal. A source of the fifth switching tube Q5 is connected to an in-phase input terminal of the third proportional amplifier sub-circuit 232. An output terminal of the third proportional amplifier sub-circuit 232 is configured to transmit a third proportional amplified voltage signal to an in-phase input terminal of the second differential amplifier sub-circuit 234. An inverting input terminal of the second differential amplifier circuit 234 is connected to the second continuously-output adjustment circuit 236. An output terminal of the second differential amplifier circuit 234 is configured to output the conditioned third proportional amplified voltage signal.

The third proportional operational amplifier sub-circuit 232 is configured to amplify the input voltage signal in a third preset proportion. The second differential amplification sub-circuit 234 has circuit symmetry and may stabilize the operating point. The second continuously-output conditioning circuit 236 is configured to condition the output voltage, such that the output voltage is continuous. For example, the second continuously-output conditioning circuit 236 is configured to output a second continuously-output conditioned signal.

When the voltage value VIN of the input voltage signal is greater than the voltage threshold value VTH2 of the second voltage threshold signal, the third comparator B3 outputs the high voltage level signal (i.e., the third conduction signal), and the gate of the fifth switching tube Q5 receives the third conduction signal, such that the fifth switching tube Q5 is conducted. The drain of the fifth switching tube Q5 is configured to access the input voltage signal, and the source of the fifth switching tube Q5 is connected to the in-phase input terminal of the third proportional operational amplifier sub-circuit 232, such that the in-phase input terminal of the third proportional operational amplifier sub-circuit 232 receives the input voltage signal. The input voltage signal is amplified by the third proportional operational amplifier sub-circuit 232 based on a third preset proportion, such that the third proportional amplified voltage signal is transmitted to the in-phase input terminal of the second differential amplifier sub-circuit 234. The inverting input terminal of the second differential amplifier sub-circuit 234 is connected to the second continuously-output conditioning circuit 236, such that the inverting input terminal of the second differential amplifier sub-circuit 234 accesses the second continuously-output conditioning signal. The second continuously-output conditioning signal is differentially amplified by the second differential amplifier sub-circuit 234. In this way, the output terminal of the second differential amplifier sub-circuit 234 outputs the conditioned third proportional amplified voltage signal.

In the present disclosure, the voltage signal conditioning is optimized. The voltage signal is automatically segmented and conditioned. The circuit may be flexibly adapted for multi-segment voltage conditioning. The applicable sampling range of the voltage sampling conditioning is increased, and the sampling accuracy and universality is improved. By configuring the first continuously-output conditioning circuit 226 and the second continuously-output conditioning circuit 236, the voltage may be output continuously, the scenarios that voltage sampling conditioning can be applied may be increased, and universality and accuracy of sampling conditioning of the circuit may be improved.

In an example, as shown in FIG. 6, the first segment voltage conditioning sub-circuit 210 further includes a first voltage following sub-circuit 214. The second segment voltage conditioning sub-circuit 220 further includes a second voltage following sub-circuit 228. The third segmented voltage conditioning sub-circuit 230 further includes a third voltage following sub-circuit 238. An in-phase input terminal of the first voltage following sub-circuit 214 is connected to the output terminal of the first proportional amplifier sub-circuit 212. The in-phase input terminal of the second voltage following sub-circuit 228 is connected to the output terminal of the second differential amplifier sub-circuit 234. An in-phase input terminal of the second voltage following sub-circuit 228 is connected to the output terminal of the first differential amplifier sub-circuit 224. An in-phase input terminal of the third voltage following sub-circuit 238 is connected to the output terminal of the second differential amplifier sub-circuit 234.

Since the in-phase input terminal of the first voltage following sub-circuit 214 connected to the output terminal of the first proportional amplifier sub-circuit 212, the first voltage following sub-circuit 214 serves as a buffering isolation, such that the first proportional amplifier sub-circuit 212 and any circuit after the first proportional amplifier sub-circuit 212 do not affect each other, reliability of voltage signal conditioning may be improved. Since the in-phase input terminal of the second voltage following sub-circuit 228 is connected to the output terminal of the first differential amplifier sub-circuit 224, the second voltage following sub-circuit 228 serves as a buffering isolation, such that the first differential amplifier sub-circuit 224 and any circuit connected after the first differential amplifier sub-circuit 224 do not affect each other, and reliability of the voltage signal conditioning may be improved. Since the in-phase input terminal of the third voltage following sub-circuit 238 is connected to the output terminal of the second differential amplifier sub-circuit 234, the third voltage following sub-circuit 238 serves as a buffering isolation, such that the second differential amplifier sub-circuit 234 and any circuit connected after the second differential amplifier sub-circuit 234 do not affect each other, and reliability of voltage signal conditioning may be improved.

A second terminal of the sixth resistor R6 is connected to the ground. The inverting input terminal of the first differential amplifier sub-circuit 224 is connected between the second terminal of the fifth resistor R5 and the first terminal of the sixth resistor R6. A first terminal of the seventh resistor R7 is connected to the direct current power supply VCC. A second terminal of the seventh resistor R7 is connected to a first terminal of the eighth resistor R8. A second terminal of the eighth resistor R8 is connected to the ground. The inverting input terminal of the second differential amplifier sub-circuit 234 is connected between the second terminal of the seventh resistor R7 and the first terminal of the eighth resistor R8.

Due to the connection between the fifth resistor R5 and the sixth resistor R6, when a resistance value of the fifth resistor R5 is r5, a resistance value of the sixth resistor R6 is r6, and a voltage value of the direct current power supply VCC is vcc, a voltage conditioning value of the first continuously-output conditioning signal of the first continuously-output conditioning circuit 226 is

$V TH 3 = \frac{r 6}{(r 5 + r 6)} v cc .$

Due to the connection between the seventh resistor R7 and the eighth resistor R8, when a resistance value of the seventh resistor R7 is r7, a resistance value of the eighth resistor R8 is r8, and a voltage value of the direct current power supply VCC is vcc, a voltage conditioning value of the second continuously-output conditioning signal of the second continuously-output conditioning circuit 236 is:

$V TH 4 = \frac{8}{(r 7 + r 8)} v cc .$

Exemplarily, each of the fifth resistor R5 and the sixth resistor R6 may be an adjustable resistor; and each of the seventh resistor R7 and the eighth resistor R8 may be an adjustable resistor.

When r19=r20=r21=r22,

$V OUT = (1 + \frac{r 13}{r 14}) V IN - V TH 4.$

In order to allow the voltage to be output continuously, the VTH4 voltage is set to be

$V TH 4 = (1 + \frac{r 1 4}{r 1 3}) V IN - (1 + \frac{r 12}{r 1 1}) V IN = \frac{8}{r 7 + r 8} \times V CC,$

such that the output voltage is:
