Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a stable threshold level by connecting a Zener diode in series with the input terminal of a photocoupler and connecting a resistor in parallel with both elements in connection. CONSTITUTION:When a resistor whose resistance is (r) is connected to contact detection terminals 7a, 7b, a current flows to the resistor from a DC power supply 3. In this case, A potential difference is produced between points B, C with a voltage division by the resistor (r) and a parallel resistor 4b. The Zener voltage of the Zener diode 8 is selected smaller than the voltage between the points B, C by devising the circuit that a current flows to the input terminal of a photocoupler after the voltage is larger than the Zener voltage of a Zener diode 8 and the resistance (r) connected between the detection terminals 7a, 7b is desired to be detected with a closed contact. Thus a stable operation is obtained.

When the contact 2 to be detected is closed, the anode 1a of the photocoupler 1 is supplied to the anode 1a of the photocoupler 1 through the current-1 limiting resistor 4a by the direct 1 power supply 3 for detection.
A current flows between the cathode 1b and the cathode 1b. anode 1a,
A protection diode is inserted between the cathode 1b,
This prevents damage to the photocoupler when reverse voltage is applied. Inside the photocoupler 1, the current flowing between the anode Ia and the cathode 1b is multiplied and transmitted between the output side collector 1C and emitter 1d in an electrically insulated state. Then, a current flows between the pulled-up collector 1C and the grounded emitter 1d, and the potential at point A decreases. This change is compared with the potential vrer by the comparator 6 and W1 is eliminated, and the internal control circuit processes it as a contact "closed" signal.

When a resistor with a resistance value r is connected to the contact detection terminals 7a and 7b,
A current flows through the resistor due to the direct current source 3. In the conventional circuit shown in FIG. 2, the current flows directly to the input terminal of the photocoupler 1, so the threshold value for detecting contact closure depends on the N-current transfer ratio of the photocoupler 1. , in the circuit of FIG. 1 of the present invention, the resistor [
A potential difference is generated between 80 and 1r by the voltage division between 1r and parallel resistor 4b. Since current flows to the input terminal of the photocoupler only when this potential difference becomes larger than the Zener voltage value of the Zener diode 8, the detection terminal 7a,
If it is desired to detect the resistance value r connected to the terminal 7b as a "closed" contact, the Zener voltage value of the Zener diode 8 may be selected to be smaller than the potential difference between the terminals 80 and 80. On the contrary, the resistance i1r
If you do not want to detect the contact "closed", you can choose the Zener voltage value of the Zener diode 8 to be larger than the potential difference between 80 and 80. In this way, resistor 4b
According to the Zener voltage value of the Zener diode 8, the threshold value for contact "closed" detection can be lowered. If the photocoupler is designed with the minimum value of the current transfer ratio when this threshold value is exceeded, stable operation can be achieved because contact closure is reliably detected.
