The wafer 325 is voltage-converted, and the power transformer 352 generates a DC power supply (Vin) required for the network control chip 180 via the buffer 330. The optical coupler 354 can generate a control signal adjustment exchange according to a change of the DC power supply (Vin). The modulated network signal (S3) generated by the network control chip 180 utilizes the signal coupler 356 to generate a corresponding inductively modulated network signal (S3') and outputs the power outlet 106 via the lightning strike protector 350. . In order for the board to comply with the safety specifications, the primary side region 162 and the secondary side region 164 must be separated by a safe distance (D) to comply with the safety specifications. For example, this safety distance must be at least greater than 3 mm, for example 5 mm. Please refer to FIG. 3B and FIG. 3C, which are schematic diagrams showing the configuration of the circuit board of the power line network device and related components. As shown in the third B-picture, the size of the circuit board is 44 mm x 60 mm, and the circuit board is divided into a primary side region 162 and a secondary side region 164, and there is no layout line between the primary side region 162 and the secondary side region 164. Electrical connection. The primary side region 162 is separated from the secondary side region 164 by a safe distance (D). As shown in Figure C, the relevant components of the power line network device are placed on the circuit board. The primary side area 162 has a pair of power receiving ends (+, -) connected to a power outlet (not shown). Further, the lightning strike protector 305, the common mode choke coil 310, the bridge rectifier 315, the high voltage capacitor 320, the exchange wafer 325, and the buffer 330 are provided in the primary side region 162. The network control chip 180, the Ethernet signal coupling element 190, and the network connector 195 are disposed in the secondary side region 164. The Y-type capacitor 350, the power supply 201218660 TW8341PAMY-A1, and the signal surface combining unit 356 span the primary side region 162 and the secondary side region 164. As can be seen from the third C-picture, the network connector 195 is located in the secondary side region 164. And the secondary side region 164 does not have any dangerous voltage. Therefore, when the circuit board is covered by the insulating case, even if the user touches the conductive material (metal) in the network connector 195, no damage is caused. Furthermore, in order to effectively reduce the area of the board, another method is implemented by using a non-isolated AC-DC power converter (ncm_is() lated AC-DC power converter). Non-isolated AC/DC power conversion circuits reduce the use of vehicle components. Basically, the non-isolated AC power conversion circuit does not isolate the input of the South voltage and the low-voltage wheel output, which may damage the user's personal safety. In order to prevent injury to the user, the present invention also has a primary side area and a secondary side area on the circuit board area. The primary side region includes both the voltage (dangerous voltage) and the low voltage, while the secondary side region includes only the low voltage. In other words, 'the circuit layout of the circuit board in the power line network device 160 separates the power conversion circuit 170 and the network control chip 18 from the primary side area of the circuit board, and the network connector 195 is designed on the circuit board. The secondary side area. Instead of a direct electrical connection between the primary side area and the secondary side area, the Ethernet signal coupling element 19 is used as a signal transmission between the primary side area and the secondary side area of the board. Please refer to FIG. 4A, which is a schematic diagram of a power line network device completed by using a non-isolated AC/DC power conversion circuit. Basically, the power line network device 160 is designed on a single circuit board and distinguishes the primary side region 450 from the secondary side region 455 on the circuit board. Complete electrical isolation between the primary side region 450 and the secondary side region 455 on the surface of the circuit board 201218660 i w〇jHir/\iv1Y-Al. That is to say, no layout trace is connected between the primary side region 450 and the secondary side region 455. Furthermore, only the Ethernet signal coupling elements are used between the primary side region 450 and the secondary side region 455 to achieve signal transmission. The Ethernet nickname 190 can be a transformer (signai transf〇rmer). As shown in Fig. 4A, the power conversion circuit 17 and the network control chip 180 are all designed on the primary side region 45 of the circuit board. In the power conversion circuit 170, a lightning strike protector 405, a common mode choke coil 410, a bridge rectifier 415, a high voltage capacitor 420, a switching chip 425, and a buffer are connected between the power plug 1〇6 and the network control chip 18〇. 430, and inductor 435. Basically, the common mode choke coil 410 is used to eliminate the common mode electromagnetic interference signal on the line, and the bridge rectifier 415 and the high voltage capacitor 42 are used for AC/DC voltage conversion and voltage stabilization. The switching chip 425 is voltage-converted to provide a DC power supply (Vin) required for the network control chip 180 via the buffer 430 and the inductor 435. The modulation network (S3) generated by the network control chip 18 is output to the power socket 1〇6 via the lightning strike protector 450. Similarly, in order for the board to conform to the safety specifications, the primary side region 450 and the secondary side region 455 must be separated by a safe distance (D) to comply with the safety specifications. Please refer to the fourth and fourth C diagrams, which are schematic diagrams showing the configuration of the circuit board and related components of the power line network device. As shown in the fourth diagram, the size of the circuit board is 33 mm x 55 mm, and the circuit board is divided into a primary side region 450 and a secondary side region 455. There is no layout line between the primary side region 450 and the secondary side region 455. Electrical connection. The primary side 201218660 TW834IPAMY-A1 area 450 is separated from the secondary side area 455 by a safe distance (D). As shown in the fourth C diagram, the relevant components of the power line network device are placed on the schematic of the circuit board. The power conversion circuit of the primary side region 450 has a pair of power receiving ends (+, _) connected to a power outlet (not shown). Furthermore, the lightning strike protector 405, the common mode choke coil 410, the bridge rectifier 415, the high voltage capacitor 420, the switching die 425, the buffer 430, the inductor 435, and the network control chip 18 in the power conversion circuit 170 Both are disposed in the primary side region 450. Only the network connector 195 is disposed in the secondary side region 455. The Ethernet signal coupling component 190 then spans the primary side region 450 and the secondary side region 455. As can be seen from the fourth c-figure, since the network connector 195 is located in the secondary side region 455, the secondary side region 455 does not have any dangerous voltage. Therefore, when the circuit board is covered by the insulating case, even if the user touches the conductive material (metal) in the network connector 195, it does not cause any damage. Furthermore, please refer to the fifth figure, which is shown as a circuit diagram of the network element. The signal end point of the first side is to = D TD-, RD+, RXMs ; end; the signal end point of the second side includes at least τ χ -, TX +, RX +, RX_ signal end. However, in addition to the above signal terminals, other signal terminals, such as CT signal terminals, may be included. Furthermore, the signal end point of the first side can be connected to the primary side region 450 and the second side number = can be connected to the secondary side region 455; or the signal of the second side is connected to the primary side region 450 and One side signal endpoint can be connected to side region 455. It is reported that the signal end of the '-sub-side region 450 and the signal terminal of the secondary side region 55 are converted by a signal transformer with each other, and the phase 12 201218660 I W8341PAMY-A1 is in contact with each other, so that it can be used as an effective coupling element. . At the same time, it is also possible to prevent the dangerous voltage of the primary side region 450 from being transmitted to the secondary side region 455, posing a hazard to the user. Furthermore, in order for the Ethernet signal coupling unit 190 to comply with the safety specifications, the Ethernet signal coupling unit 190 needs to be specially designed. For example, the signal line of the Ethernet signal coupling unit 190 in the fifth figure is isolated in the A area or the B area. In order to comply with the safety regulations. All signal lines in the A area of the Ethernet signal coupling unit 190 can be realized by an enameled wire, and all signal lines of the B area are realized by three layers of insulated wires. Alternatively, all signal lines of the B area in the Ethernet signal coupling unit 190 can be realized by an enameled wire, and all signal lines of the A area are realized by three layers of insulated wires. In this way, it is possible to effectively achieve the purpose of isolating dangerous voltages. Therefore, the advantage of the present invention is that the non-isolated AC/DC power conversion circuit is designed for the power line network device, and the high voltage is isolated from the secondary side region of the circuit board by using a minimum coupling element (the Ethernet signal coupling unit). In addition, in addition to preventing the user from being harmed, the size of the circuit board can be reduced to reduce the size of the power line network device. At the same time, since the present invention utilizes a network control chip having a high-speed broadband of 10 Mbps or more, the use of a high-speed power line network device can be achieved. In the above, the present invention has been disclosed in the above preferred embodiments, but it is not intended to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Therefore, the scope of the invention is defined by the scope of the appended claims. 13 201218660
