The present disclosure relates to an
overvoltage protection circuit of a power device and an
overvoltage protection method based thereon, the circuit comprising: a first
voltage acquisition unit, a second
voltage acquisition unit, a first comparison unit, a second comparison unit and a
control unit; the first
voltage acquisition unit is used for acquiring the voltage value of a first node; the second voltage acquisition unit is used for acquiring the voltage value of a second node; the first comparison unit is used for outputting a first
signal according to the comparison result of the voltage value of the first node and a first reference voltage value; the second comparison unit is used for outputting a second
signal according to the comparison result of the voltage value of the second node and a second reference voltage value; and the
control unit is used for adjusting an output
signal according to the first signal and the second signal to achieve
overvoltage protection of the power device. The present disclosure can achieve overvoltage protection of the power device without relying on the
breakdown voltage value of the TVS tube, improve the accuracy of overvoltage protection of the power device, and improve the safety and stability of the
electric drive system.
