Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of analog integrated circuits, and in particular relates to an overvoltage protection circuit and a power factor corrector used in a power factor corrector. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of integrated circuits, the chip area is getting smaller and smaller. The impact of power technology on the performance of the entire chip is becoming more and more important. In order to improve the efficiency of switching power supplies and reduce grid pollution, power factor correction technology has increasingly become a research hotspot in the field of power supply design. [0003] In the field of switching power converters, any circuit structure that makes the input grid current non-sinusoidal, or even a sine wave but different in phase with the sinusoidal input voltage, or makes the input current harmonic, will reduce the power factor and cause power loss.

Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, at present, there is no overvoltage protection for the power factor corrector in the power supply circuit using the power factor corrector. Therefore, when the power is turned on and the output voltage of the power factor corrector exceeds the rated , Welding and other problems, it is easy to cause damage to the electronic components inside the power supply. Therefore, when the output voltage of the power factor corrector exceeds the rated value, protecting the electronic components in the power supply circuit from being damaged is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently.
