The MCU 100 is used to detect the open-circuit detection pin OPEN_DET when the load 200 is open-circuit. When both the first output terminal 301 and the second output terminal 302 output a low level, the load 200 is determined to be working normally. When the open-circuit detection pin OPEN_DET detects a high level output from the first output terminal 301 and a low level output from the second output terminal 302, the load 200 is determined to be open-circuited. When the open-circuit detection pin OPEN_DET detects a low level output from the first output terminal 301 and a high level output from the second output terminal 302, the load 200 is determined to be short-circuited.

[0037] The embodiments provided in this application do not require manual detection. By detecting the level output of the first output terminal 301 through the open-circuit detection pin OPEN_DET of the MCU100, it can be determined whether the load 200 is short-circuited; by detecting the level output of the second output terminal 302 through the short-circuit detection pin SHORT_DET of the MCU100, it can be determined whether the load 200 is open-circuited. By using the MCU100 to detect the level of the load 200, the open-circuit and open-circuit abnormal states of the load 200 can be quickly determined, improving the efficiency of open-circuit and open-circuit detection of the load 200.

[0062] The working principle of this application is as follows:

[0063] In application, based on general application specifications, the circuit of this application meets the following conditions:

[0064] The supply voltage of the first power supply terminal VCC is equal to or greater than the supply voltage of the first power supply terminal VCC; the resistance values ​​of the fourth resistor R4 and the fifth resistor R5 are both a few ohms; the second transistor Q2 and the third transistor Q3 are PNP transistors of the same type.

[0065] like Figure 3 As shown, when load 200 is connected and working normally:

[0066] 1. The supply voltage at point A, pulled up by the first resistor R1 to the first power supply terminal VCC, is at a high level;

[0067] 2. Because point A is at a high level, MOSFET M1 is turned on, and point B is at a low level;

[0068] 3. Because point B is at a low level and MOSFET M1 is turned on, the level at point C is the supply voltage of the first power supply terminal VCC;

[0069] 4. Because there is a load of 200, the current flowing through the fourth resistor R4 is greater than the current flowing through the fifth resistor R5, and the voltage at point K is higher than the voltage at point M. Also, because the second transistor Q2 and the third transistor Q3 are the same type of PNP transistor with the same VCE parameter, the third transistor Q3 is not conducting.

[0070] 5. Because the third transistor Q3 is not conducting, point F is pulled down by the sixth resistor R6, and is at a low level;

[0071] 6. Because point F is at a low level, point J is pulled low by the second diode D2, and point J is at a low level.

[0072] 7. Because point B is at a low level, point H is pulled low by the first diode D1, so point H is at a low level.

[0073] When the load is 200 open circuit:

[0074] 1. The supply voltage at point A, pulled up by the first resistor R1 to the first power supply terminal VCC, is at a high level;

[0075] 2. Because point A is high, the first transistor Q1 is turned on, and point B is low;

[0076] 3. Because point B is low, MOSFET M1 is turned on, and the voltage level at point C is the supply voltage of the first power supply terminal VCC;

[0077] 4. Since there is no load of 200, the current flowing through the fourth resistor R4 is approximately the same as the current flowing through the fifth resistor R5. The voltage at point K and the voltage at point M are approximately the same, which is approximately the supply voltage of the first power supply terminal VCC. Furthermore, since the second transistor Q2 and the third transistor Q3 are the same type of PNP transistor with the same VCE parameter, the third transistor Q3 is conducting.

[0078] 5. Because the third transistor Q3 is turned on, the voltage level at point F is equal to the voltage level at point M, both of which are approximately the supply voltage of the first power supply terminal VCC;

[0079] 6. Because the voltage level at point F is approximately the supply voltage of the first power supply terminal VCC, point J is pulled up to the supply voltage of the third power supply terminal VDD_IO by the seventh resistor R7, so point J is at a high level.

[0080] 7. Because point B is at a low level, point H is pulled low by the first diode D1, so point H is at a low level.

[0081] When load 200 is short-circuited:

[0082] 1. Because the load 200 is short-circuited, the voltage at point N is 0V;

[0083] 2. Point A is subjected to voltage division by the first resistor R1 and the second resistor R2. Point A must meet the low-level requirement.

[0084] 3. Because point A is at a low level, the first transistor Q1 is not conducting, and point B is floating;

[0085] 4. Because point B is floating, MOSFET M1 is not conducting, and point C is pulled down to GND by the fourth resistor R4, so the voltage level at point C is GND.

[0086] 5. Because the load 200 is short-circuited, the current flowing through the fourth resistor R4 is greater than the current flowing through the fifth resistor R5, and the voltage at point K is higher than the voltage at point M. Also, because the second transistor Q2 and the third transistor Q3 are the same type of PNP transistor with the same VCE parameter, the third transistor Q3 is not conducting.

[0087] 6. Because the third transistor Q3 is not conducting, point F is pulled down by the sixth resistor R6, and is at a low level;

[0088] 7. Because point F is at a low level, point J is pulled low by the second diode D2, so point J is at a low level.

[0089] 8. Because point B is floating, point H is pulled up by R3 to the first power supply terminal VCC, so point H is high.

[0090] Furthermore, embodiments of the present invention provide a control method for an open / short circuit detection circuit, applied to the open / short circuit detection circuit described in any of the above embodiments, the method comprising the following steps:

[0091] In step S100, MCU100 detects the level output by the first output terminal 301 through the short-circuit detection pin SHORT_DET, and detects the level output by the second output terminal 302 through the open-circuit detection pin OPEN_DET.

[0092] Step S200: When a high level is detected by the short-circuit detection pin SHORT_DET at the output of the first output terminal 301, the load 200 is determined to be short-circuited; when a high level is detected by the open-circuit detection pin OPEN_DET at the output of the second output terminal 302, the load 200 is determined to be open-circuited.

[0093] Corresponding to the circuit embodiment described above, in this embodiment, the detection circuit 300 is configured to output a low level through the first output terminal 301 and a low level through the second output terminal 302 when the load 200 is normal; output a high level through the first output terminal 301 and a low level through the second output terminal 302 when the load 200 is open-circuited; and output a high level through both the first output terminal 301 and the second output terminal 302 when the load 200 is short-circuited. The MCU 100 is configured to detect the open-circuit detection pin OPEN_DET when the load 200 is open-circuited. When the first output terminal 301 outputs a low level and the second output terminal 302 outputs a low level, the load 200 is determined to be working normally; when the open-circuit detection pin OPEN_DET detects a high level output from the first output terminal 301 and a low level output from the second output terminal 302, the load 200 is determined to be open-circuited; when the open-circuit detection pin OPEN_DET detects a low level output from the first output terminal 301 and a high level output from the second output terminal 302, the load 200 is determined to be short-circuited.

[0094] The embodiments provided in this application do not require manual detection. By detecting the level output of the first output terminal 301 through the open-circuit detection pin OPEN_DET of the MCU100, it can be determined whether the load 200 is short-circuited; by detecting the level output of the second output terminal 302 through the short-circuit detection pin SHORT_DET of the MCU100, it can be determined whether the load 200 is open-circuited. By using the MCU100 to detect the level of the load 200, the open-circuit and open-circuit abnormal states of the load 200 can be quickly determined, improving the efficiency of open-circuit and open-circuit detection of the load 200.
