[0001] This invention relates to the field of detection circuit technology, specifically a low-power, low-voltage detection circuit for MCUs. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of data control technology, MCUs have been widely used. An MCU is a complex system capable of providing different control effects for different occasions. To ensure the stable and reliable operation of the MCU system, its power supply voltage and port voltage must be maintained within a certain voltage range. If the voltage is too low, the MCU system will not work properly; if the voltage is too high, the MCU system is easily damaged. Most existing MCU systems use a resistor divider circuit to detect the power supply voltage and port voltage of the MCU system, and a comparator circuit performs voltage analysis. After the voltage detection is completed, the low voltage detection circuit will be shut down to reduce the loss of the detection circuit. However, this method cannot provide timely protection when the MCU system experiences a power supply abnormality, which poses a certain safety hazard and therefore needs to be improved. Summary of the Invention

It is used to copy the reference current through the current mirror circuit and transmit it to the power detection module and the detection control module. It is also used to control the working state of the current mirror circuit through the power transistor circuit.

[0007] The power detection module is connected to the power supply module and is used to receive the reference current and perform voltage detection on the port voltage of the MCU module, and to output a first voltage signal.

[0008] The switch control module is connected to the power detection module and the power supply module, and is used to receive the working voltage and transmit the first voltage signal to the intelligent control module and the status judgment module.

[0009] The detection and control module is connected to the power module and the MCU module. It is used to control the connection with the power module through a switch control circuit, to receive the reference current and to perform voltage detection on the operating voltage of the input MCU module, and to output a second voltage signal.

[0010] The MCU module is used to receive signals output by the power detection module, detection control module and status judgment module through the MCU circuit, to control the operation of the reference current module, sampling protection module and detection control module through the MCU circuit output control signals, and to output timing signals and control the periodic operation of the timing control module.

[0013] The timing control module is connected to the MCU module and the reference current module, and is used to receive the timing signal and control the reference current module to work periodically.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: The low-power low-voltage detection circuit for MCUs of the present invention uses a power detection module and a detection control module to detect the port voltage of the MCU module and the operating voltage input to the MCU module, respectively. The switch control module is triggered by the power supply module and controls the MCU module to receive the port voltage detection result. The sample-and-hold module holds the voltage signal detected by the detection control module and disconnects the detection of the operating voltage after the sample-and-hold module has completed the sampling and holding process, thereby reducing circuit loss. At the same time, the held signal is compared with the signal detected by the power detection module through the state judgment module for overvoltage and undervoltage judgment. Furthermore, the MCU circuit outputs a timing signal to control the reference current module to periodically provide a reference current, controlling the periodic voltage detection of the power detection module and the detection control module, thereby further reducing circuit loss without affecting voltage detection.
