[0035] As described in the background technology, in the prior art, most electronic devices usually have built-in lithium batteries. When the electronic device is connected to an external power source through a power supply port, it is necessary to realize that the external power source supplies power through the power supply port while charging the lithium battery. During the power switching process, the power supply may be reversely connected, generating a reverse voltage, causing damage to the semiconductor devices and lithium batteries in the circuit.

[0036] In view of this, the present application proposes a power supply switching circuit, which uses reverse voltage to damage the field effect transistor and the power supply battery, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the circuit.

[0037] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments of the present invention, a power supply switching circuit includes: a load port 100, a power supply battery 200, a field effect transistor Q1, an anti-reverse connection circuit 300, a switching control circuit 400 and a power supply port 500.

[0038] The power supply battery 200 is electrically connected to the drain of the field effect transistor Q1. The power supply battery 200 serves as a built-in power supply of the electronic device and can provide power to the electronic device when the external power supply is disconnected.

[0039] The source of the field effect transistor Q1 is electrically connected to the load port 100, and the drain of the field effect transistor Q1 is electrically connected to the power supply battery 200 to realize power supply by the power supply battery 200. The gate of the field effect transistor Q1 is electrically connected to the input end of the anti-reverse connection circuit 300, and the gate of the field effect transistor Q1 is also electrically connected to the output end of the switching control circuit 400 to realize power supply switching between the power supply port 500 and the power supply port 500.

[0040] In one embodiment, the field effect transistor Q1 is a P-type field effect transistor Q1.

[0041] The input end of the anti-reverse connection circuit 300 is electrically connected to the gate of the field effect transistor Q1, and the output end of the anti-reverse connection circuit 300 is electrically connected to the source of the field effect transistor Q1. The anti-reverse connection circuit 300 is connected in series at both ends of the field effect transistor Q1 to prevent the field effect transistor Q1 from being damaged by reverse voltage during the power switching process.

[0042] The power supply port 500 is electrically connected to an external power source, and the power supply port 500 can provide power to the electronic device.

[0043] In one embodiment, the power supply port 500 is a USB power supply interface.

[0044] The input end of the anti-reverse connection circuit 300 is electrically connected to the power supply port 500 , and the output end of the anti-reverse connection circuit 300 is electrically connected to the load port 100 , so that an external power source can provide power to the electronic device through the power supply port 500 .

[0045] The input end of the switching control circuit 400 is electrically connected to the power supply port 500. The output end of the switching control circuit 400 is electrically connected to the gate of the field effect transistor Q1. The switching control circuit 400 can detect the port power supply parameters of the power supply port 500 to detect the connection state of the power supply port 500, thereby controlling the on and off of the field effect transistor Q1 according to the port power supply parameters.

[0046] Exemplarily, when the external power supply is connected to the power supply port 500, the switching control circuit 400 detects the power supply port 500 and obtains the port power supply parameters. When it is confirmed through the port power supply parameters that the power supply port 500 is in a connected state, the switching control circuit 400 outputs a cut-off signal to the field effect transistor Q1 to control the field effect transistor Q1 to be cut off, so that the power supply battery 200 does not supply power to the load port 100 through the field effect transistor Q1, and the external power supply supplies power to the load port 100 through the power supply port 500 and the anti-reverse connection circuit 300.

[0047] Exemplarily, when the external power supply is not connected to the power supply port 500, the switching control circuit 400 detects the power supply port 500 and obtains the port power supply parameters. When it is confirmed through the port power supply parameters that the power supply port 500 is in a disconnected state, the switching control circuit 400 outputs a conduction signal to the field effect transistor Q1 to control the field effect transistor Q1 to be turned on, and the power supply battery 200 supplies power to the load port 100 through the field effect transistor Q1, and the anti-reverse connection circuit 300 does not supply power to the load port 100.

[0048] In the scheme of the present application, the port power supply parameters of the power supply port 500 are detected by the switching control circuit 400 to detect the connection status of the power supply port 500. The on and off of the field effect transistor Q1 are controlled by the port power supply parameters. The field effect transistor Q1 outputs a control signal according to the switching control circuit 400, thereby realizing the power supply switching between the power supply port 500 and the power supply battery 200. In addition, by connecting the anti-reverse connection circuit 300 in series at both ends of the field effect transistor Q1, when the power supply is reversed, the field effect transistor Q1 is prevented from being damaged by the reverse voltage during the power switching process. In addition, the reverse voltage damage of the power supply battery 200 can be prevented, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the circuit system and ensuring the safe use of electronic equipment.

[0049] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments of the present invention, the reverse connection protection circuit 300 includes: a reverse connection protection diode D1 and a pull-down resistor R1.

[0050] The anode of the anti-reverse diode D1 is electrically connected to the power supply port 500 , and the cathode of the anti-reverse diode D1 is electrically connected to the load port 100 , so that when an external power source is connected to the power supply port 500 , power is supplied to the load port 100 .

[0051] The anode of the anti-reverse diode D1 is electrically connected to the gate of the field effect transistor Q1, and the cathode of the anti-reverse diode D1 is electrically connected to the source of the field effect transistor Q1. The anti-reverse diode D1 is connected in series at both ends of the field effect transistor Q1 to prevent the field effect transistor Q1 from being damaged by reverse voltage during the power switching process.

[0052] The anti-reverse diode D1 may be a single diode or a diode group. The present application does not limit the number of the anti-reverse diodes D1.

[0053] In one embodiment, the anti-reverse diode D1 is a 1N4148WS diode.

[0054] One end of the pull-down resistor R1 is electrically connected to the gate of the field effect transistor Q1, and the other end of the pull-down resistor R1 is connected to the ground. When the power supply battery 200 supplies power, the field effect transistor Q1 is turned on, and the pull-down resistor R1 steadily pulls down the gate potential to ensure that the field effect transistor Q1 is turned on normally and prevent hidden dangers caused by high gate impedance.

[0055] In the solution of the present application, the anti-reverse connection circuit 300 can not only prevent the field effect transistor Q1 from being damaged by reverse voltage during power switching, but also supply power to the load port 100 when an external power source is connected to the power supply port 500 to achieve power supply.

[0058] The port detection circuit 410 can detect the port power supply parameters and output them to the control circuit 420. The control circuit 420 can receive the port power supply parameters and control the on and off of the field effect transistor Q1 according to the port power supply parameters.

When the control circuit 420 confirms that the power supply port 500 is in a connected state through the port power supply parameters, the control circuit 420 outputs a cut-off signal to the field effect transistor Q1 to control the field effect transistor Q1 to be cut off. Then, the power supply battery 200 does not supply power to the load port 100 through the field effect transistor Q1, and the external power supply supplies power to the load port 100 through the power supply port 500 and the anti-reverse connection circuit 300.

[0060] Exemplarily, when the external power supply is not connected to the power supply port 500, the port detection circuit 410 detects the power supply port 500 and obtains the port power supply parameters. When the control circuit 420 confirms that the power supply port 500 is in a disconnected state through the port power supply parameters, the control circuit 420 outputs a conduction signal to the field effect transistor Q1 to control the conduction of the field effect transistor Q1. The power supply battery 200 supplies power to the load port 100 through the field effect transistor Q1, and the anti-reverse connection circuit 300 does not supply power to the load port 100.

The on and off of the field effect transistor Q1 is controlled by the port power supply parameters, thereby realizing the power supply switching between the power supply battery 200 and the power supply port 500.

[0064] Exemplarily, when an external power supply is connected to the power supply port 500, the port voltage detection circuit detects the power supply port 500 and obtains the power supply voltage of the power supply port 500 to obtain the port power supply parameters. When the control circuit 420 confirms that the power supply port 500 is in a connected state through the power supply voltage of the power supply port 500, the control circuit 420 outputs a cut-off signal to the field effect transistor Q1 to control the field effect transistor Q1 to be cut off, so that the power supply battery 200 does not supply power to the load port 100 through the field effect transistor Q1, and the external power supply supplies power to the load port 100 through the power supply port 500 and the anti-reverse connection circuit 300.

[0065] Exemplarily, when the external power supply is not connected to the power supply port 500, the port voltage detection circuit detects the power supply port 500 and obtains the power supply voltage of the power supply port 500 to obtain the port power supply parameters. When the power supply voltage of the power supply port 500 is zero, the control circuit 420 confirms that the power supply port 500 is in a disconnected state, and the control circuit 420 outputs a conduction signal to the field effect transistor Q1 to control the conduction of the field effect transistor Q1. The power supply battery 200 supplies power to the load port 100 through the field effect transistor Q1, and the anti-reverse connection circuit 300 does not supply power to the load port 100.
