Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of power adapters, in particular to a protection circuit for a power adapter. Background Art

[0002] A power adapter, also known as a power converter or power supply, is a small electronic device that is mainly used to convert alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC) to meet the usage requirements of electronic devices. Power adapters in the prior art generally adopt a switching power supply method, which maintains a stable output voltage by controlling the time ratio of the switch tube to be turned on and off, and detects the output voltage and determines overvoltage. When overvoltage occurs, power-off protection is performed. However, when the power adapter is multi-channel power supply, since the switching power supply only samples the output voltage of one output branch, when the electronic device connected to the output branch is overvoltage, the power adapter as a whole will be powered off. This will cause the remaining output branches to be unable to perform power supply control normally, reducing the power supply efficiency of the power adapter, and therefore needs to be improved.

At this time, when the first sampling signal sampled by the thirteenth resistor R13 and the fifteenth resistor R15 is greater than the second overvoltage threshold set by the eighth resistor R8 and the fourth diode D4, the first logic chip J1 will cooperate with the fifth diode D5 and the sixth diode D6 to perform high-level self-locking and output the second control signal, indicating that the first output module 2 is partially faulty at this time, which may be due to the electronic device connected to the first output port being faulty. Due to capacitor leakage, the second control signal will control the first switch tube V1 and the second thyristor S2 to be turned on, the second power tube Q2 and the first thyristor S1 to be turned off, and the first output module 2 to perform power-off protection. Since the voltage of the electric energy output by the second output module 3 is fixed, the first operational amplifier OP1 cooperates with the sixth resistor R6, the seventh resistor R7, the ninth resistor R9 and the tenth resistor R10 to subtract the electric energy output by the second output module 3 from the voltage threshold set by the voltage threshold device, and transmits the result to the feedback module 8 through the second thyristor S2, thereby maintaining the feedback module 8 to provide a feedback signal to the switch driver and maintain the power supply state of the second output module 3.
