[0029] At present, there are more and more products with lithium batteries on the market, such as various lamps or fans or power bank products equipped with USB output charging function. However, these products equipped with lithium batteries have high power consumption in the USB output circuit during standby, so that when users need to use products with lithium batteries, the lithium batteries have already been exhausted and cannot be used normally, and even make the products with lithium batteries unable to charge normally, which greatly affects the user experience. Therefore, it is urgent to design a USB output charging circuit with low power consumption to obtain a longer standby time, thereby improving the user experience.
[0030] The embodiment of the utility model provides a low-power USB output charging circuit, which can obtain a longer standby time, thereby improving the user experience.
[0031] The following is a further description of the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0032] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 The utility model provides a low-power USB output charging circuit, including: a switch module 100, an MCU, an output control module 200, a DC power input terminal B+, a USB charging output port 400 and a boost management module 300;
[0033] The switch module 100 includes a transistor Q1, and the emitter of the transistor Q1 is grounded;
[0034] The output terminal PWR_ON of the MCU is electrically connected to the base of the transistor Q1;
[0035] The output control module 200 includes a first PMOS transistor Q2 and a second PMOS transistor Q3, and the gate of the first PMOS transistor Q2 and the gate of the second PMOS transistor Q3 are both electrically connected to the collector of the transistor Q1;
[0036] The DC power input terminal B+ is electrically connected to the MCU, the source of the first PMOS tube Q2, and the source of the second PMOS tube Q3 respectively;
[0037] The USB charging output port 400 is used for output charging;
[0038] The boost management module 300 is electrically connected to the output control module 200 and the USB charging output port 400 respectively;
[0039] When the switch module 100 is in working state, the switch module 100 controls the output control module 200 to work; when the switch module 100 stops working, the switch module 100 controls the output control module 200 to stop working.
[0040] According to a low-power USB output charging circuit provided by an embodiment of the utility model, when the output terminal PWR_ON of the MCU outputs a high level, the transistor Q1 in the switch module 100 is turned on, the gate of the first PMOS tube Q2 and the gate of the second PMOS tube Q3 in the output control module 200 are electrically connected to the ground terminal through the transistor Q1, the gate level of the first PMOS tube Q2 and the gate level of the second PMOS tube Q3 are pulled down, the first PMOS tube Q2 and the second PMOS tube Q3 are turned on, and the current is output from the DC power input terminal B+, flows through the first PMOS tube Q2 and the second PMOS tube Q3 to provide the boost management module 300 with a current. The power supply enables the boost management module 300 to provide the target voltage and current to the USB charging output port 400 for charging output. The boost management module 300 is controlled to work and stop working by controlling the on and off of the first PMOS tube Q2 and the second PMOS tube Q3 in the output control module 200. The design of the output control module 200 avoids the direct current power input terminal B+ directly supplying power to the boost management module 300, and realizes that when the lithium battery is powered, the output control module 200 is controlled to disconnect the power supplied to the boost management module 300, so that the boost management module 300 stops working, which can effectively reduce power consumption, obtain a longer standby time, and thus improve the user experience.
[0041] It should be noted that before the switch module 100 is turned on, the gate of the first PMOS tube Q2 and the gate of the second PMOS tube Q3 in the output control module 200 are electrically connected to the DC power supply input terminal B+, and the levels of the gate of the first PMOS tube Q2 and the gate of the second PMOS tube Q3 are both high.
[0042] It should be noted that the DC power input terminal B+ is electrically connected to the lithium battery.
[0043] In some embodiments, a startup module is also included. The startup module is electrically connected to the MCU. When the startup module is working, the startup module controls the MCU to work.
[0044] Preferably, the starting module may be a touch switch.
[0045] It should be noted that the MCU is electrically connected to the DC power input terminal B+, and a resistor is provided inside the MCU to detect the voltage of the lithium battery.
[0046] It should be noted that when the startup module is turned on, that is, the touch switch is pressed, the MCU is in standby mode. At the same time, the output terminal PWR_ON of the MCU outputs a high level, so that the switch module 100 works, and then the output control module 200 provides power to the boost management module 300.
[0047] Furthermore, if the MCU detects that the power voltage at the DC power input terminal B+ reaches a preset voltage, the MCU stops all outputs and enters a sleep state to protect the lithium battery from over-discharge. The transistor Q1 in the switch module 100 is cut off, and the first PMOS tube Q2 and the second PMOS tube Q3 in the output control module 200 are both cut off, and power is stopped from being provided to the boost management module 300. The boost management module 300 stops working, and the USB charging output port 400 has no output.
[0048] Preferably, the preset voltage may be 3V.
[0049] It should be noted that when the startup module is turned off, the MCU is in a dormant state, so that the switch module 100 stops working, and the output control module 200 further disconnects the power supply to the boost management module 300 .
[0050] It is understandable that when the MCU is in a dormant state, the startup module needs to be triggered to activate the MCU so that the MCU enters a standby state.

The charging IC module U1 is electrically connected to the other end of the inductor L1 and one end of the second capacitor C2, respectively. The other end of the second capacitor C2 and the other end of the first capacitor C1 are both grounded.
[0056] Preferably, the capacitance of the first capacitor C1 is 10uf, the capacitance of the second capacitor C2 is 10uF, and the inductance of the first inductor L1 is 2.2uH.
[0057] Reference Figure 2 In some embodiments, the boost management module 300 further includes a fourth resistor R4 and a third capacitor C3, and both the fourth resistor R4 and the third capacitor C3 are connected in parallel with the first capacitor C1.
[0058] Preferably, the resistance of the fourth resistor R4 is 1k, and the capacitance of the third capacitor C3 is 10uF.
[0059] It should be noted that by connecting a suitable first capacitor C1, a second capacitor C2, a fourth resistor R4, a third capacitor C3 and an inductor L1 to the charging IC module U1, a charging voltage and current of 5V / 2A can be stably output to the USB charging output port 400.

[0064] Reference Figure 2 In some embodiments, the capacitances of the first capacitor C1, the second capacitor C2, the third capacitor C3, the fourth capacitor C4, the fifth capacitor C5 and the sixth capacitor C6 are all equal.
