Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of energy storage power supplies, and in particular to a power supply reverse polarity protection circuit and an energy storage power supply. Background Art

[0002] DC power supplies or batteries have positive and negative polarities. When a device interface is plugged into a reverse polarity power supply, the electrical device will be damaged. To ensure the safety of electrical devices, an anti-reverse connection function is usually added to the interface. There are usually two ways to prevent reverse connection of devices. One is to add an anti-reverse connection measure to the interface socket, and the other is to add an anti-reverse connection function through the internal circuit of the interface, for example, the patent application with application number CN115833077A, to protect the safety of electrical devices.

[0003] However, common DC power-consuming devices generally add a reverse diode at the input interface to clamp the voltage, or use a switch circuit composed of MOS for protection. The use of a diode solution will increase the power consumption of the circuit and the diode will generate high heat. Although the use of a switch circuit composed of MOS can solve the shortcomings of the diode solution, the protection voltage is limited by the MOS withstand voltage, and the MOS will heat up when the current is large, which will also cause circuit loss.
