Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the described embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0020] Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the application of an over-temperature automatic protection circuit of the present utility model to adapter charging. As Figure 1 shown, the adapter 2 is connected to the electronic device 4 through the C TO C data cable 3 for charging, and the over-temperature automatic protection circuit 1 is connected to the electronic device 4 and the C TO C data cable 3.

[0021] More specifically, the electronic device 4 includes a charging port 41, a power management chip 42, a main control chip 43, and a battery 44. Among them, the adapter 2 is connected to the charging port 41 through a C TO C data cable 3 to charge the electronic device 4; the main control chip 43 is connected to the power management chip 42, and the power management chip 42 is connected to the battery 44.

[0022] More specifically, the over-temperature automatic protection circuit 1 is connected to the charging port 41, detects the temperature T of the charging port 41 and outputs the resistance value R related to the temperature T to the main control chip 43; the main control chip 43 outputs a driving signal P1 to the over-temperature automatic protection circuit 1; the over-temperature automatic protection circuit 1 generates a signal CC1 and a signal CC2 to the C TO C data cable 3.

[0023] Optionally, the electronic device 4 is a mobile phone or a mobile power supply, etc.

[0024] Figure 2 It is a circuit schematic diagram of an over-temperature automatic protection circuit of the present invention. An over-temperature automatic protection circuit 1 of the present invention includes a thermistor R1. The thermistor R1 detects the temperature of the charging port 41 of the electronic device 4 and outputs the resistance value R related to the temperature T to the main control chip 43.

[0025] Optionally, the thermistor R1 is arranged near the charging port 41 of the electronic device 4.

[0026] In a specific embodiment, the thermistor R1 is an NTC resistor.

[0027] Furthermore, an over-temperature automatic protection circuit 1 of the present invention further includes a switch 11 and a switch 12. The first input terminal of the switch 11 is connected to the voltage Vcc through a resistor Rp1, the second input terminal of the switch 11 is grounded through a resistor Rd1, the output terminal of the switch 11 is connected to the signal CC1 of the C TO C data cable 3, and the control terminal of the switch 11 is connected to the driving signal P1; the first input terminal of the switch 12 is connected to the voltage Vcc through a resistor Rp2, the second input terminal of the switch 12 is grounded through a resistor Rd2, the output terminal of the switch 12 is connected to the signal CC2 of the C TO C data cable 3, and the control terminal of the switch 12 is connected to the driving signal P1.

[0028] Among them, the voltage Vcc plays a power supply role.

[0029] Next, continue to combine Figure 1 with Figure 2 to introduce the working principle of the present invention. Under normal circumstances, the signal CC1 is pulled down to the ground through the resistor Rd1, the signal CC2 is pulled down to the ground through the resistor Rd2, the adapter 2 charges the electronic device 4 through the C TO C data cable 3, and the power management chip 42 charges the battery 44 with the current maximum power.

[0030] When the charging port 41 is short-circuited due to reasons such as water ingress, dirt, foreign objects, etc., resulting in an abnormal increase in the temperature of the charging port 41, the thermistor R1 detects the temperature T of the charging port 41 and outputs a resistance value R related to the temperature. T to the main control chip 43, and the main control chip 43 determines the resistance value R. T is greater than the threshold value, it will output a drive signal P1 to control the switch 11 and the switch 12, so that the signal CC1 is pulled up to the voltage Vcc or presents a high impedance state through the resistor Rp1, and the signal CC2 is pulled up to the voltage Vcc or presents a high impedance state through the resistor Rp2. Through the PD protocol, the communication between the adapter 2 and the electronic device 4 is interrupted, and the power output to the electronic device 4 is stopped, avoiding damage to the device caused by the abnormal high temperature, so as to play a protective role.

[0031] When the abnormality is eliminated, the thermistor R1 detects the temperature T of the charging port 41 and outputs a resistance value R related to the temperature. T to the main control chip 43, and the main control chip 43 determines the resistance value R. T After it drops below the threshold value, it outputs a drive signal P1 to control the switch 11 and the switch 12, so that the signal CC1 is pulled down to the ground through the resistor Rd1, and the signal CC2 is pulled down to the ground through the resistor Rd2. The adapter 2 continues to charge the electronic device 4 through the CTO C data cable 3.

[0032] In a specific embodiment, an over-temperature automatic protection circuit 1 of the present utility model can also be arranged in the C TO C data cable 3.

Any person with ordinary knowledge in the technical field to which it belongs can make some changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the present utility model shall be subject to that defined by the appended patent application scope.
