Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ESD protection, and particularly relates to a USB type power protector. Background Technique
[0002] With the rapid development of electronic technology, integrated circuits (ICs) and electronic devices are becoming more and more popular and widely used in daily life. However, these electronic devices face a common threat during the processes of manufacturing, transportation, use and storage - electrostatic discharge (ESD). ESD is a transient and intense current discharge phenomenon, usually caused by the charge transfer between objects. The harm of ESD to electronic devices cannot be underestimated. First of all, the voltage pulse generated by ESD may far exceed the tolerance range of electronic components, resulting in component damage or performance degradation. Secondly, ESD will also generate heat inside the device, which may cause serious accidents such as fire or explosion. In addition, ESD will also have a long-term impact on the reliability and stability of the device, reducing its service life. In order to protect electronic devices from the damage of ESD and improve the reliability and stability of the devices, ESD protection technology has emerged as the times require.
[0003] The current ESD protection technology mainly focuses on power protection, and basically uses a daughter board or a module of the product itself as the protector. The current ESD protection technology has problems such as product abnormality when damaged, difficulty in generalization, single object, and inability to work directly on the USB interface.

The male socket input ground wire pin is connected; the 3rd pin of the TVS tube D2 is grounded, the 4th pin of the TVS tube D2 is connected to the positive data line pin of the USB male socket input, the 5th pin of the TVS tube D2 is connected to the negative data line pin of the USB male socket input, the 6th pin of the TVS tube D2 is connected to the negative data line pin of the USB female socket output, the 7th pin of the TVS tube D2 is connected to the positive data line pin of the USB female socket output, and the 8th pin of the TVS tube D2 is connected to the ground wire pin of the USB female socket output.
