[0002] In DC-powered electronic products, some products are designed with two power supply methods: external power supply and battery power supply.

[0017] The following further describes the present utility model in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0018] Embodiment

[0019] As Figure 1-2 shown, a dual - DC power supply switching circuit disclosed by the present utility model includes an external power supply (denoted as V_IN in the figure), a battery (denoted as V_BAT in the figure), a control unit, and a load switch. The external power supply is a DC power supply unit, and the load switch is used to control the power - on and power - off of the load. One end of the external power supply is connected to one end of the control unit, one end of the battery is connected to the other end of the control unit, and the end of the control unit not connected to the external power supply and the battery is connected to the load. A load switch is provided between the control unit and the load. The control unit includes a load switch S1, a PMOS transistor Q1, a PMOS transistor Q2, an NMOS transistor Q3, a dummy load R1, a resistor R2, a resistor R3, and a resistor R4. The PMOS transistors Q1, Q2, and the NMOS transistor Q3 all include an S - pole, a G - pole, and a D - pole;

[0020] The battery has three output terminals. A PMOS transistor Q2, a resistor R3, and a resistor R4 are connected in series in sequence to the first output terminal of the battery. A resistor R2 and an NMOS transistor Q3 are connected in series in sequence to the second output terminal of the battery. The terminal of the NMOS transistor Q3 at the second output terminal of the battery is grounded. A PMOS transistor Q1, a load switch S1, and a dummy load R1 are connected in series to the third output terminal of the battery. The terminal of the dummy load R1 at the third output terminal of the battery is grounded.

[0021] One end of the resistor R4 away from the resistor R3 is connected between the grounded terminal of the second output terminal line and the NMOS transistor Q3.

[0022] A diode D1 for restricting the current direction is provided on the line between the G pole of the PMOS transistor Q1 and the load switch S1.

[0023] A load capacitor C1 for buffering and voltage regulation is provided on the line extending between the load switch S1 and the dummy load R1. The load capacitor C1 is connected in parallel with the dummy load R1. When the load switch S1 is closed, the load works. After the load switch S1 is opened, after the energy of the load capacitor C1 is released, the load stops working.

[0024] The line of the G pole of the PMOS transistor Q2 is connected between the resistor R2 and the D pole of the NMOS transistor Q3. The line of the G pole of the NMOS transistor Q3 is connected between the resistor R3 and the resistor R4.

[0025] A first node is provided between the resistor R3 and the resistor R4. One end of the first node not connected to the resistor R3 and the resistor R4 is connected to an external power supply.

[0026] A second node is provided between the diode D1 and the PMOS transistor Q1. One end of the second node not connected to the diode D1 and the PMOS transistor Q1 is connected to an external power supply.

[0027] Specific implementation manner of this example: When the voltage drop of the load capacitor C1 is 0, that is, when the load capacitor C1 has no energy, the external power supply V_IN = 12V, and the nominal value of the battery voltage is 12V; when the power supply plug of the external power supply is inserted and powered on, the power supply voltage V_IN = 12V, the voltage of the load capacitor C1 is 0, the load switch S1 is closed, and the load starts to work. Due to the one-way conduction of the diode D1, the external power supply supplies power to the load at this time; when the battery voltage is insufficient and only 10V, the voltage of the G pole of the PMOS transistor Q1 is greater than that of the S pole, the PMOS transistor Q1 is cut off, the voltage of the G pole of the NMOS transistor Q3 is greater than that of the S pole, the PMOS transistor Q1 is turned on, the G pole of the PMOS transistor Q2 is pulled low, the voltage of the G pole of the PMOS transistor Q2 is less than that of the S pole, and the PMOS transistor Q2 is turned on. At this time, the external power supply will charge the battery through the D pole and S pole of the PMOS transistor Q2; when the battery is full, that is, when the battery voltage reaches 12V (ignoring the voltage drop of the diode D1), there is no voltage difference between the battery voltage and the external power supply, and the battery stops charging; when the battery voltage is sufficient, there is no charging process for the power supply plug of the external power supply, and it directly supplies power to the load; when the power supply plug of the external power supply is unplugged, the voltage of the G pole of the PMOS transistor Q1 is pulled low by the resistor R4, the voltage of the G pole of the PMOS transistor Q1 is less than the voltage of the S pole of the PMOS transistor Q1, the PMOS transistor Q1 is cut off, and the dummy load R1 will consume the energy of the load capacitor C1, and the voltage of the load capacitor C1 will decrease. At this time, the battery continues to supply power; when the voltage of the NMOS transistor Q3 is 0, the NMOS transistor Q3 is cut off, the G pole and S of the PMOS transistor Q2 are clamped by the resistor R2, and the PMOS transistor Q2 is cut off. At this time, the body diode of the PMOS transistor Q2 is also cut off. Therefore, the battery can only supply power to the load through the PMOS transistor Q1.

[0028] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
