[0017] This invention provides a circuit for preventing surge current. It has the following advantages:
[0018] 1.

Attached Figure Description
[0021] Figure 1 This is a circuit diagram of a circuit for preventing surge current according to the present invention. Detailed Implementation
[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] As shown in the figure, the circuit for preventing surge current provided by this utility model includes a surge current suppression circuit, a fast recovery surge current suppression circuit, and a filter suppression circuit. The input terminal of the surge current suppression circuit is connected to the device input terminal, and the output terminal of the filter suppression circuit is connected to the device output terminal.
[0024] The inrush current suppression circuit includes a rectifier diode D1, a Zener diode D2, a voltage divider resistor R1, a current-limiting resistor R2, a voltage divider resistor R3, a current-limiting resistor R4, a delay capacitor C1, and a MOSFET Q1. The positive terminal of the power input is connected to the rectifier diode D1. The output of the rectifier diode D1 is split into two paths. The first path outputs to the positive terminal of the filter suppression circuit, and the second path is connected to the voltage divider resistor R1. One output of the voltage divider resistor R1 is connected to the current-limiting resistor R2. The output of the current-limiting resistor R2 is connected to the delay capacitor C1, the voltage divider resistor R3, and the gate of the MOSFET Q1. The other output of the voltage divider resistor R1 is connected to the negative terminal of the Zener diode D2. The positive terminal of the Zener diode D2 is connected to the delay capacitor C1, the voltage divider resistor R3, the source of the MOSFET, the current-limiting resistor R4, and the negative terminal of the power input. One end of the current-limiting resistor R4 and the drain of the MOSFET are connected to the negative terminal of the filter suppression circuit.
[0025] When the equipment is powered on normally, all capacitances between the positive and negative lines are approximately short-circuited. Current flows out through the positive line, through the rectifier diode D1, and then back to the negative power supply line through the current-limiting resistor R4. Due to the constant current effect of the resistor, the current is limited to the design value. Before the MOSFET Q1 is turned on, the loop current can only flow back to the negative power supply terminal through the current-limiting resistor. When the voltage across the delay capacitor C1 reaches the gate-source voltage required for the MOSFET to turn on, the MOSFET Q1 turns on. The capacitance of resistors R1, R2, and C1, together with the capacitance of the capacitances between the positive and negative lines, determines the charging time of the delay capacitor. The voltage divider resistor R3, along with the voltage divider resistor R1 and the current-limiting resistor R2, divides the voltage proportionally to ensure the reliable conduction of the MOSFET Q1 and prevent the MOSFET Q1 from failing to turn on due to excessively low voltage. The Zener diode D2 stabilizes the gate-source voltage of the MOSFET Q1 within a safe value, preventing the MOSFET Q1 from burning out due to excessively high gate-source voltage, thus avoiding risks to the equipment.
[0026] The fast recovery surge current suppression circuit mainly consists of three additional components: voltage divider resistor R5, voltage divider resistor R6, transistor Q2, and some components of the surge current suppression circuit. One end of voltage divider resistor R5 is connected to the positive terminal of the input power supply, and the other end is connected to the collector of voltage divider resistor R6 and transistor Q2 respectively. The other end of voltage divider resistor R6 is connected to the base of transistor Q2, and the emitter of transistor Q2 is connected to the gate of MOSFET Q1.
[0027] When powered on, the base voltage of transistor Q2 is higher than the emitter voltage, the emitter junction is reverse biased, causing transistor Q2 to be cut off, and the delay capacitor C1 charges normally. When the power supply is interrupted, the base voltage is lower than the emitter voltage, the emitter junction is forward biased, and the transistor is in amplification mode with extremely low internal resistance. It is approximately equivalent to directly shorting the two ends of the delay capacitor C1. The charge of the delay capacitor C1 is consumed in a very short time, causing the voltage across the gate and source of MOSFET Q1 to drop rapidly to 0 volts, and MOSFET Q1 is turned off. Therefore, from the time the power supply is interrupted until it is powered on again, when the voltage across the delay capacitor C1 reaches the gate and source voltage required for MOSFET to conduct again, the MOSFET turns on again. Before this, the current in the circuit can only flow back to the negative terminal of the power supply through the current limiting resistor R4, thereby achieving the performance of suppressing the inrush current again.
[0028] The filtering and suppression circuit includes differential-mode capacitor CX1, differential-mode capacitor CX2, differential-mode inductor L1, common-mode inductor L2, common-mode capacitor CY1, and common-mode capacitor CY2. Differential-mode capacitors CX1 and CX2 between the positive and negative lines provide a low-impedance path, diverting low-frequency interference back to the driver. Differential-mode inductor L1 dissipates the energy carried by low-frequency interference through heat generation, thereby reducing the energy carried by low-frequency interference and lowering the energy received by the test receiver to meet test standards. Common-mode inductor L2 effectively suppresses high-frequency interference, reducing the energy carried by high-frequency interference. Common-mode capacitors CY1 and CY2 provide a low-impedance path for high-frequency interference, changing the interference flow path and diverting common-mode interference to ground, preventing it from entering the test terminal or other equipment, thus ensuring the normal operation of other equipment.
