[0040] The overvoltage protection circuit is a circuit design for protecting electronic devices and circuits from overvoltage damage, which has been widely used in power protection, communication equipment, household appliances, battery management systems and other application occasions. Its main function is to protect, shunt or limit voltage through specific components, to ensure that the circuit, device and its components are not affected by overvoltage when the voltage in the circuit exceeds the safe working range. Generally, the overvoltage protection circuit is installed at the power input end or the important load end, which can quickly respond to voltage changes, thereby achieving the effect of preventing the device from being damaged.

[0041] At present, there are some overvoltage protection circuits on the market, but these circuits often have the problem of low protection accuracy. For example, some overvoltage protection circuits use a simple voltage comparator to detect overvoltage conditions, but due to the limited accuracy of the voltage comparator itself, false positives or false negatives can easily occur. Therefore, a more accurate and relatively simple overvoltage protection circuit is needed to meet the needs of practical applications.

[0042] To address the aforementioned issues, this application designs an overvoltage protection circuit and its power supply system for the equipment. The circuit uses a first voltage divider unit to divide the output voltage of the equipment and transmits the divided voltage to a reference voltage control unit. When the obtained divided voltage differs from its own reference voltage, the reference voltage control unit precisely controls the on / off state of the first switching unit, thereby improving the accuracy of overvoltage protection. Furthermore, the reference voltage control unit designed in this scheme can adjust the pre-stored reference voltage based on the voltage condition of the protected equipment, thus improving the adaptability of the overvoltage protection. Additionally, the first switching unit in this scheme uses a PMOS transistor, and the reference voltage control unit uses a transistor to control the first switching unit. This rapid switching between the PMOS transistor and the transistor ensures that the circuit can quickly respond to overvoltage events, improving the efficiency of overvoltage protection.

[0043] Based on the above ideas, this application first provides an overvoltage protection circuit, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the overvoltage protection circuit includes a reference voltage control unit 10, a first switching unit 20, and a first voltage divider unit 30. The input terminal of the first switching unit 20 is electrically connected to the device voltage input terminal A, and the output terminal of the first switching unit 20 is electrically connected to the device voltage output terminal B. The control terminal of the first switching unit 20 is electrically connected to the output terminal of the reference voltage control unit 10. The reference terminal of the reference voltage control unit 10 is electrically connected to the device voltage output terminal B through the first voltage divider unit 30, and the input terminal of the reference voltage control unit 10 is grounded. The reference voltage control unit 10 represents a device unit composed of a reference voltage chip, which can also be called a voltage reference chip. It conducts an output signal when the received voltage is greater than or equal to its own reference voltage, and does not conduct or output a signal when the received voltage is less than its own reference voltage.

[0044] The overvoltage protection circuit designed above operates normally as follows: When the output voltage Vout at the device voltage output terminal B is normal, the first voltage divider unit 30 divides the output voltage Vout. The divided voltage from the first voltage divider unit 30 is transmitted to the reference voltage control unit 10. At this time, assuming that the divided voltage obtained by the reference voltage control unit 10 is less than its own reference voltage, the reference voltage control unit 10 controls the first switch unit 20 to be turned on. The voltage at the device voltage input terminal A is normally transmitted to the device voltage output terminal B through the turned-on first switch unit 20. The device voltage output terminal B transmits the output voltage Vout to the device to supply power to the electrical equipment.

[0045] The overvoltage protection circuit designed above has an overvoltage working state: when the output voltage Vout of the device voltage output end B is too high, the reference voltage control unit 10 controls the first switch unit to be cut off, the connection between the device voltage input end A and the device voltage output end B is cut off, and the input voltage Vin of the device voltage input end A is transmitted to the ground, so as to protect the electrical equipment from damage caused by the overvoltage.

[0046] The overvoltage protection circuit designed above has an overvoltage working state: when the output voltage Vout of the device voltage output end B is too high, the reference voltage control unit 10 controls the first switch unit to be cut off, the connection between the device voltage input end A and the device voltage output end B is cut off, and the input voltage Vin of the device voltage input end A is transmitted to the ground, so as to protect the electrical equipment from damage caused by the overvoltage.

[0047] In an optional embodiment of the present embodiment, the first voltage dividing unit 30 designed in the present solution can be a voltage dividing unit composed of resistors in series, as shown in Figure 2 Specifically, the first voltage dividing unit 30 can include a first voltage dividing resistor R1 and a second voltage dividing resistor R2, a first end of the first voltage dividing resistor R1 is electrically connected with the device voltage output end B, a second end of the first voltage dividing resistor R1 is electrically connected with a first end of the second voltage dividing resistor R2 and a reference end of the reference voltage control unit 10 respectively, and a second end of the second voltage dividing resistor R2 is grounded.

[0048] In the above embodiment, the present solution realizes the voltage division of the output voltage Vout of the device voltage output end B through the first voltage dividing resistor R1 and the second voltage dividing resistor R2, so as to provide a suitable voltage for the reference voltage control unit 10, thereby avoiding the case that the output voltage Vout is too large to exceed the rated voltage of the reference voltage control unit 10, and thereby causing damage to the reference voltage control unit 10.

[0049] In the above embodiment, the present solution forms the first voltage dividing unit through the simple structure of two voltage dividing resistors, so as to provide a suitable voltage for the reference voltage control unit, thereby simplifying the circuit structure and reducing the circuit cost.

[0050] In an optional embodiment of the present embodiment, as a possible embodiment, as shown in Figure 3As shown, the reference voltage control unit 10 designed in the scheme includes a reference voltage chip 110, a second switch unit 120, a second voltage dividing unit 130, and a third voltage dividing unit 140, wherein the second voltage dividing unit 130 and the third voltage dividing unit 140 are connected in parallel, the input ends of the second voltage dividing unit 130 and the third voltage dividing unit 140 are electrically connected with the device voltage input end A, the output end of the second voltage dividing unit 130 is electrically connected with the control end of the first switch unit 20, the ground end of the second voltage dividing unit 130 is electrically connected with the input end of the second switch unit 120, the first output end of the third voltage dividing unit 140 is electrically connected with the cathode of the reference voltage chip 110, the second output end of the third voltage dividing unit 140 is electrically connected with the control end of the second switch unit 120, the ground end of the third voltage dividing unit 140, the anode of the reference voltage chip 110, and the output end of the second switch unit 120 are grounded, and the reference end of the reference voltage chip 110 is electrically connected with the device voltage output end B through the first voltage dividing unit 30. In the scheme, the reference voltage chip 110 can be any type of reference voltage chip on the market, for example, any one of a reference voltage chip based on a bandgap reference principle, a reference voltage chip based on a Zener diode principle, and a reference voltage chip based on a charge pump principle.

[0051] In the normal working state of the overvoltage protection circuit, when the output voltage Vout of the device voltage output end B is normal, the first voltage dividing unit 30 divides the output voltage Vout, and the divided voltage of the first voltage dividing unit 30 is transmitted to the reference voltage chip 110. The divided voltage obtained by the reference voltage chip 110 is less than the reference voltage of the reference voltage chip 110 itself, at which time the reference voltage chip 110 is not turned on. Since the reference voltage chip is not turned on, the voltage obtained by the third voltage dividing unit 140 from the input voltage Vin is transmitted to the control end of the second switch unit 120. Since the voltage is greater than the turn-on voltage of the second switch unit 120, the second switch unit 120 is turned on. Since the second switch unit 120 is turned on, the voltage received by the control end of the first switch unit 20 is the divided voltage obtained by the second voltage dividing unit 130 from the input voltage Vin, and the voltage received by the input end of the first switch unit 20 is the input voltage Vin. At this time, since the voltage at the input end is greater than the voltage at the control end of the first switch unit 20, the turn-on condition of the first switch unit 20 is met, the device voltage input end A transmits the voltage to the device voltage output end B through the first switch unit 20, and the device voltage output end B transmits the output voltage Vout to the device to supply power to the device.

[0052] In the overvoltage working state of the overvoltage protection circuit, when the output voltage Vout of the device voltage output terminal B is too high, the first voltage dividing unit 30 divides the output voltage Vout, and the divided voltage is transmitted to the reference voltage chip 110. The divided voltage obtained by the reference voltage chip 110 is greater than or equal to the reference voltage of the reference voltage chip 110 itself. At this time, the reference voltage chip 110 is turned on. Since the reference voltage chip is turned on, the third voltage dividing unit 140 is grounded through the reference voltage chip, and the voltage value transmitted to the control end of the second switch unit 120 is 0. At this time, the voltage at the control end of the second switch unit 120 is less than the turn-on voltage of the second switch unit 120, so the second switch unit 120 is not turned on. Since the second switch unit 120 is not turned on, the voltage received by the control end of the first switch unit 20 is the input voltage Vin, and the voltage received by the input end of the first switch unit 20 is the input voltage Vin. At this time, since the input end voltage is equal to the voltage at the control end of the first switch unit 20, the turn-on condition of the first switch unit 20 is not met, and the device voltage input terminal A cannot transmit the voltage to the device voltage output terminal B through the first switch unit 20, thereby cutting off the connection between the device voltage input terminal A and the device voltage output terminal B, and transmitting the input voltage Vin of the device voltage input terminal A to the ground through the third voltage dividing unit 140 and the reference voltage chip 110, thereby protecting the electrical equipment from damage caused by excessive voltage.

[0053] In an optional embodiment of the present embodiment, as shown in Figure 4 the first switch unit 20 can be a PMOS tube Q1, the second switch unit 120 can be a triode Q2, and the second voltage dividing unit 130 includes a third voltage dividing resistor R3 and a fourth voltage dividing resistor R4. The first end of the third voltage dividing resistor R3 is electrically connected to the device voltage input terminal A, the second end of the third voltage dividing resistor R3 is electrically connected to the gate of the PMOS tube Q1 and the first end of the fourth voltage dividing resistor R4, and the second end of the fourth voltage dividing resistor R4 is electrically connected to the collector of the triode Q2. The third voltage dividing unit 140 includes a fifth voltage dividing resistor R5, a sixth voltage dividing resistor R6, and a seventh voltage dividing resistor R7. The first end of the fifth voltage dividing resistor R5 is electrically connected to the device voltage input terminal A, the second end of the fifth voltage dividing resistor R5 is electrically connected to the first end of the sixth voltage dividing resistor R6 and the cathode of the reference voltage chip 110, the second end of the sixth voltage dividing resistor R6 is electrically connected to the first end of the seventh voltage dividing resistor R7 and the base of the triode Q2, and the second end of the seventh voltage dividing resistor R7 is grounded. In this scheme, the third voltage dividing resistor R3 not only divides the input voltage Vin, but also plays a role in preventing ESD static electricity, avoiding a high resistance state, and acting as a discharge resistor to prevent the PMOS tube Q1 from malfunctioning and damaging the gate and source of the PMOS tube.

[0054] The implementation of the above design, the normal working state of the overvoltage protection circuit: when the output voltage Vout of the device voltage output end B is normal, the first voltage dividing unit 30 divides the output voltage Vout, and the voltage dividing of the first voltage dividing unit 30 is transmitted to the reference voltage chip 110. The voltage dividing voltage obtained by the reference voltage chip 110 is less than the reference voltage of the reference voltage chip 110 itself. At this time, the reference voltage chip 110 is not turned on. Since the reference voltage chip 110 is not turned on, at this time Figure 4 The voltage at point A in the above formula is the voltage dividing of the fifth voltage dividing resistor R5, the sixth voltage dividing resistor R6 and the seventh voltage dividing resistor R7, which is a high level. The high level voltage is transmitted to the base of the transistor Q2 through the sixth voltage dividing resistor. Since it is greater than the turn-on voltage of the transistor Q2, the transistor Q2 is turned on. Since the transistor Q2 is turned on, the voltage received by the gate of the PMOS tube Q1 is the voltage dividing voltage obtained by dividing the input voltage Vin by the third voltage dividing resistor R3 and the fourth voltage dividing resistor R4, and the voltage received by the source of the PMOS tube Q1 is the input voltage Vin. At this time, since the gate voltage is less than the source voltage, the turn-on condition of the PMOS tube Q1 is met. The device voltage input end A transmits the voltage to the voltage output end B of the device through the PMOS tube Q1, and the device voltage output end B transmits the output voltage Vout to the device to supply power to the power device.

[0055] The implementation of the above design, the overvoltage working state of the overvoltage protection circuit: when the output voltage Vout of the device voltage output end B is too high, the first voltage dividing unit 30 divides the output voltage Vout, and the voltage dividing of the first voltage dividing unit 30 is transmitted to the reference voltage chip 110. The voltage dividing voltage obtained by the reference voltage chip 110 is greater than or equal to the reference voltage of the reference voltage chip 110 itself. At this time, the reference voltage chip 110 is turned on. Since the reference voltage chip 110 is turned on, at this time the fifth voltage dividing resistor R5 is grounded through the reference voltage chip 110. Therefore, the voltage value transmitted to the base of the transistor Q2 is 0. At this time, the base voltage of the transistor Q2 is less than the turn-on voltage of the transistor Q2. Therefore, the transistor Q2 is not turned on. Since the transistor Q2 is not turned on, the voltage received by the gate of the PMOS tube Q1 is the input voltage Vin, and the voltage received by the source of the PMOS tube is the input voltage Vin. At this time, since the gate voltage is equal to the source voltage, the turn-on condition of the PMOS tube Q1 is not met. The device voltage input end A cannot transmit the voltage to the voltage output end B of the device through the PMOS tube Q1, thereby cutting off the connection between the device voltage input end A and the device voltage output end B, and transmitting the input voltage Vin of the device voltage input end A to the ground through the fifth voltage dividing resistor R5 and the reference voltage chip 110, thereby protecting the power device from damage caused by overvoltage.

[0056] In the above embodiment, the first switch unit is designed by using a PMOS tube, and the reference voltage control unit is designed by using a transistor to control the first switch unit, so that the circuit can quickly respond to an overvoltage event through the rapid switching of the PMOS tube and the transistor, and the efficiency of overvoltage protection is improved.

[0057] In an optional embodiment of the present embodiment, as shown in Figure 5 the overvoltage protection circuit can further include a protection diode D1, a positive electrode of the protection diode D1 being electrically connected to the gate of the PMOS tube Q1, and a negative electrode of the protection diode D1 being electrically connected to the device voltage input end A.

[0058] The protection diode D1 can protect the gate and the source of the PMOS tube Q1. Since the MOSFET is an insulated gate field effect tube, the gate has no direct current path and has high input impedance, and is prone to cause static charge accumulation, thereby generating a high voltage to break down the insulation layer between the gate and the source. The protection diode D1 can embed the static electricity below the voltage stabilizing value, and effectively protect the insulation layer of the gate and the source.

[0059] In an optional embodiment of the present embodiment, in order to improve the stability and reliability of the overvoltage protection circuit, as shown in Figure 6 the overvoltage protection circuit can further include a first protection capacitor C1 and a second protection capacitor C2, the first protection capacitor C1 being connected in parallel with the sixth voltage dividing resistor R6, and the second protection capacitor C2 being connected in parallel with the first voltage dividing resistor R1.

[0060] In an optional embodiment of the present embodiment, in order to improve the stability and reliability of the overvoltage protection circuit, as shown in Figure 7 the overvoltage protection circuit can further include a filter unit, the filter unit being arranged between the PMOS tube Q1 and the device voltage output end B.

[0061] Please continue to refer to Figure 7 the filter unit can be composed of an inductor L1, a filter resistor R8, a first filter capacitor C3, and a second filter capacitor C4, so as to suppress the transient current and noise between the PMOS tube Q1 and the device voltage output end B, thereby improving the anti-interference ability of the designed overvoltage protection circuit.

[0062] The present application also provides a power supply system for an electric device, which can include the overvoltage protection circuit of any of the optional embodiments described above.

[0063] The power supply system for the electrical equipment designed above, since it contains the overvoltage protection circuit described above, the power supply system for the electrical equipment designed above performs voltage division on the equipment output voltage through the first voltage division unit, and transmits the voltage division to the reference voltage control unit, the reference voltage control unit realizes accurate control of the on / off of the first switch unit in the case that the obtained voltage division is different from the reference voltage of the reference voltage control unit, so as to improve the accuracy of overvoltage protection based on the voltage division obtained by the reference voltage control unit and the reference voltage of the reference voltage control unit.
