Abstract
This invention provides an inverter overcurrent protection circuit, including a voltage comparator and a voltage adjustable circuit. The negative input terminal of the voltage comparator is connected to an inductor current sampling voltage. The input terminal of the voltage adjustable circuit is connected to an adjustable voltage signal, and the positive output terminal of the voltage adjustable circuit is connected to the positive input terminal of the voltage comparator. The output terminal of the voltage comparator outputs an overcurrent protection signal. The inductor is the output inductor of the inverter, and the inductor current sampling voltage is the voltage obtained by sampling and converting the current flowing through the inductor. The voltage comparator is a comparator or an operational amplifier. When the voltage comparator is a comparator, one end of the comparator's output terminal is connected to a pull-up resistor, and the other end of the pull-up resistor is connected to a pull-up power supply. This inverter overcurrent protection circuit can quickly achieve inverter overcurrent protection, protecting the inverter from damage and improving product reliability.
