Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of overvoltage protection technology, and in particular to an overvoltage protection circuit for a high-voltage circuit. Background Technology
[0002] The output voltage of high-voltage and ultra-high-voltage circuits is highly susceptible to abnormal overvoltage phenomena due to various factors. For example, voltage fluctuations on the mains side and surge voltages caused by lightning strikes can cause the output voltage to spike instantaneously. Once this happens, precision components in downstream circuits (such as chips, sensors, and power modules) will be at risk of breakdown and damage, which may not only cause equipment shutdowns and production interruptions, but could even lead to serious safety accidents.
[0003] In existing technologies, overvoltage protection is typically achieved by connecting TVS diodes, varistors, and other protective devices in parallel on the busbar. When an overvoltage occurs in the circuit, these devices can quickly conduct, dissipating the overvoltage energy, thereby clamping the voltage and protecting downstream circuits.
[0004] However, these traditional protection devices are inadequate in high-voltage and ultra-high-voltage applications. Firstly, TVS diodes and varistors have upper limits on their withstand voltage. For ultra-high-voltage environments, it's difficult to find devices with suitable parameters, and even if they are found, their manufacturing processes are complex, significantly increasing costs. Secondly, under high-voltage and high-current conditions, these devices are subjected to enormous energy surges when turned on. Their limited current-carrying capacity makes them prone to burnout and unable to be reused multiple times, failing to meet the protection requirements for long-term stable operation of high-voltage and ultra-high-voltage circuits. Furthermore, their clamping voltage accuracy is relatively low; in high-voltage scenarios, they may not be able to accurately limit the voltage within a safe range, potentially posing a threat to downstream circuits.
[0005] Therefore, for high-voltage and ultra-high-voltage applications, there is an urgent need for a new overvoltage protection circuit that can adapt to the characteristics of high-voltage environments and has reliable protection performance. Utility Model Content

[0022] The output voltage of high-voltage and ultra-high-voltage circuits is highly susceptible to abnormal overvoltage phenomena due to various factors. For example, voltage fluctuations on the mains side and surge voltages caused by lightning strikes can cause the output voltage to spike instantaneously. Once this happens, precision components in downstream circuits (such as chips, sensors, and power modules) will be at risk of breakdown and damage, which may not only cause equipment shutdowns and production interruptions, but could even lead to serious safety accidents.

[0025] Therefore, for high-voltage and ultra-high-voltage applications, there is an urgent need for a new overvoltage protection circuit that can adapt to the characteristics of high-voltage environments and has reliable protection performance.
[0026] Against this background, this disclosure provides an overvoltage protection circuit for high-voltage circuits, which can realize overvoltage protection for high-voltage circuits.
[0027] The overvoltage protection circuit of this high-voltage circuit will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0028] Figure 1 This is a system block diagram of an overvoltage protection circuit for a high-voltage circuit provided in an embodiment of this application. (See diagram below.) Figure 1 As shown, the overvoltage protection circuit of this high-voltage circuit may include: Voltage acquisition module 110, reference voltage acquisition module 120, overvoltage detection module 130, and shunt module 140; The input terminal of the voltage detection module 110 is electrically connected to one end of the high voltage bus 100 and the shunt module 140, respectively. The output terminal of the voltage detection module 110 is electrically connected to one input terminal of the overvoltage detection module 130. The output terminal of the reference voltage acquisition module 120 is electrically connected to the other input terminal of the overvoltage detection module 130. The output terminal of the overvoltage detection module 130 is electrically connected to the other end of the shunt module 140. The voltage detection module 110 is used to divide the input high-voltage bus 110 voltage and output the detection voltage; The reference voltage acquisition module 120 is used to output a reference voltage; The overvoltage detection module 130 is used to compare the detected voltage with the reference voltage and output a no-overvoltage signal or an overvoltage signal. The shunt module 140 is used to shunt the current of the high-voltage bus 100 according to the overvoltage signal to achieve overvoltage protection.
[0029] It is understandable that when the detected voltage is greater than the reference voltage, the overvoltage detection module outputs an overvoltage signal; when the detected voltage is less than the reference voltage, the overvoltage detection module outputs a no-overvoltage signal.
[0030] This embodiment uses a voltage detection module to divide the input high-voltage bus voltage and output a detection voltage. A reference voltage acquisition module is used to output a reference voltage. An overvoltage detection module compares the detection voltage with the reference voltage and outputs either a no-overvoltage signal or an overvoltage signal. When a high-voltage bus overvoltage occurs, the shunt module shunts the current of the high-voltage bus according to the overvoltage signal. This solves the technical problem that traditional overvoltage protection devices are difficult to apply in high-voltage and ultra-high-voltage scenarios, and achieves overvoltage protection for high-voltage circuits.

The other end of the sixth capacitor C6 is connected to the other end of the fifth capacitor C5, the output terminal of the operational amplifier IC1, and one end of the seventh resistor R7.
[0039] In this embodiment, the rise / fall rate of the operational amplifier IC1 is adjusted by the tenth resistor R10, the fifth capacitor C5, and the sixth capacitor C6 to avoid oscillation or excessively fast / slow response, thereby optimizing the dynamic response characteristics of the operational amplifier IC1.
[0040] refer to Figure 2 Specifically, the traffic splitting module includes: First diode D1, fourth resistor R4, first transistor VT1, second resistor R2; One end of the second resistor R2 is connected to the first high-voltage bus node Vo1, the second high-voltage bus node Vo2, and the input terminal of the voltage detection module, respectively. One end of the fourth resistor R4 is connected to a 12V regulated power source, and the other end of the fourth resistor R4 is connected to the positive terminal of the first diode D1.

The negative terminal of the second diode D2 is connected to the other end of the second resistor R2 and the collector of the first transistor VT1, respectively.
[0042] In this embodiment, the sixth resistor R6 and the second diode D2 are used as auxiliary voltage regulator circuits to further stabilize the base voltage of the first transistor VT1, ensuring that the conduction state of the first transistor VT1 is only controlled by the output signal of the operational amplifier IC1, and avoiding abnormal rise in the base voltage of the first transistor VT1 (such as fluctuation of the 12V voltage regulator or external interference) which would cause reverse breakdown between the base and emitter of the first transistor VT1.
[0043] refer to Figure 3 In some possible embodiments, the overvoltage protection circuit of the high-voltage circuit further includes: First bus filter capacitor C1, second bus filter capacitor C2; One end of the first bus filter capacitor C1 is connected to the high-voltage bus, the input terminal of the voltage detection module, one end of the shunt module, and one end of the second bus filter capacitor C2. The other end of the first bus filter capacitor C1 is grounded, and the other end of the second bus filter capacitor C2 is grounded.
[0044] In this embodiment, the first bus filter capacitor C1 and the second bus filter capacitor C2 are used as filter capacitors for the high-voltage bus, which can filter out the ripple in the voltage of the high-voltage bus, making the bus voltage more stable and avoiding interference from the bus ripple with the subsequent operation of the overvoltage protection circuit.
[0045] The overvoltage protection circuit of the high-voltage circuit in this application is illustrated below with a complete example. (Reference) Figure 3 The overall circuit of the overvoltage protection circuit of this high-voltage circuit is as follows: One end of the first bus filter capacitor C1 is connected to the first high-voltage bus node Vo1, one end of the first resistor R1, one end of the second resistor R2, one end of the second bus filter capacitor C2, and the second high-voltage bus node Vo2. The other end of the first bus filter capacitor C1 is grounded, and the other end of the second bus filter capacitor C2 is grounded. The other end of the first resistor R1 is connected to one end of the third resistor R3, one end of the third capacitor C3, and one end of the ninth resistor R9. The other ends of the third resistor R3 and the third capacitor C3 are both grounded. The other end of the ninth resistor R9 is connected to one end of the tenth resistor R10, one end of the fifth capacitor C5, and the inverting input of the operational amplifier IC1. The other end of the tenth resistor R10 is connected to one end of the sixth capacitor C6. The non-inverting input of operational amplifier IC1 is connected to one end of the fifth resistor R5, one end of the fourth capacitor C4, and one end of the eighth resistor R8. The other end of the fifth resistor R5 is connected to a 12V regulated power supply. The other ends of the fourth capacitor C4 and the eighth resistor R8 are both grounded. The positive power supply of operational amplifier IC1 is connected to a 12V regulated power supply, and the negative power supply of operational amplifier IC1 is grounded. The output of operational amplifier IC1 is connected to one end of the seventh resistor R7, the other end of the fifth capacitor C5, and the other end of the sixth capacitor C6. The other end of the seventh resistor R7 is connected to the emitter of the first transistor VT1; the base of the first transistor VT1 is connected to one end of the sixth resistor R6 and the cathode of the first diode D1, the anode of the first diode D1 is connected to one end of the fourth resistor R4, and the other end of the fourth resistor R4 is connected to a 12V regulated power supply; the other end of the sixth resistor R6 is connected to the anode of the second diode D2, and the cathode of the second diode D2 is connected to the collector of the first transistor VT1 and the other end of the second resistor R2.
[0046] In this embodiment, when a high-voltage bus overvoltage occurs, the voltage at the voltage divider node of the first resistor R1 and the third resistor R3 will increase. This causes the input voltage at the inverting input of operational amplifier IC1 to be greater than the voltage divided by the fifth resistor R5 and the eighth resistor R8 at the non-inverting input of the 12V regulated power supply. This results in a decrease in the output voltage of operational amplifier IC1, which in turn lowers the emitter voltage of the first transistor VT1. Meanwhile, the base voltage of the first transistor VT1 remains stable under the 12V regulated power supply, the fourth resistor R4, and the first diode D1. Therefore, the voltage difference between the base and emitter voltages of the first transistor VT1 will increase, thereby enhancing the conduction of the first transistor VT1 and increasing the base and emitter currents. At this time, the second resistor R2 diverts the current from the high-voltage bus, reducing the current flowing to the purely resistive load. For a purely resistive load, V = I × R. The decrease in load current will cause the voltage across the load to drop, thus achieving overvoltage protection for the high-voltage bus.
[0047] It can be understood that the first high-voltage bus node Vo1 and the second high-voltage bus node Vo2 represent different locations on the same high-voltage bus; the positive power supply terminal of the operational amplifier IC1 is connected to a 12V regulated power source, and the negative power supply terminal of the operational amplifier IC1 is grounded.
[0048] The first resistor R1 and the third resistor R3 form a voltage divider circuit, which is used to reduce the voltage of the high-voltage bus proportionally and transmit it as the detection voltage to the negative input terminal of the operational amplifier IC1.
[0049] The fifth resistor R5 and the eighth resistor R8 are used to divide the voltage from the 12V regulated source to obtain a stable reference voltage, which is then input to the non-inverting input of the operational amplifier IC1 as a comparison standard for "overvoltage".
[0050] Operational amplifier IC1 acts as a voltage comparator, used to reduce the output voltage and trigger subsequent protection actions when the negative terminal voltage (detection voltage) is higher than the positive terminal voltage (reference voltage).
[0051] The first transistor VT1 is used to increase the conduction degree of the first transistor VT1 when the output of the first transistor VT1 decreases, thereby shunting the high-voltage bus current.
[0052] The second resistor R2 is used to shunt the high-voltage bus current through the second resistor R2 and the first transistor VT1 when the first transistor VT1 is turned on, thereby reducing the load current.
[0053] The fourth resistor R4 and the first diode D1 are used to ensure the stability of the base voltage of the first transistor VT1, so that the conduction degree of the first transistor VT1 can be adjusted according to the change of the emitter voltage.
[0054] The ninth resistor R9 is used to transmit the "overvoltage detection signal" after the voltage divider of the first resistor R1 and the third resistor R3 to the negative input terminal of the operational amplifier IC1. At the same time, it limits the current flowing into the operational amplifier IC1, protects the input pins of the operational amplifier IC1, and prevents the current of the voltage divider circuit from being too large and damaging the operational amplifier IC1.
[0055] The seventh resistor, R7, is used to transmit the output of operational amplifier IC1 to the emitter of the first transistor VT1, adjusting the emitter voltage of VT1 and limiting the current flowing from the output of operational amplifier IC1 to the emitter of VT1. This prevents damage to the operational amplifier due to overcurrent (the operational amplifier's output current capability is limited, typically only in the mA range, while the emitter current of VT1 may be large. If the seventh resistor, R7, is removed, the output of operational amplifier IC1 will be directly connected to the emitter of VT1; in this case, the emitter current of VT1 will be directly provided by the operational amplifier's output, far exceeding the operational amplifier's maximum output current capability, inevitably leading to the burnout of operational amplifier IC1). It also reduces the interference of VT1 emitter current fluctuations on the output of operational amplifier IC1, ensuring stable operation of operational amplifier IC1.
