Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electronic circuit protection technology, specifically to a multi-protection DC power input circuit. Background Technology

[0002] With the widespread application of electronic devices, DC power supply systems face more complex operating environments. For example, in scenarios such as portable computers, home appliances, and data centers, DC power supply systems need to cope with issues such as sudden changes in high-power loads and line interference. Traditional power supply systems, due to problems such as harmonic interference, can no longer meet high reliability requirements, making DC technology a research hotspot. DC input protection circuits are safety protection devices designed for DC power supply systems, primarily used to prevent damage to equipment caused by abnormal conditions such as overvoltage, overcurrent, and reverse connection. Their core design concept is based on power electronics technology, achieving multi-dimensional protection through the integration of multiple protection mechanisms.

[0003] The existing power input circuit is a combination of TVS, fuse, and diode to form an overvoltage, overcurrent, and reverse connection protection circuit. However, the one-time fuse cannot be recovered after a failure, resulting in high maintenance costs. The diode reverse connection protection circuit has a voltage drop loss of more than 0.7V, and the power consumed by the diode increases with the increase of the load circuit current. The increase of ambient temperature will significantly reduce the clamping performance of the TVS tube, making it unable to cope with complex fault scenarios. Utility Model Content

[0039] Wherein, each capacitor is a surface-mount capacitor, and each resistor is a surface-mount resistor.

[0040] The calculation formula for the overvoltage lockout terminal is: VOVLO=1.2x(1+R1 / R2). When passing through the overvoltage protection chip U1, the matching resistors R1\R2 of the protection threshold are calculated using the configuration function of the IC to realize the input overvoltage protection function.

[0041] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: The DC 12V input power supply is protected against overcurrent by the fast recovery fuse F1 and TVS surge protection device D1 in the overcurrent protection circuit; it is also protected against reverse connection by the first PMOS field-effect transistor Q1 in the reverse connection protection circuit; when passing through the overvoltage protection chip U1 in the overvoltage protection circuit, the IC's configuration function is used to calculate the matching resistors R1 and R2 for the protection threshold, thus achieving input overvoltage protection; when passing through the power switch protection circuit, the fast switching function of the second PMOS field-effect transistor Q2 is used to control the rapid trigger shutdown signal at the gate, realizing the power on / off switch of the device and shortening the shutdown delay; when passing through the intelligent shutdown circuit, the output DC power supply powers the monitoring circuit of the control board. When abnormalities are detected in the operating voltage, circuit, or temperature of the control board, the power shutdown signal MCU_POWER_EN is output at a low level according to the preset threshold, and NPN transistor Q4 is turned off, while Q3 is turned off, cutting off the downstream power supply of the DC 12V power supply. This achieves monitoring and feedback protection of the operating status of the control board and the input power supply, providing dual protection for both the front and rear power supplies.

[0042] The reverse connection protection works as follows: When the power supply polarity is correct, the current initially flows through the Zener diode of the MOSFET, causing the source (S) voltage to be close to 0V. After the voltage is divided by the two resistors, a voltage is provided to the gate (G), causing the MOSFET to conduct. Because its on-resistance is very small, it replaces the internal diode of the MOSFET. When the power supply is reversed, the internal diode of the MOSFET does not conduct until it reaches its breakdown voltage. The voltage divider resistors have no current flowing through them and cannot provide a voltage to the gate, so they also do not conduct, thus providing protection.

[0043] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions provided are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of protection of this utility model as defined by the appended claims and their equivalents. Any aspects of this utility model not detailed herein are well-known to those skilled in the art.
