It should be noted that the switch circuit 33 may not be limited to a PMOS fet, as long as it can realize a switch electronic component or a combination of switch electronic components, such as a relay, a breaker, etc., for turning off or on the circuit in which the load is located according to the output control signal of the second comparator circuit 31.
In order to better understand the working principle of the overload and short-circuit protection circuit provided by the embodiment of the present invention, an alternative embodiment is taken as an example to illustrate the working mode of the overload and short-circuit protection circuit.
When the circuit where the load is located is in an operating state, the IO port of the microcontroller outputs a high level, and at this time, the voltage U4 at the negative phase input end of the first comparator 211 is the divided voltage of the power supply VCC across the resistor R5, and the calculation formula is U4 ═ VCC R5/(R4+ R5); the voltage U2 at the non-inverting input terminal of the second comparator 311 is the divided voltage of the power VCC across the second resistor R6, and the calculation formula is U2 ═ VCC R6/(R6+ R7); the voltage U1 at the negative input terminal of the second comparator 311 is the divided voltage of the power VCC across the resistor R11, and the calculation formula is U1 ═ VCC R11/(R11+ R10); the resistors R6 and R7 and the resistors R11 and R10 can be selected, so that U1 is greater than U2.
The detected voltage U3 at the detection resistor R1 is equal to the voltage U5 at the positive phase input end of the first comparator 211, when the voltage U5 at the positive phase input end of the first comparator 211 is greater than the voltage U4 at the negative phase input end thereof, the overload protection circuit starts the protection mechanism, so that the critical point of the overload and short-circuit protection circuit start protection mechanism is that the voltage U5 at the positive phase input end of the first comparator 211 is equal to the voltage U4 at the negative phase input end, and the overload current I of the circuit design is the ratio of the voltage at the critical point to the resistance value of the detection resistor R1, that is, I is U3/R1-U4/R1. The overload current I is also the protection starting current of the overload and protection starting circuit triggering the starting protection mechanism.
When U1> U2, the output terminal of the second comparator 311 outputs a low level, the PMOS fet in the switch circuit 33 is turned on, and the circuit in which the load is located maintains a normal operating state.
When the current detection circuit 10 detects that the current flowing through the load 40 is larger than the overload current I, the voltage U5 at the positive input terminal of the first comparator 211 charges the first charging capacitor C1 through the first resistor R3, and the response time T2 that the voltage U5 at the positive input terminal of the first comparator 211 rises to be equal to the voltage U4 at the negative input terminal can be determined according to the aforementioned formula one. When the time T2 is reached, U5> U4, the output terminal of the first comparator 211 changes from output low level to output high level, the first switch element Q1 is turned on, the power supply charges the second charging capacitor C3 in the second charging and discharging circuit 312 through the first switch element Q1, when the voltage on the second charging capacitor C3 is charged to be greater than the voltage U1 at the negative input terminal of the second comparator 311, the output terminal of the second comparator 311 changes from output low level to output high level, and the PMOS fet is turned off to cut off the circuit where the load is located, so as to enter the protection mode. In addition, since the first switching element Q1 is turned on and then is directly charged by the power supply, the charging time of the second charging capacitor C3 can be very short.
During the protection mode, after the PMOS fet is turned off, the voltage U3 detected at the detection resistor R1 is 0, the first charging capacitor C1 in the first charging/discharging circuit 22 is discharged, the output of the first comparator 211 becomes low, and the first switching element Q1 is turned off. At this time, the voltage U2 at the non-inverting input terminal of the second comparator 311 is still greater than the voltage U1 at the inverting input terminal, and after the voltage U2 at the non-inverting input terminal of the second comparator 311 is discharged to a voltage value less than the voltage U1 at the inverting input terminal through the second resistor R6R6, the output terminal of the second comparator 311 becomes low, and the PMOS fet is turned on again to connect the circuit where the load is located to recover to the operating mode. The discharge time T1 of the second charging capacitor C3 can be determined according to the second formula. And when the PMOS field effect transistor is conducted again and the circuit is recovered to work normally, if overload current exists, the overload protection circuit is switched between the working mode and the protection mode in a circulating mode according to the steps, and if the overload current disappears after self recovery, the circuit where the load is located is maintained in a normal working state.
When the short-circuit current flowing through the load is larger than the overload current I of the circuit design when the circuit of the load is in the short-circuit state, the voltage U3 detected at the detection resistor R1 is the product of the short-circuit current and the detection resistor R1, and the response time T2 when the voltage U5 at the positive phase input end of the first comparator 211 rises to be equal to the voltage U4 at the negative phase input end can still be determined according to the above formula one. When the time T2 is reached, U5> U4, the output terminal of the first comparator 211 changes from output low level to output high level, the first switch element Q1 is turned on, the power supply charges the second charging capacitor C3 in the second charging and discharging circuit 312 through the first switch element Q1, when the voltage on the second charging capacitor C3 is charged to be greater than the voltage U1 at the negative input terminal of the second comparator 311, the output terminal of the second comparator 311 changes from output low level to output high level, and the PMOS fet is turned off to cut off the circuit where the load is located, so as to enter the protection mode. In addition, since the first switching element Q1 is turned on and then is directly charged by the power supply, the charging time of the second charging capacitor C3 can be very short.
During the protection mode, after the PMOS fet is turned off, the voltage U3 detected at the detection resistor R1 is 0, the first charging capacitor C1 in the first charging/discharging circuit 22 is discharged, the output of the first comparator 211 becomes low, and the first switching element Q1 is turned off. At this time, the voltage U2 at the non-inverting input terminal of the second comparator 311 is still greater than the voltage U1 at the inverting input terminal, and after the voltage U2 at the non-inverting input terminal of the second comparator 311 is discharged to a voltage value less than the voltage U1 at the inverting input terminal through the second resistor R6R6, the output terminal of the second comparator 311 becomes low, and the PMOS fet is turned on again to connect the circuit where the load is located to recover to the operating mode. The discharge time T1 of the second charging capacitor C3 can be determined according to the second formula. And after the PMOS field effect transistor is conducted again and the circuit is recovered to work normally, if a short circuit phenomenon exists, the overload protection circuit is switched between the working mode and the protection mode in a circulating mode according to the steps, and if the short circuit phenomenon disappears after self recovery, the circuit where the load is located is maintained in a normal working state.
