Description

Charging interface overcurrent turn-off protection circuit
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of integrated circuit design, and particularly relates to an overcurrent turn-off protection circuit.
Background
The portable electronic equipment is increasingly popularized and gradually becomes a necessity in life, and charging accessory products thereof are rapidly developed, such as various USB and TYPE-C interface charging products, so that how to effectively protect the charging and charged equipment during charging is a problem to be solved by the invention.
In the technical field of traditional circuits, an overcurrent protection circuit is a circuit which effectively protects a load and the whole circuit when the load current exceeds a threshold current. One conventional overcurrent protection method is to use a resettable fuse, which fuses to open a current path when a current exceeds the maximum current capacity of the resettable fuse, and then recovers to close the current path after a short-circuit fault is removed. The overcurrent protection measures adopting the restorable fuse have relatively weak protection reliability due to long fuse fusing time, and are inconvenient to adjust the overcurrent protection threshold point. Another common overcurrent protection is a hiccup protection mode, that is, when the current exceeds a threshold protection point, protection is performed through a sampling-comparing-switch-off (toff delay off time) -sampling-comparing-switch-on circulating mode, which has a certain protection capability on the load, but if the short-circuit fault is not eliminated, the hiccup protection is performed all the time, the load is continuously impacted, and meanwhile, the current switch continuously acts, and the temperature accumulation of the device rises, so that the reliability becomes low and even the device burns out. Therefore, in order to solve the above-mentioned deficiencies of the two conventional overcurrent protection methods, the present invention provides a method in which when a load is overcurrent, a circuit immediately turns off a current path and locks a switch to an off state, and only when a fault is removed, the switch is closed, and the load resumes a normal charging operation.
