It can be understood that, when the first level control signal provided by the embodiment of the present invention is a high level signal and the enable signal is a high level signal, the first level control signal is inverted by the fourth inverter and then becomes a low level signal, the low level signal and the high level signal of the enable signal are input to the and gate, so that the and gate outputs a low level turn-off signal, and the turn-off signal can control the substrate of the P-type power transistor connected to the power terminal of the second inverter to be electrically connected to the gate of the P-type power transistor, thereby achieving the purpose of controlling the turn-off of the P-type power transistor; and when the second level control signal is a low level signal and the enable signal is a high level signal, the signal input to the and gate is two high level signals, so that the and gate outputs a high level start signal, and the start signal can control the grounding end of the second inverter to be electrically connected with the gate of the P-type power tube, thereby achieving the purpose of controlling the P-type power tube to be started.
A specific load switch operation process provided by the embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to fig. 8 and 9. Fig. 8 is a schematic structural diagram of another load switch for preventing reverse current according to an embodiment of the present invention, and fig. 9 is a schematic voltage diagram of a corresponding port of fig. 8; fig. 8 illustrates an example in which the load switch includes the comparator CMP, the Buffer, the first to fourth inverters INV1 to INV4, the And gate And, the P-type third transistor M3, the P-type fourth transistor M4, the enable signal being a high level signal, And the first level control signal being a high level signal, which are provided in the above embodiments; and the first inverter INV1 is electrically connected to the fourth transistor M4, the power supply terminal of the Buffer, the power supply terminal of the third inverter INV3, the power supply terminal of the fourth inverter INV4 And the power supply terminal of the And gate And are all electrically connected to the power supply voltage terminal IN, And the power supply terminal of the comparator CMP, the power supply terminal of the first inverter INV1 And the power supply terminal of the second inverter INV2 are all electrically connected to the substrate bulk of the P0.
When the load voltage Vout suddenly appears to be a pulse voltage higher than the power supply voltage, and the load voltage Vout is greater than the sum of the power supply voltage Vin and the first set voltage Vt1 (i.e., at the node S1 in fig. 9), the comparator CMP outputs a high-level first level control signal, which can control the third transistor M3 to turn off, and the first level control signal controls the fourth transistor M4 to turn on after being inverted by the first inverter INV1, so that the substrate bulk of the P-type power transistor P0 is electrically connected to the load terminal OUT. Meanwhile, the And Gate And an outputs a low-level turn-off signal, And the turn-off signal controls the substrate bulk of the P-type power tube P0 electrically connected with the power supply end of the third inverter INV3 to be electrically connected with the Gate of the P-type power tube P0, so that the Gate voltage Gate of the P-type power tube P0 is rapidly raised to the voltage at the substrate bulk, the P-type power tube P0 is turned off, And no current flows from the load end OUT to the power supply voltage end IN, thereby achieving the purpose of preventing the reverse flow of current.
The load voltage Vout continues to rise, the voltage of the substrate bulk and the Gate voltage of the P-type power tube P0 follow the load voltage Vout, and the P-type power tube P0 keeps being turned off; the load voltage Vout starts to drop until the load voltage Vout is less than the sum of the power voltage Vin and the second set voltage Vt2 (i.e., at the node S2 IN fig. 9), the comparator CMP outputs a low level second level control signal, which can control the third transistor M3 to turn on, and the second level control signal controls the fourth transistor M4 to turn off after being inverted by the first inverter INV1, so that the substrate bulk of the P-type power transistor P0 is electrically connected to the power voltage terminal IN. Meanwhile, the And Gate And ad outputs a high-level turn-on signal, which controls the ground GND of the third inverter INV3 to be electrically connected to the Gate of the P-type power transistor P0, so that the Gate voltage Gate of the P-type power transistor P0 starts to decrease, the P-type power transistor P0 starts to be turned on slowly, And the power supply voltage terminal IN is connected to the load terminal OUT for normally transmitting current.
And then keeping the state that the substrate bulk of the P-type power tube P0 is electrically connected with the power voltage terminal IN and the grid of the P-type power tube P0 is electrically connected with the ground terminal GND, and repeating the working process again until the load voltage Vout is greater than the sum of the power voltage Vin and the first set voltage Vt 1.
