For the converter circuit, although temperature protection can be realized by means of a temperature detection circuit inside the control chip, the highest temperature of the system does not exist in the control chip, but exists in the power tube; therefore, the actual effect of temperature detection inside the control chip is not good.
To this end, the present embodiment provides a temperature protection method based on pin (also referred to as pin bit) multiplexing, and provides a circuit based on pin multiplexing. The circuit based on pin multiplexing of the present embodiment is a switching converter circuit, such as a flyback converter circuit (or referred to as a flyback power adapter circuit).
The circuit based on pin multiplexing of the present embodiment can implement the temperature protection method based on pin multiplexing of the present embodiment.
Referring to fig. 2, the circuit based on pin multiplexing of the present embodiment includes a power tube 1, a control chip 2, and a temperature coefficient temperature detection sub-circuit 3. The power tube 1 is a primary power tube of the flyback converter circuit.
Referring to fig. 2, the control chip 2 is provided with six pins, which are a driving output pin OUT, a pin VCC, a pin CS, a pin GND, a pin FB, and a pin VMS, respectively.
The temperature coefficient temperature detection sub-circuit 3 and the grid of the power tube 1 are multiplexed to control the driving output pin OUT of the chip 2. Specifically, one end of the temperature coefficient temperature detection sub-circuit 3 and the gate of the power tube 1 are connected to the driving output pin OUT of the control chip 2; the other end of the temperature coefficient temperature detection sub-circuit 3 is grounded.
The temperature coefficient temperature detection sub-circuit 3 is at least provided with a temperature coefficient thermistor of which the resistance changes along with the temperature change. In the present embodiment, the temperature coefficient temperature detection sub-circuit 3 is a temperature coefficient thermistor, wherein the temperature is detected by the temperature coefficient temperature detection sub-circuitThe Coefficient of Temperature thermistor is Negative Temperature Coefficient (NTC) thermistor RNTC. Negative temperature coefficient thermistor RNTCIs arranged outside the control chip 2. In other embodiments, the temperature coefficient thermistor is a positive temperature coefficient thermistor.

Thus, the temperature coefficient temperature detection sub-circuit 3 can detect the real-time driving output current I of the driving output pin OUTgate. Since the temperature coefficient temperature detection sub-circuit 3 is temperature dependent, when the temperature changes the temperature coefficient temperature detection sub-circuit 3, the real-time driving output current of the driving output pin OUT also changes.
