Fig. 1 is the structural representation of the first embodiment of LDO protective circuit of the present utility model.
Fig. 2 is the structural representation of the second embodiment of LDO protective circuit of the present utility model.
Embodiment
Provide the utility model preferred embodiment below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, to describe the technical solution of the utility model in detail.
The first embodiment:
The protective circuit of LDO described in the present embodiment discharges by the discharge loop electric energy that the output of LDO is unnecessary with respect to the LDO input; thereby suppress output unnecessary electric energy is released into input by the parasitic diode in the LDO, thereby causes the damage of system in the LDO.
So as shown in Figure 1; the discharge loop 1 of the LDO protective circuit of present embodiment is electrically connected on the output end vo ut of described LDO; and described discharge loop is only at the voltage of described LDO output end vo ut during greater than the voltage on the described LDO input Vin, and the output end vo ut of described LDO is discharged.
So present embodiment can be at the voltage of the output end vo ut of described LDO during greater than the voltage of described LDO input Vin, effectively discharge the electric energy on the described LDO output end vo ut, thereby so that the voltage on the described LDO output end vo ut is all the time less than the voltage on the LDO input Vin, thereby between LDO output end vo ut and LDO input Vin, there is never the situation of current reflux.So protected the safety of LDO work.
The second embodiment:
Although the LDO protective circuit of the first embodiment discharges the situation of having removed current reflux between LDO output end vo ut and the LDO input Vin by the electric energy with LDO output end vo ut; but LDO output end vo ut without stint is discharged; can cause the rapidly decline of the upper voltage of Vout, thereby the electric energy that may cause rear end equipment to obtain is not enough.
So present embodiment, when the voltage of LDO output end vo ut during greater than LDO input Vin voltage, utilize the pressure drop between LDO output end vo ut and the LDO input Vin, by the switching characteristic of a diode D31, only LDO output end vo ut is released into ground with respect to the unnecessary electric energy of LDO input Vin.And also utilize the ground connection of the decoupling capacitor of described LDO input Vin in the present embodiment, just the electric energy of LDO output end vo ut is released into ground by diode.Thereby simplified the structure of protective circuit, and be convenient to realize, but also reduced significantly cost.
Therefore as shown in Figure 2; the protective circuit of LDO described in the present embodiment mainly is made of described diode D31; the input Vin of wherein said LDOU30 is by a decoupling capacitor C336 ground connection; the output end vo ut of described LDOU30 is also by a filter capacitor C334 ground connection; the output end vo ut of described LDOU30 is electrically connected with the anode of described diode D31, and the input Vin of described LDOU30 is connected with the cathodic electricity of described diode D31.
LDOU30 described in the present embodiment is the APL1117-VC chip of Anpec Electronics Corporation.Wherein as shown in Figure 2, the device of other of present embodiment has consisted of the required match circuit of APL1117-VC chip normal operation jointly, so give unnecessary details no longer in detail herein.
In the present embodiment, described decoupling capacitor C336 can limited inhibition input Vin burr and noise, voltage ripple with assurance input Vin is very little, and raising Systems balanth, generally speaking, preferably use the ESR(equivalent series resistance) electric capacity that value is little, this is owing to larger electric current is arranged by described decoupling capacitor C336 during LDO work, and ESR value is understood the operating efficiency that affect chip.When pcb board connects up, require decoupling capacitor and input Vin as far as possible little with the loop of the pin on ground.If so use electrochemical capacitor, just can from LDO away from, meanwhile preferably add the close LDO of an electric capacity in parallel with it.
The output end vo ut of described LDO meets filter capacitor C334 and carries out filtering, thereby guarantees the stable of output voltage, and so that described LDO has good dynamic response.For less output voltage ripple, preferably choose the less electric capacity of ESR simultaneously.When pcb board connects up, require filter capacitor C334 to be close to the Vout pin of described LDO equally, thereby make the output current loop of LDO minimum.Described filter capacitor C334 also can use electrochemical capacitor in addition.
Realize the switch conduction of the input VIn of the output end vo ut of LDO and LDO in the present embodiment with the MMBD4148 diode of fairchild company.Can adopt in addition other switch element to realize the switch conduction of the input VIn of the output end vo ut of LDO and LDO, as long as the switch element that adopts is when the voltage of the output of described LDO during greater than the voltage of the input of described LDO, can so that consist of the galvanic circle between the input of described LDO and the output, just can be used for substituting the diode D31 in the present embodiment.
In the present embodiment when the situations such as system power supply shutoff occur, the voltage of the output end vo ut of described LDO is greater than the voltage of the input VIn of described LDO at this moment, this moment is according to the characteristic of diode D31, described diode D31 conducting, so the filter capacitor C334 of output end vo ut discharge, this moment, electric current flowed to the input Vin of LDO from the output end vo ut of described LDO.Therefore the electric weight that is stored on the filter capacitor C334 discharges by diode D31, and by decoupling capacitor C336, finally releases on the ground.Therefore the electric weight on the filter capacitor C334 of LDO output end vo ut can not pour in down a chimney in LDO, thereby can protect LDO not damage.
So the LDO protective circuit of present embodiment is utilized the earth terminal of the filter capacitor of LDO input Vin, by diode D31 LDO output end vo ut is released into ground with respect to the unnecessary electric energy of LDO input Vin.So when having avoided LDO output end vo ut transition discharged; also effectively suppressed the current reflux between LDO output end vo ut and the LDO input Vin; have more simple structure and with low cost with respect to special protective circuit in addition, be convenient to realize.
Although more than described embodiment of the present utility model, it will be understood by those of skill in the art that these only illustrate, protection range of the present utility model is limited by appended claims.Those skilled in the art can make various changes or modifications to these execution modes under the prerequisite that does not deviate from principle of the present utility model and essence, but these changes and modification all fall into protection range of the present utility model.
