Particularly, delay time is set in described time delay module 17, in the present embodiment, described setting delay time is t2, if the time that described comparative result aocp is high level exceedes described setting delay time t2, then trigger under-voltage protection signal uvlo, enter under-voltage locking state; If the time that described comparative result aocp is high level does not exceed described setting delay time t2, then trigger inductance short-circuit protection, described power switch pipe M0 is turned off.
In the present embodiment; described electric capacity C1 and described sampling resistor Rcs is the outer device of sheet; one end that described sampling resistor Rcs is connected with source and the described first resistance R1 of described power switch pipe M0 as the reference ground of chip internal, i.e. reference the ground GND of described inductance short-circuit protection circuit.
The operation principle of inductance short-circuit protection circuit of the present utility model is as follows:
When inductance L 0 short circuit, in inductor loop, electric current increases instantaneously, described inductance L 0 increases instantaneously to the sample rate current in the path with reference to ground (GND or VSS), sampled point (input of described sampling resistor Rcs) diminishes with the pressure reduction of supply voltage VDD, the then cut-off signals latch onset when the pressure reduction of described sampled point and described supply voltage VDD is less than a reference voltage Vref, described inductance L 0 disconnects to the path with reference to ground by described cut-off signals latch, and then realize the protection of inductance short circuit, described cut-off signals latch is invalid after continuing setting timing time t1, described inductor loop normally works.
The time that the pressure reduction of described sampled point and described supply voltage VDD is less than described reference voltage Vref exceedes and sets delay time t2 and then trigger under-voltage protection signal uvlo, and control circuit enters under-voltage locking state.
Particularly, as shown in Figure 3, after short trouble appears in described inductance L 0, described power switch pipe M0 is once open, flow through described power switch pipe M0, described sampling resistor Rcs electric current by abrupt transients to maximum, the pressure drop on described sampling resistor Rcs will increase instantaneously.As shown in Figure 4; because the reference ground GND of described inductance short-circuit protection circuit is connected with described sampling resistor Rcs; the current potential of the reference ground GND of described inductance short-circuit protection circuit is elevated, and now described supply voltage VDD reduces relative to the current potential of the reference ground GND of described inductance short-circuit protection circuit.
As shown in Fig. 3 ~ Fig. 4, in the present embodiment, described sampling resistor R0, R1 sample VDD current potential, sample, and compare with described reference voltage Vref with this pressure reduction to described sampled point and described supply voltage VDD.In the t0 moment, the level after described supply voltage VDD dividing potential drop is lower than described reference voltage Vref, and the comparative result aocp that described comparison module 12 exports overturns as high level, exports the cut-off signals latch of high level and lock through described trigger module 13.The cut-off signals latch of high level through described switch control logic module 15 output low level signal, and produces drive singal drv by described driver module 16, and described in the low level control of described drive singal drv, power switch pipe M0 turns off.Described power switch pipe M0 closes and has no progeny, and no current flows through described sampling resistor Rcs, and the current potential of the reference ground GND of described inductance short-circuit protection circuit reduces.
Described supply voltage VDD recovers relative to the current potential of the reference ground GND of described inductance short-circuit protection circuit afterwards, and it is low level that described comparative result aocp is overturn by high level.Due to the locking of described trigger module 13, described cut-off signals latch still keeps high level, and therefore described power switch pipe M0 continues to turn off.As shown in Figure 4, when described cut-off signals latch is high level, described timing module 14 starts timing, timing time outputs signal reset after continuing t1 be high level pulse signal, unlock rest-set flip-flop, described cut-off signals latch lost efficacy (low level), and the switching function of described power switch pipe M0 recovers, i.e. current constant control.
As shown in Figure 4; if described comparative result aocp turns over as after high level, the duration exceedes the setting delay time t2 in described time delay module 17, then described under-voltage protection signal uvlo overturns as high level; namely enter under-voltage locking state, reset re-powers by system.If described comparative result aocp reverts to low level in described setting delay time t2; then described under-voltage protection signal uvlo maintains low level, is namely in non-under-voltage locking state, system worked well; only trigger short-circuit protection mechanism, turn off described power switch pipe M0.
Relative to the under-voltage duration of GND, inductance short-circuit protection circuit of the present utility model, by detecting the pressure reduction between the supply voltage VDD of described inductance short-circuit protection circuit and reference ground GND, judges that controller enters under-voltage locking state or inductance short-circuit protection state according to VDD.If there is the under-voltage burr of of short duration VDD in setting delay time, trigger inductance short-circuit protection; If VDD is under-voltage, the duration exceedes setting delay time, then controller enters under-voltage locking state.Thus ensureing that inductance short-circuit protection mechanism triggers before under-voltage locking state, reliably switch-off power switching tube M0 in time, guarantees the normal work of inductance place circuit, avoids inductance short trouble to the damage of device.
In sum, the utility model provides a kind of inductance short-circuit protection circuit, and described inductance short-circuit protection circuit at least comprises: for realizing the power switch pipe of inductance short-circuit protection; For the sampling resistor of sampling to the output current of described power switch pipe; For the voltage sample module of sampling to the change in voltage on described sampling resistor; For being compared with described reference voltage by sampled voltage, and export the comparison module of comparative result; For sending the cut-off signals of described power switch pipe when described sampled voltage is less than described reference voltage and latching, the trigger module after the timing time of timing module setting, described cut-off signals unlocked; Open shutoff sequential for what determine described power switch pipe, and then control the switch control logic module of switch of described power switch pipe.Relative to the under-voltage duration of GND, inductance short-circuit protection circuit of the present utility model, by detecting the pressure reduction between the supply voltage VDD of described inductance short-circuit protection circuit and reference ground GND, judges that controller enters under-voltage locking state or inductance short-circuit protection state according to VDD.If there is the under-voltage burr of of short duration VDD in setting delay time, trigger inductance short-circuit protection; If VDD is under-voltage, the duration exceedes setting delay time, then controller enters under-voltage locking state.Thus ensureing that inductance short-circuit protection mechanism triggers before under-voltage locking state, reliably switch-off power switching tube M0 in time, guarantees the normal work of inductance place circuit, avoids inductance short trouble to the damage of device.So the utility model effectively overcomes various shortcoming of the prior art and tool high industrial utilization.
