The utility model provides a clamp switch tube abnormity detection circuit, please refer to fig. 2, the active clamp flyback circuit includes clamp switch tube MSA, main switch tube M1 and transformer T1; when the clamp switch tube control signal HI is valid, the clamp switch tube abnormality detection circuit 200 detects the switch node voltage VSWOr the voltage V on the auxiliary windingAUXOr exciting inductor current iLMWhen the switch node voltage VSWOr the voltage V on the auxiliary windingAUXOr exciting inductor current iLMOscillating, or switching, node voltage VSWLess than a first voltage threshold or a voltage V across the auxiliary windingAUXWhen the voltage is smaller than the second voltage threshold, the clamp switching tube abnormality detection circuit 200 judges that the clamp switching tube is abnormal or the clamp switching tube driving circuit is abnormal; the switch node VSWIs the common node of the transformer T1 and the main switching tube M1; the transformer T1 comprises a primary winding Np, a secondary winding Ns and an auxiliary winding Naux, and the voltage V on the auxiliary windingAUXObtaining feedback voltage after voltage divisionVFB. Due to the voltage V on the auxiliary windingAUXThe voltage sampling of the clamp switching tube abnormality detection circuit is generally low voltage, for example, lower than 5V, so that a voltage division mode is generally adopted, and a feedback voltage V is adoptedFBTo characterize the voltage V across the auxiliary windingAUX
FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of another method for detecting the voltage of the auxiliary winding; due to the feedback voltage VFBA negative voltage is reached and it is more convenient for the clamp switch tube abnormality detection circuit 200 to detect a positive voltage than a negative voltage. Therefore, another way to detect the voltage on the auxiliary winding is to connect the auxiliary winding to the clamp switch tube abnormality detection circuit 200 through the resistor RFB3, connect the resistor RFB3 to one end of the clamp switch tube abnormality detection circuit 200 for clamping, generally to a positive voltage, by detecting the current I on the resistor RFB3FBThe voltage on the auxiliary winding can be detected.

Due to the voltage V on the auxiliary windingAUX=(VSWVin) ((Np/Naux), so the determination can also be made by detecting the feedback voltage or current to derive the voltage on the auxiliary winding. Referring to FIG. 6, when the clamp switch or the clamp switch driving circuit is usedWhen the circuit is abnormal, when the control signal of the clamping switch tube is effective before the main switch tube is conducted, the clamping switch tube is conducted, the voltage of the switch node can continue to oscillate, and the feedback voltage also continues to oscillate.
When Q is 1, namely the voltage of a switching node in one switching period is only required to be smaller than a first voltage threshold, or the voltage on the auxiliary winding is smaller than a second voltage threshold, the output voltage of the clamping switching tube abnormity judgment circuit is effective, and the clamping switching tube or the clamping switching tube driving circuit is judged to be abnormal; otherwise, the output voltage of the clamp switch tube abnormity judging circuit is invalid, and the clamp switch tube driving circuit are judged to be normal.
