The resistors R1 and R2 are connected in series to sample the main power VCC voltage, R1>>R2, the gate voltage of the pfet MP1 is small, VCC R2/(R1+ R2), so when | VDS is satisfiedMP1|<<2(|VGSMP1|-|VTHPI) condition, P-FET MP1 operates in the deep linear region with drain current IDMP1The characteristic tends to follow | VGSMP1The | voltage is linear:
IDMP1≈up*Cox*(W/L)*(|VGSMP1|-|VTHP|)*|VDSMP1| …………………………………(1)
wherein u ispIn P-type field effect transistorThe carrier mobility of (1) is Cox is unit area gate oxide layer capacitance, W and L are grid width and length of P-type field effect transistor, | VGSMP1| is the absolute value of the gate-source voltage, | VTH of the P-type field effect transistor MP1PI is the absolute value of the threshold voltage of the P-type field effect transistor, | VDSMP1And | is the source-drain power supply absolute value of the P-type field effect transistor MP 1.

The following describes a schematic relationship between the voltage and the current of the overcurrent protection circuit, as shown in fig. 2: the main power VCC is a chip main power, and power supply voltages are different along with different chip applications. The VDD is a regulated VDD, which is a constant voltage, and supplies power to the internal functional module of the chip. The IMP3 is the source-drain current of the P-type field effect transistor MP3, the value of the source-drain current is in a proportional relation with the source-drain current of the P-type field effect transistor MP1, the value of the source-drain current is equal to the source-drain current of the N-type field effect transistor MN3, and the change of the power supply voltage of the main power supply VCC is reflected. Under the condition that a stable power supply VDD is stable, along with the increase of a main power supply VCC power supply voltage, the current of IMP3 is reduced, the source-drain current of an N-type field effect transistor MN3 is also reduced, and through the fact that the product of the drain current of the N-type field effect transistor MN6 and a parasitic resistor Rsen is smaller than the product relation of the drain current of an N-type field effect transistor MN3 and a resistor R3, the fact that the overcurrent protection point of the whole chip also changes in proportion along with IMP3 can be obtained, and the method is shown in FIG. 2. Therefore, when the voltage of the main power VCC power supply rises, the over-current protection point Ilimit of the whole chip is reduced; when the voltage of a main power VCC power supply is reduced, the over-current protection point Ilimit of the whole chip is increased, so that the function of self-adjusting the over-current protection point of the chip along with the size of the power supply voltage is realized.
