Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent the burning of a resistor due to the short-circuit fault of a converter without a fuse by composing the title preventive circuit of an auxiliary power simultaneously driving a positive temperature coefficient thermistor (PTC), a voltage detector, an FET for short-circuiting the PTC and the converter. CONSTITUTION:A principal section is constituted of a power supply 1, an input capacitor 2, an auxiliary power 3, a converter 4, a PTC 5, a voltage detector 6, an FET 7 for short-circuiting the PTC, a switch for closing, etc. When short- circuit fault is generated in the converter 4, the operation of the FET 7 is stopped. Supply voltage is applied to the PTC 5, but a resistance value is increased by the characteristics of the PTC 5, and currents are stopped.
