Title:
OVERCURRENT PROTECTION CIRCUIT
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2018026963
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To ensure both momentary current securing and safety improvement.SOLUTION: An overcurrent protection circuit 71 has a current control section 110 for controlling conductivity of a transistor so as to limit an output current, flowing while the transistor is turned ON, below a predetermined upper limit value, and a duty control section 120 starting to turn the transistor ON/OFF forcibly at a predetermined duty ratio Don, when a temperature protection circuit detects temperature abnormality (S73=H) in a state where the current control section 110 is limiting the output current (S110=H). The current control section 110 compares a sense voltage Vs according to the output current with a threshold voltage according to the upper limit value, and generates a first overcurrent protection signal S71a for controlling the conductivity of the transistor, and a state notification signal S110 for notifying the duty control section 120 of the state that itself is limiting the output current.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5
