Abstract:
The invention discloses a transient voltage detection circuit suitable for an electronic system. The electronic system includes a high voltage line and a low voltage line. The transient voltage detection circuit includes at least one detection circuit and a judge module. Each detection circuit includes a P-typed transistor and/or an N-typed transistor, a capacitor and a detection node. The transistor is coupled with the capacitor, and the detection node is located between the transistor and the capacitor. The judge module is coupled to each of the detection nodes. The judge module generates a judgment according to voltage levels of the detection nodes. Accordingly, the transient voltage detection circuit is formed. The electronic system may selectively execute a protective action according to the judgment.
