An overcurrent protection circuit for use in a power supply system to control switching on of the circuit. The circuit is connected between a voltage source and a load. A current sensing resistor senses the current flowing to the load and a pair of thermally coupled transistor switches detect a predetermined voltage drop across the current sensing resistor when the current in the current sensing resistor exceeds a first threshold. A control switch limits the power delivered to the load from the voltage source when the pair of transistor switches detecting the predetermined voltage drop.

摘要:
A current detection resistance such as a metal resistance is formed in series with a power transistor, and in response to an output voltage of the current detection resistance, an overcurrent protective circuit performs an overcurrent suppressing operation with high accuracy without being affected by irregularity of a current multiplication factor, etc.; thus, it is possible to realize a smaller chip area so as to reduce the cost. Furthermore, a short-circuit protective circuit returns a terminal voltage of a referenced resistance, that appears in accordance with a partial pressure value of an output voltage, at the transistor, a partial pressure resistance, and a current mirror circuit. And the short-circuit protective circuit controls a potential of a base resistance and suppresses a base current. Hence, it is not necessary to dispose the transistor for suppressing a current between base lines, so that a low-voltage operation can be realized. In a direct-current stabilization power supply device having a two-chip structure of a PNP power transistor and a control IC, it is possible to achieve a smaller chip area and a low-voltage operation.

摘要:
The regulated output voltage of a voltage regulator is maintained up to a current limit, Ilimit, then as the load impedance continues to decrease the output current does not increase past the current limit, Ilimit, but rather the output voltage decreases forcing the output current to also decrease to satisfy Ohm's Law: IOUT=VOUT/ZLoad. When the output voltage drops below the regulated voltage value because of current limiting the voltage regulator shifts from a current limit mode to a current foldback mode wherein the output current decreases with the decrease in output voltage until the output current reaches a current foldback minimum, Ifoldback, at an output voltage of substantially zero volts. As the load impedance increases so will the output voltage and current until the output voltage is back at substantially the regulation voltage value, and the output current is less than or equal to the current limit, Ilimit.

摘要:
Apparatus disclosed herein implement a fast transient precision current limiter such as may be included in an electronic voltage regulator. The current limiter includes two current sense element/current clamp control loops. A fast response time control loop first engages and clamps a current spike. A precision control loop then engages to more accurately clamp the output current to a programmed set point. The precision clamping loop includes an inner loop to linearize the precision current sense element. The inner loop forces the drain-to-source voltage (VDS) of the precision sense element to track the VDS of the regulator pass element. A more precise clamping operation results. Overall speed is not sacrificed as the fast response time clamping loop operates in parallel to protect circuitry while the precision clamping loop engages.
