    Abstract: A switch device includes a switching element that connects/disconnects a current path from a power supply terminal to a ground terminal via a load, and an overcurrent protection circuit that limits output current flowing in the switching element to be an overcurrent limit value or less. When an output short circuit of the load is detected, the overcurrent protection circuit decreases the overcurrent limit value to be lower as a power supply voltage is higher. In addition, the switch device preferably includes a switching element that connects/disconnects a current path from a power supply terminal to a ground terminal via a load, an intermittent control unit that intermittently drives the switching element when an abnormality is detected, and an output voltage monitoring portion that disables the intermittent control unit until an output voltage applied to the load reaches its target value.

    Abstract: An overcurrent protection circuit that limits a current to be monitored based on a current limit signal includes: a first transistor and a second transistor configured to form an amplifier input stage that receives input of a detection signal according to the current to be monitored; a third transistor configured to generate a current output signal according to a difference between the detection signal and a reference signal, and configured to form an amplifier output stage that inputs the current output signal as a negative feedback to the amplifier input stage; and a current mirror circuit configured to generate the current limit signal by replicating a signal based on the current output signal.

    Abstract: An overcurrent protection circuit, for example, comprises: an overcurrent detection unit configured to compare monitoring target current and an overcurrent detection threshold value; a current interruption unit configured to interrupt the monitoring target current when the monitoring target current reaches the overcurrent detection threshold value; an interruption cancellation unit configured to cancel the interruption of the monitoring target current at the elapse of a first time after the monitoring target current has reached the overcurrent detection threshold value; and a threshold control unit configured to lower the overcurrent detection threshold value at the elapse of the first time after the monitoring target current has reached the overcurrent detection threshold value.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein is an overcurrent protection circuit configured to, upon detection of an output current that flows through a switch element reaching a first overcurrent limit value, reduce an overcurrent limit value for the output current from the first overcurrent limit value to a second overcurrent limit value smaller than the first overcurrent limit value.
