Abstract: A power apparatus, a current detecting circuit and a current detecting method are provided. The power apparatus includes a power conversion circuit and the current detecting circuit. The power conversion circuit generates an output current. The current detecting circuit includes first and second current sensing resistors and a control circuit. The first current sensing resistor and the second current sensing resistor sense the output current to generate first and second sensing voltage, respectively. The control circuit receives the first sensing voltage and the second sensing voltage, and converts the first sensing voltage and the second sensing voltage respectively into a first current sensing value and a second current sensing value. The control circuit triggers a protection mechanism when the first current sensing value is greater than a first overcurrent protection value. In the case where the first current sensing value is not greater than the first overcurrent protection value, the control circuit triggers the protection mechanism if the second current sensing value is greater than a second overcurrent protection value. The first overcurrent protection value is greater than the second overcurrent protection value.

Abstract: A charging device and a safety function control circuit and method thereof are provided. When a charging device is not connected to a load, a converted voltage value of a power connection terminal of the charging device is kept to be lower than a safe voltage value so as to maintain a safe mode. The safety function control circuit includes a first control module and a second control module for constant voltage control. The first control module and the second control module perform matching control on a power conversion circuit of the charging device, and in case of a single fault of one of the control modules, the other module is still capable of keeping the converted voltage value to be less than the safe voltage value. Thus, it is ensured that the safe mode stays functional in case of a concurrency of both a single hardware fault and a single firmware fault.
