    摘要: A zero-crossing detection circuit includes a logic unit and an input stop detection unit. The logic unit is configured to estimate a zero cross of an AC signal in accordance with at least one of a first monitoring target signal and a second monitoring target signal, respectively input through diodes from a first node and a second node between which the AC signal is applied, so as to generate a zero-crossing detection signal. The input stop detection unit is configured to compare the first monitoring target signal with the second monitoring target signal after giving an offset to one of them so as to generate an input stop detection signal. The logic unit is configured to fix a logic level of the zero-crossing detection signal in accordance with the input stop detection signal.

    摘要: A charging apparatus includes a first terminal, a second terminal, a switch unit, a control unit, and a communication unit. The switch unit is turned on or turned off to control whether the first terminal is coupled to the second terminal. The control unit sets a first time from the switch unit receiving a control signal to the switch unit actually being turned on or turned off. The control unit and the electric vehicle mutually transmit a communication signal through the communication unit. The control unit calculates a second time when the current reaches to a zero point based on an abnormal state indicated by the communication signal, and calculates a third time when the switch unit operates at the zero point based on the first time and the second time, and provides the control signal to turn off the switch unit at the third time.
