It should be noted that the first switching tube Q1 is an NPN-type triode, and the second switching tube Q2 is a PNP-type triode. When the power output terminal Vout is over-voltage, the NPN transistor may be turned on, so that the PNP transistor is turned on, i.e., the connection between the switch maintaining circuit 22 and the power input terminal Vin is disconnected, thereby controlling the first switch circuit 10 to be turned off, so as to disconnect the electrical connection between the power input terminal Vin and the power output terminal Vout; when the output voltage of the power output terminal Vout returns to normal, the NPN type transistor is turned off, so that the PNP type transistor is turned off, i.e., the switch holding circuit 22 is connected to the power input terminal Vin, thereby controlling the first switch circuit 10 to be turned on, so as to electrically connect the power input terminal Vin and the power output terminal Vout, and controlling the on/off between the power input terminal Vin and the power output terminal Vout through the overvoltage turn-off circuit 21.

The reference voltage circuit 30 may be implemented by a zener diode Z1 or a three-terminal regulator. In this embodiment, the reference voltage circuit 30 is implemented by a zener diode Z1, and compared with a three-terminal regulator, the circuit is simpler and has lower cost. It is worth noting that a current limiting resistor R5 is arranged at the output end of the zener diode Z1 to protect the zener diode Z1 and avoid burning out due to overvoltage.
In this embodiment, under the condition that the input voltage of the power input terminal Vin is smaller than the reference voltage value, since the output voltage of the power output terminal Vout is always smaller than the reference voltage value, the overvoltage shutdown circuit 21 is always in the off state, that is, the first switch circuit 10 is still in the fully on state, and finally the output voltage of the power output terminal Vout is equal to the input voltage of the power input terminal Vin; under the condition that the input voltage of the power input end Vin is greater than the reference voltage value, because the output voltage of the power output end Vout is greater than the reference voltage value, the overvoltage shutdown circuit 21 is in a conducting state, thereby disconnecting the connection between the switch maintaining circuit 22 and the power input end Vin, i.e. controlling the first switch circuit 10 to be turned off, so as to disconnect the electrical connection between the power input end Vin and the power output end Vout, and then the output voltage of the power output end Vout begins to drop until the output voltage of the power output end Vout is less than the reference voltage value, the overvoltage shutdown circuit 21 is in a disconnecting state, i.e. the first switch circuit 10 is turned on, so as to connect the electrical connection between the power input end Vin and the power output end Vout, high-amplitude and long-time high-energy pulses are effectively removed through the reference voltage circuit 30 to realize overvoltage protection, and the output voltage of the power output end Vout is maintained within the reference voltage range, so as to provide a linear voltage close to the electronic device, so as to avoid generating electromagnetic interference.
Referring to fig. 2 and 3, in an embodiment, the linear overvoltage protection circuit further includes a voltage stabilizing circuit 40, the voltage stabilizing circuit 40 is serially connected between the switch maintaining circuit 22 and the first switch circuit 10, and the voltage stabilizing circuit 40 is configured to stabilize an input voltage at the power input terminal Vin and output the stabilized voltage.
The voltage regulator circuit 40 may be implemented by any voltage regulator circuit 40 capable of regulating the voltage of the input power, such as a zener diode.
In the present embodiment, the voltage regulator 40 is disposed between the switch maintaining circuit 22 and the first switch circuit 10, and outputs the input voltage after performing voltage regulation processing, so as to protect the first switch circuit 10, i.e. protect the GS electrode of the PMOS transistor Q3, and avoid the PMOS transistor Q3 from being burned out due to overvoltage.
With the above embodiments, the inventive concept of the present invention is explained, in case one, the input voltage of the power input terminal Vin is less than the circuit working condition of the regulated voltage value of the zener diode Z1: when power-on is started, vr voltage is 0V, the first switch tube Q1 is in a cut-off state, the second switch tube Q2 is also in a cut-off state, the first resistor R1 and the second resistor R2 form a voltage division circuit, and the voltage divided by the first resistor R1 is larger than the starting voltage of a PMOS tube Q3GS electrode, so that the PMOS tube Q3 is conducted, and the output voltage of a power output end Vout starts to rise. Because the input voltage Vin is smaller than the regulated voltage value of the zener diode Z1, the first switch Q1 and the second switch Q2 still work in the off state, the PMOS transistor Q3 still works in the fully on state, and finally the working voltage of the electronic device is equal to the input voltage of the power input terminal Vin.
In case two, the circuit operating condition that the input voltage of the power input terminal Vin is greater than the regulated voltage value of the zener diode Z1 is as follows: when power-on is started, vr voltage is 0V, the first switch tube Q1 is in a cut-off state, the second switch tube Q2 is also in a cut-off state, the first resistor R1 and the second resistor R2 form a voltage division circuit, and the voltage divided by the first resistor R1 is larger than the starting voltage of a Q3GS electrode of the PMOS tube, so that the PMOS tube Q3 is conducted, and the output voltage of a Vout of the power supply output end begins to rise; when the output voltage of the power output terminal Vout is greater than the regulated voltage value of the zener diode Z1 and the Vr voltage is greater than 0.7V, the first switch tube Q1 is in a conducting state, the second switch tube Q2 is also in a conducting state, and since the second switch tube Q2 is conducting, the voltage of the first resistor R1 is 0V, that is, the voltage of the gate of the PMOS transistor Q3GS is less than the turn-on voltage of the PMOS transistor Q3, and the PMOS transistor Q3 is turned off. The PMOS tube Q3 is disconnected, the output voltage of the power output end Vout begins to drop, vr voltage also drops along with the drop, when the Vr voltage is smaller than 0.7V, the first switch tube Q1 is in a cut-off state, the second switch tube Q2 is also in a cut-off state, the voltage of the first resistor R1 is larger than the starting voltage of the GS electrode of the PMOS tube Q3, the PMOS tube Q3 is conducted again, the output voltage of the power output end Vout begins to rise, and the operation is repeated in a cycle, so that the output voltage of the power output end Vout is always kept near the voltage stabilizing value range of the voltage stabilizing diode Z1, and the electronic equipment can work at stable voltage.
The Vr voltage is a voltage at the positive terminal of the zener diode Z1. After the PMOS tube Q3 is disconnected, when the output voltage of the power output end Vout is smaller than the regulated voltage value of the voltage regulator diode Z1, the PMOS tube Q3 is conducted again, so that the output voltage of the power output end Vout is always kept near the regulated voltage value range of the voltage regulator diode Z1, and the output voltage of the power output end Vout is not a square wave but is a linear voltage close to linearity, so that the generation of electromagnetic interference is avoided.
In conclusion, the linear overvoltage protection circuit can effectively remove high-amplitude and long-time high-energy pulses, so that overvoltage protection is performed on electronic equipment.
