Electronic device with function of protection against abnormal charging

A charger, comprising:

• a charging unit;
• a breaker, coupled to the charging unit, being activated to brake a circuit while a current flowing therethrough exceeds a default current value of the breaker;
• and
• a switcher, having an end coupled to the breaker and another end grounded, being activated to a short circuit state for directing the current to the ground and enabling the current to be larger than the default current value while the switcher detects an abnormal status.

An electronic device, being charged by a charger, comprising:

• a battery;
• a protection unit for the charger, further comprising:
• a first breaker, coupled to the charger, being activated to brake a circuit while a first current flowing therethrough exceeds a specific first current value of the first breaker;
• and
• a first switcher, having an end coupled to the first breaker and another end grounded, being activated to a short circuit state for directing the first current to the ground and enabling the first current to be larger than the specific first current value while the first switcher detects a first abnormal status.
• a protection unit for the battery, further comprising
• a second breaker, coupled to the battery, being activated to brake a circuit while a second current flowing therethrough exceeds a specific second current value of the second breaker;
• and
• a second switcher, having an end coupled to the second breaker and another end grounded, being activated to a short circuit state for directing the second current to the ground and enabling the second current to be larger than the specific second current value while the second switcher detects a second abnormal status.
