Abstract
A converter may include a transformer, an overcurrent protection switch configured to be installed at a primary side of the transformer to prevent an overcurrent, a comparator configured to detect a voltage of the overcurrent protection switch to convert the detected voltage into an output current sensing value and compare the output current sensing value with a reference value, and a protection controller configured to normally operate or forcibly turn off the overcurrent protection switch depending on a comparison result of the comparator.
Claims16
A converter, comprising:
- a transformer;
- an overcurrent protection switch configured to be installed at a primary side of the transformer to prevent an overcurrent;
- a comparator configured to detect a voltage of the overcurrent protection switch to convert the detected voltage into an output current sensing value and compare the output current sensing value with a reference value;
- and
- a protection controller configured to normally operate or forcibly turn off the overcurrent protection switch depending on a comparison result of the comparator.

A method for controlling a converter, comprising:
- detecting a voltage of an overcurrent protection switch installed at a primary side of a transformer to prevent an overcurrent;
- converting, by a comparator, the detected voltage into an output current sensing value and compare the output current sensing value with a reference value;
- and
- normally operating or forcibly turning off, by a protection controller, the overcurrent protection switch depending on a comparison result of the comparator.
