A protection circuit for an LED driver and a DC/DC converter. The LED driver includes a DC/DC converter and a protection circuit. The DC/DC converter is used to convert the input voltage of the DC voltage input terminal into an output voltage, which comprises a high frequency switch and an inductor. The protection circuit comprises a detection module, a trigger module and a locking module. The detection module is coupled to the inductor for detecting the output voltage and outputting the voltage detection signal. The trigger module is used to receive the voltage detection signal and output a voltage trigger signal when the voltage detection signal is a negative voltage and the absolute value of the negative voltage is greater than or equal to the preset value. The locking module is coupled to the trigger module and stops the high frequency switch from operating after receiving the voltage trigger signal.
An LED driver, comprising:
A DC/DC converter protection circuit, wherein the DC/DC converter is used to convert an input voltage at a DC voltage input terminal into an output voltage, the DC/DC converter comprising a high frequency switch and a first inductor, and wherein the protection circuit comprises:
