Input protection circuit

Abstract

An input protection circuit includes a current detection circuit, a voltage detection circuit, a latch circuit and an output circuit. The current detection circuit receives a power input, and when an input current exceeds a threshold current, the current detection circuit outputs a control current. The voltage detection circuit is coupled to the current detection circuit, and when the input voltage exceeds a threshold voltage, the voltage detection circuit outputs a control voltage. The latch circuit is coupled to the current detection circuit and the voltage detection circuit. When the latch circuit receives the control voltage or the control current, a switching voltage outputted by the latch circuit is equal to a reference voltage. The output circuit is coupled to the current detection circuit, the voltage detection circuit and the latch circuit. When the switching voltage is equal to the reference voltage, the output circuit stops outputting a power output.
