It should be noted that when the voltage on the output OT produces the phenomenon of fast rise or decline fast the capacitor C 1 that is coupled to output OT can produce a pulse signal up or down at its second end because of the election effect of electric capacity.The amplitude of this pulse signal can decide in response to the late effect that the slope of the decline of the voltage on the output OT or rising and capacitor C 1 and resistance R 1 provide.That is to say when producing non-zero voltage switching phenomenon, will have periodic a plurality of downward pulse signals that upwards reach on the non-zero voltage testing result NZR that non-zero voltage detector 230 produces.And the time point that non-zero voltage are switched phenomenons can take place no better than half-bridge driver 220 in the time point of generation pulse signal.

Below please refer to Fig. 3 A, Fig. 3 A is the schematic diagram of the half-bridge driven device 300 of yet another embodiment of the invention.Half-bridge driven device 300 comprises controller 310, half-bridge driver 320, non-zero voltage detector 330, resonant circuit 340, charge pump circuit 350 and guard signal generator 360.300 in half-bridge driven device is made of transistor M1 and M2.Inequality with aforesaid embodiment, the half-bridge driven device 300 of present embodiment also comprises guard signal generator 360.Wherein, guard signal generator 360 is coupled to non-zero voltage detector 330 and receives the non-zero voltage testing result NZR that non-zero voltage detector 330 produces, and produces protection enable signal PRTEN whether to have according to the amplitude of judging non-zero voltage testing result NZR greater than preset critical VREF.
Guard signal generator 360 comprises comparator C OMP and latch unit 361.Comparator C OMP couples non-zero voltage detector 330, and compares at non-zero voltage testing result NZR and preset critical VREF, to produce comparative result OUT.Latch unit 361 couples comparator C OMP with breech lock comparative result OUT, and according to protection enable signal PRTEN is provided by the comparative result OUT of breech lock.In the present embodiment, latch unit 361 is a S-R latch unit, and setting end S wherein receives comparative result OUT, and the end R that resets receives reset signal RESET, and output Q then produces protection enable signal PRTEN.
Below please be simultaneously with reference to Fig. 3 A, Fig. 3 B and Fig. 3 C, wherein Fig. 3 B and Fig. 3 C are the movement oscillogram of the half-bridge driven device of the embodiment of the invention.Wherein, in time interval D2, half-bridge driver 320 stops action that output OT is charged, and in the moment that time interval D2 finishes, opens the path of the reference earthed voltage of output OT GND discharge.At the same time, because the voltage VOT on the output OT is a non-zero and greater than zero voltage level, therefore, the change action of so-called non-zero voltage takes place, and voltage VOT is descended fast.It should be noted that, the moment that finishes with time interval D2 is example, this moment transistor M2 according to control signal CTRL2 conducting so that a little resistance value to be provided at output OT and between with reference to earthed voltage GND, and have at output OT and between with reference to earthed voltage GND under the state of voltage difference to a certain degree, will corresponding voltage difference between the source of transistor M2, drain electrode and produce big electric current and cause transistor M2 to be burnt.
On the other hand, non-zero voltage detector 330 detects the quick down maneuver of voltage VOT, and produces the non-zero voltage testing result NZR of the negative pulse with high amplitude.360 of guard signal generators produce protection enable signal PRTEN by non-zero voltage testing result NZR and preset critical VREF1 are compared.In the present embodiment, be to have amplitude greater than the pulse signal of preset critical VREF 1 among the non-zero voltage testing result NZR, therefore, protection enable signal PRTEN will be enabled, and start the protection mechanism of half-bridge driven device 300.
In addition, in the moment that time interval D1 finishes, the path of the output OT charging of reference voltage GND is unlocked, and since the voltage level of voltage VOT on the output OT less than reference voltage VBUS, and the change action of so-called non-zero voltage takes place, and voltage VOT is risen fast.Non-zero voltage detector 330 detects the fast rise action of voltage VOT, and produces the non-zero voltage testing result NZR of the positive pulse with high amplitude.Therefore, in the embodiment of the invention, guard signal generator 360 also can produce protection enable signal PRTEN by non-zero voltage testing result NZR and preset critical VREF2 are compared.In the present embodiment, be to have amplitude greater than the pulse signal of preset critical VREF2 among the non-zero voltage testing result NZR, therefore, protection enable signal PRTEN will be enabled, and can start the protection mechanism of half-bridge driven device 300 equally.
