  • Patent number: 11063428
    Abstract: A switch circuit includes a first switch, a current protection component, a current detection circuit, and a controller. The first switch conducts a primary side coil. The current protection component generates a detection voltage. The current detection circuit outputs a protection voltage. When the detection voltage is not greater than a first threshold, the current detection circuit generates a first voltage corresponding to the detection voltage as the protection voltage. When the detection voltage is greater than the first threshold, the current detection circuit generates a second voltage corresponding to the detection voltage as the protection voltage, where the first voltage is different from the second voltage. The controller is suitable for making the first switch selectively conducting and not conducting. When the protection voltage is greater than a second threshold, the controller does not increase a proportion of a conduction time to a non-conduction time of the first switch.
