MUMBAI, India, Nov. 2 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202617092116 A) filed by Minebea Power Semiconductor Device Inc. on July 29, 2026, for Overvoltage Detection Device And Overvoltage Protection Circuit.
Inventor includes Yuguchi Takahiko.
The application for the patent was published on October 30, 2026, under issue no. 44/2026.
Abstract: The present invention provides an overvoltage detection device capable of detecting overvoltage with high reliability. An overvoltage detection device (10) detects overvoltage of a power supply voltage (VDC), comprises a voltage detection circuit (11) that generates a voltage obtained by reducing the power supply voltage at a predetermined ratio, and outputs the voltage generated by the voltage detection circuit (11). The overvoltage detection device (10) further comprises a clamp circuit (12) that clamps an output voltage (VO) of the overvoltage detection device (10) to zero when the power supply voltage (VDC) is lower than a predetermined threshold.
