Abstract
Techniques pertaining to battery protection circuits are disclosed. According to one embodiment of the present invention, the battery protection circuit includes a power button, a power detection circuit, a first switch coupled between the power button and the power detection circuit, the power detection circuit configured to output a power-off signal when either the first switch or the power button is in a switch-off state, a low-voltage detection circuit coupled with a battery and configured to detect whether a voltage of the battery is lower than a low-voltage detection threshold or not, and switch off the first switch to cut off an electric leakage path of the battery when the voltage of the battery is determined to be lower than the low-voltage detection threshold, and a power management circuit coupled with the power detection circuit and configured to cut off an electric discharge path of the battery to prohibit the battery from discharging when receiving the power-off signal.
