Abstract

Embodiments of this application relate to the field of electricity, and disclose a drive circuit. In some embodiments of this application, the drive circuit includes a low-side driver module and a delay module, the delay module is configured to output a delay signal of preset duration to the low-side driver module in a case that a control module is being reset; and the low-side driver module is configured to: according to on the delay signal of preset duration, maintain a first state within the preset duration, the first state being the same as a second state; where the second state is a working state of the low-side driver module before the control module is reset, and the second state includes being on or off. The embodiments can help avoid safety hazards caused by unexpected disconnection of a drive signal of the control module.
