Abstract
A protection circuit and an illumination driving circuit are described herein. The protection circuit comprises a detection circuit, detecting a current flowing through a first switch to obtain a current detection signal and determining whether there is leakage at an input terminal according to the current detection signal; a control circuit, controlling the first switch to switch on intermittently, detecting the current flowing through the first switch by the detection circuit during a switch-on period of the first switch, and keeping the load at a disconnection state if the detection circuit determines there is leakage; and the first switch, connected to the input terminal, and a control terminal of the first switch being connected to the control circuit, and the first switch being controlled by the control circuit to be switched on intermittently. The present invention has the protection function and enhances safety during load removing and installation processes.
