Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a detection circuit, an appliance, and a control method. The detection circuit includes at least a first capacitive component, a second capacitive component, a load to be detected and a detection component, where the first capacitive component is connected in series with the load to be detected to form a first branch, and the first branch is connected in parallel with a second branch including the second capacitive component. The detection component is configured to detect a first alternating current (AC) signal of the first branch and a second AC signal of the second branch, determine a first direction of the first AC signal and a second direction of the second AC signal, and determine a type of the load to be detected based on the first direction and the second direction.
