Abstract
An overcurrent protection circuit includes a first switching element including a fourth terminal, a sixth terminal connected to a first terminal, and a fifth terminal, and a second switching element including a seventh terminal connected to the fifth terminal, an eighth terminal connected to the fourth terminal, and a ninth terminal. The first switching element electrically connects the sixth terminal and the fifth terminal in response to detecting a voltage value between the first terminal and a third terminal of the switching device exceeding a predetermined threshold based on the predetermined threshold voltage input into the fourth terminal. The second switching element electrically connects, in response to the sixth terminal and the fifth terminal of the first switching element being electrically connected to each other, the eighth terminal and the ninth terminal to lower the predetermined threshold voltage input into the fourth terminal of the first switching element.
