Abstract
A protection circuit for connecting and disconnecting to a DC power source, and a DC operated device including such a protection circuit. The protection circuit has input terminals for receiving power from a DC power source and output terminals for providing power to a DC operated device; a first stage with a voltage measurement circuit coupled between the input terminals; and a second stage following the first stage including a pre-charge control circuit. The protection circuit further includes a digital controller arranged for controlling activating and de-activating a local PSU for supplying power to electronics of the DC operated device. The digital controller is arranged for measuring a voltage of the voltage measurement circuit and de-activating the local PSU when detecting a voltage drop on the first input terminal that exceeds a predetermined threshold dip and/or threshold slope.
