Abstract
A programmable power discharge circuit and a method of discharging power are provided. The programmable power discharge circuit includes a programmable voltage controller, a detect circuit, and a discharge circuit. The programmable voltage controller selects and provides a threshold voltage by a voltage divider including a plurality of impedance components. The detect circuit detects a difference between the threshold voltage and a working voltage to decide whether the working voltage is discharged.
