Automobiles are equipped with various lamp loads including headlamps. Whether or not these various lamp loads are lit normally is important for the safe operation of a car. Soζ
So far, a j4ir type automotive Oymp WIrlI detection circuit has been proposed. However, this kind of oil lamp disconnection detection circuit in the prior art requires as many power switches as there are lamps! In view of the drawbacks of the above-mentioned prior art, the present invention aims to reduce the number of constituent elements (097) for automobiles. The present invention achieves this purpose by driving nine or more lamps connected in parallel to each other with a power switch III, and when all the lamps are normal. In view of the fact that the value of the load current is different between cases where this is not the case, the load current is compared with the reference value and the magnitude relationship
It is designed to detect rung breakage. Nine to ζ
otao electric line Kjh, the power supply voltage for driving the lamp is activated, and at the same time the 9 lamp is a non-linear load, and the fluctuation of the ToI power supply voltage and the fluctuation of the load current RO are not proportional in a 1:10 relationship, so the reference value is There is a chance that you will get a score of 9 by devising the way you give it. Therefore, the present invention allows the reference value to follow fluctuations in the power supply voltage while at the same time compensating with a fixed voltage.

In addition, the reason for setting fixed voltage vDD is as follows:
That is, due to the non-direct connection of the lamps 1 to 4 as loads, the load current! . The relationship between power supply voltage vcc and al vs. l is not proportional and is approximately x0 + ΔI, /I, -11e (vcco, 5

When the 0 lamp goes out, the gate circuit 1 is controlled at the same time by the lamp control circuit 1 so that the 2 lamp disconnection signal 1° is not output. This is because KV, .<vr, f normally occurs.Incidentally, the reason why 2 pumps are normally disconnected is because of the rush current when MIK changes from the OFF state to the ON state. Since this is caused by vibration when the lamp is on, there is no problem in detecting the disconnection only when the lamp is on.

As described above in detail with the embodiments and 4KA, according to the present invention, a plurality of lamps are driven by an l-power switch, and the value of the load current flowing through the lamps is determined by a current detection resistor. If the lamps are all normal despite fluctuations in the power supply voltage and non-linearity as a load on the rung, the voltage across the current detection resistor is always smaller than the voltage across the current detection resistor, and the lamp is Since the KFi is compared with a reference voltage created from the power supply voltage and a fixed voltage so that if a wire breaks even in the case of a wire breakage, it will always be much hotter than the above voltage, it is possible to perform the desired wire breakage detection with an extremely small number of components.

The lamp includes a plurality of lamps connected in parallel with each other, which are driven via a IIIK power switch by the varying power supply voltage of the automobile, and a current detection resistor for detecting the load current flowing through the lamp. If everything is normal, the voltage across the current detection resistor is always a little lower, and if the lamp is cut off even at 9, the voltage is always the same as above (compensate this with the power supply voltage so that it is always the same). A reference voltage created from the identification voltage and t is compared with the voltage across the current detection resistor, and a t1 cutoff signal is output when the voltage becomes slightly smaller than the reference voltage when the yp is turned on. What we did was to detect mold in automobile lamps.
