1. An overvoltage protection circuit for a circuit of an output MOS transistor and a load connected in series between a first power supply and a second power supply, comprising:

  • a dynamic clamping circuit connected with said gate of said output MOS transistor;

    a control switch connected between said first power supply and said dynamic clamping circuit; and

    a serge detecting circuit which monitors a voltage of said first power supply and turns on said control switch when the voltage of said first power supply increases to a voltage higher than a predetermined voltage.
