The present application provides a synchronous rectification circuit, which adopts a multiplexer that selectively inputs a first reference signal or a second reference signal to a comparator by coupling the first and second reference signal. A comparing signal is generated to a switch element by comparing a switch input signal. Hereby, the switch element is under control for synchronous rectification.

A power tool includes a case, a motor, a plurality of Hall effect sensors, a first circuit board, and a second circuit board. The Hall effect sensors detect a position of a rotor of the motor and correspondingly generate position signals. A plurality of commutating switches and a first controller are disposed on the first circuit board. A second controller is disposed on the second circuit board, and could transmit a driving signal to the first controller according to the operating signal of an operator interface. The first controller regulates the commutating switches to commutate according to the driving signal and the position signals, thereby to activate the rotor to rotate. With such design, a commutation process and a user operating process are regulated by the two different controllers, which could efficiently simplify the program code installed in each of the controllers and facilitate the maintenance of the controllers.
