In this paper, by using Picard-Fuchs equations and Chebyshev criterion, we study the bifurcate of limit cycles for quadratic Hamilton system S(2) and S(3): x= y+2axy+by2, y=-x+x2-ay2 with a∈(-(1)/(2),1), b=(1-a)(1+2a)1/2 and a=1, b=0 respectively, under perturbations of piecewise smooth polynomials with degree n. The discontinuity is the line y=0. We bound the number of zeros of first order Melnikov function which controls the number of limit cycles bifurcating from the center. It is proved that the upper bounds of the number of limit cycles for S(2) and S(3) are respectively 25n+161 (n≥3) and 24n+126 (n≥3) (taking into account the multiplicity).
