Variable Over-Current Detection Load Switch

This over-current latch load switch provides over-current protection, thermal shutdown protection, soft-start function, and low power OFF function. The Overcurrent protection function is activated when the load is shorted. This protection function is effective in preventing damage due...

Overcurrent / Over-discharge Protector for Lead Acid Batteries

The project described here protects and monitors a Lead-Acid battery against too-low battery voltage and over-current conditions. The circuit consists of MAX4373 current-sense amplifier with internal dual comparators and P-channel MOSFET in series with the battery and its load. It...
