An additional circuit connected between the load side of a ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) and ground provides overvoltage protection against long-duration overvoltages, e.g., where the line ...

The Motor control ICs of the TDA514x family have been provided with an on-chip current limiter circuit. The current limit value, however, can not be set externally. Therefore the need came-up for an ...

A previous Idea for Design described a technique for protecting the “pass” transistor in a current-limiting circuit against excessive power dissipation (see “Fault-Protected Current Limiter Keeps Its ...

The circuit was designed to create a DC power supply that will be rated with 13.8 V and 20 A while having a current limiter and short circuit protection. By producing 13.8 Volts at around 20 Amps, the ...
