AN606 Features

* such as overcurrent and/or short circuit. This approach offers the freedom and flexibility of control-circuit design, though the accuracy of measurement is not suitable for current-control applications. Virtually any power MOSFET from the Vishay Siliconix product range can be supplied with a current
