Patents by Inventor Milind Nemchand Furia

Milind Nemchand Furia has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Publication number: 20240038759
    Abstract: An apparatus includes a protection circuit electrically connected to first and second voltage domains. The protection circuit includes a first silicon-controlled rectifier (SCR) and a second SCR connected in anti-parallel configuration. The first SCR is configured to connect the first voltage domain and the second voltage domain based on detection of a first triggering condition. The second SCR is configured to connect the second voltage domain and the first voltage domain based on detection of a second triggering condition. The protection circuit is configured to isolate the first and second voltage domains without the triggering conditions.
    Type: Application
