Abstract: A remote power controller circuit (58) including a main switch (98) and a current limiting circuit (82). The main switch (82) has a switching duty factor and is operative between a first state and a second state. The main switch (98) when in the first state allows current (60) to pass to an output terminal (92) and when in the second state preventing current (60) from passing to the output terminal (92). The current limiting circuit (82) is electrically coupled to the main switch (98) and includes a limiting inductor (134) that controls rate of change of current flow to the output terminal (92). A flyback diode (130) is electrically coupled to the limiting inductor (134) and provides a current path for the limiting inductor (134) to discharge when the main switch (98) is in the second state. A method of limiting current flow through the remote power controller circuit (58) is also provided.
