Publication number: 20140015345Abstract: A current limiting circuit for use with an electrical device may include a test load and a test load switch operable for varying an electrical current flowing through the test load. A detector may be electrically connected to the test load for detecting variations in an electrical characteristic of the test load and generating a detector output signal indicative of the electrical characteristic. A detection threshold signal source may be provided for producing a detection threshold signal. A comparator may be electrically connected to the detector and the threshold signal source, the comparator operable for generating a load switch control signal based at least in part on the detector output signal and the detection threshold signal. A load switch may be electrically connected to the comparator and operable for adjusting a current flow through a main load in response to the load switch control signal.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 10, 2013Publication date: January 16, 2014Applicant: iLumisys, IncInventors: John Ivey, David L. Simon, Frank Palazzolo, Hoan Ngo
