    Patent number: 12620799
    Abstract: Circuit-based resettable switch controllers are disclosed. A disclosed example apparatus for use with a circuit includes an integrator to define a function that is based on a current of the circuit and time, a comparator to receive a first signal from the circuit at a first input of the comparator, and to receive a second signal from the integrator at a second input of the comparator, and a latch to receive an output of the comparator, the latch to prevent the current from flowing to or through the circuit based on the output from the comparator.
