Abstract
A new technique for limiting the surge current during short to battery in the unpowered state of low side driver is presented. This technique does not affect the main current regulation behavior in the powered state. The energy is limited to 28 micron Joules in the unpowered state and regulates the current to 3A in the powered state of the driver.
