Abstract

The article focuses on the use of four-pin Zetex ZXCT1010 current-sense monitor chip and metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) in boosting output current. A figure is presented to demonstrate how a MOSFET and a current sense monitor can increase load current by bypassing binary-coded-decimal (BCD) switches. Also discussed is an equation which can be applied when calculating the four weighting resistors of BCD switches.
