Abstract

The article focuses on the role of high-side load driver for the protection of short-circuit. It states that "dumb" driver control a high-power load operating at a much higher voltage without fear of destructive short-circuit conditions. It further discusses how optocoupler effectively allows the circuit to monitor the voltage across the load.
