Abstract

See full text

Various techniques for dynamic power FET switching are disclosed. In some embodiments, a device comprises an array of two or more independently switchable power MOSFETs that are configured to sense current in a high current mode and a low current mode as well as circuitry for automatically switching from the low current mode to the high current mode when sensed current is above a threshold to switch to the high current mode.
