HOW TO PROTECT CIRCUITS FROM OVERCURRENT DANGERS

Over-current or over-voltage conditions can pose a danger to your electronic systems, and possibly the people around it. Monitoring the current or voltage is critical in power supply, motor control and energy monitoring systems. In this video, we have designed a current monitoring circuit using the NCS214R current sense amplifier and NCS2250 comparator, to monitor a 100mA current threshold and demonstrate the circuit performance when the load is changed to trigger an over current condition.
