This paper describes an improved short-circuit protection method with a boost type rectifier using a multilevel AC/DC power converter. Since the output DC capacitors of the proposed scheme have ...

Therefore, AC power distribution module equipped with automatic current-limiting function and short-circuit protection has become a necessity. In this paper, a single-phase 220VAC smart power ...

The simple circuit in the figure adds a few low-cost components to a “dumb driver” to make it a smart one, with added short-circuit protection and built-in diagnostics.
