My dearest friends, Please I am taking this opportunity to praise the relationship between you and Mosopower for ten years. Under your support, Mosopower group is growing in steady; and now is becoming one of the leaders in power industry.
Switching Power Supply Current-Limit Latchup(5 of 6)
Personal Anecdote
When trouble-shooting a system or circuit in the lab, it is natural to set the current limit of lab supply to just over the expected steady state current. It is not always observed that latchup has occurred, especially if the latched voltage is near the desired voltage. Circuits and systems often exhibit strange behavior in the latched mode. When asked into the lab to observe a problem with a switching-mode power supply, the voltage source and current limit setting is one of the first things I check. It often is the problem. As project lead, manager, and consultant, this has given me many opportunities explain the problem to those unfamiliar with it.
