Abstract
This paper presents a fully protected low side switch design from the thermal behavior perspective. The power dissipation is evaluated both for normal operation and for the main high power operation conditions: short circuit and overload, inductive clamping and turn on/off process. Electro-thermal simulations are used to evaluate the surface temperature, that is taken into account in designing the protection functions.
