Abstract
The authors present a completely solid-state protective device based on power MOSFETs for low-voltage AC power circuits. This device includes not only solid-state sensing and tripping circuits but also a solid-state means of interruption. The operation of the power switch in various operating conditions is analyzed to determine its control requirements and design limitations
