(Note: This is a simplified schematic – for a real PCB, include gate drive resistors, bypass caps, and snubbers.) Below are three practical schematics


Use a current sense resistor (e.g., 0.1Ω) between load and GND. Connect its voltage to Pin16 (2IN+). Set Pin15 (2IN‑) to desired limit voltage (e.g., 0.3V). When limit exceeded, PWM duty reduces. (Note: This is a simplified schematic – for

Connect a capacitor (10µF) and resistor (100kΩ) in series from REF to DTC (Pin4). Initially DTC voltage rises slowly, limiting duty cycle.
