ABSTRACT:
Preventing apparatus includes a switch in series with a battery in a DC/DC converter or a motor driving circuit driven by the battery. The apparatus is also provided with a detector for detecting the gate voltage of a heavy current driving FET transistor or the like used in the DC/DC converter or the motor driving circuit. The detector switches off the switch to thereby prevent an abnormal heavy current from continuing to flow, except during the normal operation period of the DC/DC converter or the motor driving circuit, when it is detected that the gate voltage of the FET transistor is at a predetermined value or higher.
