ABSTRACT:
A method is described in which load current present in a thyristor device may be detected by monitoring the characteristic voltage found on the gate of the thyristor. Load status information may be used in various ways such as, to turn off the output, to signal a load voltage, or to act as a lamp-fail reset on an aircraft passenger reading light.
