Title: Yogendra Pratap Singh: Inventor in Power FET Current Sensing

Introduction

Yogendra Pratap Singh is an inventor associated with Moradabad, India, and Infineon Technologies Americas Corp. His work includes a patented approach to sensing load current in common-drain power switches built with vertical FET technology.

Latest Patents

Singh is associated with 1 patent: “Current Sensing Implementation for Common-Drain, Back-to-Back Power Switches in Vertical FET Technology.” The invention describes a power device containing back-to-back FETs connected to a common drain node. A first replica FET provides a sense current representative of the load current, while a second replica FET provides a sense voltage representative of the common-drain-node voltage. A current-sense circuit uses that voltage to draw the sense current through the first replica FET, enabling load-current sensing.
