Abstract

Vertical sense devices in vertical trench MOSFET. In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, an electronic circuit includes a vertical trench metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor configured for switching currents of at least one amp and a current sensing field effect transistor configured to provide an indication of drain to source current of the MOSFET. A current sense ratio of the current sensing FET is at least 15 thousand and may be greater than 29 thousand.
