Abstract
A triggering circuit and an electronic fuse device incorporating the same. The triggering circuit works with a microcontroller to control a load. The microcontroller has a low-power mode and an external interrupt input for triggering wakeup from the low-power mode and initiating an interrupt action related to the load. The triggering circuit comprises a sensor input for receiving a sensor signal related to the load, a threshold input for receiving a threshold reference signal, and a comparator for comparing the sensor signal to the threshold reference signal and for outputting an interrupt signal to the external interrupt input in response to the comparison.
