Abstract
This disclosure describes a driver circuit configured to control a gate injection transistor (GIT). The driver circuit is configured to output a control current to a gate of the GIT, detect a voltage at the gate of the GIT, and determine a load current through the GIT based on the voltage detected at the gate of the GIT. The voltage at the gate of the GIT may be dependent on both the load current and the control current.
