Abstract
A high side switch circuit includes a switch electrically connected between input and output terminals, a gate control unit, and an over-current sensor unit. The over-current sensor unit includes a resistive element and a comparator. The comparator senses an over-current if a voltage of the resistive element exceeds a threshold voltage. The comparator is adjusted in advance such that the detected voltage at the time of over-current exceeds the threshold voltage. Even if accuracy of resistance value of the resistive element is not high, accuracy of detecting over-current can be improved by adjusting the comparator.
