Abstract
This application relates to an active diode circuit for letting current pass in one direction and blocking current in the opposite direction. The active diode circuit comprises a transistor, a control voltage generation circuit for generating a control voltage that is supplied to a control terminal of the transistor, and a sensing circuit for detecting a quantity indicative of a current flowing through the transistor. The control voltage generation circuit generates the control voltage in dependence on the detected quantity. The application further relates to a method of controlling a transistor to function as an active diode so that current may pass in one direction and is blocked in the opposite direction.
