Clever Current Limiter

[Mike L.]

Hello all,

I just thought I would post this pointer to a really clever (at least I think so) circuit to limit inrush current published in this months EDN. This is could be useful for class A solid state amps that use massive amounts of filter capacitance.

Too late I'm afraid. We have already discussed it, pretty recently.

Wasnt that the April Fool schematic, the protection circuit that blows itself up ?

Really? Don't know how I missed it, could have had a good laugh.

One more reason if in the future I get to publish something, for not doing it in EDN.
