I'm very interrested in this subject.
For luka, fredos and alexclaire: Please send me the the final version of D-amp schematic and PCB, I mean the Project file from what you are working with: tool, simulating program... (not the print screen of the schematic)
For 'Bender.ru' : what happend to the .ru forum:http://www.vegalab.ru/forum ?? is not working any more. It was interesting by the nr of ClassD schematics
 
Hahaha

Hi

Today I found that my overcurrent works, but how I found it to work is funny. Amp was running with + of probe already connected to one side on current sense resistor. And as soon as I touched with - to other side protection activated. This is because everything is connected to same phase from mains and scopes have their GND of channels connected to chassis, making such measurements impossible

Hi fredos

Protection works great, thanks for help :cheerful:

Hi

No. I'm scared to do that 😀. Well as long as I have 16A fuse inside I won't try that, but it works with music on speaker.


But i am not scared of short circuit...due to fast protection....

I donot use Resistors in series with rails or Fets, I rely on current transformer made with output inductor... a few secondary turns on the output inductor facilitates the current sensing without any efficiency loss....
 
Some hints....

There are many options with the current sense transformer....

You could use the isolated secondary windings to do the following:
Use a low value shunt and rectify the output by using schottky diode bridge....
1. Limit the input signal or mute
2. Clamp the gate drive signals...or latch the driver IC
3. Turn-off a relay or deactivate any type of crowbar....
