Adaptive voltage clamps and related methods

Abstract:

Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture providing adaptive voltage clamps are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a voltage clamp to clamp a drain-to-source voltage of a transistor to a first voltage when the drain-to-source voltage exceeds the first voltage, and a controller to generate a control signal to direct the voltage clamp to clamp the drain-to-source voltage to a second voltage different from the first voltage based on a fault signal.
