Overload

A state in which the output current of the power circuit exceeds the rated value. It occurs when a load exceeding the rated capacity is connected. Overloading can cause excessive current to flow, leading to heat generation or burnout of the circuit, posing a risk of failure. As a countermeasure, install a current protection function to stop the output or limit the current. As a preventive measure, perform thorough load current calculations during the design phase and design the circuit with sufficient margin to prevent overloading.
