Abstract
A power switch may be coupled to a power input, a first capacitor, a second capacitor, and a power output. A first switch may be coupled to the first capacitor. A second switch may be coupled to the second capacitor. A current sensor may be configured to measure a first current of the first capacitor and a second current of the second capacitor. A controller may be configured to determine whether the first capacitor and the second capacitor shorts or opens based on the first current and the second current, respectively. The controller may generate one or more alerts based on opening/shorting of a capacitor, and may open a switch based on shorting of a capacitor.
