Abstract
In one example, an electrical circuit includes a first functional block with an electrical load to produce an external result, a second functional block with a voltage isolator; a third functional block with a current controller. The first, second, and third functional blocks are connected such that the external result of the electrical load is determined by the current controller acting through the voltage isolator. The voltage isolator may be configured to limit a maximum voltage across the current controller.
