    Abstract: A load switch circuit includes a charging transistor, a current sensor, a voltage sensor, a selector, a current controller and a mode controller. The charging transistor is connected between a first switch node and a second switch node and controls a charging current in response to a charging control signal. The current sensor is connected to the first switch node and the second switch node and senses the charging current to generate a current sensing signal. The voltage sensor is connected to the first switch node and the second switch node and senses a source-drain voltage of the charging transistor to generate a voltage sensing signal. The selector selects the current sensing signal or the voltage sensing signal in response to a mode signal to generate a selection voltage signal. The current controller compares the selection voltage signal with a reference voltage to generate the charging control signal.
