Zusammenfassung:Only one (121) of the parallel-connected electronic switches (12i) are provided with a current detection and/or evaluation circuit (16,18), to detect or evaluate the current flowing through this switch. At lest one current detection circuit (16) may be integrated in the electronic switch (121). The current detection circuit may include a current mirror. The electronic switches may comprise MOSFETs or smart MOSFETs.
