How to detect invidual load across parralled MOSFETS

(1/4) > >>

SpottedDick:
Say you had the following configuration:



Is it possible to detect how much load each MOSFET is getting electrically without modifying the circuit (for example adding a shunt)?

I know thermally checking will give some indication, but they're quite well thermally joined.

Martin72:
If you had balancing resistors inbetween, you could measure over them to see possibly differences.
But in this configuration....

SpottedDick:
It's just not possible sure it's not?

They're basically connected together.

I shouldn't have even asked the question! Thanks anyway.

PeteH:
Is this controlled in linear mode (current controlled?), or hard switched on/off?

SpottedDick:
Linear region (current controlled).
