In the field of battery charging for electronic devices, it is known to employ a number of measures to avoid excessive power dissipation by a pass device in a charging system. However, many of these measures are either incompatible with linear charging regimes or add cost to the adapter and/or charging system. The present invention provides a power dissipation measurement circuit for controlling a control device that acts in series with another, but maximum current limiting, control device to control drive current to the pass device so as to limit the power dissipated by the pass device to a maximum threshold value.
