  "textContent": "A switching mode front end surge protection circuit protects downstream devices from a load dump. Specifically, the switching mode front end surge protection circuit includes a metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) that operates in either one of two modes based on an input voltage provided by an alternator. When the input voltage is less than a voltage threshold value, the MOSFET operates in a pass-through mode. When the input voltage is greater than the voltage threshold value, the MOSFET operates in a switching mode to oscillate between an on state and an off state.",
