What is Short-circuit current?
Current that flows from supply to ground in a CMOS gate during the brief time while the input switches and both the pMOS and nMOS are on. Also called crowbar current, it adds to power consumption.
Field: MOSFET
Short-circuit current in the explanations
The fill factor is the power at the maximum power point divided by the product of open-circuit voltage and short-circuit current, indicating how close the I-V curve is to a rectangle.
