hundreds of mF level capacitor discharging from 50V within 5s solution



Hi expert,

Do we have solutions for capacitor discharging solution? Customer is looking for such solution for discharging a hundreds of mF capacitor from 50V within 5s. 

Based on the requirement, supposing 100mF Cap. ic ≈ 100mF*50V/5000ms=1A

Do we simply use a shunt resistor with our low/high side switch or are there any more advanced system solutions?

Many thanks!
