In some implementations, a measurement circuit may drive, using a first transistor, a first node of a haptic load. The measurement circuit may trigger a first comparator when a voltage driving the haptic load satisfies a first condition. The first comparator may have a first node connected, in parallel, to a drain of a second transistor and may have a second node connected to the first node of the haptic load. Additionally, the second transistor may have a gate connected to a gate of the first transistor and may have the drain connected to a first reference current.

An evaluation method is for evaluating a charging connector in coolability by connecting an evaluation jig to the charging connector, the charging connector including a pair of male terminals and a bottom wall, the evaluation jig including a pair of female terminals, the pair of female terminals being connected to the pair of male terminals in evaluating the charging connector in coolability. The method comprises: connecting the pair of female terminals to the pair of male terminals; and adjusting a connection state of the terminals so that contact resistance between the terminals falls within a prescribed range.
