In electrical technology development, sensors and protector circuit become one of the most important and inseparable components. Electronic goods that are not equipped with sensors and protection circuits, usually, are not able to work properly. In a hybrid on-board generator system for rotary wing drones, the sensing system is important because it will show the system’s behavior when it is operated. The sensor components used in this hybrid on-board generator system include voltage sensors, current sensors, and fuel sensor. Likewise, with the protection system, it must be existing in this system to ensure the system is safe to be used. The protection circuit in this system is used to isolate and secure the microcontroller from high voltage and current when the system is running. The protection circuit consist of opto-coupler and NPN switching circuit.
