    Abstract: A sensing circuit (50) for detecting open and short circuit conditions in sensors (20) is provided. The sensing circuit (50) includes switching circuitry ( t1 ,t1-t5), a voltage supply (VBIAS), a test capacitor (32), and an operational amplifier (30). The switching circuitry ( t1 ,t1-t5) is electrically coupled to the voltage supply (VBIAS), test capacitor (32), operational amplifier (30), and a sensor (20). The sensing circuit (50) is configured to provide for a normal operating mode in which the sensing circuit (50) provides an output indicative of a voltage across the sensor (20), and a charging mode in which the test capacitor (32) is coupled to the sensor (20) and operational amplifier (30) and charged to a steady state, and in which the output (35) of the operational amplifier (30) is a function of the test capacitor (32) capacitance and the capacitance of the sensor (20). A method for detecting open and short circuit conditions in sensors (20) is also provided.

    Abstract: A high-side driver circuit for driving a load, including a low-side driver IC (12) having a drive output (16) and a feedback input (18), a first transistor (Q1) coupled to the drive output (12), and a second transistor (M1) coupled between a power source and the load. The second transistor (M1) is configured to enter an "OFF" state when the first transistor (Q1) is driven into an "OFF" state by the drive output, and to enter an "ON" state when the first transistor (Q1) is driven into an "ON" state by the drive output.
