    摘要: Method of testing a sensor device that comprises a single angle calculator and at least two magnetic sensor elements, comprising the steps of: a) obtaining signals from the sensor elements; b) amplifying and digitizing the signals from the sensor elements; c) applying a first input value (IN1) derived from the digitized signal, to the angle calculator, to obtain a first angle value (α); d) applying a second input value (IN2) derived from the digitized signal, to the angle calculator, to obtain a second angle value (β); e) performing a consistency test of the first and second angle value (α, β); f) detecting an error of the sensor device or the angle calculator based on an outcome of the consistency test.

    摘要: The present invention relates to an error detection circuit or detecting an error in a connection of an electrical component. The error detection circuit (10) comprises
    - a control circuit (14),
    - a terminal (16) arranged to connect the electrical component,
    - a driving means (12), coupled to said terminal and arranged to be controlled by said control circuit,
    whereby said driving means is arranged to drive a current on receipt of a control signal (Vctl) from the control circuit and whereby the control circuit is further arranged to receive in response to the current a measurement signal (15) via the terminal (16), to determine based on a characteristic of the measurement signal a possible error and to communicate an error signal based on said determining.
