摘要:
A circuit for diagnosing the state of a load (LD) comprises a DMOS transistor (DMOS1) interposed between a terminal (OUT) of the load (LD) and voltage comparator circuits (CDT) in order to limit the maximum voltage input to the comparators (CDT) to reduce the circuit area occupied by the comparators (CDT) and consequently the cost of the diagnosis circuit.
摘要:
The circuit comprises a measurement resistor (Rs) in series with the heater (16, 28), a detector circuit (20) for providing a signal (VOP) indicative of the current flowing in the resistor (Rs), switching devices (PW1, PW2; PW3, PW4) for controlling the connection of the heater (16, 28) to a direct-current voltage source (Vbat) and the connection of the measurement resistor (Rs) in the supply circuit comprising the source (Vbat) and the heater (16, 28), and a control unit (18, 32) arranged to drive the switching devices (PW1, PW2; PW3, PW4) in a manner such that, each time the heater (16, 28) is activated, the measurement resistor (Rs) is kept disconnected from the supply circuit of the heater (16, 28) for a predetermined period of time and the measurement resistor (Rs) is then connected in the supply circuit of the heater (16, 28).
摘要:
The stand-by circuit (SBC) comprises an input terminal (a) intended to be connected to the input of the driver circuit (IC), a capacitor (C), first and second current generators (G1, G2) selectively connectable to the capacitor (C), a first comparator circuit (C1) which when the signal (V in ) applied to the said input terminal (a) exceeds a predetermined threshold (Vso) connects the capacitor (C) to the first current generator (G1) to charge the said capacitor (C) at constant current, and when the said signal (V in ) is less than the said threshold (Vso) uncouples the capacitor (C) from the first current generator (G1) and connects it to the second generator (G2) in such a way as to discharge it at constant current, and a second comparator circuit (C2) which allows current to be supplied to the driver circuit (IC) when the voltage on the capacitor (C) exceeds a preestablished threshold (Vs2).
摘要:
The interface circuit (IC) has a single input terminal (i) for to receiving an analogue or digital (PWM) control signal (Vin) indicative of the required speed of rotation of the motor (M). The type of input signal (V in ) is recognised by means of comparator circuits (C1, C2). The input signal (V in ) is processed differently according to its nature in order, in any case, to output an analogue signal (V o ) acceptable by the regulation and control circuit (Z) which pilots the motor (M).
