摘要:
A control unit for personal protection having a polarity reversal protection between an external battery voltage and an internal voltage, to prevent an energy discharge from the control unit. The control unit also has a bidirectional DC/DC converter between an energy reserve and the internal voltage, the DC/DC converter determining its direction of conversion as a function of the internal voltage. The control unit is configured so that the control unit, after a switching-off process, records at least one measured value and generates a signal as a function of this measured value which characterizes an autarchy behavior of the control unit.

A personal protection control unit, having an energy reserve which is charged by a battery voltage and supplies power to the control unit. In addition, a first voltage supply circuit is provided, down-converting the voltage of the reserve power in such a way that the first voltage supply circuit supplies several voltage levels for operation of the control unit. Finally, a second voltage supply circuit is also provided and is also connected to the energy reserve, supplying at least one additional voltage level to at least one transistor and to at least one voltage regulator via a resistive circuit.
摘要:
A control device for a restraining system in a motor vehicle is proposed, a safety switch, which also includes a watchdog, performing the function of a safety switch in the control device. The safety switch monitors sensor signals which are transmitted to the processor of the control device for plausibility and triggers appropriate restraining systems via a time unit for a predefined time period only when the safety switch itself detects a trigger event. On the basis of supplementary data from the sensor signals, the safety switch infers how the sensor signals are to be processed. The safety switch is designed such that it triggers the restraining systems correspondingly assigned to the sensors. When the control device is switched on, the processor performs a test of the safety switch by generating a test signal using the sensors.

A control unit in which at least one inertial sensor and a processor are accommodated in a housing. The data transmission between the inertial sensor and the control unit is performed digitally. The transmission may be provided with error bits or status bits. The data transmission is configured to be bidirectional in particular. Four lines are provided between the control unit and the sensor, one of the lines being used for selecting the sensor.
摘要:
A circuit with which errors in the triggering circuit can be very reliably detected has a transistor bridge circuit in whose shunt arm a triggering arrangement and a capacitor are arranged. A measured current source is connected to the transistor bridge circuit. A controller controls the transistors and the measured current source during a monitoring cycle so that the capacitor is charged by a measured current. A sample-and-hold circuit controlled by the controller measures, after the capacitor has been charged, a first voltage drop across the triggering circuit and, after the measured current has been turned off, a second voltage drop across the triggering circuit so that the controller can determine the resistance of the triggering arrangement and the capacitance from these two voltages.

In a control device and a method for operating a safety system for a vehicle, a step-up converter is fashioned as a switching converter which converts an input voltage derived from a vehicle battery voltage into a higher charge voltage at its output. In addition, at least one energy reserve storage device is provided that is charged by the charge voltage for the operation of the safety system in an autarkic mode. Between the step-up converter and the at least one energy reserve storage device there is connected a charge current source that is programmable during operation and that defines a charge current for the at least one energy reserve storage device as a function of its programming.

A control unit and a method for operating a safety system for a vehicle are proposed. A step-up converter configured as a switching converter is provided. The step-up converter converts an input voltage, which is derived from a vehicle battery voltage, into a higher charging voltage at its output. In addition, at least one energy reserve storage is provided which is charged via the charging voltage for operating the safety system in the case of autonomous operation. At least one step-down converter is operated inversely with respect to the step-up converter, the at least one step-down converter converting down the charging voltage or a voltage which is output by the at least one energy reserve storage.

A device for activating an air bag for a vehicle, the device having a pressure vessel for supplying a gas under pressure using at least one exit opening for letting out a first volume flow of the gas to the air bag, a valve element connected to the pressure vessel, which is configured to close the exit opening at least partially in a resting position and, in a motion into a triggering position, to release the exit opening, and a bursting element for the gas-tight closing of the pressure vessel. The device further includes a bypass region for letting out a second volume flow of the gas to the air bag, the bypass region being situated before an end region of the exit opening in relation to the main flow direction of the first volume flow.
