    Abstract: The present invention relates to a solid-state relay including a power semiconductor switch device connected between a first electrical terminal and a second electrical terminal and having a command terminal. An electronic driving block is adapted to generate a command signal applied to the command terminal to switch the at least one semiconductor switch device from a closed/open state to an open/closed state to disconnect/connect the first electrical circuit portion from/to the second portion of the electrical circuit. An electronic block detects a current which crosses the power semiconductor switch device. The electronic detection block includes a first electronic device adapted to generate a first signal indicative of a difference of potential between the first and second terminals generated by the current which crosses a total resistance present between the first and second terminals of the power semiconductor switch device in the closed state. The total resistance comprises the sum of a first resistance associated with the semiconductor switch device in the closed state and of second bonding resistances associated with an electrical connection between one of the conductive terminals and the respective either first or second electrical terminal.

    Abstract: A control circuit for a single-cell linear oxygen sensor having a first and a second electrical terminals on which a first voltage and respectively a second voltage are present, wherein a cell current between the first and second electrical terminals is indicative of a detected oxygen concentration, and wherein the control circuit generates a biasing voltage between the first and the second electrical terminals with a preset pattern as a function of the cell current. The circuit envisages: a transresistance block, coupled to the second electrical terminal to generate a processed voltage as a function of the cell current and based on the preset pattern; and an adder stage, coupled to the transresistance block and to the second electrical terminal, to perform a sum between the processed voltage and the second voltage, to generate the first voltage for the first electrical terminal of the linear oxygen sensor, so that the biasing voltage has the preset pattern as a function of the cell current.
