Abstract:
The invention relates to a transistor arrangement (1) comprising a transistor (10), which is provided with first and second connections (12, 14) and a control connection (16) for controlling a current flow (iD) between said first and second connections (12, 14), a signal processing device (22) exposed to the transistor control voltage (uDS) for admitting said control connection (16) according to a differential voltage (uDS) supplied between the first and second connections (12, 14) and a control device (23) which is associated with the signal processing device (22) and switches it between at least two operating modes. An inverter signal (uWR) causes, for an uWR value=0, an effect in such a way that the transistor (10) is used in the form of a conductor for uDS 0. For uWR=uWR, said transistor (10) is permanently conductive.
