Abstract

The invention relates to a method for identifying the state of a load connected to a circuit terminal, wherein a circuit arrangement has: a capacitor between the circuit terminal and ground; a potential terminal connected to a supply voltage source or ground; a switch between the potential terminal and the circuit terminal, It is set up to connect or separate potential terminals and circuit terminals from each other; a reference voltage source is set up to provide a reference potential on the circuit terminals; wherein the switch is opened to separate the potential terminals from the circuit terminals; Provide a reference potential on the ground; determine the measured potential present on the circuit terminals; identify the load state based on the determined measured potential, a first threshold, and a second threshold; where the first threshold is between the value of the supply voltage source voltage and the ground potential, and the second threshold Between the first threshold and the ground potential, the first range between the first threshold and the supply voltage source voltage value and the second range between the ground voltage value and the second threshold are smaller than the range between the first threshold and the second threshold the third range.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method and a circuit arrangement for identifying the state of a load connected to a circuit terminal, as well as a computing unit and a computer program for carrying out the method. Background technique [0002] The circuit arrangement for controlling the load can have a high-side branch or a low-side branch. By means of so-called high-side switches, loads connected to ground can be connected to or disconnected from the supply voltage source. For this purpose, the switching transistors can be provided as corresponding switches, eg MOSFETs. Furthermore, snubber capacitors are often provided in order to ensure electromagnetic compatibility (EMV) of the circuit arrangement. [0003] Such circuit arrangements are frequently used in the automotive field. In a motor vehicle, for example, a load can be provided, which can be controlled by a low-side switch in the output stage of the control device. Such loads can be used...
