  • Circuit and method for checking the contacting of a switch or pushbutton
    Patent number: 6188225
    Abstract: In a circuit for checking the correct contacting of a switch or pushbutton in a d.c. circuit, the switch or pushbutton is connected alternatively with at least one input and at least one output of a controller or microprocessor, and a capacitor arrangement is connected in parallel with the switch or pushbutton. Another embodiment, a coil arrangement is provided in the lead of the switch or pushbutton. In a method for checking the correct contacting of a switch or pushbutton which is connected at least initially with the output, the signal level output through the output corresponds to the signal level at the input in the case of correct contacting and actuation of the switch or pushbutton. The switches or pushbuttons are connected at least with the input after a change in the signal level, whereupon the signal level is evaluated.
