Abstract: A circuit for current measurement and current monitoring in a motor vehicle is provided, with a measuring circuit with a first subtractor circuit, connected to a measuring resistor; an offset circuit, which is connected to the first subtractor circuit in such a way that a first output voltage of the first subtractor circuit is increased by an offset voltage; a second subtractor circuit, which is connected to the offset circuit and the first subtractor circuit in such a way that a second output voltage of the second subtractor circuit is substantially independent of the offset voltage, and a comparator circuit with at least one switching threshold, which is connected to the second subtractor circuit for comparison of the second output voltage with the at least one switching threshold.

Abstract: A device and a method for producing such a device is provided, whereby the windings of a spiral inductance are embedded in a membrane such that they are freely suspended over a completely back-etched area of the substrate for a decoupling of the windings from the substrate. An additional substrate is connected to the bottom side of the back-etched area of the processed substrate such that a hollow cavity is formed for a decoupling of the windings from the substrate.
