  • Patent number: 6545600
    Abstract: A novel vehicle signaling converter is disclosed. In one embodiment, inverted logic gates are used to provide low-true signals to a negative-logic power switch, which powers appropriate trailer lighting. In other embodiments, divergent current paths are provided for multiple signals to pass from a vehicle's lighting system to a trailer's lighting system, with each current path being independently current-limited. In still other embodiments, circuitry is placed within each of multiple lighting control signal paths that handles electrostatic discharge within a vehicle-trailer lighting signal converter.
