Abstract: A method (200) and a connection test device (100; 300) for checking an intermittent impedance variation in a first and/or a second line (110; 302, 334) are described. The connection test device (100; 300) comprises a transmitter (102; 308) having a test signal generator (106) for generating a test signal and a first test point (108; 304) for connecting the first (110; 302) or the second line (334), wherein the test signal generator (106) supplies the test signal to the first (110; 302) or the second line (334) via the first test point (108; 304). The connection test device (100; 300) further comprises a first receiver (104; 310) having a second test point (112; 306, 336) for connecting the first (110; 302) or second line (334) and a receiver front end (114; 326, 328) which receives an incoming signal from the first (110; 302) or second line (334) via the second test point (112; 306, 336).
Abstract: A bidirectional MOSFET switch is provided. The switch includes an input terminal, an output terminal and two MOSFET transistors which are connected to one another by their source and gate terminals. The input and the output terminals are connected to a respective drain terminal of the two MOSFET transistors. The switch further includes a control input terminal that is galvanically isolated by a potential isolator and connected to a control unit configured to switch a control current for a FET transistor via a further MOSFET transistor. The FET transistor is configured to generate, by the control current, a gate voltage Vgs between the gate and the source at the two MOSFET transistors for the switching thereof, and a floating voltage source, which is galvanically connected to the input and which is configured to generate a gate control current for the two MOSFET transistors.
Abstract: A variable plug of a connector has a modular construction and includes a base module with cable connection and plug contacts. Depending on the desired total number of contacts of the plug, one or more add-on modules having additional plug contacts can be mechanically and electrically connected with the base module.
