  • Discharging device, electrical unit and discharging method
    Patent number: 11554672
    Abstract: A discharging circuit includes a current limiting resistor, a first switch configured to connect a component to be discharged on an electrical network to a reference potential indirectly via the current limiting resistor, and a limiting circuit configured to be arranged on a control connection side of the first switch and is configured to limit heating that occurs at the first switch or at the current limiting resistor in a discharging mode, wherein the limiting circuit includes a thermistor thermally coupled to the first switch or to the current limiting resistor.
    Type: Grant
