  • Publication number: 20240083253
    Abstract: A command for a start procedure initiates a diagnostic sequence for an electric system (1) including a power stage (20) of a vehicle. A first switched current-limiting path (150) between a first polarity (12) of a battery (10) and a first polarity of the power stage (20) is closed. If an output voltage applied on the power stage is less than a low voltage threshold (320), the first switched current-limiting path (150) is opened and a second switched current-limiting path (170) between a second polarity (14) of the battery (10) and a second polarity of the power stage (20) is closed. If the output voltage is still less than the low voltage threshold (340), the first switched current-limiting path (150) is closed again (350).

  • Publication number: 20220297311
    Abstract: The present disclosure comprises a joining and/or inspection unit for joining and/or inspecting a component having a base and a plurality of joining and/or inspection elements, wherein the joining and/or inspection elements are arranged at the base such that they each establish a connection and/or carry out an inspection at a joining and/or inspection point of the component. The joining and/or inspection elements can be arranged at the base via an adjustment arrangement that allows an adjustment of the spacing of the joining and/or inspection elements from one another, with the adjustment arrangement preferably comprising a first and second adjustment axle via which the spacing of the joining and/or inspection elements from one another is adjustable in a first and second direction.
