  • Patent number: 10312836
    Abstract: Disclosed is a disconnection detection apparatus of a sinusoidal wave signal. The disconnection detection apparatus of the present disclosure converts a first sinusoidal wave and a second sinusoidal wave into absolute values, respectively, and determines that disconnection occurs when a value of the first sinusoidal wave is less than a first comparison value that is greater than a minimum value and a value of the second sinusoidal wave is less than a second comparison value that is less than a maximum value.
