  • Publication number: 20160214583
    Abstract: A method for transmitting error information in a pulse signal, the signal being designed to transmit measured values from a sensor that are frequency modulated with pulses having a first magnitude to a receiver. The method includes: recognition of an error in the sensor; and introduction of a pulse having a second magnitude which is different from the first magnitude into the pulse signal, in order to indicate the recognized error in the pulse signal.

  • Publication number: 20100231427
    Abstract: An electronic circuit for correcting at least one digital measurement signal (??n, ??1, ??2) comprising at least one measurement channel having a sigma-delta modulator and a correction circuit. The sigma-delta modulator changes an analog measurement signal into a digital measurement signal in the form of a binary value sequence. The correction circuit corrects the digital measurement signal (??n, ??1, ??2) as a function of at least one correction datum (trim), wherein the correction circuit comprises at least one adding element and at least one multiplexer. The digital measurement signal is corrected in that the correction datum (trim) is weighted by means of the multiplexer and the adding element as a function of the digital measurement signal (??n, ??1, ??2).

  • Publication number: 20100182725
    Abstract: Circuit arrangement (2,3,4,5) in an electronic control device which is connected to at least one wheel speed sensor channel (6,7,8,9) transmitting wheel speed information, in particular in the form of a current signal, the circuit arrangement (2,3,4,5) having at least one monitoring module (U1,U2,U3,U4) for the at least one wheel speed sensor channel (6,7,8,9), where this at least one monitoring module (U1,U2,U3,U4) is suitable for monitoring an excess current fault on at least one wheel speed sensor channel (6,7,8,9), in which, when an excess current fault is detected by the at least one monitoring module (U1,U2,U3,U4) the respective wheel speed sensor channel(s) (6,7,8,9) is/are blocked by a blocking circuit (10,11,12,13) of the circuit arrangement (2,3,4,5), and/or in which the circuit arrangement (2,3,4,5) causes the blocking of the respective wheel sensor channel or channels (6,7,8,9) from outside the circuit arrangement (2,3,4,5).
