Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
In a method for testing a supply circuit for an ignition circuit having at least one energy accumulator, a first conversion circuit that raises a supply voltage to a specified voltage level and charges the at least one energy accumulator, a controllable discharging circuit that discharges the at least one energy accumulator as needed, the energy accumulator is connected via a first coupling diode to the ignition circuit, and the supply voltage is applied via a second coupling diode to the at least one ignition circuit. Following the system start-up, a state of charge of the at least one energy accumulator is ascertained and compared to the at least one specified threshold value, and as a function of the comparison, a faultless supply circuit or at least one fault is recognized.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method for testing a supply circuit for at least one ignition circuit which includes at least one energy accumulator, a first conversion circuit which raises a supply voltage to a specified voltage level and charges the at least one energy accumulator, and a controllable discharging circuit which selectively discharges the at least one energy accumulator, the at least one energy accumulator being connected via a first coupling diode to the at least one igni…
