Abstract: A circuit for controlling the reserve lamp (LAMP) of a vehicle's fuel level indicator instrument (STR). The circuit uses a switch (SW1) controlled by an extremely asymmetric clock signal (CLK) periodically to switch, for a very short time, the signal (Rj) provided by the level sensor (SENS) towards a comparator (CMP) operable to compare this signal (Rj) with a threshold value (Rth) for the purpose of determining the state of the reserve lamp (LAMP).

Abstract: A circuit for diagnosing the state of a load (LD) comprises a DMOS transistor (DMOS1) interposed between a terminal (OUT) of the load (LD) and voltage comparator circuits (CDT) in order to limit the maximum voltage input to the comparators (CDT) to reduce the circuit area occupied by the comparators (CDT) and consequently the cost of the diagnosis circuit.

Abstract: In order to achieve a high input dynamic range as well as high CMRR and PSRR values and input impedance with the use of a single supply voltage (Vcc), the amplifier includes an input stage with two transistors (Q1, Q2) which are biased by a constant current (IP3, IP4), preferably of less than 1 microampere, and the collectors of the transistors (Q1, Q2) are kept at fixed reference voltages (VR1, VR2). The input signal (VIN) applied between the emitters (IN(-), IN(+)) of the transistors (Q1, Q2) is transferred to the terminals of a first resistor (R1) which is supplied with current (IR1) from a circuit (M7, A5, R3; M10, Q6, R4; M9, Q7, R5) which mirrors the current (IR1) into a second resistor (R6), from the terminals of which the output signal (VOUT) is taken. The preferred application is for forming interfaces for lambda probes fitted to catalytic converters for motor vehicles.

Abstract: The circuit includes two output terminals (OUT1, OUT2) for connection to the terminals of a load (L), first and second pairs of electronic power switches (Q1, Q4; Q2, Q3) which are connected between the output terminals (OUT1, OUT2) and the two poles of a direct-current voltage supply (Vs) so as to form an H-shaped structure with the load (L), and a driver circuit (C1, C2) for selectively making the electronic power switches of the first pair (Q1, Q4) of the second pair (Q2, Q3) order to cause a current to flow through the load (L) in one direction or the other respectively, and for preventing the electronic switches (Q1, Q3; Q2, Q4) which are connected between the same output terminal (OUT1; OUT2) and the two poles of the voltage supply (Vs) from conducting simultaneously.
