ACTIVE SENSOR WITH OPERATING MODE CHANGEOVER

The sensor (1) has a sensor unit (2), an evaluation circuit (3) and two connecting lines (4, 5) with a respective connection (41, 51) for transmitting sensor-related information, where supply voltage of the sensor is present on the connecting lines. A changeover module (6) changes between a normal o...

Zusammenfassung:The sensor (1) has a sensor unit (2), an evaluation circuit (3) and two connecting lines (4, 5) with a respective connection (41, 51) for transmitting sensor-related information, where supply voltage of the sensor is present on the connecting lines. A changeover module (6) changes between a normal operating mode and a special operating mode by the reversal of the polarity of the supply voltage present at the connections. An independent claim is also included for a method for driving an active sensor.
