Zusammenfassung:A device and associated PCB structure are provided in which a dedicated area of the device substrate is patterned, so that it can be contacted by a readout arrangement of the PCB. The pattern comprises an arrangement of contact regions. Interconnections and open circuits are used to encode information. A dotted contact area of the PCB is used to probe the pattern, and relay this to a driver which can then derive information about the type of device being driven. The driver can thus be controlled accordingly.
