description A circuit includes an evaluation node through which current flows from a voltage source node to a sensed switch when the sensed switch is closed. First and second control switches are disposed between the voltage source node and the evaluation node to switch between first and second current paths for the current. The current passes through the first control switch when flowing along the first current path. The second control switch is coupled to a control terminal of the first control switch to deactivate the first control switch and allow the current to flow through the second current path. Multiple passive circuit elements are configured to establish first and second current levels for the current. The passive circuit elements are disposed between the voltage source node and the evaluation node in a circuit arrangement in which no current path to ground is present when the sensed switch is open.
