Abstract: A circuit (100) for use, e.g., in driving solenoid loads (SV) in motor vehicles (V), comprises a controller (20) configured to produce a pulse-width-modulated (PWM) signal to control current supply to an electrical load (SV). Redundant current measurement circuitry comprises a first current sensing path (S1, 10H, 12H, 14H) and a second current sensing path (S2, 10L, 12L, 14L) to measure the current in the electrical load (SV) and provide first and second current measurement signals. Monitor circuitry (24, 26) coupled to the current measurement circuitry asserts a current monitor signal (HS-LS COMP) in response to the first and second current measurement signals being found to be matching. The monitor circuitry (24, 26) is configured to detect the absence of an asserted current monitor signal prior to expiry of a threshold time interval and force the controller (20) to produce, prior to expiry of the threshold time interval, at least one PWM pulse having a controlled non-O% duty-cycle. This may be either a pulse having a duty-cycle different the duty cycle of a PWM signal currently generated (ON-state operation) or a pulse forced while the circuit is not currently generating a PWM signal (OFF-state operation).

IPC: H04W74/08

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method for listening on an uplink channel and an apparatus. In the method and the apparatus, a contention window size CWS is determined with reference to a time threshold, for example, a timer. After sending an uplink burst, if a terminal device does not receive indication information carrying an HARQ status, the terminal device increases the CWS and then performs channel listening. The time threshold, for example, the timer, is set, so that it is avoided that because there is a delay in feeding back HARQ status information, the CWS is increased if the HARQ status information fed back by a network device is not received within a time interval (for example, a time interval less than the delay) after one uplink burst. Therefore, it is avoided that a success rate of accessing a channel by the terminal device is reduced due to an excessive increase of the CWS, so that the terminal device can more properly adapt to a channel status when performing grant-free uplink transmission.
