Abstract:
A digital input circuit adopts a first state when an input signal is below a lower threshold value and adopts a second state when the input signal is above an upper threshold value. The digital input circuit comprises first and second subcircuits that exhibit a non-ideal current output behavior at least in the second state, and each comprises a current stabilizing element with a driving circuit and a voltage stabilizing element. The first and second subcircuits are configured such that, at least in a portion of the second state, an electric current flowing through the first subcircuit's voltage stabilizing element consists substantially of a stabilized current of the second subcircuit, and an electric current that flows through the second subcircuit's voltage stabilizing element consists substantially of a stabilized current of the first subcircuit, such that the non-ideal current output behavior of the first and second subcircuits compensate for each other.

Claim (Index 7):
The digital input circuit of  claim 5 , wherein the first and second subcircuits are connected to each other such that the base of the NPN bipolar transistor of the second subcircuit is connected to the collector of the PNP bipolar transistor of the first subcircuit.
