PROCEDE DE GESTION D'UN CIRCUIT ELECTRONIQUE COMPORTANT UN DISPOSITIF DE PROTECTION THERMIQUE ET CIRCUIT ELECTRONIQUE CORRESPONDANT

摘要

A method for managing an electronic circuit (2) including a thermal protection device (12) interrupting the operation of the electronic circuit when a measured temperature exceeds a predetermined threshold, includes counting the electronic circuit operation interruptions and interrupting the operation of the electronic circuit when the number of counted interruptions reaches a predetermined value and when no reset has taken place. The corresponding circuit includes: a counter (16); linking elements between the counter and the thermal protection device such that the counter can indicate the number of operation interruptions caused by the thermal protection device; and elements for resetting the counter.
