CONTROL ARRANGEMENT AND METHOD FOR ELECTRONIC DEVICE

摘要

A control arrangement and method is provided for electronic devices in which an electronic switch is maintained in a conducting state at all times other tha n when it is desired to render the electronic switch nonconducting. In a specific embodiment, a latched control signal is utilized which is changed by the receipt of a momentary signal to change the conducting state of the electronic switch. For example, according to one specific arrangement, t he momentary signal is a secure, complex signal such that appropriate decoding and detection of the proper signal is required to change the conducting state of the electronic switch.
