A circuit for breaking a signal path has not only a switching means but also a low-pass or bandpass filter whose frequency characteristic is switchable or bypassable. The insulation between the input and the output when the switching means is open, which decreases with frequency in the case of ordinary switching means, is compensated for by the filter which is then connected. In one embodiment of the circuit, an out-of-band signal is applied to the circuit in addition to the useful signal. The out-of-band signal is intended to be supplied permanently to an evaluation circuit, regardless of the switching position of the switching means. To this end, the out-of-band signal is tapped off downstream of the filter, and the filter is designed such that the out-of-band signal can pass through the filter. In the case of a circuit for selecting one of two inputs, at least one of the inputs is provided with a switchable or bypassable filter, and the switching means is a selection means. Even when the input is not selected, an out-of-band signal is forwarded to an evaluation circuit. To this end, the out-of-band signal, as described above, is tapped off downstream of the filter and upstream of the selection means. |
