CONTROL UNIT, AND CONTROL DEVICE COMPRISING SAID CONTROL UNIT

摘要

Disclosed is a control device comprising a control unit and an evaluation unit that is configured so as to generate a control signal by which the control unit is impinged upon. The control unit (1) is provided with a voltage source (15) and a reference resistor (Rref) that can be connected in series to a sensor resistor (Rsens) whose value depends on the temperature thereof. The output voltage of the voltage source (15) drops on the sensor resistor (Rsens) and the reference resistor (Rref) in the connected state. The reference resistor (Rref) is dimensioned in such a way that the maximum power loss of the sensor resistor (Rsens) lies in the specified value range of the sensor resistor (Rsens).
