A turn-off device for a sensor, an actuator or a control unit for a vehicle or for an industrial facility, the sensor, the actuator or the control unit being connectable via a PHY interface to a communication network, via which the sensor, the actuator or the control unit is able to exchange messages with other units of the vehicle or of the industrial facility, the turn-off device including a blocker, which physically prevents the PHY interface from sending messages to the communication network. A sensor, an actuator or a control unit that includes the turn-off device, a method for functional checking, and an associated computer program are also described.

Turn-off device for components in safety-critical systems

A method for providing operationally safe activation of at least one electronic component in a system, a start process of the system being initiated, a decision logic being activated, at least one temperature sensor being read out by the decision logic, the decision logic, based on the measured temperature of the at least one temperature sensor, checking whether the at least one electronic component is activatable in an operationally safe manner, and an activation of the at least one electronic component being initiated by the decision logic, if the temperature measured by the at least one temperature sensor is below a threshold value. A related system is also described.
