Abstract
A switch drive and control arrangement may comprise a first transformer configured to receive a control signal, a second transformer configured to receive a clock signal, and a demodulator configured to receive the control signal and the clock signal from a switch controller, via the first transformer and the second transformer. The demodulator may be configured to output a demodulated signal in response to the control signal and the clock signal. A signal fault detector may be provided to determine a fault in at least one of the control signal and the clock signal. A switch may be turned off in response to a fault being detected in at least one of the control signal or the clock signal.
