Abstract
A control unit for a battery system, comprising: a microcontroller configured to generate a first control signal; a monitoring unit configured to generate a fault signal indicative of the operational state of the microcontroller; a first signal source configured to generate a state signal indicative of a system state; a comparator circuit configured to generate an intermediate control signal based on a first control signal and a fault signal; the comparator circuit further comprising a comparator node, the comparator circuit configured to transmit the intermediate control signal to the comparator node; wherein the first signal source is connected to the comparator node to transmit the state signal to the comparator node; the comparator circuit further comprises a comparator connected to the comparator node and configured to generate a switch control signal based on a voltage on the comparator node and based on a threshold voltage.
