Abstract
A control circuit includes a latching relay, a power loss activation circuit, and a watchdog circuit. A microcontrol unit (MCU) communicates with the watchdog circuit in a normal operation of the control circuit. As an action of a failsafe precaution in the event of a main power loss or a component failure, the MCU stops communicating with the watchdog circuit, at which point the watchdog circuit instructs the power loss activation circuit to continue operation of the control circuit. The control circuit further operates to implement mitigation operations in the event of a main power loss or component failure.
