Abstract
A protection circuit for monitoring and recognizing an undervoltage condition in the electrical system of a motor vehicle having an anti-skid brake control system in order to minimize and reduce any adverse effects on the braking action of the vehicle wheels. The protection circuit includes at least one comparator circuit to recognize if the voltage falls below a predetermined reference threshold voltage. When the supply voltage falls below the threshold voltage, the comparator circuit deactivates at least one of two diagonal switching circuits to remove automatic brakes on at least two wheels of a vehicle by the anti-skid brake control system.
