Abstract
An electric circuit system for detecting a short circuit between output PINs of different ICs, particularly CMOS-ICs, which in each case have a first switching element, particularly a highside transistor and a second switching element, particularly a lowside transistor as output driver, the first switching element and the second switching element of the respective output drivers having different source-drain resistances in the switched-on state.
