Abstract
A protective circuit for protecting an electronic circuit from transient excess voltages, in particular, a series connection of at least two voltage-limiting circuit components being provided between a first connection terminal and a second connection terminal of an input of the protective circuit, each of the two voltage-limiting circuit components having at least one semiconductor element. At least one output terminal is provided at an output for connecting the electronic circuit to be protected to the protective circuit, the output terminal being connected to a circuit node disposed between the two voltage-limiting circuit components.
