Abstract

An interface circuit includes an interface terminal, a voltage detection device, an output driver and an enable logic. The interface terminal is configured to connect to an interface line. The voltage detection device is configured to detect a voltage present at the interface terminal. The output driver is configured to apply an output signal to the interface terminal. The enable logic is configured to generate an enable signal for the output driver based on an evaluation signal output by the voltage detection device, wherein the enable signal affects an enabling of the output driver if the evaluation signal shows that the voltage present at the interface terminal meets a given condition.
