Abstract

Embodiments relate to an apparatus comprising a first measurement bridge circuit. The first measurement bridge circuit comprises a first half bridge for providing a first half bridge signal in response to a quantity to be measured and a second half bridge for providing a second half bridge signal in response to the quantity. The apparatus further comprises a second measurement bridge circuit. The second measurement bridge circuit comprises a third half bridge for providing a third half bridge signal in response to the quantity and a fourth half bridge for providing a fourth half bridge signal in response to the quantity. The apparatus also comprises an error detector. The error detector is configured to determine an error signal indicative of an error of the measurement of the quantity based on a combination of the first, the second, the third and the fourth half bridge signal.
