ABSTRACT:
Failsafe logic circuits, for instance AND-, NOR-, NAND- and OR-circuits are devised at which at least one signal input is connected to a signal output via an optocoupler. Herewith dimensioning problems with respect to transistors and coupling capacitors as known from conventional failsafe logic circuits do not appear. Further on an optocoupler cannot fail in such a manner that between a photodiode and a phototransistor a galvanic coupling may arise.
