ABSTRACT:
A fault tolerant circuit arrangement includes: an input; an output; a first circuit element, a second circuit element, a third circuit element, and a fourth circuit element, provided in such a manner that the first and second circuit elements are connected in series between the input and the output to form a first series combination, and the third and fourth circuit elements are connected in series between the input and the output to form a second series combination, the first series combination being connected in parallel with the second series combination between the input and the output; and, a control element connected between an interconnection point of the first and second circuit elements and an interconnection point of the third and fourth circuit elements. The control element is switchable by a control signal between a conducting mode in which current flow is enabled between the interconnection points and a non-conducting mode in which current flow is prevented between the interconnection points.
