ABSTRACT:
A circuit arrangement for monitoring a binary signal having at least one level shift within a characteristic waiting time, such circuit including two flip-flops which receive control pulses at intervals at least as long as the characteristic waiting time. In order to enable the two flip-flops to employ the same clock pulses, a gate circuit is assigned to each of them, the output of which is connected to the data input of the assigned flip-flop. If a control pulse is present, the first gate circuit ensures that the first flip-flop can switch to its set state, while the second gate ensures that the state of the second flip-flop is switched to the inverse of the state of the first flip-flop. If a control pulse is not present, the first flip-flop can only be switched to its reset state when the binary signal to be monitored has the binary value 1, while the second flip-flop cannot switch from its existing state.
