Abstract

An electrical system is described which comprises at least one function board and at least one voltage converter. The function board and the voltage converter are connected such that a voltage generated by the voltage converter is supplied to the function board. The electrical circuit comprises a power control circuit for controlling the voltage generated by the voltage converter wherein the power control circuit is clamped if the voltage converter is turned off.

Claims (9)

1. An electrical system comprising:

at least one funtion board and at least one voltage converter, wherein the function board and the voltage converter are connected such that a voltage provided by the voltage converter is supplied to the function board; and

a power control circuit for providing a control signal for controlling the voltage generated by the voltage converter wherein the control signal of the power control circuit is clamped if the voltage converter is turned off.

2. The electrical circuit of claim 1 wherein the control signal of the power control circuit is limited if the voltage converter is turned off.

3. The electrical circuit of claim 1 comprising an operational amplifier with a switch connected between one of its inputs and its output wherein the switch is closed if the voltage converter is turned off.

4. The electrical circuit of claim 3 wherein the inputs of the operational amplifier are connected to an actual voltage and a reference voltage and wherein the switch is connected to the input of the actual voltage.

5. The electrical circuit of claim 3 wherein a capacitor is connected n parallel to the switch.

6. The electrical circuit of claim 3 wherein the output of the operational amplifier is connected to the voltage converter as a control signal.

7. The electrical system of claim 1 wherein the function board is a o-called channel board for testing the channels of a communication system.
