External 10k Resistor Detection Circuit with FAKRA Code D Connector
The RDC.FKD.001 is an External Diagnostic 10kOhm Circuit to aid with detection in applications where the user may want to monitor the connection between the antenna and radio module to ensure there is no downtime in connectivity. This innovative product has been designed to be used as a simple plug-and-play option for circuit detection where typically, a complicated internal circuit would be required. The RDC Series is perfect for prototyping and in places where the detection circuit has been considered after the initial installation of the antenna.
Typical Applications Include:
- Telematics
- E-Call Systems
- Critical Communications
- Smart Metering
The ability to detect and diagnose antenna connectivity is a valuable feature for many system integrators, especially for automotive applications. The ability to detect if the antenna is connected to the application is useful for diagnosing installation or production problems as well as any tampering with the system.
