Abstract

A load driving device includes a pulse driving circuit which has a capacitor between an output terminal and a ground potential, a level detection circuit which detects whether an output terminal voltage on the output terminal of the pulse driving circuit is at high level or at low level, a switching discharge unit for forming a discharge path through which electric charges charged in a capacitor are discharged by switching of a switch from a non-discharge side to a discharge side, and switching the switch to the discharge side over a discharge maintenance time in a state where the application of a pulse voltage by the pulse driving circuit stops and the output terminal voltage is maintained at high level, a post-discharge detection unit, and a determination unit.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a load driving device including a pulse driving circuit for repeatedly applying a pulse voltage to a resistive load. Background technique [0002] Generally, for example, as a load driving device that drives a resistive load such as a detection element for an oxygen sensor mainly made of a solid electrolyte body such as zirconia, a load driving device including a pulse driving circuit is used. A heater or the like for heating, and an output terminal of the pulse driving circuit are connected to the other end of a resistive load grounded at one end, and the pulse driving circuit repeatedly applies a pulse voltage to the resistive load. In this load driving device, an abnormality such as a short circuit to the ground potential or a power supply potential or a disconnection in the connection path may occur in the connection path between the pulse drive circuit and the resistive load. In particular, continuous driving of r...
