Phase
Description
1
On the rising edge of input Cde:
  • time-out ti is launched,
  • input x changes to 1.
2
When time-out ti is over:
  • if the Ctrl signal changes to status 1 during the time-out interval, the x Aux output stays at 0 (normal situation),
  • if the Ctrl signal is not received, the x Aux output changes to 1 (type A error signal).
  • if the Ctrl signal falls back while the Cde input is at 1, the x Aux output changes to 1 (type B error signal).
A rising edge on the Acq input with the Ctrl input at 1 causes the x Aux to be set to 0.
3
On the falling edge of the Cde input, the x and x Aux outputs change to 0.
