本發(fa)明總體上涉(she)及(ji)連(lian)接(jie)器(qi)(qi),更具體地,涉(she)及(ji)具有自供電匹配(pei)檢測的(de)連(lian)接(jie)器(qi)(qi)。
背景技術:
連(lian)接(jie)器用作連(lian)接(jie)電路的(de)(de)電接(jie)口。例如,在(zai)車(che)輛(liang)中(zhong),連(lian)接(jie)器將單(dan)個部件(jian)連(lian)接(jie)到(dao)形成電力(li)和/或通信(xin)分配(pei)系(xi)統的(de)(de)線(xian)束。當連(lian)接(jie)器在(zai)車(che)輛(liang)組裝時沒有(you)適(shi)當地(di)匹(pi)配(pei)時,連(lian)接(jie)器會由于在(zai)駕駛(shi)時車(che)輛(liang)的(de)(de)振動而稍后(hou)分開。這(zhe)(zhe)會導致(zhi)可(ke)靠性問(wen)題(ti),這(zhe)(zhe)又(you)導致(zhi)要維修車(che)輛(liang)。另外,不匹(pi)配(pei)的(de)(de)連(lian)接(jie)器可(ke)以用于獲得(de)對車(che)輛(liang)的(de)(de)通信(xin)總線(xian)的(de)(de)未授權(quan)訪(fang)問(wen)。
