  "textContent": "A signal interface for a vehicle has a sensor unit and a main control unit connected via a wiring harness. The sensor unit includes a sensor chip configured to carry out a SENT protocol and has outlets for a supply voltage line, a data transmission line, and a ground connection. A voltage regulator and a filter with ESD/EMC protection are connected to the supply voltage line, where overvoltage protection is upstream of a data line filter and ESD/EMC protection is downstream of the data line filter. The main control unit includes a voltage regulator, ESD/EMC protection, and a module configured to switch off the ground supply in the event of a current derived from the overvoltage protection. A pull-up device and a transceiver are connected to the data transmission line. The control unit has separate sender and receiver paths for controlling the transceiver.",
