Abstract

An electronic switching device and method for the detection of a detection element stream through a detection element and/or a temperature in said detection element. A first connection of the detection element is connected to a first transistor element and a second connection of the detection element is connected to a second transistor element. The base connections of the first and second transistor element are directly or indirectly connected to one another and the second transistor element (Q2) provides and/or modulates an electrical evaluation signal. The signal value of the electrical evaluation signal is directly or indirectly dependent on at least the detection element stream and/or the temperature in the detection element.
