Abstract

A frequency monitoring circuit includes a monitoring lead, a D-type flip-flop, and a one-shot. The D-type flip-flop has a switchable logic state, a clear input, and a clock input. The one-shot has an input and an output connected to the D-type flip-flop clear input. The monitoring lead connects the one-shot input to the latch clock input for switching the logic state of the D-type flip-flop based on change in voltage applied to the monitoring lead.
