Re: short / open circuit of a sensor

We in the controls business often set a sensors active range for .5 to
4.5 volts. So if we read <.5 or > 4.5 we know the sensor is bad.

Cuts down on the resolution I know, but when cost of believing a bad
sensor is high, as in flight controls we make that tradeoff.

hi,
How can we find out the short circuit / open circuit of a sensor or
something else which are connected to the microcontroller's port pin?
Is there any algorithm available to check the fault of the line which
will be implement into the software? Thanks
