A vehicle door handle circuit coupled to a vehicle control unit includes a transmission antenna circuit, a control circuit and an actuation sensor via which the door handle circuit receives DC voltage for supplying the control circuit or AC voltage for controlling the antenna circuit. The antenna circuit includes a series oscillating circuit with an inductor and a capacitor. A series circuit including a first capacitor and a first rectifier is connected between two contacts and in parallel with the antenna circuit allows part of the AC voltage signal to be used for the voltage supply of the control circuit. A second rectifier connects one of the two contacts to the series circuit. A third rectifier is also provided in order to feed DC voltage to the vehicle control unit.
A vehicle door handle circuit in a vehicle door handle, configured for coupling with a vehicle-sided control device, the vehicle door handle circuit comprising an antenna circuit for emitting a signal to be sent, a control circuit and at least one actuation sensor, the control circuit being coupled with the actuation sensor for detecting an actuation, the antenna circuit comprising a series resonant circuit having a resonant circuit inductance and a resonant circuit capacitance,
