Abstract

An electronic multiplier circuit is described in which an output voltage having an amplitude proportional to the product or quotient of the input signals is accomplished in a novel manner which facilitates simplicity of circuit construction and a high degree of accuracy in accomplishing the multiplying and dividing function. The circuit broadly comprises a multiplier tube in which the plate current is proportional to the voltage applied to a first control grid multiplied by the difference between voltage applied to a second control grid and the voltage applied to the first control grid. Means are provided to apply a first signal to be multiplied to the first control grid together with means for applying the sum of the first signal to be multiplied and a second signal to be multiplied to the second control grid whereby the plate current of the multiplier tube is proportional to the product of the first and second signals to be multiplied.

MULTIPLIER CIRCUIT

Patent Thomas, R

An electronic circuit is presented for automatically computing the product of two selected variables by multiplying the voltage pulses proportional to the variables. The multiplier circuit has a plurality of parallel resistors of predetermined values connected through separate gate circults between a first input and the output terminal. One voltage pulse is applied to thc flrst input while the second voltage pulse is applied to control circuitry for the respective gate circuits. Thc magnitude of the second voltage pulse selects the resistors upon which the first voltage pulse is imprcssed, whereby the resultant output voltage is proportional to the productmore » of the input voltage pulses« less

Patent Ko, W; Yeh, G

This patent describes a pulsing radiation detector system comprising means in a series circuit for emitting radiation in pulses of a selected, adjusted frequency (f), means responsive to pulses of radiation at the frequency for creating a control signal related to the received radiation, and a driving circuit for pulsing the radiation emitting means in the series circuit. The pulsing radiation detector further comprises: the driving circuit having means for creating voltage pulses in the series circuits. The pulses having a time base width (t) less than l/f in seconds, means of sensing current flow in the series circuit, meansmore »« less
Jitter compensation circuit

Patent Sullivan, J; Ball, D

The instantaneous V{sub co} signal on a charging capacitor is sampled and the charge voltage on capacitor C{sub o} is captured just prior to its discharge into the first stage of magnetic modulator. The captured signal is applied to an averaging circuit with a long time constant and to the positive input terminal of a differential amplifier. The averaged V{sub co} signal is split between a gain stage (G = 0.975) and a feedback stage that determines the slope of the voltage ramp applied to the high speed comparator. The 97.5% portion of the averaged V{sub co} signal is appliedmore »« less
