IMPROVEMENTS IN OR RELATING TO VOLTAGE MEASURING CIRCUITS

Patent ·
OSTI ID:4232122

A voltage measuring circuit is described which can be used effectively in a multi-channel pulse amplitude analyzer. The circuit comprises an amplifier, a feedback connection for the amplifier, a switch for changing the sign of the feedback, and a capacitor. With negative feedback the amplifier charges the capacitor to the peak voltage of an input pulse; by switching to positive feedback the drop of the capacitor voltage to its original value is detected. The amplifier may comprise a longtailed pair in cascade with a secondary emission pentode so that the switch can be triggered by a signal from the long-tailed pair. (T.R.H.)
