    摘要: A system and method for employing variable magnetic flux bias in an amplifier. The amplifier system comprises an output transformer and a magnetic sensor configured to sense a first magnetic flux of the output transformer. The magnetic sensor generates a flux signal responsive to the first magnetic flux. Control circuitry is configured to receive the flux signal and to generate a control signal responsive to the flux signal. A winding is configured to receive the control signal and to induce a second magnetic flux within the output transformer responsive to the control signal, the second magnetic flux having opposite polarity to the first magnetic flux. The second magnetic flux may maintain a non-zero quiescent magnetic bias level within the output transformer, or may substantially cancel or null the DC and low-frequency subsonic components of the first magnetic flux.

    摘要: A differential amplifier circuit suitable for amplifying a faint signal, such as the output of a magnetic sensor including a Hall element. The differential amplifier circuit includes switching units which are provided at the input and output terminals of a differential amplifier to switch the polarity of the input and output signals, and low pass filters which are provided at the output terminals to remove the switching frequency component from the output signal, thus working as an ideal amplifier with no offset voltage. Furthermore, by alternating the polarity of driving current of the Hall element for inverting the polarity of the input signal of the differential amplifier, an error voltage of the Hall element caused by location error of the output electrodes and the voltage drop across them can be eliminated at the same time.

    摘要: An integrated circuit includes an epitaxial layer. In a near central region thereof is formed a symmetrical array of four equal sized Hall cells that are connected in parallel to form one Hall element. A moat surrounds the Hall element consisting of two concentric isolation walls separated by a band of opposite conductivity epitaxial material. The output of the Hall element is connected to the input of an adjacent differential amplifier that has two extraordinarily large amplifying transistors with emitter areas each equal to about a half of a Hall area, for achieving much better control over the relative dimensions of these emitters and thus over the amplifier offset voltage from chip to chip. The emitter resistors are likewise made very wide and both pairs of components are physically arranged to have balanced thermal coupling to the Hall element for further enhancing control of offset voltage.

    摘要: An isolation amplifier circuit is described that utilizes a magnetic field in combination with a Hall effect device to isolate input signals and output signals. The input signal is applied to a conducting coil that produces a magnetic field in a Hall effect material through which current is flowing. Because of the Hall effect, terminals on the sides of the Hall effect material can provide a voltage difference. This voltage difference is amplified and applied to a second conducting coil. The second conducting coil is adapted to provide a magnetic field in the opposite direction from the magnetic field produced by the input signal. When the magnetic fields are identical, no difference in current flowing through the two terminals will be present. The output signal of the difference amplifier circuit will be a function of the input signal. According to a second embodiment, apparatus is included for cancelling ambient magnetic fields. A second isolation amplifier circuit is arranged to have a spatial orientation rotated 180.degree. from a first isolation amplifier. With this configuration, ambient magnetic fields will have cancelling effects. The Hall effect device can be implemented in a PNP transistor with a split collector. The isolation amplifier can be fabricated with monolithic technology.

    摘要: A wide band linear amplifier comprising first and second heavily damped Josephson devices and associated superconducting circuitry. Each Josephson device has a parallel path with a load resistor connected thereto. The parallel path connected to the first Josephson device is positioned to operate as a control current path for the second Josephson device. Both Josephson devices are operated on linear portions of their respective gain curves. The output current through the second load resistance is a linear amplification of the input current; the latter being applied as control current to the first Josephson device.
