    摘要: A protection switching circuit includes a plurality of ferrite modules arranged in a matrix, wherein the matrix includes a plurality of columns and a plurality of rows. The protection switching circuit further includes a primary control module configured to select a specific ferrite module to be polarized and a redundant control module configured to select a specific ferrite module to be polarized, wherein the redundant control module is used when the primary control module is not used. The protection switching circuit further includes a plurality of first switches, wherein the plurality of first switches couples the plurality of columns of the matrix to a first and second charging circuit. The protection switching circuit further includes a plurality of second switches, wherein the plurality of second switches are organized into pairs, wherein each pair in the plurality of second switches couples a respective row of the matrix to a reference potential.

    摘要: A railroad vital relay control circuit has a first input for receiving a reference alternating current signal of a selected frequency and a second input for receiving a track alternating current signal having the selected frequency of the reference signal and a predetermined phase and magnitude relationship therewith. A magnetic core provides a logical AND function and has two input arms and an intermediate output arm. There is a winding on each of the input arms and a winding on the output arm. There are frequency tuned voltage limiting circuit elements connecting the first input and a first one of the magnetic core input windings and the second input and the second input winding of the magnetic core. The magnetic core has an output winding on the intermediate arm which is connected to a vital relay. The input windings on the magnetic core are connected to produce flux in the same direction in the output arm. In phase signals of the selected frequency at the magnetic core input windings provide sufficient flux in the output arm to induce a signal in the output winding to hold the vital relay in an operated position.

    摘要: A keyboard having a plurality of selectively operable matrix elements, each having an actuated and an unactuated state. The state of each matrix element is sequentially scanned and sensed and temporarily stored in a memory. A level detector is coupled to the matrix elements and to the memory means for comparison of the sensed state to a threshold level and for producing an output representative of each comparison. Feedback circuitry is coupled to the memory means for transmitting a feedback signal representative of the previous scan state of each matrix element. The level detector responds to the feedback signal to vary the relative levels of each of the sensed states and its respective threshold level in response to the previous scan state of the matrix element currently scanned.
