摘要:
A monostable multivibrator including a gate circuit, a driver circuit responsive to the gate circuit, a differentiating circuit responsive to the driver circuit and a voltage comparison circuit responsive to the differentiating circuit where the gate circuit has a trigger pulse applied to a first input thereof and the output of the voltage comparison circuit is fed back to a second input thereof, and where the gate circuit, the driver circuit and the voltage comparison circuit are each non-saturating and include a constant current source and where clipping circuitry clips the output of the driver circuit to lessen the effect of noise produced by the constant current sources on the output of the multivibrator. Further clipping circuitry may be employed to prevent saturation of the gate circuit. A common voltage source may provide bias voltages for at least the above clipping circuits and a threshold voltage for the voltage comparison circuit. In addition to a bias power supply for the gate circuit, the driver circuit, and the voltage comparison circuit, a further supply may supply a reference voltage for clipping the output of the gate circuit and for determining the asymptotic characteristic of the output from the differentiating circuit.

Quadrature transposition stage has two signal channels, each containing a filter. A gyrator circuit is coupled between the filters. The result is that the two filters have exactly the same transfer function which reduces signal distortion in such circuits as an FSK demodulator.

A frequency discriminator having a bandwidth variable from a relatively narrow range to a very wide range in which the center frequency is simultaneously tunable over an extremely wide frequency range. The discriminator is insensitive to amplitude variations of the input signal and is capable of demodulating low level signals. The frequency discriminator is particularly useful for microwave frequency applications wherein the basic discriminator element is a ferrimagnetic resonator. The frequency discriminator forms a portion of several preferred embodiments including devices for the frequency control of signal sources, frequency measurement of signal sources, demodulation of frequency modulated signals and frequency tracking control for other ferrimagnetic devices.

A reference carrier signal is combined with a phase modulated signal of the same basic frequency to generate an output signal the amplitude of which varies in accordance with the phase difference between the phase modulated signal and the reference carrier. The permissible modulation angle is increased by vectorally adding the phase modulated signal with a reference signal having a phase different from the comparison reference carrier. The vector sum signal is amplitude-limited so that the signal produced by the comparison will only be responsive to phase angle and not amplitude.

A first transistor stage has a tuned output circuit. A coil coupled to the tuned output circuit has, in parallel with it, a series circuit of a resistance and a pair of diodes connected in parallel but with opposite polarity. Terminal of the resistance not connected to the pair of diodes may be connected to the top of the coupling coil via a resistance and is connected to the base of the subsequent transistor stage.
