    Abstract: The present circuit is applicable to buried channel charge coupled devices (CCD's) of the type having an input circuit which employs a "skimming" technique for producing a charge representing an input signal. A given amount of charge initially is present in an input potential well of the CCD and an amount of charge representing an input signal is skimmed therefrom for propagation down the CCD, leaving behind a residual charge which continuously remains in the input potential well. The gain of the input circuit of the CCD is controlled by controlling the amount of this residual charge either in open loop fashion or by means of feedback. A comb filter suitable for separating the luminance and chrominance components of a television signal which includes this circuit is also described.

    Abstract: When the frequency of an input sound signal applied to a shifting type echo-machine is close to that of the shift pulse thereof, a false signal appears at the output terminal of the echo-machine, in addition to the other type of noise signal caused by inclusion of the shift pulse component in the output of the same. The present invention is an echo-machine provided with first and second low pass filters, arranged before and after the delay element included in the echo-machine respectively, with a variable cut-off frequency which varies in accordance with the frequency of the shift pulse thereby eliminating such an erroneous signal and the shift pulse component from the output signal of the echo-machine. In its more specific aspects, the echo-machine is provided with low pass filters with a variable cut-off frequency employing an active filter containing one or more integrating circuit of which the input signal is interrupted in accordance with the frequency of a clock pulse to determine the cut-off frequency of the active filter.

    Abstract: In illustrated embodiments, at least one analogue shift register has a number of parallel inputs and one series output. A number of individual evaluating circuits receive the signal to be filtered and supply respective output quantities of charge equal to the product of the difference between the relevant signal value and a predetermined minimum or maximum value, and a respective individual evaluation factor. The output of each evaluating circuit can be connected via a switching element to an associated parallel input. The capacity of every storage position of the shift register is at least such that it is always able to accommodate the maximum quantity of charge supplied by the preceding storage position, and when the storage position has a parallel input, can additionally accommodate the maximum quantities of charge supplied by the associated evaluating circuit (s). Various modifications are disclosed for reducing the space requirement of a transversal filter when implemented, for example, as a CCD.

    Abstract: This specification describes a charge-transfer device transversal filter chip in which an input signal is fed in parallel into a number of channels the outputs of which are summed together to provide the desired transversal filter transfer function. Each channel contains an analog shift register, a signal splitter and a polarity selector. The shift registers are of unequal length to provide a different delay thru each channel. The signal splitter provides a plurality of signal paths thru each channel while the polarity selector determines whether a given path in a given channel is added or subtracted in the summation to determine the gain of the given channel in the summation.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a radio system comprising mixing means for simultaneously receiving electronic input signals consisting of a plurality of non-overlapping frequency bands and first clocking signals having a first selectable frequence. The mixing means frequency shifts the input signals by the first selectable frequency. A charge transfer device transversal filter has inputs coupled to receive the frequency shifted signals. The charge transfer device filters one frequency band from the frequency shifted signals and further frequency shifts the selected band in response to a second clocking signal. Demodulator means is coupled to the output of the charge transfer device filter for demodulating the selected one further downshifted frequency band.

    Abstract: In known scales, switching from a fine to a course measurement range automatically decreases the resolution by at least one place. Since the change in range takes place in dependence upon the total weight applied to the scale, displayed values after taring still lack at least one significant digit relative to the fine indication. In the present invention this digit is reactivated automatically upon activation of the tare key if the weight after taring is less than the predetermined fine range limiting weight.

    Abstract: An input stage for a transversal charge transfer filter, which suppresses parasitic image frequencies. It comprises two parallel channels to which the input signal is applied simultaneously. Sampling of the signal is performed in each channel with a periodicity Te, and a relative phase-shift of Te/2. The two samples are then added in order to eliminate components having periodicities in the neighborhood of Te. The present invention relates to low-pass filters using the phenomenon of electrical charge transfer occurring in a semiconductor. It relates more particularly to an input stage for this kind of CTD (Charge Transfer Device) filter, which attenuates parasitic frequencies. The design of CTD low-pass filters, often referred to as transversal filters, poses a classic problem due to the fact that the input stage is a sampling stage. In other words, when the input signal contains a component of frequency Fs close to the sampling frequency Fe, by a process of frequency mixing, two parasitic signals at the image frequencies Fe + Fs and Fe - Fs are created. Since we are concerned with a low-pass filter, the top image frequency (Fe + Fs) is automatically eliminated but the bottom image frequency (Fe - Fs) can be transmitted by the filter and appear in the output signal if the condition Fe - Fs
