Abstract:
A method for varying gain exponentially with respect to a control signal is provided. The method includes receiving a primary control signal. A secondary control signal is generated based on the primary control signal. The secondary control signal is provided to a variable gain amplifier and is operable to exponentially vary a gain for the variable gain amplifier with respect to the primary control signal.

Abstract:
Tuning of a filter circuit is accomplished by determining a real RC time constant value for the filter circuit, then comparing the real RC vale to a predetermined RC value. If the real RC value does not match the predetermined RC value, the real RC value is varied (e.g. using a number of capacitors in a capacitor arr
Abstract:
An adjustable RF microwave tuning post for use in an RF cavity is disclosed. It is comprised of a flexible integrally-formed hollow tuning post disposed in the RF cavity. A drive shaft extending internally of the tuning post is provided to vary the dimensions of the tuning post. The drive shaft is connected to the tuning post at the top end thereof and connected at the other end of the drive shaft to an adjusting nut. The tuning post is made flexible by the use of bellows, which in a preferred embodiment of the invention is located along the side walls thereof.
Abstract:
The present subject matter is directed to an adaptive load circuit for use with traffic light control systems so as to permit operation using low current consumption lamps where the traffic light control systems were originally manufactured for operation with higher current consuming lamps. The adaptive load circuit provides a mechanism whereby an existing traffic light control system is fooled into accepting use of a low current consuming lamp by creating a specifically timed signal during an interval that the traffic light control system normally checks to determined lamp load characteristics.
Abstract:
A method for generating a temperature-compensated control signal is provided. The method includes receiving a constant control signal. A temperature-compensated control signal is generated based on the constant control signal. The temperature-compensated control signal is provided to a variable gain amplifier. The temperature-compensated control signal is operable to cause the variable gain amplifier to function independently of temperature.
