The self-excited oscillation circuit includes an npn transistor (21) and a pnp transistor (31) that are amplifier elements used for continuing oscillation. The npn transistor (21) operates when an oscillation wave is on the positive side. The pnp transistor (31) operates when an oscillation wave is on the negative side. In the self-excited oscillation circuit, clamping of oscillation waves similarly occurs on both positive and negative sides. Therefore, the oscillation waveform has symmetrical positive and negative portions or has minor asymmetry if any.

    摘要: An oscillator circuit includes a gate G.sub.11 of C-MOS type (Q.sub.1, Q.sub.2, and the like) having the function of increasing an operating current i with increasing operating frequency. A humidity sensor HS changing electric impedance thereof in accordance with humidity is arranged in part of the oscillator circuit. The oscillator circuit converts a change in humidity into a change in frequency, causes the gate G.sub.11 to convert the change in frequency into a change in operating current i, and outputs the converted change in operating current i. Further, in order to increase the change in operating current i due to the change in frequency, a series circuit consisting of a capacitor C.sub.13 and a resistor R.sub.17 is connected to the gate G.sub.11 as a capacitive load.

    摘要: An absolute humidity meter in which a humidity sensor changes an electrical impedance thereof-exponentially with respect to the relative humidity. A z-f converting circuit (impedance to frequency ) generates a pulse signal corresponding to the impedance. A time constant control differentiating circuit has an impedance of a voltage control variable impedance element changed exponentially by a control voltage, and outputs a differentiated signal obtained by differentiating the pulse signal. A waveform shaping circuit outputs a pulse signal train obtained by binary-valued the differentiated signal. An integrating circuit causes a first integrating circuit to obtain the control voltage by integrating the pulse signal train and a second integrating circuit to obtain an output voltage of a relative humidity signal by integrating the pulse signal train, and obtains an absolute humidity signal by causing at least one of these integrating circuit to control the control voltage or the output voltage with increasing temperature.
