摘要: A multimeter converts an input voltage into decibels. Preferably, the input voltage is converted into dbm. The multimeter includes a table of voltage values wherein each entry is associated with a given decibel value. The input voltage is compared with entries in the table to locate a first entry which is larger than the input voltage. A second entry having a lower value than the input voltage is then located in the table. A fractional value that is indicative of where the input voltage lies at a range between the first entry and the second entry is calculated using the first and second entries. The fractional value is added to a decibel value corresponding the second entry to produce a decibel value for the input voltage. The input voltage may be scaled down into an appropriate operational voltage range and then the calculated decibel value may be scaled up to compensate for this scaling down.

摘要: An adjustable RMS circuit for an input signal is first compressed by use of a bipolar logarithmic converter. The low-level, high-frequency accuracy of the converter may be improved by increasing its gain in response to the presence of such components. An inverted half wave rectified signal derived from the compressed signal is then combined with a half intensity signal derived from the compressed signal to produce a signal which is substantially equal to the absolute value of the compressed signal. A reference signal of variably selectable level is further combined with the combined signal to provide an output signal offset to a desired threshold level.

摘要: An incoming a-c signal, whose amplitude is to be measured, successively passes through several decadic attenuator stages settable by respective cascaded decadic stages of a reversible counter. The attenuated signal is rectified and its voltage, or the RMS value thereof obtained from a squarer, gives rise to a calibration current, opposed by a constant reference current, for charging a capacitor of a current/frequency converter with a resulting current corresponding to their difference. Two threshold detectors in that converter, responding to a capacitor charge of either polarity beyond a predetermined limit, trigger a monoflop which fully or partly discharges the capacitor and steps the counter forward or backward as determined by a polarity sensor connected across the capacitor. A retriggerable second monoflop, responsive to the trailing edge of each stepping pulse, enables the second-lowest counter stage to be stepped out of turn when these pulses follow one another at high rate. The readings of the counter stages are also fed to a digital/analog converter working into a decibel meter.

摘要: Electrical noise is suppressed on an input signal by squaring the input signal and any noise thereon, removing the sinusoidal terms in the squared output (as by averaging), subtracting the d.c. noise component, and taking the square root of the remainder, so as to produce an r.m.s. dependent, substantially noise free output. If desired, the noise suppression circuitry may be combined in a low signal measuring instrument in which the input signal is repetitively sampled and freed of noise in the manner described, the output then being measured on a d.c. meter.

摘要: The precision measuring amplifier includes one or more amplifiers, a number of fixed attenuators, a RMS detector and a logarithmic converter for converting the output of the RMS detector to a logarithmic value. A number of fixed voltage sources each providing a voltage precisely related to the attenuation of a corresponding attenuator, are selectively coupled to a summing amplifier to which the logarithmic converter output is also connected. The number of attenuators connected either manually or automatically into amplifier apparatus at one time is dependent on the input signal level, and for every attenuator connected into the amplifier apparatus, a voltage source is connected to the summing amplifier to provide an output signal proportional to the logarithm of the RMS value of the input signal.

摘要: A double beam optical null spectrophotometer having sample and reference optical beam paths, a detector common to both paths, and an attenuator feedback loop from the detector for adjusting the position of an optical attenuator in the reference beam path to balance the energy in the two paths. The slider of an attenuator transmitting potentiometer follows the position of the optical attenuator and a signal level sensitive impedance network connected to the slider calibrates the potentiometer such that an output signal therefrom indicates the true transmittance of a sample in the sample beam path over a range of transmittance values from zero to one hundred percent transmittance.

摘要: Apparatus for measuring the root mean square of a signal by applying the signal across a resistance which is the input to an amplifier and controlling the resistance so that a constant level of current will always flow into a multiplier. The average output from the multiplier is compared with a fixed reference, and any error therebetween is effective through servo control mechanisms to vary the input resistance as necessary to reduce the error to zero. The input resistance is coupled to an output resistance and the value of the output resistance will be proportional to the voltage of the signal being measured.
