Abstract

Abstract A device for detecting the envelope of a single-polarity pulsating voltage comprising a fixed memory capacitor with a charge circuit and a discharge circuit, a memory cell controlling the capacitor discharge circuit, a circuit for comparison of the pulsating voltage with the capacitor charge voltage connected to one input of the memory cell, and a source of gate pulses recurring at the pulsation frequency connected to the second input of the memory cell.
