Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 168 words
A current integrator capable of performing the function 1/c integral I dt, said integrator comprising: first and second integrator input terminals and first and second integrator output terminals; a capacitor having first and second terminals; first and second transistors with the collectors thereof interconnected with the first terminal of the capacitor; an isolation amplifier having a gain of unity and having input and output terminals; circuit means connecting the first terminal of the capacitor to the amplifier input terminal; circuit means connecting the bases of the first and second transistors, the output of the amplifier and the first integrator output terminal; circuit means connecting the capacitor second terminal with the second integrator output terminal; circuit means connecting the first and second integrator input terminals to the first and second transistor collectors respectively whereby electric current transmitted to the integrator input terminals will result in a voltage signal at the integrator output terminals which is the integral of the differences in the current received at the integrator input terminals.
