Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 69 words
A system for converting frequency shift keyed input signals to non-return-to-zero output signals comprising the combination of: timing means responsive to the input signals for producing a timing signal with a predetermined time duration; and output means responsive to the input signals and to said timing signal for producing an output signal concurrent with said timing signal when an input signal occurs during the duration of the timing signal.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 69 words
A system for converting frequency shift keyed input signals to non-return-to-zero output signals comprising the combination of: timing means responsive to the input signals for producing a timing signal with a predetermined time duration; and output means responsive to the input signals and to said timing signal for producing an output signal concurrent with said timing signal when an input signal occurs during the duration of the timing signal.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 16 words
The invention as claimed in claim 1 wherein said timing means includes a retriggerable monostable multivibrator.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 43 words
The invention as claimed in claim 2 wherein said output means includes a D-type flip-flop coupled to receive the input signals at a clock terminal, the timing signal at a data terminal, and a complement of the timing signal at a reset terminal.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 19 words
The invention as claimed in claim 1 wherein said predetermined time duration is approximately 75% of a cell time.
