Abstract
Abstract An electronic filter circuit is described having first and second selective circuits each of said selective circuits having an input terminal for receiving an input voltage, each of said selection circuits comprising a first capacitor, an integrator means providing an output signal, switching means for connecting said capacitor alternatively between said input terminal and said integrator output, respectively between a common input-output terminal and said integrator input, in response to a switching signal, further comprising means for providing first and second switching signals to said first and second selection circuits, said signals having the same frequency but differing in phase whereby each of said first and second selective circuits provides for alterate sampling of an input signal and means for combining said integrator means output signals.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
164 words
An electronic circuit comprising: first and second selective means, each of said selective means being commonly connected to a first input terminal for receiving an applied input voltage, each said selective means comprising: a first capacitor, an integrator means having a second input terminal, a common terminal, and an output terminal providing an output signal, and switching means for connecting said capacitor alternatively between said first input terminal and said integrator means output terminal, and between said common terminal and said integrator means input terminal, in response to a switching signal; means for providing first and second switching signals to said first and second selective circuits, said switching signals having the same frequency but differing in phase whereby each of said first and second selective circuits provides for alternate sampling of an input voltage applied to said first input terminal; and means for combining the output signals at the output terminals of the respective integrator means provided in said first and second selective means.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
164 words
An electronic circuit comprising: first and second selective means, each of said selective means being commonly connected to a first input terminal for receiving an applied input voltage, each said selective means comprising: a first capacitor, an integrator means having a second input terminal, a common terminal, and an output terminal providing an output signal, and switching means for connecting said capacitor alternatively between said first input terminal and said integrator means output terminal, and between said common terminal and said integrator means input terminal, in response to a switching signal; means for providing first and second switching signals to said first and second selective circuits, said switching signals having the same frequency but differing in phase whereby each of said first and second selective circuits provides for alternate sampling of an input voltage applied to said first input terminal; and means for combining the output signals at the output terminals of the respective integrator means provided in said first and second selective means.
