Abstract

Abstract An abnormal signal detecting device, comprising a signal sampling and conversion circuit for sampling a predetermined number of data points along an analog signal and generating digital sampled data signals representative thereof; a memory circuit, connected to the signal sampling and conversion circuit, for storing the digital sampled data; and a consistency detecting circuit, connected to the memory circuit, for comparing at least three consecutive digital sampled data signals and generating an output representing an abnormal condition whenever at least three consecutive digital sampled data signals are the same.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 85 words
An abnormal signal detecting device, comprising: a sampling circuit means for sampling a predetermined number of data points along alternating current (AC) signal and generating digital sampled data signal representative thereof; memory means, connected to said sampling circuit means, for storing said digital sampled data; consistency detecting circuit means, connected to said memory means, for comparing at least three consecutive digital sampled data signals and generating an output representing an abnormal condition whenever said at least three consecutive digital sampled data signals are the same.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 85 words
An abnormal signal detecting device, comprising: a sampling circuit means for sampling a predetermined number of data points along alternating current (AC) signal and generating digital sampled data signal representative thereof; memory means, connected to said sampling circuit means, for storing said digital sampled data; consistency detecting circuit means, connected to said memory means, for comparing at least three consecutive digital sampled data signals and generating an output representing an abnormal condition whenever said at least three consecutive digital sampled data signals are the same.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 26 words
An abnormal signal detecting device, according to claim 3, wherein: said sampled data signals are sampled at 30° intervals along each cycle of said AC signal.
