Abstract

Abstract A VOLTAGE THAT VARIES LINERALY WITH LIGHT INTENSITY VARIATION IS GENERATED BY AN AMPLIFIER HAVING A DIFFERENTIAL INPUT STAGE CONNECTED TO A LIGHT RESPONSIVE DIODE. TWO HIGH GAIN TANSISTORS ARE INCLUDED IN THE DIFFERENTIAL INPUT STAGE TO PROVIDE AMPLIFICATON OF THE SIGNAL CURRENTS OF THE LIGHT RESPONSIVE DIODE. IN A CAMERA SHUTTER AND APERTURE CONTROL SYSTEM, THE LINEARLY VARYING LIGHT INTENSITY VOLTAGE IS AMPLIFIED TO CONTROL TWO TRESHOLD DETECTOR CIRCUITS. AN INHIBITING CIRCUIT PREVENTS ONE OF THE THREHOLD DETECTOR CIRCUITS FROM RESPNDING TO THE LIGHT INTENSITY VOLTAGE UNTIL THE FIRST THRESHOLD CIRCUIT HAS COMPLETED ITS DESIRED OPERATION.
