File Description [top]

U.S. Patents Fulltext, produced by Dialog, provides access to the complete text of all patents issued (in electronic form) by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) from 1971 to 1975.

Each record contains all front-page information, including title, author(s), assignee(s), related applications, classification data, cited references, and abstract. The complete text of the original patent usually includes a description of drawings (but not the actual drawings), the background/field of invention, a brief summary of the invention, the detailed description/embodiment of the invention, examples, and all claims.

Additional post-issuance legal status information is supplied by IFI/Plenum Data Corporation for patents that have been reassigned, reexamined, granted an extension beyond the normal 17/20-year period, expired prior to the normal 17/20-year period, or reinstated after late payment of the maintenance fee.

	`ABSTRACT`

/AB,/TX	`A bipolar analog-to-digital converter system is disclosed which is`
	`particularly suited as a digital volt meter or digital multimeter. The`
	`system includes an integrator and a solid state switching circuit`
	`alternately connecting to and is directly proportional to the integrator`
	`either an analog input signal of unknown magnitude and of either polarity`
	`or an analog reference signal of preselected magnitude and fixed polarity.`
	`A pulse generator supplies pulses at a constant rate to a digital counter.`
	`Provision is included for resetting the counter to a predetermined first`
	`count and for causing the switching means to apply the input signal to the`
	`integrator so that its output signal increases linearly from a reset value`
	`while the counter advances from the first count to a predetermined second`
	`count. Circuitry responsive to the second count causes the switching`
	`circuit to apply the reference signal to the integrator so that its output`
	`signal decreases linearly toward the reset value while the counter advances`
	`from the second count toward a predetermined third count. The reset value`
	`is reached prior to the third count for an analog input signal of a first`
	`polarity but after the third count if of an opposite polarity. A digital`
	`display and associated digital circuitry cause display of a decimal number`
	`corresponding to the complement of the count in the counter when the output`
	`signal from the integrator reaches the reset value prior to the third count`
	`but are responsive to the counter reaching the third count for causing a`
	`display of a decimal number corresponding to the true count in the counter`
	`when the integrator output signal then reaches the reset value. The decimal`
	`number displayed thus digitally corresponds to the true magnitude of the`
	`analog input signal.`

	`DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS`

/DW,/TX	`FIG. 1 is a schematic circuit diagram of an analog-to-digital converter`
	`of the present invention;`

	`FIG. 2 constitutes a series of traces which are representative of signals`
	`at various points in the circuit.`

	`Corresponding reference characters indicate corresponding parts`
	`throughout the drawings.`

	`BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION`
/SU,/TX	`This invention relates generally to analog-to-digital signal conversion`
	`systems and more particularly to such systems of the bipolar type, i.e.,`
	`those which convert either positive or negative analog input signals.`

	`The present disclosure is especially concerned with analog-to-digital`
	`(A-to-D) converters of the type used for digital volt meters (DVM's) or`
	`digital multimeters which indirectly, through time integration, first`
	`convert an analog input signal to a function of time and subsequently`
	`convert by means of a digital counter from the time function to a digital`
	`number representative of the magnitude of the analog input signal.`

	`Among such integration converters, one of two different techniques has`
	`typically been employed, viz., the so-called single slope technique or the`
	`so-called dual slope technique.`

	`(...)`
	`SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION`

/SU,/TX	`Among the objects of the present invention may be noted the provision of`
	`an improved bipolar analog-to-digital converter; a provision of such a`
	`converter of the dual slope type; the provision of such a converter`
	`employing a single reference source; the provision of such a converter`
	`which does not require analog polarity determining or analog polarity`
	`sensing circuits but which nevertheless converts an analog input signal of`
	`either polarity, the polarity being unknown, to a digital number which is`

	`(...)`
	`DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT`

/EM,/TX	`Referring now to FIG. 1, a preferred embodiment of the bipolar A-to-D`
	`converter system of this invention is adapted to convert an analog input`
	`signal, i.e., a voltage E sub in, of unknown magnitude (but within a`
	`preselected range) to a digital form and to display this magnitude`
	`digitally as a decimal number. For this purpose, it is preferred to employ`
	`multi-segment LED display devices. Illustrated are sevensegment LED`
	`numerical display devices ND1, ND2, ND3 and ND4 for the four digits to the`
	`right of a decimal point (not shown), each such device being adapted to`
	`play digits 1 through 0. These may each be of the commercial type MAN 1A`
	`for example, available from Monsanto Commercial Products Company. A`
	`four-segment polarity and numerical overflow LED display device ND5 (such`
	`as commercial type MAN 1001A from the same source) displays the digit 1 to`
	`the left of the decimal point and the polarity (+) or (-) of the input`
	`signal. Hence, a number from -1.9999 to +1.9999 can be displayed.`

	`(...)`

	`What is claimed is:`

/CM,/TX	`1. A bipolar dual-slope analog-to-digital converter system for converting`
	`an analog input signal of unknown polarity to a decimal number which is`
	`directly proportional to said analog input signal, said system comprising:`
	`a. an integrator for providing an output signal which is proportional to`
	`the time integral of the magnitude with respect to a single analog`
	`reference of preselected magnitude and polarity of signal applied to the`
	`input thereof;`
	`b. solid state switching means for alternately connecting to the input of`
	`said integrator either a first signal corresponding to an analog input`
	`signal of unknown magnitude and of either positive or negative polarity or`
	`a second signal constituting said single analog reference;`
	`c. a pulse generator for supplying pulses at a substantially constant`
	`pulse repetition rate;`
	`d. a digital counter for counting said pulses;`
	`e. automatic means for effecting determination of the polarity of said`
