SIGNAL SENSING ARRANGEMENT

摘要

A signal sensing arrangement in a code translator for distinguishing signals at first points from noise caused by these signals at other points by gating the signals in gating circuits via a strobe pulse generator. Each of the first points is coupled to a separate gate via a shaping circuit designed to improve the signal-to-noise ratio. The strobe pulses are coupled to the other inputs to the gate circuits. The arrangement is capable of distinguishing between signal and noise even if the peak amplitudes of both occur substantially at the same time and/or the signal amplitude experiences rapid fall-off after peaking.
