ANALOG COUNTER AND IMAGING DEVICE INCORPORATING SUCH A COUNTER

An analog counter includes, for at least one step, an input for receiving electric pulses and a means for modifying, by consecutive increments or decrements, a storage voltage for each received electrical pulse, a means for resetting the storage voltage, and a comparator for comparing the storage vo...

Zusammenfassung:An analog counter includes, for at least one step, an input for receiving electric pulses and a means for modifying, by consecutive increments or decrements, a storage voltage for each received electrical pulse, a means for resetting the storage voltage, and a comparator for comparing the storage voltage with a threshold voltage and adapted to generate exceedance information. The counter further includes a control means adapted to control the resetting means in the event of the simultaneous detection of exceedance information from the comparator and of an input pulse.
