A TRANSISTORIZED CIRCUIT FOR RECORDING CONTACT RESPONSES

The paper describes a transistorized circuit for recording contact responses in animals. The animal, acting as an antenna, applies an 8000-cycle-per-second frequency signal to a conductor surface (e.g., a metal drinking tube) and triggers a multivibrator which operates an A.C. relay. The relay is ty...

Zusammenfassung:The paper describes a transistorized circuit for recording contact responses in animals. The animal, acting as an antenna, applies an 8000-cycle-per-second frequency signal to a conductor surface (e.g., a metal drinking tube) and triggers a multivibrator which operates an A.C. relay. The relay is typically used to switch another (external) relay having multiple contacts with high current ratings in order to operate counters, stepping switches, etc.
