Villanova outlasts St. John's for a Big East road win
Jan 11, 2014, 4:27 PM EDT
It wasn't pretty, but Villanova held off St. John's on Saturday for a 74-67 Big East win in Madison Square Garden. The Wildcats only shot 35 percent from the field in the win, but held St. John's to 34 percent from the field and 2-for-12 from the three-point line as Villanova outlasted the Red Storm for the victory.
The Wildcats never led by more than nine points and through the first 14:30 of the second half, the game was within three points the entire time, but a 10-1 run catapulted Villanova to a lead they would never relinquish.
Playing in his hometown, JayVaughn Pinkston had a solid effort for Villanova, going for 15 points and 10 rebounds, and he was helped by a balanced Villanova effort that also saw freshman guard Josh Hart go for 14 points off the bench. Point guard Ryan Arcidiacono played 35 minutes and scored 13 points and Darrun Hilliard struggled to 1-for-1o shooting from the field, but finished with 10 points, as his three-pointer with a little over five minutes left in the second half gave the Wildcats its biggest lead of the game at 63-56.
Daniel Ochefu also added 10 points for the Wildcats and their balanced scoring and sound defensive effort was enough to get past St. John's.
The win wasn't pretty for Villanova, but Jay Wright has to be happy that his team was able to make one final push during a game in which they struggled offensively to earn the win. If three-pointers aren't falling for Villanova — and they weren't on Saturday, as the Wildcats shot 5-for-16 from beyond the arc — they can be in trouble, but by earning a road conference win over St. John's it proved that Villanova's defense can carry them to victory in some games in spite of poor perimeter shooting.

An ASK carrier current digital data transceiver for transparent transfer of data between a broadband communication port and a baseband port consists mainly of an integrated circuit with transmit/receive logic for providing the required transparency and the ability to sense a contending signal.

5. The transceiver of claim 3 further including a comparator wherein said integrated carrier signals are compared with a reference level for producing a rectangular digital waveform.
6. The transceiver of claim 5 further comprising means for modifying the reference level of said comparator by an amount from said comparator to provide hysteresis in said comparator.
7. The transceiver of claim 1 wherein said baseband input/output port means comprises an open collector driver connected to the output of said detector means to provide output detected carrier frequency signals.
8. The transceiver of claim 1 further including a second filter connected to the output of said broadband input/output port means for selectively passing carrier frequency signals to said dynamic limiter means.

Microprocessors are finding increasing applications as intelligent control devices in the home as well as in industry. When a plurality of such microprocessors are interconnected by means of a common data bus, various protocols are used for orderly information transfer, such as described within U.S. patent application Ser. No. 561,483 filed 12-14-83 of E. K. Howell et al, which application is incorporated herein for purposes of reference.
When the common data bus includes a broadband communication bus, such as a power line communication bus which contains a modulated high frequency carrier signal along with the power frequency, transceivers are used which must be capable of converting the modulated carrier to baseband data for utilization by the microprocessor as well as converting the baseband data from the microprocessor to modulated carrier for transmission on the power line communication bus. State of the art transceiver devices require four terminals for interconnection with a microprocessor to provide input data, output data and control of the transmitter and receiver sections of the transceiver, and hence are not suitable for direct connection to a two-conductor baseband data bus. Such transceiver devices also exhibit a low impedance to the broadband terminals in both receive and transmit modes of operation, hence causing attenuation of the carrier signals when a plurality of transceivers are connected to a two-conductor broadband data bus.
A carrier current digital data transceiver requiring only two terminals for interconnection with a microprocessor or a baseband data bus is described within the aforementioned Howell et al application. The Howell et al transceiver is designed using discrete components which, although achieving excellent results in industrial applications, do not readily lend to miniaturization, such as when required to be used with home appliances connected to the power bus by wall outlets.
The carrier current digital data transceiver of the instant invention provides transparent interface function between broadband data and baseband data buses along with sufficient logic and impedance control to overcome all the aforementioned problems involved with several microprocessors along a common data bus. The selection of circuit elements and functions allows the transceiver to be fabricated within an integrated circuit in a compact and efficient configuration.
A carrier current digital data transceiver is designed for implementation within an analog integrated circuit for communication of data at 1000 bits per second via ASK 100% modulation, i.e., on-off keying, of a carrier frequency in the 100 to 200 kilohertz range. An open collector driver coupled with a NOR gate at the baseband input/output port allows "listen-while-talk" function. A dynamic limiter consisting of a variable transconductance amplifier, low pass filter and dual polarity peak comparator function to remove noise from the carrier signal prior to demodulation of the carrier. A tri-state power amplifier provides a low impedance to the broadband terminals in the transmit mode and a high impedance in the receive mode.

FIG. 2 is a circuit diagram of the external components external to the integrated circuit utilized within the transceiver circuit of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a circuit diagram of the dynamic limiter within the transceiver circuit of FIG. 1;
FIG. 4 is a circuit diagram of the gated level detector within the transceiver circuit of FIG. 1;

FIG. 6 is a circuit diagram of the level detector, fast integrator, dual slope integrator, comparator, hysteresis, I/O baseband driver and T/R control logic within the transceiver circuit of FIG. 1;
FIG. 7 is a circuit diagram of the gated power amplifier within the transceiver circuit of FIG. 1; and
FIGS. 8-10 are circuit diagram of the integrated circuit utilized within the transceiver circuit of FIG. 1.
The block diagram of FIG. 1 shows the main functions of the transceiver 10. The baseband I/O port 11 is a single terminal, referenced to the negative DC power supply bus, and is commonly connected through a resistor to a positive supply voltage of 5 V, for example. The baseband port voltage is normally high, corresponding to the absence of carrier at the broadband port, and may be pulled low by the internal open-collector driver 28 in response to presence of a carrier at the broadband I/O port 12, indicating data is received, or it may be pulled low externally, by any one of several digital devices, such as microprocessors suitably connected with similar open-collector drivers, thereby causing a carrier signal to be produced at the broadband port 12 for transmission.
The transmit/receive (T/R) control is obtained by a NOR gate 27 which produces high output level only when the baseband port 11 is pulled low externally. The NOR gate output disables the receiving path via inverter 26, line 35 and gated level detector 21 and enables a tristate power amplifier 25 which drives the broadband I/O port 12 with a carrier signal. Although the enable-disable function, line 35, is shown applied to level detector 21, the function can be applied to any of the functional elements 22, 23, 24, 32, 31 or 30 with proper circuit modification. When the baseband port 11 is high, the transceiver 10 is always in the receiving mode and is capable, therefore, of sensing another carrier signal on the broadband bus during that time. This logic technique provides the required transparency characteristic as defined within the aforementioned Howell et al application and the ability to sense a contending signal.
The broadband I/O port 12 consists of a pair of terminals, only one of which is shown, capacitively coupled to a high-frequency isolation transformer 13 having an inductive impedance of about 2000 ohms, open circuit. Clamping diodes within voltage surge suppressor 14 on the secondary of transformer 13 limit transient voltages to �/5 volts. In the receive mode, the output impedance of power amplifier 25 is about 10,000 ohms. A wide-band filter 15 presents a 2000 ohm load to the isolation transformer 13 and couples carrier signals to the input amplifier 17 within dynamic limiter 16.
The input amplifier 17 comprises a variable transconductance amplifier which converts the carrier signal voltage to a signal current driving a parallel resonant L/C narrow-band filter 20 through a resistor RA. The sum of filter voltage plus voltage across RA is sensed by a dual-polarity peak voltage comparator 19 which produces a feedback signal to control the transconductance of the amplifier 17, thereby limiting the L/C filter voltage to a fixed amplitude for all input signal voltages above the minimum.
A level detector 21, controlled by the T/R logic as earlier described, passes positive peaks of the filter voltage above 50% of the limited value. These peaks are converted to a square wave at 1/2 carrier frequency by a frequency divider flip-flop 22. The square wave is coupled through a highpass filter 23 to a time domain bandpass filter 24 which passes the square wave to its output if frequency is within the pass band and has no output otherwise. The output square wave of this filter is, in essence, rectified and filtered within a detector and fast integrator 32 which recovers the "modulation envelope" (rectangular wave) of the carrier.
In order to minimize the effects of high-amplitude impulse noise, the rectangular wave drives a dual-slope linear integrator 31 to provide a state recognition time (SRT) of about 330 microseconds. The integrated wave is applied to a comparator 30 which reproduces the rectangular wave, delayed by the SRT, without narrow "glitches". Hysteresis 29 is connected to the comparator reference input via line 39 as a second means of eliminating narrow pulses.
Finally, the delayed rectangular wave of baseband data is applied to the inverting open-collector driver 28 of the baseband I/O port 11 and to the T/R NOR gate 27.
If the baseband port 11 and the input of driver 28 are both low, indicating that an external device has pulled the baseband port low, the NOR gate 27 disables the gated level detector 21 which establishes a "nocarrier" condition in the filter 23, detector and integrator 32, and comparator 30, hence maintaining the baseband driver input terminal low. The NOR gate 27 also enables the two-stage power amplifier 25 which applies the sinusoidal L/C filter voltage to the isolation transformer 13 with a voltage gain of about 50. The L/C filter 20 is driven to a fixed amplitude by feedback through the dynamic limiter 16, thus establishing the amplitude, frequency and waveshape of the transmitted carrier signal. A current limiting resistor RB protects the power amplifier from shortcircuit and high voltage transients. Output impedance of the power amplifier in the transmit mode is less than 10 ohms, including RB. When the power amplifier is disabled, its output impedance increases to 10,000 ohms. This provides minimal attenuation of carrier signal and thereby allows a large number of such transceivers to be connected to a common broadband bus.
The transceiver broadband I/O port terminals T1, T2 of FIG. 2 are connected across a pair of line conductors, or the line and neutral or ground and neutral conductors of a power line which carries modulated carrier communication signals. The baseband I/O port terminals T3, T4 are connected to an I/O port on a microprocessor thereby allowing transparent communication between the microprocessor and any other microprocessor connected to a like transceiver operating on the same power line. The baseband I/O port terminals T3, T4 can also be connected to a baseband data bus containing a plurality of microprocessors whereby any one of the microprocessors can gain control of the bus and transmit to all the other microprocessors on that baseband data bus and through the transceiver onto the power line, serving as a broadband data bus, to all of a plurality of remote microprocessors similarly connected to the baseband I/O port terminals of like transceivers.
FIG. 2 shows the external components and power supply circuitry used within the transceiver circuit 10 of FIG. 1 relative to the integrated circuit implementation 40 shown in FIG. 8 of all the components contained within a single chip and which will be described below in greater detail. The broadband I/O port 12 consists of terminals T1, T2 which couple signals with either the line to neutral, neutral to ground, or line to line connections of a power line communication system (not shown) through a small high voltage capacitor C1 to transformer 13 which is a high frequency isolation transformer which presents a magnetizing impedance of 2000 ohms at carrier frequency to I/O port 12. While a single capacitor C1 is shown, certain applications may require the use of two capacitors in series. A DC blocking capacitor C2 couples the transformer through current limiting resistors R1, R2 to output pin B of the IC. Diodes D1, D2 protect the circuit from high voltage transients by limiting the transformer secondary voltage to +/-1/2 Vcc. The positive supply voltage Vcc comprises 9 volts DC and is applied to the IC pins D, E. The negative is applied to IC pins A, U. The dual terminals minimize cross-talk between the output stage and the other circuits in the IC. The paired IC terminals are connected to a single pin in the IC package. Resistors R5 -R8 are arranged in a resistive divider string to provide a reference voltage VR, applied to pin G, bypassed by capacitor C3, at 1/2 Vcc. The divider also supplies a bias voltage 20 millivolts above VR applied to pin L and a second bias voltage 600 millivolts above VR applied to pin O.
The input to the dynamic limiter 16, shown in FIG. 1, is the carrier signal output of the wideband filter 15, comprised of capacitors C4, C5, C6 and resistors R9, R10 and R11, referenced to VR through resistor R10 as shown in FIG. 3. Although wideband filter 15 is shown as an R/C filter, an L/C filter is advantageous in certain applications. Signal amplitude ranges from 2 millivolts to 2 volts. Since noise pulses may exceed +/-Vcc, the voltage of amplifier input IC pin H is limited by transistors Q1 and Q101 in order to avoid overdriving the variable transconductance amplifier 17.
The dynamic limiter 16 comprising variable transconductance differential amplifier 17 provides a high output impedance current drive to parallel resonant L/C filter circuit 20. The transconductance amplifier 17 comprises transistors Q2 -Q7 and Q102 and Q103 within the dynamic limiter circuit 16 shown in FIG. 3. Transistors Q4 and Q5 are connected as a differential amplifier with the input signal and DC reference voltage VR applied to IC pin H, the base of Q4, and with offset-correcting DC feedback from the output IC pin J applied through lowpass filter R12, C7 to IC pin I and the base of Q5. Emitter current for this amplifier is supplied by resistors R15 and R16 from Vcc to IC pin F and current mirror Q2 and Q3. The differential current output IC pin J is obtained from Q102 and Q103 through current mirror Q6 and Q7. Amplifier output current drives the tuned circuit L1, C8, through a resistor R.sub. 13 in order to develop a voltage signal proportional to current, which is added to the voltage developed across the tuned circuit. This composite signal is applied to the dual-polarity peak detector 19 of FIG. 1 at IC pin J pursuant to developing a feedback signal to control the current gain of the amplifier 17.
Various operating currents within the IC are established by current IB through resistor R14 to pin S and transistor Q63 shown in FIG. 8, wherein emitter follower transistor Q64 supplies the base voltage VB required to establish this current in Q63 and also supplies VB to the bases of all the other transistors within the IC to establish the same current magnitude IB. Capacitor C16 in FIG. 2 provides a bypass of high frequencies at IC pin S and suppresses parasite oscillations.
Transistors Q9 and Q12 with internal resistors R1 and R4 form a differential comparator with emitter degeneration. Emitter current for this comparator is derived from bias voltage VB applied to the base of Q11 and reduced to 0.7 IB by emitter resistor R3. Collector currents of Q9 and Q12 are applied to a pair of Wilson current mirrors, Q104, Q105, Q106 and Q107, having a common output equal to two times the higher of the two collector currents from the comparator. When the collector currents are equal (0.35 IB), the mirror output current is 0.7 IB. This output current is applied to the collector of transistor Q1O which is driven by bias voltage VB to sink IB. Hence, at balance, Q10 is saturated, base current is limited by R2, and no base drive is applied to Q8. When the comparator is unbalanced by approximately 50 millivolts by a signal of either polarity at the base of Q9, one of the two collector currents exceeds 0.5 IB resulting in mirror output current in excess of IB which pulls Q10 out of saturation and drives the base of feedback transistor Q8. This action causes Q8 to bypass some of the amplifier emitter current supplied at IC pin F to current mirror Q2 and Q3. Resistors R14, R15 and R16 and capacitors C9 and C10 control the frequency response of this gain control feedback path in order to obtain the desired transient response to step changes in carrier signal strength and noise impulses.
The limiter output signal developed across the L/C resonant circuit, consisting of variable inductance L1 and capacitor C8, is applied to IC pin K of the gated level detector 21 as shown in FIG. 4. Transistors Q13 and Q15 form a differential comparator of this signal with respect to a DC level on IC pin L 20 millivolts above the reference voltage VR. When positive signal voltage peaks exceed this threshold level, the output is driven by current mirror Q108 producing a current in excess of IB, the current sinking capability of Q17. Emitter current of 2 IB for the comparator is produced by bias voltage VB applied to the bases of Q14 and Q16, as well as sink Q17, through resistor R5. In the transmit mode, the transmit/rece1ve control logic drives the base of Q18 positive, causing Q18 collector current to pull down the base voltages on Q14, Q16, and Q17, thereby disabling the level detector with no output voltage. Transistor Q18 thus senses the function of inverter 26 of FIG. 1.
Additional frequency selectivity is provided by the time domain bandpass filter 24, shown in FIG. 5, which is an "ideal" filter with flat pass-band and infinite attenuation. This filter measures the period of alternate cycles of signal frequency and produces a fixed output signal only when the period fits within a prescribed time window. Since each period measurement is independent of prior events, the response is fast and not related to width of the pass-band.
Signal frequency is halved to produce a fixed amplitude square wave with a half-period equal to signal period as follows. The output of the gated level detector 21 of FIG. 4 drives, through emitter follower Q21, a conventional master-slave flip-flop frequency divider comprised of transistors Q19, Q20, Q22, Q23 and resistors R6-12. The square wave output of this frequency divider is obtained at the collector of Q23.
Since this output can be left in either the high or the low state when the input signal ceases at the end of a carrier burst, and since the succeeding filter circuit requires a low input for zero signal, the frequency divider output must be coupled to the time domain filter 24 through a high-pass filter 23 as shown in FIG. 1. Transistors Q24 and Q25, with resistors R13 and R14 and capacitor C11 connected to IC pin M provide this function within the time doma1n bandpass filter circuit 24 of FIG. 5. When flip-flop output transistor Q23 is turned on, Q24 discharges capacitor C11 and Q25 is off. When Q23 is turned off, the output at its collector is high and is applied to the time domain filter through resistor R14, and charges capacitor C11 through resistor R13. If R23 stays off longer than about 12 microseconds, Q25 is turned on and the time domain filter input is pulled low.
The time window between a time t1 and a time t2 for filter 24 is produced by adjusting R17 to charge C12 to reach 4.5 volts (VR) at IC pin N in time t1 and to reach 5.1 volts (VR +0.6 V) in time t2 after the input (collector of Q25) goes low. The lower cutoff frequency is defined by t2 and the upper cutoff frequency by t1. The timing capacitor C12 is discharged by Q28 when input is high, or is discharged after t2 by Q29 and held discharged until Q28 turns on. At time t1, transistors Q35, Q37, Q112, Q113 and Q38, arranged as a comparator, enable the setting of the output flip-flop Q39 and Q40, if the input goes high between t1 and t2 by comparing the voltage on C12 with the reference voltage VR. At time t2, C12 voltage reaches the higher potential of IC pin O, transistors Q32, Q34, Q110, and Q111, also arranged as a comparator, set flip-flop Q30 and Q31, thereby turning on Q29, discharging capacitor C12, and removing the output enable produced by the comparator consisting of transistors Q35 and Q37. When input goes high, C12 is discharged, flip-flop Q30 /Q31 is reset by Q26, and output flip-flop Q39 /Q40 is set by Q27 and Q41 if enabled by Q38, that is, if between t1 and T2. When input goes low, C12 is allowed to charge, and the output flip-flop is reset. Emitter currents for all the comparators and supply currents for the two flip-flops are provided by Q33 and Q36 driven at bias voltage VB to produce current IB. The output flip-flop Q39 /Q40 drives output transistor Q42 to provide inversion and current asymmetry for the fast-integrating level detection function.
The circuits for functions 27-32 of the transceiver 10 depicted in FIG. 1 are shown in FIG. 6. Adding a bypass capacitor C13 to IC pin P, as shown in FIG. 6, converts transistor Q42 in the time domain bandpass filter 24 of FIG. 5 and transistor Q79 of FIG. 6 to a detector by integrating the asymmetric output. This integration must be fairly fast in order to minimize stretching of the carrier burst time interval. Subsequent symmetrical integration is provided by capacitor C14 connected to IC pin Q which is supplied with a constant sourcing current of IB by current mirror Q122 and Q123 from Q78, as established by VB. The detector transistor Q79 controls a sinking current of 2 IB supplied by Q76 and Q77 in parallel. Thus, absence of signal charges capacitor C14 at a rate set by IB, and presence of signal discharges C14 at the same rate. The voltage on C14 can swing from essentially zero (saturation of Q.sub. 76 and Q77) to VCC minus VBE of Q123 and VSAT of Q122. Since this swing is not symmetrical about VR, the voltage on C14 is compared, by Q73 and Q75, with a reference that swings about 1/2 (VCC -VBE) established by Q70, R39, and R40. Hysteresis of +/-2 volts about this reference is provided by R41 with current from Q120 or from Q121 through current mirror Q72 and Q71 which comprise the hysteresis circuit 29 of FIG. 1.
Differential output current of the comparator 30 of FIG. 1 is reproduced by Q119 and Q69 and applied to the baseband I/O driver Q65 and to T/R logic transistor Q68 through resistors R36 and R37 respectively, as shown in FIG. 6. When carrier signal is absent, capacitor C14 charges, raising the voltage at IC pin Q above reference, providing current in Q75, Q121, Q72, Q71 and Q69, thus turning off Q68 and Q65. An external resistor R20 connected to IC pin R can then pull the I/O port 11 to a positive voltage. This voltage at pin R applied to emitter follower Q66 turns on T/R logic transistor Q67. In the presence of carrier signal, C14 discharges, reducing the voltage at IC pin Q below the changed reference voltage, causing current to switch to Q73, Q120 and Q119 which turns on Q65 and Q68. Driver transistor Q65 within the I/O driver 28 of FIG. 1 pulls I/O port 11 and IC pin R low which turns off Q66 and Q67 which comprise the T/R control logic NOR GATE 27.
In the receiving mode, the T/R control line 36 is being pulled down either by Q67 when the baseband I/O port 11 is high (no carrier) or by Q68 when the baseband I/O port is pulled low (by carrier). If the baseband I/O port 11 is pulled low externally, and not internally, both Q67 and Q68 are off and the T/R control line 36 is released.
When the gated power amplifier 25 of FIG. 1 is turned on, a power oscillator is formed in combination with feedback through the dynamic limiter 16 which establishes oscillator amplitude, and the L/C narrow band filter 20 which determines the oscillation frequency and sinusoidal waveform.
Operating current for the gated power amplifier 25, shown in detail in FIG. 7, is provided from VCC by resistor R18 to IC pin T whenever the T/R control line 41 is released. Capacitor C15 provides a few microseconds delay to allow for some capacitive loading on the baseband I/O port which causes a time delay between turn-off of T/R logic transistor Q68 and turn-on of Q67 in the transition from a received low state at IC pin R as best seen in FIG. 6.
When the baseband I/O port 11 is pulled low externally, the T/R control line 41 is released, the potential at IC pin T rises until Q58 emitter current is sufficient to cause Q59 to sink the current supplied by R18. The potential at the emitter of Q58 is then 2.0 VBE of Q59, as established by R29 and R30. This voltage creates a current through R28 to drive Q18 within the gated level detector 25 of FIG. 4 to inhibit the gated level detector, thereby blocking the receiving path.
The base-emitter voltage of Q59 drives four other current sources--Q52, Q55, Q57 and Q61. Q61 supplies operating current to the first-stage differential amplifier Q60, Q62 and Q118 which has a voltage gain of 5, established by feedback resistors R31 and R32, for signal frequency appearing on the parallel resonant circuit L1, C8 at IC pin K.
The second stage amplifier, Q56, Q53, Q117 and Q52 operates at twice the emitter current of the first stage, supplied by Q55 and Q57 in parallel. The current differential of Q117 and Q52 drives the darlington "totem pole" output stage consisting of Q49 and Q50 driving the large 200 mA power transistors Q43 and Q44. Capacitor C17 connected between pins B and V stabilizes the amplifier. Feedback resistors R3 and R4 set the noload voltage gain of this stage at 10, and short-circuit gain at 20. Resistors R1 and R2 provide current limiting during high amplitude transient voltages and the mid-point connection for feedback reduces the amplifier output impedance as partial compensation for these resistors.
In the receiving mode, with the T/R control logic pulling IC pin T low, the output impedance of the gated power amplifier 25 is established by R3 and R4 at 11 K ohms. High voltage transients coming in to the isolation transformer 13 are clamped, at lower current levels, by zener diodes Q47 and Q48 driving Q45 and Q46 and the power output transistors Q43, Q44. Diodes D1 and D2 provide transient clamping at higher current levels, as determined by R1 and R2 and the magnitudes of VCC, VEB and VBE. Diode Q54 clamps the base of Q50 low in the receiving mode in order to prevent high frequency current in compensating capacitor C17 from turning on the lower power output stage.
The transceiver circuit elements contained within the integrated circuit 40 are shown in FIG. 8 with IC pins A-V arranged for connection with the other components within the carrier current digital data transceiver circuit 10 depicted schematically in FIG. 2. All of the circuit elements shown in FIG. 8 and their operation have been described in detail earlier with reference to FIGS. 3-7, with like reference numerals.
Although the carrier current digital data transceiver of the invention is described for connecting between a power line communication system and a microprocessor data bus, this is by way of example only since the transceiver can communicate over any medium providing suitable carrier propagation, and with any source of baseband data, such as micro and mini computers. The transceiver integrated circuit is embodied within a 20 pin IC configuration. It is to be clearly understood that other IC configurations having a lesser number of terminal pins can also be employed depending upon user requirements and economics.
One such transceiver integrated circuit having a 14 pin IC configuration is shown at 41 in FIGS. 9 and 10. This is accomplished in part by placing resistors R11 -R14 external to the 20 pin integrated circuit 40 of FIG. 2 within the 14 pin integrated circuit. In addition, DC feedback in the dynamic limiter 16 shown in FIGS. 1 and 3 has been eliminated and current limiting resistors are added to the zener diodes Q47 and Q48 as best seen in FIG. 10. The high pass filter 23 between the frequency divider 22 and the time domain bandpass fiter 24 shown in FIG. 1 has been revised, adding transistor Q124 and deleting transistor Q24 seen by comparing the circuits shown in FIGS. 8 and 10. This simplification in circuitry is accomplished by using the characteristics of the fast integrator function of capacitor C13 within the detector and integrator circuits depicted in FIGS. 1 and 6 to reset the time domain filter output flip flop Q39 and Q40 shown in FIG. 5 when, in the absence of signal, transistor Q42 remains conducting longer than about 12 microseconds. Capacitor C13 is discharged to a voltage low enough to turn on transistors Q124 and Q25. FIG. 9 also shows the use of an LC tuned circuit L2 and C6 for the wide band filter 15 of FIG. 1 as described earlier and shown as an RC filter C4 -C6 and R9 -R11 in FIG. 2.
Although the inventions have been described with reference to a specific embodiment thereof, numerous modifications thereof are possible without departing from the inventions and it is desirable to cover all modifications falling within the spirit and scope of these inventions.
