DEFINITION

Classification: 323/288

With ramp generator or controlled capacitor charging:

(under subclass 282) Subject matter including circuitry which produces a gradually changing signal which is ultimately proportional to the output of the device.

(1) Note. The changing signal may take the form of a sawtooth with a repeating ramp and return to an initial value. Controlled capacitor charging involves charging a capacitor to some predetermined value at which value a controllable device such as a transistor, unijunction transistor, or programmable unijunction transistor goes into another state of conduction or exerts a controlling influence on another device.
