(under subclass 123) Subject matter having an inverted amplifier.
(1) Note. An inverted amplifier is defined as one having an amplification factor which is less than unity. Usually this is achieved by connecting the input circuit to the plate of a vacuum tube and taking the output from the grid of a vacuum tube. The inverted amplifier acts as an attenuating circuit to couple the meter to the source of voltage or current being measured.
