DEFINITION

Classification: 326/35

THRESHOLD (E.G., MAJORITY, MINORITY, OR WEIGHTED INPUTS, ETC.):

(under the class definition) Subject matter including a logic level switching circuit which has a plurality of inputs which actuate the output to switch to one of at least two logic levels whenever one of the following conditions is obtained:

(a) More than half, but less than all of the inputs are "on" (i.e., majority); (b) More than one, but less than half of all the inputs are "on" (i.e., minority); or (c) Various predetermined combinations, together or in predetermined sequence, of the inputs are "on" (i.e., weighted).
