  • Patent number: 5847592
    Abstract: Control circuit for producing output voltages from a plurality of sensor signals, wherein each of the sensor signals are identical and mutually phase shifted. The control circuit comprises a plurality of comparators for producing the output voltages, wherein each comparator is respectively supplied with one of the sensor signals and with an amount of hysteresis which depends on the amplitude of one or more of the respective other sensor signals. The control circuit further comprises electronic circuitry for deriving the respective amount of comparator hysteresis for each of the comparators from the amplitude of one or more of the respective other sensor signals.
