  • Method and structure for generating representations of repetitive electrical waveforms
    Patent number: 4217524
    Abstract: The invention is a method and structure for generating representations of repetitive electrical waveforms by sampling the magnitude of a plurality of points on the waveform. The sampling method is characterized by progressively forming an approximation of the magnitude of each waveform point during a plurality of repetitions of the waveform. In accordance with one feature of an illustrative embodiment of the invention, the magnitude of the waveform at each of the points is formed by successively comparing during a plurality of repetitions of the waveform the waveform magnitude to the magnitude of a reference signal associated with the point and by adjusting the magnitude of the reference signal after each comparison in accordance with the result of comparison. The invention includes circuit structure for performing the foregoing method.
