    Date of Patent: October 17, 2000
    Assignee: Abbott Laboratories
    Inventors: Mark W. Holladay, Stephen P. Arneric, Hao Bai, Michael J. Dart, Nan-Horng Lin, John K. Lynch, Yat Sun Or, Keith B. Ryther, James P. Sullivan, James T. Wasicak, Paul P. Ehrlich
  • Patent number: 5682562
    Abstract: A flash quench controller for a camera having a flash unit includes a light detector for producing a signal, an integrator for integrating the signal from the detector and producing an integrated signal, a comparator for comparing the integrated signal to a reference value, and means for quenching the flash unit when the integrated signal reaches the reference value. By using a pulse signal having a variable pulse width to programmably set the reference value, many different quench time values can be easily established. The flash unit may also be quenched by setting a maximum flash time value. The flash is automatically quenched if this flash time value is reached before the integrated signal level reaches the programmed reference value.
