Abstract: An electrical circuit incorporated in a receiver circuit of an ultrasonic pulse-echo thickness and/or velocity measuring apparatus causes the entrant surface and rear wall responsive video signals to be of equal magnitude and in phase with each other. The provision of echo responsive video signals having equal amplitude and phase results in a measuring apparatus exhibiting improved accuracy while requiring fewer and less expensive circuit components.
