Description

Die bisher verwendeten elektronischen Schalter bestehen entweder aus Hochvakuumröhren oder aus gasgefüllten Entladungsstrecken. Die gasgefüllte Entladungsstrecke hat gegenüber der Hochvakuumröhre den Vorteil eines wesentlich niedrigeren Innenwider-Standes. Trotzdem liegt der innere Widerstand gasgefüllter Entladungsstrecken in der Größenordnung von einigen hundert Ohm. Ein elektronischer Schalter, welcher einen wesentlich kleineren Widerstand besitzt, war bisher nicht bekannt. Elektronenröhren, welche als Schalter verwendet wurden, waren auch deshalb besonders umständlich zu verwenden, da sie mehrere Betriebsspannungen benötigen. Der letztgenannte Nachteil wird durch die Verwendung von Transistoren vermieden. Jedoch wird bei einem üblichen Transistor eine Stromaufteilung bewirkt, so daß die Ströme im Kollektorkreis von denen im Emitterkreis verschieden sind. Auch diese Erscheinung ist bei Schaltern unerwünscht, und somit ist bei verschiedenen Verwendungszwecken die Benutzung von Transistoren sehr umständlich oder unmöglich.The electronic switches used up to now consist either of high vacuum tubes or gas-filled ones Discharge routes. The gas-filled discharge path has opposite the high vacuum tube the advantage of a significantly lower internal resistance. Nevertheless, the internal resistance is more gas-filled Discharge paths on the order of a few hundred ohms. An electronic switch, which has a much lower resistance was not previously known. Electron tubes, which were used as switches were particularly cumbersome to use because they need several operating voltages. The latter disadvantage is caused by the use of transistors avoided. However, a current sharing is effected in a conventional transistor, so that the Currents in the collector circuit are different from those in the emitter circuit. This phenomenon is also at Switches are undesirable and thus transistors are used in various uses very awkward or impossible.

Diese Schwierigkeiten werden dadurch beseitigt, daß bei einem elektronischen Schalter mit Steuerung durch eine ein fotoelektrisches Element beleuchtende Lichtquelle erfmdungsgemäß zur Erzielung eines sehr kleinen Widerstandes ein Fototransistor verwendet wird, der mit seiner Emitter-Kollektor-Strecke in dem zu schaffenden Stromkreis liegt. Dieser Fototransistor wird so geschaltet, daß er praktisch als Zweipolstrecke arbeitet. An der Basiselektrode liegt lediglich eine feste Vorspannung, die jedoch keine Steueraufgabe besitzt, sondern nur zur Kompensation des Dunkelstromes dient. Die Steuerung des Transistors erfolgt durch Beleuchtung.These difficulties are eliminated in that an electronic switch with control by a light source illuminating a photoelectric element according to the invention to achieve a very small resistance a phototransistor is used, which with its emitter-collector path in the circuit to be created lies. This phototransistor is switched so that it is practically a two-pole path is working. There is only a fixed bias voltage at the base electrode, but this has no control function. but only serves to compensate for the dark current. The transistor is controlled through lighting.

Der Betriebsgleichstrom des durchgeschalteten Transistors ist hierbei größer zu wählen als der überlagerte Wechselstrom. Sollen zwei Wechselstromkreise miteinander gekoppelt werden, so kann hierfür in jeden Kreis ein Übertrager geschaltet werden, dessen Primärwicklung in den Wechselstromkreis geschaltet ist und dessen Sekundärwicklung mit einer der Elektroden des Transistors verbunden ist. Es wird somit eine Serienschaltung hergestellt, welche aus der Sekundärwicklung des ersten Kreises, der Emitter-Kollektor-Strecke des Transistors und der Sekundärwicklung des zweiten Kreises besteht. An den freien Enden dieser Sekundärwicklungen liegt dann die Betriebsspannung. The DC operating current of the transistor switched through must be selected to be greater than the superimposed one Alternating current. If two alternating current circuits are to be coupled with one another, this can be done A transformer can be connected to each circuit, the primary winding of which is connected to the AC circuit and its secondary winding is connected to one of the electrodes of the transistor. It will thus a series circuit is established, which consists of the secondary winding of the first circuit, the emitter-collector path of the transistor and the secondary winding of the second circuit. To the free ones The operating voltage is then applied to the ends of these secondary windings.

Zur Erläuterung der Erfindung dient die Zeichnung. Der Fototransistor 1 besitzt eine Basiselektrode 2, an welche über einen Widerstand 3 eine feste Vorspannung gelegt ist. Die Sekundärwicklung des Übertragers 4 liegt an der Emitterelektrode 6 und die Se kundärwicklung des Übertragers 5 an der Kollektor-Elektronischer, The drawing serves to explain the invention. The phototransistor 1 has a base electrode 2 to which a fixed bias voltage is applied via a resistor 3. The secondary winding of the transformer 4 is on the emitter electrode 6 and the secondary winding of the transformer 5 on the collector electronic,
