Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a physical quantity converter which can vary continuously the variable impedance changing according to input physical quantity and has a long damping time constant characteristic by converting said impedance to a pulse signal having the on-off duty ratio associated therewith. CONSTITUTION:The pulse signal applied from a detection circuit II is smoothed in a smoothing circuit FL1 and is converted to a DC voltage by which current output I0 is controlled. The circuit FL1 constitutes the time constant circuit to determine the damping characteristic of the circuit and is provided with a switching means SW1 for changing the time constant driven by the frequency- divided on-off duty pulse from a circuit IV for generating the time constant control signal and a variable resistor VR1 for varying the time constant. The means SW1 is closed by the time when a pulse signal is applied and holds the signal voltage in order time. The circuit FL1 is operated by such operation in the same way as in the case in which the time constant increases.

<Conventional example> A damping function is provided to suppress the vibration of the output signal. There are two types of damping methods: a mechanical damping method performed on the detection unit side and an electrical damping method performed on the conversion circuit side. The latter electrical damping method is widely used because it is cost-effective. However, in the case of differential pressure, pressure transmitters, 5 to 10
A damping time constant as long as seconds is required, and in order to obtain such a long damping time constant, a capacitor with a large capacity such as IJIFv must be used as a time constant means. Such capacitors require a large amount of space and have problems in terms of intrinsic safety.
