Abstract

PURPOSE:To measure a hysteresis width with high accuracy by feeding the output signal of a flip-flop circuit which is coupled with an analog comparator applied with a mixed signal of two high and low frequencies back to the control signal input part of the flip-flop circuit. CONSTITUTION:A low frequency input source 5 and a high frequency input source 7 are connected through an analog adding circuit 7 to the input side (a) of a circuit 4 to be tested where the analog comparator 1, R/S flip-flop circuit 3, etc., are integrated. The output terminal (c) of the circuit 4 is fed back to the control signal input part (b) of the circuit 3 through a delay circuit 8, etc. Then a signal is inputted from the input source 5 to increase the voltage level of the input source 6 gradually from zero, and the voltage level of the signal of the input source 6 when the output pulse period varies to twice, there times... as high as the frequency of the signal of the input source 5 is observed on an oscilloscope 12 to know the input hysteresis width. Further, when the ratio of two AC signal frequencies is increased, the hysteresis width can be measured with high accuracy.

Embodiment FIG. 1 shows a measuring circuit used in an embodiment of the present invention, in which the voltage level of the high frequency input signal source 6 is first brought to zero. Analog comparator 1. Mono multi circuit 2 and R/S
When the output signal of the output terminal C of the circuit under test 4 in which the flip-flop circuit 3 is integrated is observed and measured by the oscilloscope 111 and the frequency counter 10, as shown in FIG. synchronously, the period T of the digital output coincides with the low frequency signal frequency IL. The pulse width tl of the output pulse signal of the circuit under test 4 shown in FIG. 1 is the delay setting time of the delay circuit 8. Next, the voltage level of the high frequency input signal source 6 is gradually increased from zero (and the output pulse period T of the output terminal C of the circuit under test 4 is increased from the frequency of the low frequency input signal source 50 to 2f).
t-3ft...changes to η・fL. By observing and measuring the voltage level of the high frequency input signal source 6 with the oscilloscope 12 when the output pulse period T changes from ft to 2fL, it is possible to know the input hysteresis width of the analog comparator 1 of the circuit under test 4. If the addition gain of the analog adder 7 is set to OdB, the voltage level of the high frequency input signal source 6 (peak value mVp-p
) is naturally converted into the input hysteresis width. The output waveform diagram of the circuit under test 4 at this time is shown in FIG. The time t2 between the first pulse and the second pulse in FIG. 3 is the pulse width time of the monomulti circuit 9. The pulse width of this monomulti circuit 9 is suitably 3 to 5 cycles of the high frequency fH cycle.
