Claims
- 1. A method of correcting a dead time in an analog/digital converter or a linear amplifier, wherein said dead time is obtained by the steps comprising;
- determining a first time, wherein said first time represents the time elapsed from (a) a predetermined level of an output signal generated by a slow amplifier in response to an input pulse, to (b) a peak level of said output signal;
- measuring a second time, wherein said second time is the time required for treating said input pulse;
- adding said first time to said second time, thereby obtaining said dead time.
- 2. A method of correcting a dead time, wherein said dead time is obtained by the steps comprising:
- inputting a signal from a slow amplifier into a comparator;
- inputting a threshold level signal into said comparator,
- wherein said comparator outputs a signal-treating time signal;
- inputting said signal-treating time signal into a one-shot multivibrator;
- adding said signal-treating time signal to an output of said one-shot multivibrator, thereby obtaining said dead time.
- 3. A method of correcting a dead time, wherein said dead time is obtained by the steps comprising:
- inputting a signal from a slow amplifier into a first comparator through a delay circuit;
- inputting a first threshold value into said first comparator;
- wherein said first comparator outputs a signal-treating time signal;
- inputting directly said signal from said slow amplifier into a second comparator;
- inputting a second threshold value into said second comparator,
- wherein said second comparator outputs an additional time signal prior to said signal-treating time signal by said first comparator;
- adding said signal-treating time signal to said additional time signal, thereby obtaining said dead time.
