ABSTRACT:
Voltages at the diagonal points of a bridge circuit are amplified in an AC differential manner and half-wave rectified, which bridge circuit is formed of reference resistors and temperature dependent resistors located in front and rear of an electric heater in a duct through which air to be measured flows. The half-wave rectified voltage is sampled and held in synchronism with a control pulse signal from an oscillation circuit so that the sampling and holding operation is performed substantially at the center of the period during which the half-wave rectified voltage is produced. The held voltage and a constant reference voltage are amplified in a DC differential manner and then applied to a power amplifier circuit which controls a supply voltage to the electric heater. The voltage to be applied to the bridge circuit is an intermittent voltage which is produced by a chopper circuit.
