ABSTRACT:
An input detection circuit to provide a D.C. output signal of a selected value upon receipt of an input A.C. signal of a given value on an input line. The detector circuit includes a NORTON type current responsive operational amplifier having an inverted input terminal, a non-inverted input terminal and an output terminal. A circuit is provided at the inverted terminal for biasing the amplifier to provide an output voltage on the output terminal substantially less than the selected output signal. A full wave rectifier connected to the input line and having a first output conductive during the negative portion of an A.C. signal applied to the input line and a second output conductive during the positive portion of an A.C. signal applied to the input line. There is provided a first resistor for connecting the first output of the rectifier to the inverted terminal and a second resistor for connecting the second output to the non-inverted terminal. In addition, there is a system for detecting the existence of concurrent A.c. inputs from at least one of each of two groups of A.C. inputs using the detector device as described above.
