ABSTRACT:
A circuit is shown for representing the internal temperature of a crystal, through a combination of certain harmonic frequencies excited in that crystal. By forming a signal which is equal to nF.sub.A -F.sub.B, i.e., n times a lower harmonic frequency minus F.sub.B, an nth harmonic frequency, or F.sub.A -1
F.sub.B, e.g., it is possible to have a signal which is near linearly dependent upon temperature which can be used in representing same. This composite signal is also seen to be highly sensitive to temperature changes yielding an improved thermometric system as compared to conventional systems.
