ABSTRACT:
An electronic circuit for determining the position of a light spot produced by a light source (4, 22) on a position-sensitive detector (4,22) having a center terminal (2) and two end terminals (3, 3'). Circuitry is provided for keeping the current (I) applied to the center contact of the position-sensitive detector at a constant level, which circuitry includes means (9) for measuring the current and means (10-18) for compensating for variations in this current by controlling the luminous intensity of the light source (1, 25).
