ABSTRACT:
An input circuit which converts currents produced from a plurality of photo-sensitive elements arranged in a distance measuring apparatus. The input circuit has a switching element series connected to at least one of the photo-sensitive elements. When the switching element is operated, the output current of one of the photo-sensitive elements is supplied to a converting circuit which converts current into a voltage. Only one converting circuit is present. The output of the converting circuit is produced in a time series to a computing circuit. The computing circuit processes the signal thus received and produces a signal corresponding to an object distance.
