ABSTRACT:
A shifting compensation circuit which employs a ranging circuit having a variable direct voltage source, to compensate for abnormally large vehicle magnetic fields. A ranging circuit is coupled between a microcomputer and a flux-gate. The microcomputer monitors the output of an integrator through a buffer amplifier to minimize variations in the integrator output caused by temperature variations, and directs the variable direct voltage source to add a direct voltage reference, in opposition to the vehicle's magnetic field signal and within the output voltage range of the integrator, to the output signal of the flux-gate, such that the combination of the two signals is within the output voltage range of the integrator for all vehicle headings.
