Abstract

A method and a system for reducing a dynamic offset during the processing of asymmetric signal strings includes reducing a dynamic offset which allows a reduction of any disturbing influence on subsequent process steps. In every no-pulse period a capacitor is discharged by an amount depending on the value of the amplitude of the voltage of the high-pass structure on the input side.

Claims (4)

1. A method for reducing a dynamic offset during the processing of asymmetric signal sequences, whereby a signal sequence comprising pulses and interpulse periods is subjected to high-pass filtering by means of a high pass containing a capacitor, wherein during each interpulse period the capacitor is discharged by a controllable element bridging the capacitor by an amount which depends on the value of the amplitude of the input-side voltage of the high pass.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the discharge occurs according to a linear or nonlinear characteristic curve.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the capacitor is partially or completely discharged.

4. The method according to claim 3 , wherein the discharge occurs according to a linear or nonlinear characteristic curve.
