Abstract

A drift compensating circuit cooperates with an air-pressure-to voltage transducer. The first input of a comparison circuit is connected to the transducer, while a reference voltage is connected to the second input. The reference voltage is provided by an up/down counter and a digital to analog converter. The comparison circuit has an output connected to the up/down counter to cause the counter to count up or down. The counter is enabled at predetermined intervals.
