Abstract
This invention generally relates to reducing electronic noise by mechanical means, in order to improve signal quality. More specifically, this invention relates to reducing small amplitude vibrations of analog electronic circuit components, which electronically respond to mechanical movements, such as vibrations. For example, in accordance with an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a signal-to-noise ratio is improved by gravity-restoring mechanical isolation and transmission-path evasion of signal generating, processing, transmitting, broadcasting, receiving or detecting electronics.
