专利汇可以提供Bipolar log converter专利检索，专利查询，专利分析的服务。并且A bipolar log converter capable of receiving bidirectional current I and providing (a) a continuous potential signal having a polarity representative of the flow direction of the current, (b) the potential signal having a magnitude representative of the current, and (c) the potential signal changing polarity upon a change in the flow direction of the current. This converter is especially useful in a novel dynamic analyzer for evaluation of voltage-current related properties in an external system and, in a particular application, to a unique potentiostat employed in performing electrochemical analysis of corrosion phenomena in a test cell. The bipolar log converter employs a unique voltage network or bridge using series connected rectifier pair biased into a conducting state. The bidirectional current I flows in only one rectifier to produce a conversion logarithmically into a potential. This potential in the network produces at its output a potential signal + OR - V I. Temperature compensation for the network is also disclosed.，下面是Bipolar log converter专利的具体信息内容。
