Abstract :
A displacement monitor for use with mechanical stimulators with range of 2.5 mm, ±5-percent linearity, l-¿m resolution, and less than 25-¿s rise time can be built inexpensively using a solid-state interrupter module. Operational amplifier circuits are given for loudspeaker driver and monitor electronics.
