Abstract: The invention concerns a method whereby an optical signal representing the amount of ionizing light of at least a gas in the proximity of an object is displayed and/or recorded. Said method is characterized in that it consists in: gradually increasing (D1) the voltage (U) between the object and the conductor element up to a final value (U2) wherein the maximum brightness (L1) is observed; determining, as first characteristic value of the object, the value of the voltage (U2) as from which the brightness (L2) is not less than about 10% of the maximum brightness (L1) and in determining, as second characteristic value of the object, the voltage value as from which the brightness (L3) of the signal is not less than about 90% of the maximum brightness (L1). The installation comprises a sensor equipped with a flexible membrane defining a volume of confinement for a gas or a gas mixture wherein the ionization occurs.

Abstract: The invention relates to reference handover in clock signal generation systems and similar applications. The idea according to the invention is to introduce a so-called "virtual" delay in the control loop of a PLL (10) for the purpose of forcing the control loop to shift the phase of the PLL output clock signal (VCOout), while still maintaining the mandatory phase lock condition of the PLL relative to a primary reference signal (MREF), towards a predetermined target phase relation with the primary reference signal. By utilizing a virtual delay ("DELTAT"), the problems associated with explicit delay elements such as passive or active delay lines are avoided, and a more robust and accurate clock phasing mechanism is obtained. Preferably, the virtual delay is introduced by superimposing an external phasing control signal in the control loop of the PLL (10) on the output signal/input signal of a control loop element.
