Abstract: A circuit and a method to measure continuously the resistance of variable
resistors in series as e.g. potentiometers within a sensor, used for e.g. a joystick,
has been achieved. The voltage across said sensor comprising any number of
variable resistors is stabilized. A constant current source is providing a minimum
current through said sensor. A variable current source is used to zoom variations
of current through the sensor caused by variations of resistance of the sensor.
Said variable current is mirrored and by measuring the voltage across a shunt
resistor the total resistance of the sensor is identified. Using ports between each
of the resistors, voltages can be measured representing the resistance of each of
the variable resistors using known equations of voltage dividers. Any number of
variable resistors can be used in the circuit invented.

Abstract: Polyimides consisting of PMDA and an aromatic diamine
are normally solvent-insoluble. According to the present
invention, they are solubilized in solvents to prepare
four-component or higher block copolymers containing BTDA.
PMDA is reacted with a certain type of aromatic diamine in
a molar ratio of 1:2-1.5 to produce a solvent-soluble
oligomer. This is combined with an acid dianhydride and an
aromatic diamine to produce a four-component or higher
solvent-soluble block copolymer. 
     The molar ratio of the aromatic diamine added with
PMDA is 1:2-1.5. A number of solvent-soluble block
copolymers containing PMDA can be prepared. 
     Four-component or higher polyimide block copolymers
containing PMDA, BTDA, and DAT are prepared by sequential
reactions in the presence of a binary catalyst. This made
it possible to prepare various polyimides from many
inexpensively available materials. Polyimides containing
PMDA-BTDA-DAT can be prepared at high performance, in mass
and at low cost by using economical direct imidation, and
therefore can be widely used in future.
