Noise eliminator circuit

A noise eliminator circuit for use in a decoding circuit including a counter with at least first, second and third outputs, said counter operated in response to an external pulse source to generate at said first, second and third outputs respectively a first pulse train having a pulse width of a first characteristic, a second pulse train having a pulse width of a second characteristic and being greater than said first pulse train characteristic, and a third pulse train having a pulse width of a third characteristic and being greater than said second pulse train characteristic, and a gate circuit including first and second inputs connected to said second and third counter outputs, and an output, operated in response to coincident pulses from said second and third pulse trains to generate a gate signal at said output:

• the improvement comprising the inclusion of a delay circuit connected between said third output and said gate circuit and including an input connected to said first counter output, operated in response to said first pulse train to delay said third pulse train by said pulse width of said first pulse train.
