The present disclosure relates to laminated armor materials for enhanced ballistic protection. In particular, the present disclosure relates to laminated armor materials comprising first and second armor materials and a laminated adhesive layer comprising nanomaterial fillers.

Laminated armor materials for enhanced ballistic protection

A clock-controlled voltage-to-frequency converter comprising a reference voltage source, an integrator for receiving the reference voltage and a variable input voltage and producing an output having a triangular waveform, the integrator including a capacitor which is charged at a rate proportional to the input voltage and discharged at a rate proportional to the difference between the reference voltage and the input voltage, the charging and discharging occurring during a time interval T.sub.o, a clock pulse source for generating a continuous series of clock pulses, a counter responsive to the clock pulses for terminating the discharging of the capacitor and initiating the charging of the capacitor at a fixed time interval following termination of the charging of the capacitor, a logic circuit responsive to the output of the integrator for terminating the charging of the capacitor and initiating the discharging of the capacitor when the integrator output rises above a preselected threshold level, the time required for the capacitor to charge to the threshold level varying in accordance with the magnitude of the input voltage.
