Abstract
A photoelectric type displacement detecting apparatus, such as a digital display dial gauge micrometer, with an improved frequency response, comprising optical lattice means, light emitting means for irradiating the optical lattice means with a detecting light, light receiving means for receiving a transmission or reflective light from the optical lattice means, and a detection circuit for generating an output signal indicative of relative movement in the lattice. The frequency characteristic of a phototransistor adapted in the light receiving means depends on the input impedance of a base-grounded transistor to maintain the current supplied to the light emitting means constant and to improve the frequency response in the detection apparatus.
