Abstract
A combination integrate and dump filter comprises an amplifier for performing both the integrate and level detecting functions. Selective circuit configuration (SCC) apparatus is provided and responsive to a first state of a baud signal for providing reactive feedback to the amplifier such that voltage is stored by the SCC apparatus, which stored voltage represents the time integral of the input signal. The SCC apparatus is further responsive to a second state of the baud signal for terminating the reactive feedback and for coupling the stored voltage to the amplifier input such that the stored voltage is amplified and, therefore, the amplifier output represents the cumulative polarity of the input signal over the integration interval.
