Abstract
An electromagnetic flowmeter for converting flow rate of a fluid to be measured into an electrical signal and for outputting a flow rate signal corresponding to the flow rate using detecting electrodes, comprising exciting means for applying a magnetic field to the fluid with an excitation period thereof being shorter than the non-exciting period; AC coupling means for obtaining an AC signal through AC coupling of signals outputted from the electrodes sample and hold means for sampling and holding the AC signals with a sampling signal having a sampling width including portions before and after the excitation period, and for outputting the resulting sample and hold signal as a hold signal; switching means for changing a reference potential before and after the sample and hold; and signal processing means for processing the hold signal to produce the flow rate signal.
