Can this be accomplished?

Hi:

Does a device that switches frequency [in number of Hz] with peak-to-
peak amplitude [in number of in electron(s)-per-second-per-square-
meter] – and visa versa -- exist? If not, is it possible to construct
one?

In this device, the input of a signal that has a frequency of X Hz and
a peak-to-peak amplitude of Y electron-per-second-per-square-meter
will result in the output of a signal that has a frequency of Y Hz and
a peak-to-peak amplitude of X electron-per-second-per-square-meter.


The question is based on a completely erroneous assumption. Electrons
per second per square meter is a current density, if an electron's
charge is accounted for. In electronics, it is usually current, not
current density, that matters.

So the amplitude is determined by the amperage?

The OP typically asks abstruse questions that, on analysis, are only
approximately meaningful. I can imagine that he was praised as a child
for asking what the adults around him thought were deep questions, and
that he has essentially retarded himself deliberately in an attempt to
relive the days of easy praise.

I vaguely remember the OP attempting to explain this some time back.
Apparently he has some known medical/mental condition that makes him ask
such questions, and can't or won't comprehend the replies.

This silly question has generated an awful lot of discussion

That's the OP's intention, and it works nearly every time, people keep
biting.

He pops up here and there in various technical groups under various
names and has been for years. He is either mentally ill, or just
trolling, which I suppose also falls under the mentally ill category,
but either way attempting to answer his questions in any meaningful way
is futile.

So the amplitude is determined by the amperage?


No. With real signals, amplitude is often taken to be voltage, although
power is sometimes used (think decibels).

So in the device I'm thinking of [which I posted in the start of the
thread] the amplitude would be determined by volts? Or would it be in
watts-per-square-meter? Or just watts?

1. Answer to 1st paragraph of original post is transducer.
As to 1st transducer you grew up with your eyes glued to it. Jerry
probably didn't see one until his teens, unless hes went to 1939
World's Fair.

2. Answer to this post's question - Which do you wish to measure?

I saw myself on television at the 1939 Worlds Fair. A microphone is a
transducer, so are headphones and loudspeakers. believe it or not, there
were telephones before I was born. :)

At least he's no longer pushing his scheme to encode high quality audio
with one bit per minute.

Sure, but they were coal fired, way back then! ;-)

Ahhh Jerry, you gave it away. I was trying to get him to think - he HAS
on occasion. I was also hoping he'd reveal just why he's interested in
electron spatial density as a function of time. And why output as a
frequency? {I know why a former employer had product lines that accepted
physical process variables and emitted a pulse train as output, but why op?}

YES!!!!!
Now there's an admission, even though I was actually referring to
GreenXenon. I doubt you could challenge him.
