Abstract
A measuring instrument comprising body member having a first surface and a second surface movable relatively to said first surface, an electro-optical display mounted on said body member for displaying a distance between said surfaces measured in numeric form, a transducer responsive to the relative movement between said surfaces for producing pulses representative of the distance travelled in said relative movement, and a large-scale integrated circuit mounted on said body member, said integrated circuit including at least a portion of said transducer, an up-down counter coupled to said transducer for receiving the output pulses thereof and a decoder driver coupling the output of said up-down counter to said electro-optical display for digitally signalling said distance measured.
