Default O2 meter dampening circuit???

Somewhere I remembered seeing a circuit to 'dampen' the ocilations or sweep of the O2 meters and help to steady the display. Anyone know what I'm talking about and can point me in the right direction ?
Thanks

Check the diyefi site. They have a few designs for o2 sensors and may cover that there.

Another thought-- a standard 02 sensor is supposed to oscillate as it can only tell the computer lean or rich. The computer then reacts by changing the mixture until the o2 sensor says it went the other way. It just dithers about the ideal point constantly. A wide band 02 sensor may be what you are looking for. It is able to read the actual condition. Someone correct me if I'm wrong on this, I haven't played with one yet but am planning to for this reason.

You are talking about the meters that are made to readout a small percentage of the O2 sensors curve. Say from .47V to .90V. This is better for full throttle fine tuning but does not read out anything at idle/cruising depending on how it is setup.
I can range the AF9 meters to read out any range you like if you want to go that route.
