A previous Design Idea describes an astable multivibrator that gets hysteresis from the positive feedback stage using a technique you can characterize as positive-capacitive feedback (Reference 1). It ...

The PVM-4210 is a compact, OEM-style pulse generator module providing two simultaneous differential voltage pulses of up to ±950V (1,900 V differential), with pulse rise and fall times <15 ns, and ...

I have wanted to make a pulse generator for years. I know you can buy perfectly good ones, but not if you want non-overlapping outputs to drive the mosfets in synchronous-rectified dc-dc converters.

For a long time, I have thought that pulse generator outputs should not have adjustable amplitude and offset. Instead, they should have an adjustable top value and a separately adjustable bottom value ...

When working with hardware, whether a repair or a fresh build, it’s often necessary to test something. Depending on what you’re working with, this can be easy or a total pain if you can’t get the ...

Physicists have created a compact laser that emits extremely bright, short pulses of light in a useful but difficult-to-achieve wavelength range, packing the performance of larger photonic devices ...

Quantum Composers 9520 series pulse generators provide a unique and flexible solution to synchronize multiple pulses and triggers for a wide variety of applications. The 9520 is also the only ...

Highland Technology's T240 is intended for driving electrical/optical modulators. It features programmable delay/pulse width in two ranges, from 100 picoseconds FWHM up to 25ns, and a programmable ...

At Astronics, the company has released a pair of new signal generators recently. Launched in 2017, the SE5082 Abitrary Microwave Generator is a multi-Nyquist zone waveform generator, with output ...
