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 ...
Using pulse outputs from a PLC is a cost-effective way to get simple motion. Most, if not all, PLC manufacturers provide a way to control servos and steppers using a pulse train signal. So when a ...
How to build a circuit that converts capacitance into a pulse train. Test results of the circuit design. The circuit in Figure 1 allows you to convert capacitance into a pulse train by using a ...
This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. Pulse-width modulation (PWM) is used in applications ranging from controlling valves or pumps to adjusting the ...
I. Positive (normal) dispersion. This is what happens in most light-matter interaction. The medium has higher index of refraction for higher frequencies; the frequency components of a pulse are ...
