Circuit converts a dc analog input signal to pulse widths that are proportional to the input signal voltage. The circuit would be particularly useful as an analog-to-digital converter where low power, ruggedness, reliability, and good linearity are prime requirements.
Low-inductance, high-capacitance Marx pulse generator provides for minimization of internal inductance and suppression of external electromagnetic radiation. The spark gaps of the generator are enclosed in a pressurized nitrogen atmosphere which allows the charging voltage to be varied by changing the nitrogen pressure.
Voltage regulator, which operates within preset current limits, acts as a circuit breaker to prevent overload failure, and automatically resets when the overload is removed. The power dissipated in the series transistor of the circuit is constant from normal load to short circuit condition.
Base-triggered avalanche transistor circuit used in a Marx bank pulser configuration provides voltage multiplication with nanosecond rise-time. The avalanche-mode transistors replace conventional spark gaps in the Marx bank. The delay time from an input signal to the output signal to the output is typically 6 nanoseconds.
Lithium-tellurium secondary cell with a fused lithium halide electrolyte, tested in the temperature range 467 degrees to 500 degrees C, showed improvement over the sodium bismuth cell. The voltage of this bimetallic cell was increased by using the more electropositive anode material, lithium, and the more electronegative cathode material, tellurium.
