Abstract

1,082,946. Saw-tooth circuits. MARCONI INSTRUMENTS Ltd. Sept. 23, 1964 [Oct. 24, 1963], No. 41966/63. Heading H3P. A ramp waveform of long period is generated by superimposing a short period ramp wave form on an appropriate staircase waveform. As shown, pulses from a generator 1 are fed to a chain of binary frequency dividers 5 the outputs of which are superimposed at 6 to provide a staircase waveform of the required period, each step occurring at the time of each pulse from generator 1. A short period saw-tooth waveform is generated by charging capacitor 3 via a constant current device 2 and discharging it at 4 under control of each pulse from generator 1. The saw-tooth waveform is passed by the buffer amplifier 7 to an adding circuit 8 where it is superimposed on the staircase waveform to provide a linear ramp of long period at 9. The staircase waveform may have 512 steps each lasting five seconds so that the output ramp waveform will have a period of 2560 seconds and a flyback time of 10<SP>-4</SP> seconds. The period of the output waveform may be adjustable by variation of the frequency of generator 1 and simultaneous variation of the constant current 2 so that the short period ramp accurately fills in the staircase waveform.
