Definitions

  • Figure 3 is a circuit diagram of a pulse limiter and shaper unit
  • Negative-going signals from the new signal indicator 12 are applied to the control grid of valve Vs which is initially in the conducting state the valve V7 being cut oil.
  • the multivibrator may be tripped -to its original stable condition by negative going signals applied to the control grid of valve Vr these signals being those derived'from the explore sync head 20.
