 The 

duration

 

of

 

the

 

time

 

V5

 

is

 

cut

 

off

 

is

 deter­

mined 

by

 

the 

time

 

constant

 of

 

C7,

 

R20C,

 R20C1

 thru

 

R20C9 (depending

 upon

 

the position

 

of

 

S10A),

 and

 

the 

voltage

 

applied

 across 

the

 

circuit

 

and

 

is

 

substantially 

independent

 

of

 

the

 characteristics

 

of

 

the 

trigger

 

im

­

pulse. 

To

 

cover

 a

 

range

 

of

 

sweep

 time 

from 

.1 

sec. 

to

 

1 microsecond, 

C7

 

has

 five values

 as

 

selected 

by

 

the 

SWEEP 

RANGE 

switch.

 

The

 

calibrated

 

variable

 

resistor 

R20C 

is

 returned 

to 

+225

 

volts. 

This

 makes

 

possible

 

the

 

use

 

of

 a 

larger

 

value

 

of

 

C7

 

than

 would

 otherwise be 

possible, thus

 

reducing

 

the

 

voltage

 

divider

 

action

 

of

 

the 

stray

 capacitances

 

to 

ground in

 

the

 

grid 

circuit

 

of 

V5. 

Variation

 of 

R20C, 

R20C1-9,

 in

 conjunction

 with

 

the

 five

 

values of

 

C7

 

gives

 

a

 continuously

 

variable

 adjustment

 

of

length.

Unblanking

 

Circuit

During

 

the

 waiting

 

period

 

the

 

bias

 

on

 

the

 cathode

 

ray

 

tube

 is 

such

 that it is

 

completely

 

cut off. 

As soon

 

as 

a

 

trigger

 

appears

 

and

 

the

 

sweep

 

starts,

 it

 

is

 

necessary to

 

provide 

a

 positive pulse 

on

 

the grid

 

of

 

the 

cathode 

ray 

tube

 

and

 

thus 

turn on

 the

 

electron

 

beam. 

This

 

pulse 

should

 have

 

an extremely

 

fast

 rise

 

and

 a very

 

flat 

top 

so

 that

 

the

 

brightness 

of 

the

 

image is

 

uniform.

 To 

secure a

 pulse of

 this

 

nature,

 the 

negative 

pulse 

from

 

the 

grid

 

of

 

V5

 

is

 

limited

 by plate 

current cutoff 

in 

V7.1A 

before

 

it

 

reaches

 

full amplitude.

 

The

 

voltage 

divider

 R37,

 

R38 

sets

 the 

d.c. 

bias

 

on

 

the

 

grid 

of

 

V7.1A

 

at 

approximately

 

0

 

volts

 

and

 supplies

 

a

 negative

 

pulse 

of

 45

 volts amplitude.

 Cl

 

2

 insures

 

that 

the

 

leading

 

edge 

will

 

be

 

coupled

 

thru

 

without

 loss

 

of

 

rise 

time

 

due

 

to

 

grid

 

and 

wiring

 

capacities 

to 

ground.

 

The 

45

 volt 

negative 

pulse

 

is

 more

 

than

 adequate

 

to

 

drive

 

V7.1A

 

into 

cutoff,

 

thus

 

producing at

 

the

 

plate

 

a

 

square,

 

flat 

topped

 

posi­

tive

 

pulse having

 

an

 

amplitude

 of 

80 

volts. 

To 

provide

 

increased

 rise

 time,

 

L2.1

 is

 

employed

 

in

 the 

plate 

circuit 

of

 

V7.1A.

 

The 

cathode follower V7.1B

 

serves

 

to

 isolate

 

the 

plate 

circuit

 

of

 

V7.1A

 

from

 

the 

capacity to

 ground 

of

 the

 

cathode

 

ray 

tube

 grid 

and

 

associated

 

wiring,

 

thus

 

preventing

 

any 

appreciable

 reduction

 in

 

rise

 

time

 

due

 

to

 

their

 effect.

 

This

 

circuit

 

is

 

capable of

 unblanking

 

the 

tube

 in

 

less

 

than

 

.1

 

microsecond after a 

sharp

 trigger

 

pulse

 reaches

 

the

 

TRIGGER 

INPUT

 binding post.

Gate

 

Output

 Generator

V8

 

serves

 

to

 isolate

 

the

 

gate

 output

 

binding

 

posts

 

from 

the

 

multivibrator.

 

It

 

receives

 a

 

positive

 

pulse on its

 

grid

 

of

 

the same

 duration 

as

 the 

sweep

 

from the

 plate of 

V5 

via the voltage

 

divider 

R32

 and 

R33.

 C

10

 maintains the

 

steep

 

sides 

of 

the

 

pulse.

 

Since

 

the 

plate

 

and

 

cathode

 

load

 

resistors

 are 

equal,

 

pulses

 of 

equal

 

size

 

but

 oppo

­

site

 

polarity

 

appear 

at

 

the

 

plate and cathode. The

 

+gate

 

from

 

the 

cathode

 

has no

 

blocking

 

capacitor 

and 

therefore

 preserves

 

the

 square

 

pulse

 for

 the 

longest 

sweeps. 

It

 

was

 

not 

felt

 

desirable 

to

 

have

 

the

 

Gate 

binding

 post carry the

 

+225 

V potential

 of the

 

plate; 

therefore

 

blocking 

capacitor

 

is 

used.

Sweep

 

Generator

The

 sweep

 

generator

 

circuit 

produces

 the 

basic

 

wave

 

necessary

 

to

 

sweep the

 

beam

 

linearly

 across

 

the

 

tube

 

and

 return it

 

to

 its 

starting

 

point.

 

During

 

the

 waiting

 

period

 the 6AG7 

tube

 

V9

 

is

 

held

 

fully

 

conducting

 

since

 

it

 has

 no

 bias

 

and

 

therefore

 

its 

plate

 

is

 

about

 

at

 ground

 

potential.

 

When 

a

 trigger

 

occurs

 

the

 

negative pulse 

from

 

the 

multivibrator

 

cuts 

the

 

grid

 

of 

V9

 off 

very

 

rapidly. 

The

 plate

 therefore

 

rises 

in exponential

 

fashion

 

at

 

rate 

depending

 

upon

 R20D,

 

R20D1-9

 

(as 

determined

 by

 

setting

 

of

 

S10B),

 

R39, 

the

 

voltage

 

applied

 

across

 

the 

circuit,

 and

 

Cl5.

 

When

 

the 

multivibrator

 

pulse

 

ends

 

V9

 conducts 

again,

 

thus

 

discharging

 

C1

5. 

Since

 

C1

is 

charged to 

only

 

about

 

5%

 

of

 

the

 

supply

 

voltage

 the 

rate

 

of

 

rise

 

is 

very

 

nearly

 

linear.

Sweep 

Magnifier

The

 function

 of

 

this

 

circuit

 

is

 

to

 delay the 

start

 

of

 

the

 

sweep

 

for a 

variable

 

time,

 and

 

then cause 

it

 to 

go

 

at

 

five 

times

 

its

 

normal

 

speed. This is 

accomplished

 

by

 

the 

biased

 

cathode

 

coupled 

amplifier 

V11

.

 

In

 

this 

type

 

of amplifier a

 

positive

 

change

 

in

 the grid 

potential

 of 

V

11A raises both cathodes

 and 

therefore

 

corresponds

 to

 

a

 negative

 

change

 

on

 

the

 grid

 

of 

V11B. 

Thus

 

the 

plate 

of

 

V

11

 

gives

 

an amplified 

version 

of 

the

 

signal 

on 

the

 

grid 

of

 

V11A,

 

without

 

change of 

polarity.
