Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim
138 words
AN ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT FOR PROVIDING VOLTAGE PULSES HAVING A PREDETERMINED MAXIMUM AMPLITUDE COMPRISING: A SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE HAVING AT LEAST AN EMITTER ELECTRODE, A LOAD IMPEDANCE, VOLTAGE LEVEL SHIFTING MEANS CONNECTED BETWEEN SAID EMITTER ELECTRODE AND ONE END OF SAID LOAD IMPEDANCE, SAID LOAD IMPEDANCE BEING ADAPTED TO HAVE AN EMITTER SUPPLY VOLTAGE COUPLED TO ITS OTHER END, OUTPUT MEANS COUPLED TO THE JUNCTION OF SAID LEVEL SHIFTING MEANS AND SAID LOAD IMPEDANCE, A UNIDIRECTIONAL MEANS ALSO COUPLED TO THE JUNCTION OF SAID LEVEL SHIFTING MEANS AND SAID LOAD IMPEDANCE FOR ELECTRICALLY CONNECTING SAID JUNCTION TO A SOURCE OF ELECTRICAL POTENTIAL WHICH IS EQUAL TO SAID PREDETERMINED MAXIMUM AMPLITUDE OF SAID VOLTAGE PULSES WHENEVER A VOLTAGE DROP ACROSS SAID VOLTAGE LEVEL SHIFTING MEANS CAUSES THE VOLTAGE AT SAID JUNCTION TO TEND TO BECOME GREATER THAN SAID PREDETERMINED MAXIMUM AMPLITUDE.
