Title :
Directional-Coupler Technique for Triggering a Tunnel Diode
Author :
Andrews, James R.
Abstract :
Present tunnel diode (TD) pulse generators have distortions in the pulse baseline and topline due to feedthrough of the triggering signal. This paper presents a new technique for reducing the trigger-induced distortions. A directional coupler is used to couple the trigger signal to the TD.
