摘要:
The present disclosure relates to a particle and energy detection system. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to coherent particle generation/detection devices configured to detect a plurality of particles (or energy quanta) which are caused to be combined by superposition upon impacting the detector and imparting a portion of their kinetic energy to the detection process. Additionally, a low power particle generating system that uses a particle generator device configured to generate a plurality of excitation signals which are caused to be focused and impinge upon a separating mechanism is provided so as to direct the particle beam to optimize the system's detection capability.
摘要:
Methods and apparatus for the soft start of linear regulators for controlling inrush current. In linear regulators having a pass transistor controlled by a regulator control circuit, the regulator control circuit is disabled until the regulator output reaches a predetermined threshold level. On startup, an additional transistor is coupled with a resistor and capacitor to the control terminal of the pass transistor in such a way as to provide for the slow turn-on of the pass transistor. During this time, the control circuit for the pass transistor is held inoperative. After the regulator output reaches a predetermined threshold, the pass transistor control circuit becomes operative and the slow start circuitry becomes inoperative.
