Abstract:
A triggering circuit for producing an oscilloscope sweep trigger signal employing a pair of parallel current paths, one path including one input of a first logic gate and a current control device coupled thereto and the second path including one input of a second logic gate and a second current control device coupled thereto. Feedback circuits couple the output of each gate to said input of each gate for regenerative feedback. A reset control signal is coupled to a second input of each gate. The output of said one gate is coupled to a third input of said second gate. A sync signal controls each of said current control devices to control the current through each path for operating said gates in sequence, said first gate operating at a preselected level in one half cycle of said sync signal and said second gate operating at a preselected level in the next half cycle of said sync signal to produce said triggering signal.
