When you need to create simple pulses and don’t have a pulse generator, you can often substitute a function generator. By using a function generator’s triggered burst function, you can create pulses ...

Previously-known schemes for RC rectangular pulse generators with a regulated duty cycle had an ineradicable disadvantage: changing the pulse fill factor (D) inevitably changed the frequency of ...

A free-running generator built on the standard configuration of the 555 timer can't provide a duty cycle of exactly 50%. That's a well-known fact. Fortunately, there are several ways to get around ...
