Abstract

A new electric circuit for generating extremely fast triangle waveform pulse with avalanche transistors has been designed and developed. In order to reduce the jitter of this circuit, a specially designed trigger unit has been employed. The experiments have shown that the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the generated triangle waveform pulse is 3.5 ns and its rising and falling times are both 2 ns at the amplitude of +/- 1.3 KV. The testing has also indicated that its delay time and jitter are 8 ns and +/- 15 ps, respectively when the light signal changes by 30%. This circuit will find wide application in the picosecond framing and femtosecond streak cameras.
