Thinking about updating my target response tester to include a log amplifier and other modifications to compare with the decay curves I've been doing. Tx rate (1pps), Tx shape(constant current .5A peak or constant rate 1A peak), Tx width(adjustable 50usec to 50msec). Preamp(gain 450),post amp(gain 9). log amplifier(after preamp).
Discussion: constant current peak 1/2 of constant rate peak for same average Tx current, the lower the constant current peak the shorter the ramp time to peak, preamp and post amplifier the same as I've been using, need to modify constant rate circuit to allow adjusting Tx width while keeping 1A peak, Tx rate 1pps for low average Tx current,
Questions: any reason to make Tx rate adjustable? any changes or additions?
Comments or thoughts appreciated, would be easier to include changes now than modify latter.
