Abstract:
A variable pulse width circuit comprising a semiconductor switch and a circuit of a pair of capacitors in series with the switch. The capacitors have a rectifier joining one side of said capacitors. The capacitors are in series with the load and are connected to a charging circuit. Two current paths are provided to enable charge of such capacitors under conditions where wide and narrow pulse widths of load current are obtained. Also obtained are higher and lower amplitudes of voltage pulses from the charging circuit.
