Stanford DG535(Repetition Rate) This unit sets the macropulse repetition rate by inhibiting the 100 Hz timing signal from the chopper wheel Quantum Composer 8-Channel timing unit This unit is triggered by the Repetition Rate DG535, and takes a clock input from the 81.25 MHz RF reference. On triggering, it waits for the next RF clock cycle, then cascades trigger signals to the Mechanical Shutter (selecting a specific macropulse), and to the Macropulse LengthDG535 to set the macropulse length. Additional trigger signals are provided to the rack room and the TW laser.
