Abstract

See full text

A signal generator produces an output signal in response to an input step signal using two transmission lines with characteristic impedances corresponding to the impedances of a signal source and a load. The input signal is applied to the inner conductor of the first transmission line, which has the outer shield grounded. The input signal is applied to the outer shield of the second transmission line, which has a floating outer shield. The inner conductor and the outer shield of the first transmission line are open at the second end. The inner conductor and the outer shield of the second transmission line are shorted at the second end. This transmission line is bridged by two resistors, the junction of which is connected to the inner conductor of the transmission line. The output signal has a first step at half the input voltage and a second step at the input voltage.
