The Schmitt trigger was invented by American scientist Otto H. Schmitt in 1934 while he was a graduate student, [1] later described in his doctoral dissertation (1937) as a thermionic trigger. [2] It was a direct result of Schmitt's study of the neural impulse propagation in squid nerves.
A Triggering device is an electronic circuit, such as a Schmitt trigger, which is used to control another electronic circuit. Uses In many of industrial operations ...
A vacuum tube Abraham-Bloch multivibrator oscillator, France, 1920 (small box, left).Its harmonics are being used to calibrate a wavemeter (center).. The first multivibrator circuit, the classic astable multivibrator oscillator (also called a plate-coupled multivibrator) was first described by Henri Abraham and Eugene Bloch in Publication 27 of the French Ministère de la Guerre, and in ...
One example is the Schmitt trigger (which is also known as a regenerative comparator), but the most common use of the term is in RF amplifiers, and especially regenerative receivers, to greatly increase the gain of a single amplifier stage. [4] [5] [6]
Tariffs on goods from Mexico and Canada that are set to take effect could hike the price of a gallon of gasoline for some drivers by as much as 70 cents and send grocery bills climbing, experts ...
Relaxation oscillators are generally used to produce low frequency signals for such applications as blinking lights and electronic beepers. During the vacuum tube era they were used as oscillators in electronic organs and horizontal deflection circuits and time bases for CRT oscilloscopes; one of the most common was the Miller integrator circuit invented by Alan Blumlein, which used vacuum ...
