Signal clock

The external trigger input allows automatic inspections and ultrasonic imaging. The clock signal of an encoder or of stepper motors can be used as a trigger for the pulser. An internal software controlled divider allows different scan resolutions. 

Using JK flip-flops, we can design a circuit that will count a clock signal and provide a divided output of that clock signal. 

Figure 7.6 shows the schematic of the complete circuit schematic that provides this logic function. The binary counter circuit (Fig. 7.1) provides the input signals, and the AND gates provide the decoder logic. The clock signal is 100 KHz at 50% duty cycle. 

Prior to receipt of photoexcited electrons by the transfer layer, packets of electrons in the transfer layer are removed by clock signals applied to the electrodes 24-42 and drained away via region 50. After this process has been repeated a predetermined number of times, the...

Finally, each computer has a built-in metronome-like signal called a clock signal. There are two types the CPU clock and the bus clock. The former dictates how fast the CPU can run the latter indicates how fast the bus can transmit information. (In the first PCs, the CPU clock was also the clock for the bus.) The speed of the clocks is measured by how fast they tick and is given in millions of cycles per second, or Megahertz (MHz). The bus or the CPU can perform an operation only on the occurrence of a tick signal. Think of the clock signal as a type of metronome that keeps the processor in time. ...

Hardware. To employ the IDA, the user must supply a clock signal, a begin scan signal, and data acquisition hardware. The hardware to accomplish this has been based on a PDP 11/20 minicomputer or a KIM microcomputer plus additional external hardware (13-15). The clock signal determines the rate at which the diodes are interrogated during readout and was 33 kHz with the minicomputer and 125 kHz with the microcomputer. This means the time to read out all 512 diodes and hence the minimum integration time varies from 15 ms to 3.7 ms, respectively. For the microcomputer, direct memory access (DMA) circuitry was used to increase the data acquisition rate.

In the new design, we use two H-trees to deliver clock signals for the top level chip and bottom level chip, respectively. The two H-trees are interconnected through 128 inter-chip contacts to reduce clock skew. 

Fig. 7.4. A block diagram showing the elements of a typical organic RFID circuit. The clock generates a repeating sequence of codes, typically using a ring oscillator as a timebase. The decoding circuit analyzes the clock signal and turns the load on and off at the appropriate times, generating the output sequence.

The macro time clock can be started by an external experiment trigger or by a start-measurement command from the operating software. In some TCSPC modules the clock signal source of the macro time clock can be selected. The macro time clock can be an internal quartz oscillator, an external clock source, or the reference signal from the laser. Triggering and external clock synchronisation are absolute requirements for multimodule operation in the time-tag mode, see Sect. 5.11.3, page 189. 

Unlike asynchronous counters, in which the output change of one flip-flop is applied to the clock input and thus changes the state of a succeeding flip-flop, synchronous-counter flip-flop outputs set up the J and K inputs of succeeding flip-flops so that a common clock-signal can cause the proper count sequence to occur. 

FIGU RE 11.1 A schematic diagram of an atomic clock. The atomic reference (0) 1) i provided by an atomic transition of an atom or a molecule. The fluorescence of the transition is detected by the oscillator (the local oscillator), which excites the atomic system at CBo. Before each interrogation, to make cOq a close as possible to cOac the servo loop adjusts the CBo fluorescence signal. A part of the signal of the local oscillator at cOo delivers the clock signal. 

A binary pseudorandom, excitation is the simplest to generate signal [7]. It can be formed directly from a clock signal with frequency /elk using the sequence of k trigger circuits (oo to flk i) constituting a shift register...
