FAST SWEEP CIRCUIT FOR FOUR-GUN OSCILLOSCOPE

The circuit described is a buffer amplifier to drive the 4-gun deflection circuits from the oscilloscope sweeps. The circuits' gain is adjusted so that sweep speeds on the 4-gun correspond to the time settings on the oscilloscope. Hence, the 4-gun tube can still be used at slower sweep speeds when the scope is used only to store pulses from large counter arrays. The fastest sweep is 10 nsec/cm. By simple modification, higher sweep speeds can be achieved, but at a sacrifice in stability and linearity. (N.W.R.)
