ABSTRACT:
A device for generating light pulses that are separated in terms of time has a light source that emits a sequence of light pulses. A regulation signal is formed within a regulation circuit from a cycle signal and the light pulse sequence of the light sources via a phase detector. The regulation circuit includes a regulator that generates a setting signal that influences the repeat frequency of the light pulse sequence of the light source.
