ABSTRACT:
A pulse shaper has a periodically reversible capacitor for pulse shaping. In performing testing of electronic components, the test specimens must be driven with different or, respectively, variable pulses. To this end, the pulse shaper has two mutually symmetrical circuits serving for the periodic charging and discharging of the capacitor, the circuits respectively containing binarilly switched adjustable resistors for setting the rise time and fall time of the pulse edges of the pulses to be formed, as well as containing a current source and a voltage source for the proportional change of the edge steepness with respect to the change of the shift of the pulses. In addition, voltage limitation is provided to generate the desired amplitude shift with respect to the baseline voltage with structure assigned to each circuit, the bias voltage sources of such structure being variable as a function of the shift to be set. The charging and discharging occurs by way of a periodically switched differential switch respectively comprising two transistors. The pulse shaper of the invention is particularly suited for automatic testing units for data processing devices.
