Linage Converter Camera For 0. 5 to 10,000 Microsecond Photographs

摘要

Equipment is described for making photographs using an image converter tube as an electronic shutter. When operating in the framing mode, the camera will take three frames 10 to 10,000 µsec apart with exposure times from 0. 5 to 2000 µsec. Each frame has a maximum diameter of 25 mm. When operating in the streak mode, the camera has streak times from 10 to 10,000 µsec. The streak picture is about 60 mm long and 25 mm wide. The equipment uses the RCA 73435D image converter tube. A standard oscilloscope camera is used to record the images. Design of the equipment is discussed and circuits for controlling and timing the photographs described.
