Re: [beam] Slow pulsar

Hmm, neither can I.

The QLF2 circuit can be made to sort of work with several additional
components.

Attached is an all opamp PWM circuit and a hybrid PWM circuit of which the
QFL4 is the lowest part count so far.

Yes, "between 1V and 2V p/p" is questionable shorthand for a triangular waveform with lower and upper peaks of 1V and 2V. Another way to describe it as a...
