Automatic delay controller

An automatic delay controller is described for a system for radiographic recording of high-speed processes whose speed varies from experiment to experiment. The controller has been used with a MIRA-5B/1 source of single x-ray pulses. The controller is implemented by integrated circuits of series 155 and permits discrete variation of the trigger-pulse delay in the range of (1-16)H, where H is the distance between the detectors of the phase of the high-speed process. The accuracy of locking of the trigger pulse of the x-ray radiator onto a given phase of the process under study is 1 μsec. The trigger-pulse delay range is 0-999 μsec
