sanatron Electronics.|ˈsænətrɒn|
[Perh. irreg. f. sanitary a. (cf. quot. 1951): see -tron.]
A circuit which generates a saw-tooth output waveform on receipt of a short trigger pulse, used in time-bases and similar applications.
1946Jrnl. Inst. Electr. Engineers XCIII. iiia. 1191/1 The circuit, known as the Sanatron, is illustrated in Fig. 5. 1951O. S. Puckle Time Bases (ed. 2) ix. 181 The Royal Air Force used many slang terms. The name ‘Sanatron’ has been derived from the term ‘sanitary’, meaning satisfactory. 1955Electronic Engin. XXVII. 397/2 Examination of the sanatron circuit also shows that the gating waveform is obtained by partial differentiation..and amplification of the sweep waveform. 1966McGraw–Hill Encycl. Sci. & Technol. XIII. 645/1 The basic sanatron delay circuit, of which there are a number of variations, combines in two pentode tubes the function of a gate waveform generator, clamp and linear saw-tooth generator. |
