For a complete

the

is as

In  this channel 
tbe simiiar 
state is 
provided 
when 
pulses
are 
fed 
to the 
t,unnel 
diode. 
The firsi; iransisior 
periodicaily 
becomes 
conduciive.
The 
pulses 
are 
'tectified" 
by  t,he 
capacitor 
C3. 
The 
transistor 
QP 
becomes 
cut
off. 
After 
the capacitor  C4 
has 
discharged, 
the 
transistor 
Q4 
also 
stops 
conduct-
ing. 
The 
cutoff 
pulse 
is temoved  from 
the flip-fiop 
and 
capacitor 
C5  charges.
AJter  it  is charged 
to the 
potential 
applied 
to the emitter 
of 
transistor 
Q5, 
the
diode 
Di 
is 
ready to start 
conducting.  The 
next

in 
sequence 
from 
the on-off
wave 
generator 
(avalanche 
diode 
D2 
and capaeitor 
C2) is 
fed 
through 
the 
diode
and flips 
the flip-flop. 
The 
time  deiay fiip-flop  utilizes 
transistors 
of  distinct
types  which 
are 
in  simiiar 
states. 
When 
flipped,  both 
of 
the 
transistors  are
triggered

and tbe relay  functions
The 
same happens 
to  the 
other  channei 
'when 
the 
pulses 
disappear 
from 
the
tunnel 
diodes. The discharge 
resisLor

In  this 
case
the voitage

canceis

operation
of 
the 
regulator  involves almost 
full  time  dela-v. 
When 
tbe  discharge 
resistance
is 
commensurate 
with  the 
charging 
resistance 
R[Z,the 
time  delaf 
is not can-
celed at once 
when 
the voitage returns 
to

Repeated

The
