Abstract
A circuit is described in which avalanche transistors in parallel generate high-current, fast ristime pulses suitable for driving injection lasers. A 55 A, 20 ns risetime pulse was produced at a repetition rate of 10 kHz. An adjustable biasing technique makes possible the simultaneous avalanche of unmatched transistors.Keywords
