1. 1  GENERAL INFORMATION
     The GG200 GATE GENERATOR (Fig. 1) provides gating (on-off control) signals for certain M100 System Modules, and provides versatile timing signals for system use.  Six outputs are provided: system logic and gate signals and their complements, and delayed positive and negative trigger signals at the end of each gating cycle.  The width of the gate and logic signals is adjustable from 100 nSec to 11 Sec in eight overlapping ranges, and the width is virtually unaffected by duty-factor variations.  The GG200 timing cycle may be started and stopped by either logic signals or high-level signals.  Output gate and logic signals may be vetoed (notched) by logic signals.  All outputs will drive 50-ohm loads and are fully protected from overload.  A front-panel lamp indicates both normal operation and overload.
