TY - JOUR AU - Navathe, C P AB - An electronic circuit called a video synchronization unit (VSU) is developed to synchronize TV grade CCTV cameras, CCTV monitors and video frame grabbers for the capture of pulsed laser parameters. The VSU accepts a video signal from the camera and generates triggers for the laser and frame grabber at required times. It also generates a trigger at any pre-set horizontal line in the video signal, so that the intensity profile of the selected line can be viewed on an oscilloscope. The unit can drive a laser or be driven by the laser either in single-shot or in repetitive mode of operation. With the help of this unit, a video system is built for the capture of pulsed laser beam profiles and fluorescence traces of a picosecond autocorrelator. It is an inexpensive and more readily available alternative to commercial asynchronous video systems.
