The circuitry of a low cost pulse generator based on a commercially available digital integrated circuit is presented. The circuit produces ‘rectangular’ pulses of amplitude 0.77 V and width 362 ps at half amplitude, and 0.688 V peak‐to‐peak monocycle pulses with a −10 dB bandwidth of 1.2787 GHz (0.1191 to −1.3978 GHz). © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
