Homework Statement
Two meters of cable of inductance per unit length 0.169 microH/ft and 30.0 pF/ft are connected in between a pulse generator with a 175 ohm output impedance and a pulse counter with 1 Kohm input impedance. If the output of the generator is a single 5V pulse of duration 0.1ns, what is the amplitude of the pulse when it reaches the detector? What is the amplitude of the voltage amplitude of the reflected pulse when it reaches the detector for the first time? The second time? If the pulse counter can count pulses which have a voltage amplitude between 0.3 and 0.7 V, how many pulses will the detector count?
How would you solve the reflection problem caused by mismatched impedances above?
Homework Equations
A(ref) = A(inc)(Z-Z0)/(Z+Z0)
The Attempt at a Solution
Using above mentioned equation i got 2V as reflected amplitude.
But i am sure how to proceed after that. I am not clear with question being asked.
Thanx for reading
