The clock is delayed, amplified and limited, then fed to a Schottky-diode based pulse shaper with L-C compensating networks. The output pulse has a rise time of max. 150 picoseconds with less than 2% aberrations.

The staircase generator for Gain mode is implemented using a 4 bit count and multiplexer.  The 0-volt step (No. 6) is held for five counts, producing a brighter trace to allow easy alignment wit the center of the screen.

For bandwidth measurements, there is a leveler circuit with a differential diode detector controlling an amplifier's gain in an AGC loop.
