Apr 10, 2020 at 20:15 comment added jjstcool Unbelievably good answer. I was searching this a whole day, as I found this years ago, and didn't remember where. I even did some surgery on myself, to have more thumbs to give you: four thumbs up!
Aug 3, 2011 at 22:45 comment added BarsMonster Hi again, could you take a look at my comments to 'Olin Lathrop' answers at this question : electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/16994/… : I was trying to improve performance on slow fronts.
Jun 25, 2011 at 18:20 comment added BarsMonster Just finished my PCB for that - push-pull + 2 T-triggers... Getting 15-20ns fronts... But got problem with edge detection - electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/15979/… - maybe you'll have some clues...
Jun 20, 2011 at 17:44 comment added zebonaut I'm flattered. But hey, the question was cool, and when there's a reason for hacking a breadboard, I'm all in for the fun anyway, time permitting. Especially when standard parts are involved that I can take from my drawers of junk boards. Also, breadboarding even simple circuits is probably one of the nicest ways to not forget Jim Williams, the greatest breadboard hacker of all times: edn.com/article/… Sad, sad, news... This is one of his nicest pieces: cds.linear.com/docs/Application%20Note/AN128f.pdf

add picture of breadboarded circuit and oscillograms.

Jun 6, 2011 at 16:22 comment added BarsMonster What a perfect answer, that works perfectly now :-) 5k was there just because I found that there is a balance between capacitance charge speed & saturation slow-down. Now lower values gives better performance, Thanks alot :-)
