Abstract
Input pulses are coupled through a delay network to a pulse amplifier. The amplifier includes feedback circuitry for correcting its output to a particular baseline level, generally zero volts. Within the amplifier feedback path is a gate, which is normally closed. Input pulses are also coupled to a pulse detector; whenever an input pulse is detected, the baseline gate in the amplifier feedback path is open, and the dynamic feedback operation is temporarily inhibited. During this time, the most recent previous level of baseline correction is retained.
