Publication number: 20080224545Abstract: A pulse generating device and method are provided. The pulse generating device includes a control device, a first knob, and a second knob. The control device is configured to receive a pulse signal and generate a pulse command. After being actuated, the first knob provides a single pulse of the pulse signal to the control device for triggering the control device to generate a single pulse command. The second knob provides the pulse signal to the control device in a frequency corresponding to a twisted angle of the second knob so as to trigger the control device to repeatedly generate the pulse command.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 16, 2007Publication date: September 18, 2008Applicant: Industrial Technology Research InstituteInventors: Wan-Kun Chang, Kuei-Lu Liu, Jui-Kuan Lin, Yung-Ming Kao, Shih-Chang Liang, Chia-Sheng Chiang
