Exposure lamp control device
First Claim
1. A device for controlling an exposure lamp for exposing or projecting an original image comprising:
- a. a pulse oscillator means whose pulse repetition rate is variable, b. a pulse width conversion or changing means for changing the pulse width of the output pulses of said pulse oscillator means, and c. a switching means adapted to be turned on and off in response to the output pulses from said pulse width conversion or changing means.

Abstract
A device for controlling an exposure lamp for projecting an original image by changing pulse repetition rate or pulse width which activates the lamp. There are included a pulse oscillator, a pulse width controlling circuit, and a switching circuit. The pulse oscillator includes a plurality of pulse repetition rate setting circuits corresponding to the number of desired color separations. The pulse width controlling circuit includes a plurality of pulse width setting circuits corresponding to the number of desired color separations. The pulse repetition rate of the pulse oscillator or the pulse width of the pulse controlling circuit may be set to a desired value depending upon a desired separation negative.
