Abstract
This research report reviews the basics of pulse code modulation (PCM) techniques and includes a special encoder design for a system which uses a laser diode output for the transmitted pulse. The text discusses PCM and its features, PCM formats, synchronization, and various accepted PCM codes. The encode circuit design is complete with a description of the circuit, circuit components, and operation. Included are the necessary diagrams, figures, specifications, and parts list. The transmitted output of the design circuit has a repetition rate of one megabit per second.
