pulser
Signal burst device
A pulser is a device that generates electrical pulses—brief, discrete bursts of current or voltage.
Pulsers appear in medical equipment, radar systems, and scientific instruments where precisely timed signals matter: The cardiac pulser delivered shocks at regular intervals.
In some contexts, pulser refers to any mechanism that produces rhythmic pulses, mechanical or otherwise.
