Note About Compatibility
Obsolescence planning is a significant portion of manufacturing control, as
the speed at which electronic components come to market and reach end of
life continues to increase. While each revision of our electronics is a reflec-
tion of newer, faster, and better components, we work very hard to ensure
that the final product is completely backwards compatible. We acheived this
goal with the latest updates to the pulsed discharge controller—it will work
with any PDD in the field. We plan to continue support for older models for
a very long time.
