Hi everyone, can you help me to understand the exact designation of this circuit. The clock signal can be 125kHz or 250kHz and its apllyed to the circuit which is given below. The capacitor which is connected in shunt mode can short the high frequency signals. What is the use of this capacitor? pujulde_20160812_102504_reduced.jpg

Where is this circuit from?
The capacitors can't short the clock, they just connect 100 Ohms to chassis.
What is the relationship between the clock signal lines and the chassis connection?

As i see understand this signal is only for driving the transistor. The relationship between chasis and output i dont know. Capacitor cannot short because of what? Ok its not a low pass filter but anyway if it was without capacitor what difference could be ?

I now get an error trying to view your attachment.
Last time I looked, from each clock input there was a capacitor in series with 100 Ohm resistor to chassis. That 100 Ohms is the minimum possible impedance that series combination can be.
Those capacitors and resistors establish a possible current path from the clock inputs to chassis. How much current flows through those paths (and hence what effect they have) depends on the relationship between the clock source and the chassis connection.
