Motivation
This module takes the incoming gate or trigger and routes it to either of its two outputs. The distribution is software driven, according to a random coin toss. You can select the probability distribution with a potentiometer and an input control voltage. The potentiometer voltage and the control voltage are added together. The probability goes from 0% to 100% at output A and from 100% to 0% on output B.
