Propagation delay: ≤ 150 ns (Ext trig in to pulse out)
Jitter: ± 35 ps ± 0.015% of sync delay (Ext trig in to pulse out)
DC offset or bias insertion: Apply required DC bias current in the range of ± 100 mA to solder terminal on output module.
Sync delay: Variable 0 to ±1 second, sync out to pulse out
Sync output: + 3 Volts, 100 ns, will drive 50 Ohms
ate input: Synchronous or asynchronous, active high or low, switchable. Suppresses triggering when active.
Trigger required: External trigger mode: TTL-level pulse (LO = 0V, HI = 3-5V), ≥ 10 ns
Connectors: Out:

User-specified socket. Sockets can be provided for 5.6 mm, 9 mm, butterfly, and other packages.
Trig, Sync, ate: BNC, Monitor: SMA
Recommended accessory kit: Add the suffix "-AK2" to the model number to include the recommended accessory kit.
Consists of one SMA 12 Hz 20 Watt attenuator (20 dB) and two SMA 18 Hz 2 Watt
attenuators (10 & 20 dB) for use on the output, and two 50 Ohm, 1 Hz, 1 Watt
feed-through terminators (one SMA, one BNC) for use on external trigger inputs.
Power requirements: 100 - 240 Volts, 50 - 60 Hz
Dimensions: Mainframe:
(H×W×D) Output module:
100 x 430 x 375 mm (3.9” x 17” x 14.8”) , anodized aluminum, with blue plastic trim
41 x 66 x 76 mm (1.6” x 2.6” x 3.0”), cast aluminum, blue enamel
Temperature range: +5°C to +40°C
1) -B suffix indicates IEEE-488.2 PIB and RS-232 control of amplitude and frequency. See http://www.avtechpulse.com/gpib/ for details.
2) For operation at amplitudes of less than 20% of full-scale, best results will be obtained by setting the amplitude near full-scale and using external attenuators on the output,
between the mainframe and the output module.
3) Indicate desired polarity by suffixing model number with -P or -N (i.e. positive or negative).
4) The minimum PRF of the internal oscillator is 1 Hz on -B units. There is no minimum in the external trigger mode.
