INTRODUCTION

The AVL-AV-1-W-B is a high performance, GPIB and RS2 2-equipped instrument

capable of generating up to 100V into 50Ω loads. The rise time (20%-80%) is less than

2 ns, and the fall time (80%-20%) is less than ns. The output pulse width is variable

from 5 ns to 400 ns, at repetition rates up to 50 kHz.

Instruments with the "-P" model suffix can generate up to +100V, whereas instruments

with the "-N" model suffix can generate up to -100V. Instruments with the "-PN" suffix

can generate both polarities.

A 50 Ohm load is required for proper operation. The output stage may be damaged if

the output is not terminated into a 50Ω load.

The AVL-AV-1-W-B is a highly flexible instrument. Aside from the internal trigger

source, it can also be triggered or gated by external TTL-level signals. A front-panel

pushbutton or a computer command can also be used to trigger the instrument.

The AVL-AV-1-W-B features front panel keyboard and adjust knob control of the output

pulse parameters along with a four line by 40-character backlit LCD display of the

output amplitude, pulse width, pulse repetition frequency, and delay. The instrument

includes memory to store up to four complete instrument setups. The operator may use

the front panel or the computer interface to store a complete “snapshot” of all key

instrument settings, and recall this setup at a later time.

This instrument is intended for use in research, development, test and calibration

laboratories by qualified personnel.

SPECIFICATIONS

Model1: AVL-AV-1-W-B

Maximum amplitude2:

(50Ω load required7)100 V

Rise time (20%-80%): ≤ 2 ns

Fall time (80%-20%): ≤ ns

Pulse width (FWHM): 5 - 400 ns

PRF: 0 to 50 kHz

Polarity : Positive or negative or both (specify)

Jitter: ± 100 ps ± 0.0 % of sync delay (Ext trig in to pulse out)

GPIB & RS-2 2 control1: Standard on -B units.

LabView drivers: Check http://www.avtechpulse.com/labview for availability and downloads

Ethernet port, for remote

control using VXI-11. ,

ssh, telnet, & web:

Included. Recommended as a modern alternative to GPIB / RS-2 2.

See http://www.avtechpulse.com/options/vxi for details.

Settings resolution: The resolution of the timing parameters (pulse width, delay, period) varies,

but is always better than 0.15% of (|set value| + 20 ns).

The amplitude resolution is < 0.1% of the maximum amplitude.

Settings accuracy: Typically ± 4% (± 2 ns or ± 4% of max. amplitude) after 10 minute warmup.

For high-accuracy applications requiring traceable calibration,

verify the output parameters with a calibrated oscilloscope8.

DC offset or bias

insertion4:

Option available. Apply required DC offset or bias in the range of ± 50 Volts

(250 mA max) to back panel solder terminal.

Standard trigger modes: Internal trigger, external trigger (TTL level pulse, > 10 ns, 1 kΩ input impedance),

front-panel “Single Pulse” pushbutton, or single pulse trigger via computer command.

Variable delay5: Sync to main out: 0 to 1.0 seconds, for all trigger modes (including external trigger).

Sync output: > + Volts, > 50 ns, will drive 50 Ohm loads

Propagation delay: ≤ 50 ns (Ext trig in to pulse out)

Gate input: Synchronous. Active high or low, switchable. Suppresses triggering when active.

Monitor output option6: Provides a 20 dB attenuated coincident replica of the main output

Connectors: BNC

Power requirements: 100 - 240 Volts, 50 - 60 Hz

Dimensions: H x W x D: 100 mm x 4 0 mm x 75 mm ( .9” x 17” x 14.8”)

Chassis material: Cast aluminum frame & handles, blue vinyl on aluminum cover plates

Mounting: Any

Temperature range: +5°C to +40°C

1) -B suffix indicates IEEE-488.2 GPIB and RS-2 2 control of amplitude, pulse width, PRF and delay (see http://www.avtechpulse.com/gpib).

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.

) Indicate desired polarity by suffixing model number with -P or -N (i.e. positive or negative) or -PN for dual polarity option. Polarity reversal is achieved

via keypad or computer control.

4) For DC offset option suffix model number with -OS.

5) Delay must be less than the period (1 / PRF).

6) For monitor option add suffix -M. The monitor, when used, will load down the main output slightly, causing a 10% drop in the maximum main output

amplitude.

7) A 50 Ohm load is required. Other loads may damage the instrument. Consult Avtech (inf[email protected]) if you need to drive other load

impedances.

8) These instruments are provided with a basic calibration checksheet, showing a selection of measured output parameters. These measurements are

performed with equipment that is calibrated on a regular basis by a third-party ISO/IEC 17025:2005 accredited calibration laboratory. However,

Avtech itself does not claim any accreditation. For applications requiring traceable performance, use a calibrated measurement system rather than

relying on the accuracy of the pulse generator settings.

REGULATORY NOTES

FCC PART 18

This device complies with part 18 of the FCC rules for non-consumer industrial,

scientific and medical (ISM) equipment.

This instrument is enclosed in a rugged metal chassis and uses a filtered power entry

module (where applicable). The main output signal is provided on a shielded connector

that is intended to be used with shielded coaxial cabling and a shielded load. Under

these conditions, the interference potential of this instrument is low.

If interference is observed, check that appropriate well-shielded cabling is used on the

output connectors. Contact Avtech (info@avtechpulse.com) for advice if you are unsure

of the most appropriate cabling. Also, check that your load is adequately shielded. It

may be necessary to enclose the load in a metal enclosure.

If any of the connectors on the instrument are unused, they should be covered with

shielded metal “dust caps” to reduce the interference potential.

This instrument does not normally require regular maintenance to minimize interference

potential. However, if loose hardware or connectors are noted, they should be

tightened. Contact Avtech (info@avtechpulse.com) if you require assistance.

FIRMWARE LICENSING

Instruments with firmware versions 5.00 or higher use open-source software internally.

Some of this software requires that the source code be made available to the user as a

condition of its licensing. This source code is available upon request (contact

[email protected]om).

Earlier firmware versions do not contain any open source software.

INSTALLATION

VISUAL CHECK

After unpacking the instrument, examine to ensure that it has not been damaged in

shipment. Visually inspect all connectors, knobs, liquid crystal displays (LCDs), and the

handles. Confirm that a power cord, a GPIB cable, and two instrumentation manuals

(this manual and the “Programming Manual for -B Instruments”) are with the

instrument. If the instrument has been damaged, file a claim immediately with the

company that transported the instrument.

POWER RATINGS

This instrument is intended to operate from 100 - 240 V, 50 - 60 Hz.

The maximum power consumption is 57 Watts. Please see the “FUSES” section for

information about the appropriate AC and DC fuses.

This instrument is an “Installation Category II” instrument, intended for operation from a

normal single-phase supply.

CONNECTION TO THE POWER SUPPLY

An IEC- 20 three-pronged recessed male socket is provided on the back panel for AC

power connection to the instrument. One end of the detachable power cord that is

supplied with the instrument plugs into this socket. The other end of the detachable

power cord plugs into the local mains supply. Use only the cable supplied with the

instrument. The mains supply must be earthed, and the cord used to connect the

instrument to the mains supply must provide an earth connection. (The supplied cord

does this.)

Warning: Failure to use a grounded outlet may result in injury or death due to

electric shock. This product uses a power cord with a ground connection. It must be

connected to a properly grounded outlet. The instrument chassis is connected to the

ground wire in the power cord.

The table below describes the power cord that is normally supplied with this instrument,

depending on the destination region:
