Features

  • Operating in "shelf" mode with rise time less then 2 ns
  • Low voltage (5 V) power supply
  • Built-in pulsed high-voltage source
  • Reduced electro-magnetic noise due to bipolar HV pulse relative to common ground
  • Positive logical level trigger 3 ÷ 8 V
  • Output pulse amplitude adjustment by built-in potentiometer or by external signal
  • Additional output signal for HV-pulse amplitude measurement
  • Highly reliable topology
  • Ultra-compact design and light weight
