HP 214B High Power Pulse Generator

The HP 214B is a high power pulse generator designed for applications requiring fast, high voltage pulses. It employs semiconductor technology to deliver pulses up to 100V with 15 ns risetimes at a repetition rate of up to 10 MHz.

Key Features

  • High Power Pulse Generation: Up to 100V pulses with 15 ns risetimes.
  • High Repetition Rate: Up to 10 MHz.
  • VMOS FET Technology: Used as current sources for the output amplifier tubes, enabling pulse widths as low as 25 ns.
  • Constant Duty Cycle (CDC) Mode: Provides device protection by maintaining constant power as frequency is varied.
  • Overload Protection: Protects the device against excessive duty cycles.
  • Timing Error Indication: Ensures easy operation with calibrated dials for fast and accurate adjustments.
  • Low Reactance 50 Ω Source Impedance: Guarantees clean pulse shape into unmatched loads, with pulse distortions such as preshoot and overshoot specified as 5% at all amplitudes.

Applications

  • Low Duty Cycle Applications: Suitable for laser diode pulsing or transient simulation.
  • Device Testing: Ideal for testing devices that require high power pulses without risking damage due to changing duty cycles.

Specifications

  • Pulse Amplitude: Up to 100V.
  • Risetime: 15 ns.
  • Repetition Rate: Up to 10 MHz.
  • Pulse Width: Down to 25 ns.
