Pulse length 20ns f.w.h.m.
Trigger Input 3 volts 10ns f.w.h.m. into 50Ω
 Maximum repetition rate Depends upon the voltage. 40Hz at 15kV into an open circuit.
 Voltage range -0.2kV to -15kV as a negative pulse device
 Jitter Approximately 100ps or less (hard to measure)
 Main output Output will > 20kV into an open circuit with the HT set to maximum.
Output will drive and resistive or slightly capacitive (<1nF) load at the end of a 75Ω cable.
 Synchronisation Output TTL approximately 50ns after trigger.
Reverse terminated 75Ω
 Remote HT enable This 12 volt input needs to be shorted to activate the HT
 Status TTL (high on ready) on the front panel for remote interrogation of the status. The status is high when the voltage on the switch equals that preset on the front panel, and when the HT is on.
 Connectors
 
 Power IEC Universal 85 to 264 volts A.C. at 47 to 440Hz. 2 amp fuse, type T (anti-surge). This unit contains an auto-resetting thermal trip rated at 70°C. Maximum average power consumption 25 watts.
 Trigger input BNC
 Sychronisation output BNC
 Status Output Lemo 00 (Part number FFA.00S.250.CTA C27)
 HT Enable Lemo 00 (Part number FFA.00S.250.CTA C27)
 Main output Fischer DK105A005/7.2 Note that the output has a female centre pin.
