The AV-106 series of pulse generators is designed for pulsing laser diodes and other low impedance loads with rectangular current pulses as high 100 Amps, with wide pulse widths.
The AV-106A family provides up to 30 A with pulse widths variable from 0.5 to 50 us and 50 ns rise and fall times. These units will operate with a load voltage in the range of 0 to 30 V, and exhibit less than a 5% change in current for a load voltage change of 30 Volts. For higher currents, the AV-106B family provides up to
100A in the pulse width range of 2 to 200 us. For wider pulse width applications, the AV-106C family provides pulse widths to 1 ms and peak currents to 15 A. The AV-106D family provides pulse widths to 1 ms, peak currents to 5 A and duty cycles to 50%. All AV-106 models have a rear-panel output connector to which a unique 100 cm long high-current transmission line may be attached (model AV-CLZ1-100).
