The AVR-5B, AVR-7B, and AVR-8A series of pulse generators are fast high-voltage pulse generators capable of driving load impedances of 50ohm and higher. These easy-to-use models are suitable for many different test applications, including resistor and attenuator testing, semiconductor and laser diode characterization, time-of-flight applications, and many other applications.
The extra-high-voltage model AVR-8A-B provides up to 1000V out (to 50 ohm) with rise times of 50 ns and pulse widths variable from 200 ns to 200 us. PRF is variable from 1 Hz to 1 kHz. This model will provide peak output power of 20000 Watts and average outputs of 40 Watts (i.e. 0.2% maximum duty cycle). The standard output connector is SHV-type.
