The AVR-G series is specifically designed for gating and beam blanking applications requiring amplitudes up to+/- 250 Volts, pulse widths from 100 ns to 0.5 sec and duty cycles as high as 50%. This series is designed to drive high impedance loads such as microchannel plates, grids and beam deflection plates. This series is also suitable for driving certain high-impedance electrooptic modulators (EOMs). Typical output waveforms provided by each of the five standard models in this series are shown on this page. It should be noted that the versatile AVR-G technology can be readily adapted to provide a wide variety of other waveforms (e.g., higher voltages, dual outputs, alternating polarity, etc). Contact Avtech if your particular requirement is not covered by the five standard models.
Model AVR-G3-B provides a bipolar waveform - each trigger event generates a positive output pulse followed by a negative pulse. The amplitudes and pulse widths for the two pulses are independently variable (from 0 to 220 Volts and 1 us to 10 ms respectively). The pulse separation (from the trailing positive edge to the leading negative edge) is variable from 1 us to 10 ms.
