Model PB-5
NIM Precision Pulse Generator
MODEL PB-5 Summary
The Model PB-5 provides unprecedented performance in a precision
pulse generator. It includes a full-featured, highly flexible ramp
generator, parameter programmability and flash memory.
As a precision pulse generator, the PB-5 surpasses or equals all existing
designs in the important performance areas of resolution, linearity and
stability. The pulse repetition rates, which are variable over a broad
range, go up to 0.5 MHz. The higher rates are required when testing for
MCA and PHA linearity because of the high number of data points
required for a statistically valid test.
The built-in ramp generator allows you to control ramp duration, the
number of ramps and ramp limits. Now you can test the entire range of
your system or just a portion of that range. This ramp generator and
precision pulse generator combination allows you to tackle the most
demanding applications.
