Dual Channel Tri-Level Driver Card
40465
Two channels of 10MHz drivers, that can be operated as standard Two-Level Drivers or operated as two channels of Tri-Level Drivers. In the Two-Level mode, the input to each driver channel requires one channel of TTL level timing. Tri-and four level modes require a second clock input. In the Tri-Level Mode, the output from lowest rail to high rail can be 18.5V. Like the 40460 the rise and fall time as well as the high and low voltage levels of each channel is programmable.

Dual Channel Clock Driver Card
PI-41400
The PI-41400 is a dual channel Clock Driver card capable of operating up to 190 MHz into a 50-ohm load and up to 80 MHz at an amplitude of 8 volts into a 1-megohm load. Into a high impedance load the output voltage range is from a –3 volts to 8 volts with the output pulse amplitude ranging from 0.5 V to 9 V. When driving a 50 load the voltage range is –1.5 volts to 4.5 volts with the output pulse amplitude ranging from 0.25 V to 4.5 V. The rise and fall times of the output pulse are variable from 1.2 ns to 9 ns into a 50-ohm load and <5 ns to 9 ns into a HiZ load. The output pulse amplitude and the load being driven determine the range of variability. The driver output can be set for tri-state operation and the output polarity can be set for ‘Normal’ or ‘Inverted’ operation through software.

Instrument Mainframe
PI-11006
The PI-11006 Instrument Chassis was designed to accommodate the power and noise requirements of some of Pulse Instruments analog instrument cards. These instrument cards, such as the PI-41401, PI-41702 and others supply signal outputs that require more current from the -12 V supply than available in a standard chassis. Therefore this chassis has a larger -12 V power supply that provides 2.5 Amps.

Dual Channel Driver Card
40461
Two channels of 8 to 10 MHz drivers (25 V amplitude). The output voltage range is ±25V, with independent high and low voltage settings. The inputs to the Card are optically isolated. The card also contains voltage and current sense capability, which allows muxing of the current or voltage output measurements from all the Driver Channels in the system to a single DVM. The card allows independent programming of the rise and fall time of each channel as low as one nanosecond increments.

Graphical Waveform Editor and Instrument
PI-PAT
Much more than just a visualization tool, PI-PAT is a full-fledged graphical waveform editor that allows you to spend more time testing and less time programming. PI-PAT doesn't require any programming experience or complicated syntax. Just draw or type patterns directly into the pattern window. Move a clock edge by dragging it. Adjust integration times by entering a single number. Change the output to your DUT by clicking the Update button. You'll never have to wrangle DSP or FPGA code with PI-PAT.

65 MHz Single Channel Driver Card
40490
One channel, 65 MHz driver with an output voltage capability of ±20V. There are two inputs--a standard input with up 65 MHz capability and an optically isolated input with 20 MHz capability. Either input can be selected.

Four Channel Low-Noise DC Bias Card
PI-41702
The PI-41702 is a four channel bipolar DC Bias supply that can provide an output current up to 100 mA per channel. The output voltage ranges from –8 V to +8 V, and this card has special filter circuitry to reduce the output noise for those applications that require a low noise bias output. Additionally there is a ‘D’ type connector that allows the introduction of laboratory type supplies to reduce the noise further. To change from using the internal power supplies to external power supplies requires repositioning jumpers. The PI-41702 also has voltage and current sense for remote measurement of the voltage and current levels.
