Atec GP20-01-2 User Manual

High Voltage Pulse Generator

These very short rise time pulse generator use only solid state switches. The peak output
voltage can reach 5, 20 or 30 kV on 50 ohm. A BNC 50 ohm connector produces triggering
signals when the generator is internally triggered (internal mode). When the generator is in
external mode, the HV pulse is only delivered when a synchronisation signal is present at this
connector. In internal trigger mode, the repetition frequency is adjustable by a rotary knob up to
10 kHz, respectively 1 kHz. The output voltage is also adjustable by a rotary knob.
