Trek 40-15 User Manual
Trek Model 40/15
High-Voltage Power Amplifier
The Model 40/15 is a DC-stable, high-voltage power amplifier featuring an all solid-state design for high slew
rate, wide bandwidth, and low-noise operation. It is configured as noninverting with a fixed gain of 4000 V/V
and is protected against overvoltage and overcurrent conditions that may be generated by active loads or
by output short circuits to ground. Precision voltage and current monitors provide low-voltage
representations of the high-voltage output and load current for monitoring purposes or for use as
feedback signals in a closed-loop system.
The 4-quadrant, active output stage sinks or sources current to reactive or resistive loads throughout the
output voltage range. This is essential to achieve the accurate output response and high slew rates demanded
by reactive loads.

Features
High-Voltage On/Off
Local
Individual push-button switches
Remote
TTL compatible input. TTL high (or open) turns
off high-voltage output. TTL low turns on highvoltage output.
Dynamic Adjustment
Graduated 1-turn panel potentiometer is used
to optimize the AC response for various load
parameters.
Current Limit/Trip
Switch selectable for limit or trip. Graduated 1turn panel potentiometer is used to adjust limit
or trip level from 0 to ±15 mA.
Out of Regulation
Status Indicator and
Connnector
Illuminates and TTL low is provided when unit
fails to produce required HV output such as
during current limit.
Limit/Trip Status
Indicator and
Connector
An indicator will illuminate and a BNC will
provide a TTL low when the high-voltage output
is disabled due to the output current exceeding
the current trip level, the detection of a highvoltage power supply fault, removal of one of
the panels, or if the Model 40/15 is in an out of
regulation status for greater than 500 ms.
