SPECIFICATIONS
TRIG OUT
Denotes the start of a liming cycle.
Amplitude:
+2 V into 50 ohms. +4 V into 100 ohms.
Transition Times:
3 ns.
Pulse Width:
3 ns.
Trigger Delay:
20 ns typical (between TRIG IN and TRIG OUT).
MODES
With a module installed, four main operating modes are
available. The Mode selection is module dependent.
PULSE
Single Pulse:
Conventional pulse generator with rate, delay and width
controlled by the 6040 mainframe (see Figure 1-1).
Double Pulse:
A pair of identical pulses of the selected width with leading
edges separated by the selected delay.
External Drive:
Produces pulses corresponding in rate and duty cycle
to an external pulse train. Available with some
modules.
EXTERNAL MODULATION Converts digital and analog electrical signals into their
optical equivalent.
IMPULSE
Single Impulse:
A subnanosecond pulse of fixed width and amplitude,
with rate and delay controlled by the 6040 mainframe.
Double Impulse:
A pair of Identical impulses separated by the selected
delay.
CW
Provides a steady-state, adjustable power level.
