It is a new modification of PCD-41 driver — more performant, efficient and functional.
Generation of high voltage quasi-rectangular pulses with nanosecond rising and falling edges. HV output duration is determined by trigger pulse duration. The driver can be used for ultrafast optical beam modulation and deflection, control of laser regenerative amplifiers and pulse pickers.
PCD-42 — HV pulse duration is determined by the duration of one external trigger pulse.
PCD-42T — HV pulse duration is determined by the delay between rises of two external trigger pulses.
PCD-42P — HV pulse duration (2 ÷ 10 ns) is controlled by the built-in potentiometer.
