Ametek 9650A Digital Delay/Pulse Generator

Overview

The Ametek 9650A is a four-channel digital delay/pulse generator designed for precision timing and signal generation applications. It produces four independently controlled output pulses (A, B, C, D) with adjustable width and delay, plus two difference outputs (A-B and C-D) for complex timing requirements and signal analysis.

Key Features

• Four independent output channels with adjustable pulse widths from 30 ns to 1 ms
• Programmable delay range of 0 to 100 ms with 10 ps resolution
• Reference timing pulse (T0) output generated approximately 35 ns after trigger for accurate timing reference
• Two difference outputs (A-B and C-D) for pulse interval measurements and complex timing patterns
• Internal clock or external trigger operation modes
• Scan mode for continuously increasing delay times
• Burst mode for generating output pulse bursts
• 5 × 7 dot matrix alphanumeric display for setup and programming
• Memory storage for up to 30 custom setup routines with recall capability
• Power shutdown memory retains current operating parameters
• Front panel control or optional computer interface for all parameters

Applications

• Digital circuit testing and characterization
• Timing analysis and measurement systems
• Pulse train generation for instrumentation
• Laboratory timing reference and synchronization
• Research and development of timing-sensitive systems
