Avtech AVR-3-PW-C-P-TEK2

Model AVR-3-PW-C-P-TEK2 is a special order item which was custom designed for Tektronix, for the testing of current probes (such as the A6303 probe).

Specificationsare as follows:

Model designation: AVR-3-PW-C-P-TEK2
Description: The AVR-3-PW-C-TEK2 generates a 10 ns rise time voltage pulse (up to +250 Volts, 0.25 to 250 μs), which is accessible at the front panel OUT terminal. A shorting bar is connected between the OUT and IN terminals and the current probe is placed over the shorting bar. The IN terminal connects to ground via a 50 Ohm termination. A variable current of up to 5.0 Amperes is defined by the 250 Volt pulse and the 50-Ohm termination.

For other applications, the OUT terminal may be used to pulse a user-supplied 50 Ohm load, if desired. In this case,
the shorting bar and the “IN” terminal are not used.

• Output Amplitude: up to +250 Volts to RL ≥ 50 Ohms (ie 5 amperes peak current). Ten-turn locking dial control.
• Output pulse width: 250 ns to 250 us. 3-position range switch and ten-turn fine control.
• Output connectors: Two SMA connectors. Output Shorting bar connects between two connectors. Tektronix probe clips over this shorting bar.
• Rise, fall time (20%-80%): ≤ 10 ns
• Max duty cycle: 0.25 % (eg PRF max 25 Hz for PW=250 us).
• Overshoot at max output: ≤ 5%
• Droop (at max pulse width): ≤ 2%
• Chassis: 3.9” x 17” x 14.8”
