(large scale)
The Model M5K-20 and M10K-20 are general purpose laboratory instruments which operate under dynamic load conditions. The maximum current of 1 amp permits operating with small load resistances or with high impedance loads which require a parallel "pull down" resistor to decrease fall time. This is a single switch pulser with pulse fall time a function of load RC. The instrument consists of a hard tube switch and multi-range solid state TTL driver. The pulser generates clean negative (positive optional) pulses into dynamic loads.
