Metrx introduce innovative 50 MHz Pulse Generators with single or dual outputs

17 February 2011

Models BK4033 and BK4034, from Metrix Electronics, are high performance, programmable pulse generators, delivering clean and accurate pulses for testing digital circuits and systems based on TTL, CMOS, or ECL logic families.

Model BK4034 functions as two units in one with its dual-channel outputs that can operate independently or in sync, saving bench space and equipment cost.

These new pulse generators, with their precise control over all pulse parameters, support a breadth of applications and environments requiring precision pulse streams, such as R&D, automatic test equipment (ATE), avionics, radar testing, switching power supply testing, and active component characterization. Industries that depend on pulse generators are wide-ranging; from aerospace and military to communications and industrial control.

Both the BK4033 and BK4034 operate from 0.1 Hz up to 50 MHz with a period accuracy of 0.01% and six-digit resolution for key parameters: period, width, and delay. Achieving this performance, which places them in the same category as more costly instruments, is an innovative feature, because customers are no longer faced with the trade-off between an AWG (arbitrary waveform generator) with limited pulse generation capabilities and dedicated, but costly pulse generators.

These instruments provide industry-standard flexibility in controlling pulse timing, level thresholds, and transition edges, as well as flexible trigger modes of continuous, triggered (internal, external, manual), gated burst, and external width. They store up to 99 test setups, are pulse width programmable from 10 ns to 10 s, and deliver an output signal of 10 Vpp into a 50 ohm load. Both generators offer closed case calibration, SCPI compatible programmability via GPIB or RS-232, and come with a standard three year warranty.
