PSPL2600C Datasheet
The PSPL2600C Pulse Generators provide high amplitude positive or negative pulses with convenient front panel control. The output has fast edge rates, smooth transitions and minimal overshoot and ringing. Adjustable output levels are obtained using internal step attenuators, ensuring consistent signal shape at all settings. The outputs are designed for a 50 Ω impedance, but can safely drive any load from a short circuit to an open.

Model overview
The performance parameters listed here are typical values. Parameters are guaranteed at 23 °C (±3 °C) when maximum and/or minimum limits are given.
| Parameter | PSPL2600C | PSPL2600C TURBO |
|---|---|---|
| Amplitude range into 50 Ω 1 | 14 mV to 45 V, ≥40 V min. | 16 mV to 50 V, ≥45 V min. |
| Transition time, leading edge (10 – 90%) 1 | 400 ps, ≤500 ps max. | 250 ps, ≤350 ps max. |
| Transition time, trailing edge (10 – 90%) 1 | 1 ns, ≤1.8 ns max. | 800 ps, ≤1 ns max. |
| Topline overshoot | ≤2% | <4% |
| Attenuation | 0 to 70 dB, 1 dB steps | |
| Polarity | Positive or negative | |
| Baseline | 0 V | |
| Reflection coefficient | -30% during pulse, +50% after pulse. Improves with increasing attenuation. | |
| Source impedance (nominal) | 50 Ω | |
| Duration (FWHM) | < 1 ns to 100 ns, continuously adjustable | |
| Baseline precursor | < ±2% | |
| Topline perturbations | < ±2% | |
