Data Sheet 50 MHz Programmable Pulse Generators Models 4033 & 4034 Description Features & Benefits The 4033 and 4034 are high performance programmable pulse generators for testing digital systems and circuits based on TTL, CMOS, or ECL te chnologie s. Both instruments generate clean and accurate pulses at up to 6 digits resolution with a repetition rate up to 50 MHz, variable pulse widths from 10 ns to 10 s, and pulse delays from 0 ns to 10 s. Output levels are adjustable from -10 V to +10 V, with pulse amplitudes settable from 0.1 Vpp to 10 Vpp into a 50 ohm load. All parameters, modes, and functions are programmable via the front panel or remote control commands. Additionally, the pulse generators provide selectable complementary pulse and double pulse generation in continuous, triggered, gated, and counted burst modes. ■ Repetition rate of 0.1 Hz to 50 MHz ■ Flexible trigger modes: Continuous, Triggered parameters such as pulse width and transition (internal, external, manual), Gated Burst and time can be set independently Technical data subject to change © B&K Precision Corp. 2019 External Width ■ Pulse width programmable from 10 ns to 10 s ■ Transition times (rise and fall times) variable Dual-Channel Model 4034 ■ ■ Both channels offer full functionality and all Synchronize both channels with the push of a button ■ Saves cost and bench space from 6 ns to 100 ms ■ Programmable delay and double pulse ■ Predefined amplitude levels for ECL, TTL, and Applications CMOS signals ■ Automatic Test Equipment (ATE) Store up to 99 different test setups with auto ■ Avionics and radar testing retention of last power down setup ■ Switching power supply testing ■ 10 Vpp into 50 ohm output ■ Characterization of active components ■ Closed case calibration ■ Programmable via GPIB and RS-232 ■ SCPI compatible ■ Three year warranty ■ w w w.bk prec ision.c om 50 MHz Programmable Pulse Generators Models 4033 & 4034 Industry Leading Performance External Width Variable Transitions Straightforward User Interface In the external width pulse mode, pulse period and width are determined by an externally applied signal. The pulse generator then applies transition and level parameters to this signal in order to generate the pulse. A power supply designer for example could use this feature to shape the width and period of the output signal to drive the power supply’s FET transistors while remaining synchronized with its control circuits. For added flexibility, variable rise and fall times can be programmed from 6 ns to 100 ms. Various shapes of pulses can be obtained for applications where parameters such as linearity, switching times, or reflection times must be analyzed. Programmable rise and fall times could be used to measure operational amplifier slew rates and easily test thresholds of devices and circuits. These generators use a menu-driven front panel keypad and control knob to adjust all parameters. The bright, easy-to-read display shows all relevant parameters along with a graphical representation of the output pulse. If an entered parameter is not compatible with the existing setup status, the operator is informed by an error message. Users can conveniently select predefined amplitude levels for TTL, ECL, and CMOS signals, or choose a custom amplitude level for specialized applications.
