Technical Report from the year 2013 in the subject Electrotechnology, RWTH Aachen University (Physikalisches Institut IIIa), language: English, comment: Beschreibung einer Schaltung zur Erzeugung kurzer Impulse mit hoher Amplitude (3....100ns, ...84...120V). Die Schaltung arbeitet mit Standard CFA-Verstärkern und ist parametisierbar. , abstract: The traditional method to generate pulses in the range of some nanoseconds with high amplitudes, is the using of the avalanche-effect of transistors. However the problem with this method is the poor possibility for parameterizing. That was the trigger to look for a different way: under using of modern electronic components, a pulse generator, which is parameterizable, was developed. The parameters can be set by using a Windows- or Linux-PC. The pulse width can be adjusted in the range of 3....80 ns; the pulse amplitude in the range of 18...84 V and the pulse repetition rate in the range of 1 Hz to 50 kHz.
