The Tektronix PG508 is a 50 MHz pulse generator plug-in for the TM500 system.


It features independent control of leading and trailing edge transition times.

Period, delay, duration, and transition time switches each feature a custom position where a user-supplied internal capacitor determines the timing.

Key Specifications

Transition time Range 5 ns to 500 μs in decade steps, separate  ×1 to ×100 variable controls for leading and trailing edge
