The Tektronix PG509 is a 350 ps rise-time pulse generator plug-in for the TM500 system.

It produces a fixed-amplitude rectangular positive pulse waveform.

The PG509 is intended for use as a stimulus for making measurements. It uses an avalanche transistor and charge line to generate the fast-rising output pulse.

Key Specifications

Amplitude 25 V (specified into 50 Ω), adjustable ±5%
Rise time 350 ±50 ps
Pulse width 44 ±2 ns
Repetition rate 50 kHz ±10%
Pretrigger out 220 mV ±20% into 50 Ω, 115 ns ±25% before output
Inputs
  • Amplitude Control, front-panel SMB connector / rear connector A15; current 0 to −2 mA; 1 mA nominal ±0.5 mA for ±5%; at less than −0.15 mA, the front-panel Variable Amplitude adjustment takes effect
  • Pulse Control, front-panel SMB connector / rear connector B15; TTL low level inhibits output
