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.
