PCD-42P — HV pulse duration (2 ÷ 10 ns) is controlled by the built-in potentiometer. It is a new modification of PCD-41 driver — more performant, efficient and functional.

Generation of high voltage quasi-rectangular pulses with nanosecond rising and falling edges. HV output pulse duration is 2-10 ns and determined by the built-in potentiometer. The driver can be used for ultrafast optical beam modulation and deflection, control of laser regenerative amplifiers and pulse pickers.

Modifications by trigger control:
PCD-42
— HV pulse duration is determined by the duration of one external trigger pulse. 
PCD-42T — HV pulse duration is determined by the delay between rises of two external trigger pulses.
