INTRODUCTION
The AVRF-7A-B is a high performance, GPIB and RS 3 -equipped instrument capable
of generating 0 to 750V at repetition rates up to 5 kHz into loads of 50Ω.
For positive amplitudes, the pulse width is variable from 150 ns to 10 us, and the rise
and fall times ( 0% - 80%) are 5 ns or less.
Units with the -N or -PN options can generate negative output amplitudes. For negative
amplitudes, the pulse width is variable from 150 ns to 5 us, and the rise and fall times
( 0% - 80%) are 8 ns or less.
The duty cycle may be as high as 0.1%.
A 50 Ohm load impedance is required. Open circuits, short circuits, and other non-
50Ω loads may damage the instrument.
The AVRF-7A-B includes an internal trigger source, but it can also be triggered or gated
by an external source. The output pulse width can be set to follow an input trigger pulse
width. A front-panel pushbutton can also be used to trigger the instrument.
The AVRF-7A-B features front panel keyboard and adjust knob control of the output
pulse parameters along with a four line by 40-character backlit LCD display of the
output amplitude, pulse width, pulse repetition frequency, and delay. The instrument
includes memory to store up to four complete instrument setups. The operator may use
the front panel or the computer interface to store a complete “snapshot” of all key
instrument settings, and recall this setup at a later time.
The instrument is protected against some overload conditions by an automatic control
circuit. An internal power supply monitor removes the power to the output stage for five
seconds if an average power overload exists. After that time, the unit operates normally
for one second, and if the overload condition persists, the power is cut again. This cycle
repeats until the overload is removed.
This instrument is intended for use in research, development, test and calibration
laboratories by qualified personnel.

HIGH-VOLTAGE PRECAUTIONS
CA TION: This instrument provides output voltages as high as 750 Volts under
normal operating conditions, and generates up to 900V internally, so extreme caution
must be employed when using this instrument. The instrument should only be used by
individuals who are thoroughly skilled in high voltage laboratory techniques. The
following precautions should always be observed:
1. Keep exposed high-voltage wiring to an absolute minimum.
. Wherever possible, use shielded connectors and cabling.
3. Connect and disconnect loads and cables only when the instrument is turned off.
4. Keep in mind that all cables, connectors, oscilloscope probes, and loads must
have an appropriate voltage rating.
Do not attempt any repairs on the instrument, beyond the fuse replacement procedures
described in this manual. Contact Avtech technical support (see page for contact
information) if the instrument requires servicing.

1) -B suffix indicates IEEE-488. GPIB and RS- 3 control of amplitude, pulse width, PRF and delay. (See http://www.avtechpulse.com/gpib).
) For operation at amplitudes of less than 0% of full-scale, best results will be obtained by setting the amplitude near full-scale and using external attenuators on the output.
3) Add the suffix -NC, -HN, -MHV, or -SHV to the model number to replace the standard BNC output connector with N, HN, MHV, or SHV connectors, respectively.

REGULATORY NOTES
FCC PART 18
This device complies with part 18 of the FCC rules for non-consumer industrial,
scientific and medical (ISM) equipment.
This instrument is enclosed in a rugged metal chassis and uses a filtered power entry
module (where applicable). The main output signal is provided on a shielded connector
that is intended to be used with shielded coaxial cabling and a shielded load. Under
these conditions, the interference potential of this instrument is low.
If interference is observed, check that appropriate well-shielded cabling is used on the
output connectors. Contact Avtech (info@avtechpulse.com) for advice if you are unsure
of the most appropriate cabling. Also, check that your load is adequately shielded. It
may be necessary to enclose the load in a metal enclosure.
If any of the connectors on the instrument are unused, they should be covered with
shielded metal “dust caps” to reduce the interference potential.
This instrument does not normally require regular maintenance to minimize interference
potential. However, if loose hardware or connectors are noted, they should be
tightened. Contact Avtech (info@avtechpulse.com) if you require assistance.
