1. Introduction
The T560 is a small, enclosed digital delay/pulse generator which is intended for use in
embedded OEM applications. Given an internal or external trigger, it outputs four precisely-
timed pulses. The T560-1 is the standard, packaged version, usable directly in many OEM
applications and as the evaluation unit for custom versions.
Features of the T560-1 include:

Four TTL-level pulse outputs, each programmable for delay and width up to 10
seconds each, with 10-picosecond resolution.

DSP phaselock system combines crystal-clock delay accuracy with low jitter from
asynchronous external trigger.

Internal 10 MHz crystal oscillator timebase with external lock capability.

0-16 MHz DDS synthesizer for internal trigger rates.

Programmable-level trigger input with divide/burst features and trigger enable GATE
input.

Needs only +12 volt power from external universal power supply.

Extruded enclosure with removable mounting flange.

RS-232 serial interface.
The T560-2 version includes all the above features and adds a 10/100-mbps Ethernet
interface.
Customizable features include:

Alternate timing algorithms

Number of timing channels, 1 to 8

Packaged or bare-board

Alternate connector types and locations

OCXO timebase

Low impedance outputs, 4 volts min into 50 ohms.

Extended temperature ranges and conformal coating
