capacitive loads may damage the amplifier.
Configuration
Options
The A10160
’s standard configuration enables a maximum output
voltage of 34Vp-p into 50 ohms and a gain of x10. Custom gain of
x15 or x20 can be ordered.
WARNING
This manual has no schematics and no
instructions how to modify the amplifier for other
configurations as any configuration change,
without full engineering supervision, may affect
the performance of the amplifier. All options must
be specified at the time of your purchase.
Reconfiguration of fielded instruments can be
done by qualified and trained persons only.
Connectors
The A10160 has two front panel SMA input connectors, normal and
complement, which match the Tabor’s WX series and WX8351/2
outputs locations. The A10160 normal input should be connected to
the normal output of the signal source. The complement input
should be connected to the complement output of the signal source
as it is terminated to 50 ohms, in order to prevent undesired
aberrations from the differential signal source. However, if the
signal source does not have a differential output the A10160
complement output does not have to be connected. At the rear
panel, the A10160 has one BNC output connector, which outputs
the amplified signals and the power DIN-5 input connector, which is
fed from a factory supplied power supply.
Power Supply
The A10160 comes with a factory supplied power supply, which
accepts any voltage from 100 to 240Vac and there is no need to
select the voltage range between different countries. To avoid
potentially hazardous situations, always connect the center pin of
the power supply plug to mains ground using the line cord that is
supplied with the instrument.
Specifications
The specifications listed in this guide represent the performance
standards or limits against which the A10160 is tested.
Specifications apply under the following conditions: output
terminated into 50 ohms impedance, after 30 minutes of warm up
time, and within a temperature range of 20
C to 30
C.
Specifications outside of the temperature range are degraded by
0.1% per
C.
