Getting started
Pulse Output connector
The pulse generators use SMA connector for the pulse output. The PSPL2600C
provides a 14 mV to 45 V output; the PSPL2600C-TURBO provides a 16 mv to
50 V output. The instruments are designed to work into a 50
Ω
load or an open
circuit or short circuit.
CAUTION.
Applying an external voltage to the SMA Pulse output connector can
damage the pulse generator. To avoid damaging the pulse generator use a DC
block such as the PSPL5500A. For applications requiring a DC baseline offset
voltage to be added to the pulse generator, use a bias tee such as the PSPL5575A.
The bias tee contains DC blocking capacitors.
Rear panel controls and connectors
The rear panel of the instrument is shown in the following

Connect the appropriate power cord here.
Fuse holder.
Refer to the fuse information in the AC Mains Voltage Selector
switch settings table. (See Table 1.)
Line voltage selector switches.
Switch settings determine the correct voltage,
power, and frequency settings for your instrument. (See Table 1.)
