Fixed (ECL, ECL, TTL) Pulses
Pulse levels for
loading as shown:
ECL
-0.9V
Delay
Pulse occurrence can be delayed from less than 10 ns to
100 ms with respect to the sync pulse. Maximum duty
cycle is 70% for periods to 200 ns, decreasing to 30% for
20 ns periods.
Delay jitter is less than 0.1% plus 50 picoseconds.
ECL, ECL Transition Time: < 6 ns.
T T L
TTL Transition Time: < 10 ns.
Sync Pulse
Sync pulse is 0 to at least +1V from a
source.
Normal/Complement Control
Normal pulse or its complement is selected. The normally
quiescent and active levels are reversed in complement
format. This control affects all outputs except sync pulse.

Period jitter is less than 0.1% plus 50 picoseconds.
Width
Width range is from less than 10 ns to 100 ms in 7 over-
lapping ranges. Maximum duty cycle is 70% for periods to
200 ns, decreasing to 50% for 20 ns periods. Range switch
also has a square wave detent

Width jitter is less than 0.1% plus 50 picoseconds.
Sync pulse duty cycle is 50
of pulse period to 2
period, changing to 50
5% at 20 ns period except in
trigger and external width modes, in which case it is deter-
mined by the trigger signal.
Transition Time
For variable amplitude pulse only. Independently adjustable
leading and trailing edges from less than 7 ns (5 ns typical)
to 250 ms in 7 overlapping decade ranges (measured from
10 to 90% points). Verniers give 50:1 adjustment on all
ranges except 5 ns, which gives 25: 1.
Linearity: For transition greater than 10 ns
between
10 to 90% points on pulse.
