Tabor 9260 – 34Vp-p Differential / Dual Channel Signal Amplifier

• 2 channels with single-ended outputs; 1 with differential output
• 45MHz bandwidth
• High amplitude to 34Vp-p into 50Ω
• High output current drive to 1A
• Fast transition time of <10ns

The 9260 is a bench-top, 2U, half 19” rack size, fully metal case, dual channel DC coupled wideband amplifier designed for high frequency, high current, signal amplification. With a high bandwidth of 45MHz, 34Vp-p into 50 ohms and up to 10W output power, the 9260A is the ideal complimentary amplifier to any signal source that needs a supporting power boost for demanding applications.

High Current High Power

With a peak output current of 1A the 9260A enables a continuous power output of up to 10W, making it ideal for various pulse applications.

Instrument Configuration

The 9260A can be configured to be used as two, single-ended independent channels, or as a one input with two differential outputs. The 9260A’s standard configuration enables a maximum output voltage of 34Vp-p into 50 ohms with a gain of x10. Other custom gain, such as x15 can be ordered at the time of the purchase, enabling clients’ even wider variety of choices to solve their application.

Output Characteristics

The outputs are located on the front panel. There are two outputs, one for each channel. When the 9260A is configured as two separate amplifiers, the outputs generate amplified signals within the range of 34Vp-p into matching load impedance at approximately 45MHz bandwidth.

Input Characteristics

The inputs to the amplifiers can be configured to match different source impedances such as 50Ω, 75Ω, or 1MΩ. There are three inputs for each channel: 1. Main input. This input is located on the front panel and is normally used for signal inputs. 2. Auxiliary input. This input is located on the rear panel and can be used as a summing input. 3. DC Offset input. This input is also located on the rear panel and can be used for offsetting the signal level within the specified output level window.

Auxiliaries

The 9260A has two additional inputs for each channel allowing summation of two signals and providing an external control of DC level offset. These inputs are accessible from the rear panel only.

Target Applications

While target applications include piezo-electronics, transducer characterization, MEMS, general electronics and scientific applications, the new 9260A is an ideal solution for virtually any wide bandwidth application that requires high voltage and high current amplification.
