High Voltage Power Amplifier

  • Product No:20/20C
  • Manufacturer:Trek, Inc.

The Model 20/20C is a DC-stable, high-voltage power amplifier used in industrial and research applications. It features an all-solid-state design for high slew rate, wide bandwidth and low-noise operation.  The four-quadrant, active output stage sinks or sources current into reactive or resistive loads throughout the output voltage range.  This type of output is essential to achieve an accurate output response and high slew rate demanded by a variety of loads such as highly capacitive or reactive loads. It is configured as a non-inverting amplifier.

Features 

High-Voltage On/Off: Local Individual push-button switch   

           Remote (TTL    compatible input) TTL high (or open) turns off high-voltage output. TTL low turns on high-voltage output.

Dynamic Adjustment: Graduated 1-turn panel potentiometer is used to optimize the AC response for various load parameters

Current Limit/Trip: Switch selectable for either limit or trip. Graduated 1-turn panel potentiometer is used to adjust limit or trip level from 0 to ±20 mA 

Out of Regulation: Status Illuminates and a TTL low is provided when unit fails to produce required HV output such as during current limit or short circuit load conditions

Trip Statu: Illuminates and a TTL low is provided when the high-voltage output is disabled due to the output current exceeding the current trip level, the detection of a high-voltage supply fault or the removal of the top cover

Fault Status: A BNC provides a TTL low when the Model 20/20C is out of regulation for greater than 500 ms
