Programmable Precision Pulse Generator End User Software Utility Oct 6, 2009

The most precise pulse generator on the market, the Model PB-5 NIM Pulser, is manufactured by Berkeley Nucleonics.

The Model PB-5 offers 5 ppb stability over temperature changes, allowing end users to test the linearity and stability of the most demanding circuits. The company has developed a new front end utility, called PB-5 WinControl, which expands the functionality and test options for the laboratory user. Control up to 8 pulse generators at the same time to synchronize outputs or test multiple systems.

Nuclear circuits such as Pulse Height Analyzers (PHA) and Multi-Channel Analyzers (MCA) require a stable pulse generator to simulate a wide range of test conditions. However, the linearity specification is limited by the fluctuations in the amplitude domain by the pulse generator. With the ability to store and recall numerous settings in a computer, the test process is expedited.
