With this instrument you can control and vary puise répétition rate, puise width, puise delay and peak light power level. The Model 6010 is both a light puise generator and a stabilized (steady state) light source. It can opéra te in both puise and CW modes for applications in digital, analog, time or amplitude domain testing. It offers continuously variable puise rate, puise width, puise delay and power level control. A double puise mode, which provides two light puises whose spacing is variable, is useful for puise pair resolution, System response, and gênerai purpose timing tests. In the external trigger mode, the output light puise follows the rate of an incoming data train. In the external drive mode, the light puise follows both the rate and width of an incoming waveform. The Model 6010's light generating circuits consist of an LED source, LED driver and an optical feedback loop. In the stabilized mode, the output light level is sampled and sensed by the optical feedback loop and phototdiode. Any fluctuations of light power due to température or duty cycle effects are sensed by the photodiode circuits and cor-rected by the LED driver circuitry. In the high speed mode, the stabilizing circuitry is removed from the control loop. A locking ten-turn potentiometer allows the user to linearly control and set light power over a broad range. Power level and versatile timing controls enable the user to quickly isolate problems as well as test and calibrate optical Systems and their components. © BNC - Tel: 415/453-9955 Fax: 415/453-9956 www.berkeleynucleonics.com
