TGP110 10MHz pulse generator with delay
An essential instrument
The generation of pulses for the stimulus and control of elec-
tronic systems is beyond the capability of all but the most so-
phisticated of function generators.
The architecture of a dedicated pulse generator enables it to
generate pulses of a set width regardless of the repetition rate
offeringdutycycleswhichcanextenddownto1in100million.
In addition to continuous operation, single or multiple pulses
can be generated in response to trigger or gating signals with
precisely defined timing relationships.
A dedicated pulse-waveform output amplifier provides flat top
pulses with fast rise and fall times at variable amplitude.
Variable delay
The TGP110 offers selectable delay between the sync output
andpulseoutput. Intriggeredmodethisalsosetsthedelaybe-
tween a trigger signal and the start of the pulse.
Wide pulse range
TheTGP110cangeneratepulsewidthsinthe range50ns to5s.
There are eight overlapping decade ranges with vernier control
within each range.
The period range is 100ns to 10s, equivalent to a repetition rate
range of 10MHz to 0.1Hz. Delay is independently adjustable
over the same range as pulse width.
A complement switch inverts the mark-space polarity.
Squarewave and double pulse
Insquaremode, squarewavesaregeneratedat afrequencyset
bytheperiodcontrols alone. Thisprovidesaconvenientmeans
of generating variable period edges where the pulse width is
unimportant, for example.

PERIOD, PULSE WIDTH, DELAY
Each parameter is variable within 8 overlapping decade ranges with a
vernier providing continuously variable control within each range.
PERIOD
Range: 100nsec to 10sec (10MHz to 0·1Hz).
Jitter: <0.1%.
PULSE WIDTH
Range: 50nsec to 5sec
Jitter: <0.1%.
DELAY
Range: 50nsec to 5sec
TRIGGER, GATE
RUN
Normal operational mode in which pulses are generated continuously at
0.1Hz to 10MHz.
TRIGGERED
DC to 10MHz pulse train in synchronism with external trigger pulses;
pulse width determined by pulse width controls. Trigger can be gener-
ated manually from front panel button.
GATED
0·1Hz to 10MHz pulse train, parameters set by period and pulse width
controls, starts synchronously with leading edge of gate input. Last pulse
is completed at the end of gating period. Gating signal can be generated
manually from front panel button.
PULSE MODES
NORMAL PULSE
One pulse is generated each period. The delay setting is ignored.
SQUAREWAVE
0·1Hz to 10MHz squarewave, frequency set by the period controls.
Pulse width and delay settings ignored.
Mark : Space ratio: 1:1 ±10%.
DOUBLE PULSE
A second pulse is generated after a delay set by the delay controls; the
delay is related to the leading edge of the first pulse.
DELAYED PULSE
A pulse is generated after a delay set by the delay controls; the delay is
related to rising edge of the trigger signal.
