RF drivers for modulators & Fixed Frequency Shifters
These drivers based on quartz oscillators, produce a fixed RF frequency signal.
Drivers can be provided at any frequency from 10 to 3 GHz. All models use crystal controlled oscillators. The RF output can be externally modulated (AM). The settling time varies from 2 ns to 100 ns depending on the fixed frequency and RF power. Usually the driver is coupled internally to a power amplifier; if the output power required is very high then the amplifier will be provided separately, offering RF powers up to 500 W CW.
PPK: Synchro drivers for pulse pickers
Plug and play synchronization…
PPKxx: These drivers have been designed in order to offer the highest possible performances in high speed Pulse Picking applications with repetition rates from 0.01 to 85MHz.
With their synchronization functionalities, they offer the best pulse to pulse stability. The provided intuitive GUI and PC software make them a simple tool to reach high level of performance.
RF drivers for Deflectors & Agile Frequency Shifters
These drivers are suitable for general purpose applications (raster scan, or random access...). The VCO can be modulated (amplitude) from an external signal.
The frequency is externally controlled by an analog signal. An external medium power amplifier will be required to generate the RF power levels required by the AO device.
Multi channels drivers for Polychromatic Modulators
The MPDSnC driver, based on DDS (Direct Digital Synthesizer), has been specially designed in order to exploit the best of the AOTFnC features. It offers up to 8 single channels mixed in one output.
Its compact design with single power supply, low RF emissions and ease of use will satisfy the most demanding of applications, where accuracy and flexibility are key requirements. Thanks to its complete digital design and integrated microcontroller setting up is fast, simple and repeatable. Access to and adjustments of functions is simple with either an Android tablet (with remote control adjustment) or through a RS232 serial link (with computer control) or USB communication.
All parameters are stored in an EEPROM and are automatically loaded after each switch on. Each line is externally controlled by a distinct modulation input signal which can be digital or analog. Additionally, all lines can be simultaneously controlled by a blanking signal which produces smooth effects without modifying the colorimetric balance. The combination of the modulation input and blanking signals provides the best extinction ratio performance (> 100 dB).
