Timing & signal acquisition
TD104 Four-Channel Pulse Delay Generator
Four independently controlled pulse outputs synchronise optical experiments. Touchscreen, buttons and a rotary control provide local setup, with USB and Ethernet for remote control.
Best suited to
Timing lasers, gated detectors and repeatable transient measurements.
Selecting a configuration
Check the required output pulse width, repetition rate and input threshold. A 10 ps adjustment step describes the setting resolution; it does not mean 10 ps absolute timing accuracy.
Measurement & configuration
- Continuous, divider and burst modes.
- Save and recall experiment settings.
- Rising- or falling-edge external triggering.
