The PVX-2506 pulse generator is designed using a bi-directional MOSFET output stage using DEI’s DE-Series Fast Power MOSFETs. This design allows for several benefits, including fast rise and fall times with minimal overshoot, undershoot and ringing as fast settling times. To protect the pulse generator from potential damage due to arcs and shorts in the load or interconnect cable, the PVX-2506 has overcurrent detection and shutdown circuitry.

The PVX-2506’s direct coupled, air cooled, solid state design is ideal for pulsed I-V (current-voltage) characterization of semiconductor devices at up to 50 Volts and 10 Amps. It offers equally fast pulse rise and fall times, low power dissipation, and minimal overshoot, undershoot, or ringing. The PVX-2506 is also well suited for other applications requiring high current, precision voltage pulses.
