The PVX-4110 pulse generator is optimized for high impedance capacitive loads and is well suited for driving extraction grids and deflection plates for electrostatic modulation of particle beams in time-of-flight mass spectrometers and accelerators, optical devices like Pockels cells and Q-switches, as well as certain low-current plasma applications. It is a direct-coupled, air-cooled solid-state half-bridge (totem pole) design, and has over-current detection and shut-down circuitry.

All control and protection logic circuitry, support power, energy storage and output stage circuitry are incorporated into the PVX-4110, which can be connected directly to the load. The unit features front panel indicator LEDs to monitor the status of the pulse generator, with front panel voltage and current monitors to provide a straightforward means to view the output voltage and waveforms in real-time.
