High Voltage Pulse Generators

SDS high voltage pulse generators are based upon the use of field-effect transistor technology. They have the remarkable feature of being inserted into lightweight and reduced obstruction cases.

GIPO generators can produce pulses that can reach 5.5kV with a rise time of a few nanoseconds, generally 2.5ns. Pulse length is adjustable and can go as low as 200ns. Longer pulses to charge capacitive loads are adjustable and can reach approximately 30µs. The GIPO is available either in a block configuration or as a stand-alone unit. This product is encapsulated in a specific resin.

GIPO Series

High voltage pulse generator (block configuration). Patented – Under license from the French “Commissariat à l'Energie Atomique” (C.E.A.)
 
High voltage pulse generators can be used in several applications within the optical and photonics domains where it is necessary to switch high voltage into a load during a short time.

The GIPO can be used with:

  • Pockel Cells
  • Multi Channels Plates
  • Intensified CCDs
  • Laser Diodes
  • Flash Lamps

Please note that in its actual development, the GIPO is able to handle the above cited applications provided the devices it is used with match its specifications.  For the technical performances of the GIPO, please refer to the datasheet.
