9000 Series: Wideband Signal Amplifiers for Fast Test Signals

The Tabor 9000 Series amplifies signals from function, arbitrary waveform, and pulse generators when their output voltage or current is insufficient for the DUT. Models 9160, 9250, and 9260 cover different requirements for bandwidth, voltage, current, and channel count. This allows existing signal sources to be extended specifically for component testing, R&D, and ATE systems.

More Voltage or Current for Fast Test Signals

For fast signal transitions, the 9160 provides bandwidth up to 45 MHz, 34 Vp-p into 50 Ω, and up to 1 A output current. The 9250 focuses on higher output voltages and reaches up to 40 Vp-p into high-impedance loads. The 9260 combines two channels with up to 34 Vp-p into 50 Ω and up to 1 A. The 9250 and 9260 can amplify two independent single-ended signals or split one input into two phase-opposed outputs. This supports differential signals without having to synchronize two separate signal sources. Configurable impedances also simplify adaptation to different measurement setups.

Select the Model According to Load and Signal Requirements

For 50 Ω loads with high current demand, the 9160 and 9260 are suitable options. The 9250 is designed for higher output voltages into high-impedance loads. Key selection criteria are therefore load impedance, required output amplitude, bandwidth, and channel count. This makes it possible to select the right amplifier stage for AWG signal amplification, component characterization, or fast stimulus signals.

Alternative Products:
If you require significantly higher output voltages and a lower bandwidth is sufficient, the Tabor 9100/9200 Series is the suitable alternative. These high-voltage signal amplifiers provide up to 400 Vp-p for single- or dual-channel applications.
