Jump to: Switch Types Isolation Power Supply Switch Control

#Switch Types

Selectable for each switch channel separately

Standard

Dual-level switch
  • Output Out switches between two voltage levels Vneg and Vpos or has a high impedance (also called Hi-Z or Tristate) when the switch is deactivated
  • Controlled by one digital signal, polarity selectable
  • Vneg ≤ Vout ≤ Vpos must be fulfilled at all times (even when the switch is deactivated)

Option T (Trilevel)

Three-level switch
  • Output Out switches between three voltage levels Vneg, Vmid, and Vpos or has a high impedance (also called Hi-Z or Tristate) when the switch is deactivated
  • Controlled by two digital signals, polarities and control logic selectable
  • Vneg ≤ Vout ≤ Vpos and Vneg ≤ Vmid ≤ Vpos must be fulfilled at all times (even when the switch is deactivated)
  • For applications such as injection, compression and ejection of ions

#Isolation

Selectable for each switch channel separately

Standard

  • Maximum isolation voltage: 2.1 kV
  • Maximum burst frequency: > 10 MHz
  • Minimum pulse duration: < 50 ns
  • Propagation delay: 65 ns
  • Jitter: < 1 ns

Option H (HV Isolation)

High-voltage isolation
  • Maximum isolation voltage: 3 kV (5 kV or more upon request)
  • Maximum burst frequency: 2 MHz
  • Propagation delay: 120 ns

#Power Supply

Modification of entire device

Standard

  • Nominal operating frequency of the auxiliary switching regulators: 125 kHz
  • Optional dithering control

Option N (Low Noise)

Power supply optimized for low noise level at the switch output
  • Shielded transformers
  • Nominal operating frequency of the auxiliary switching regulators: about 28 kHz
  • Low high-frequency noise due to resonant converters
  • Optional dithering control

#Switch Control

Selectable for each switch channel separately

Standard

Switch input: BNC or LEMO socket on the front panel

Option D (Rear Control)

Switch control via connector on the rear panel
Switch inputs (selectable via a slide switch):
  • BNC/LEMO socket on the front panel
  • Control signal at the rear connector

Option M (Monitoring)

Monitoring output on the front panel
  • Dual-level switches:
    • Only available as Option RM: Rear control (option R) + monitoring
    • Switch input on the front panel can be used as a monitoring output when the switch is controlled via the signal from the rear connector (selectable via a slide switch)
  • Three-level switches (option T):
    • Additional socket on the front panel for monitoring output
