Precisely synchronizes up to two Pockels cell drivers to the seed oscillator optical pulse train. Key parameters/features are as follows:
PP-CONTROL has an input (optical and electrical) and two outputs. Board’s main purpose is to produce output pulses precisely aligned relatively to the input pulses.
Input pulses are typically of 10MHz – 100MHz repetition rate. Output repetition rate is from single pulses to 1MHz.
The board was designed for pulse picking applications and regenerative amplifier control. The primary intented use is in the laboratory.
