High performance 8ch Pulse and Frequency distribution amplifier
This 1U 19" rack project houses two boards, one 8-channel logic-pulse distribution amplifier (pda) board (e.g. for 1 pulse-per-second signals) and one 8-channel frequency distribution (fda) amplifier for typically 5 or 10 MHz sine-wave signal.
Frequency Distribution Amplifier
- 2-sided PCB, 170 mm x 70 mm
- Input stage LMH6702
- Output stages LMH6609
Pulse Distribution Amplifier
- 2-sided PCB, 170 mm x 70 mm
Enclosure and powersupply
Two boards fit side-by-side an a 1U high 19" rack enclosure.
The distance between connectors on the front panel is 16 mm, leaving
enough room for BNC connectors and cables.
