MODEL P730 UNIVERSAL
FANOUT BUFFER
V375 VME arb features
  • Electrical logic input thresholds adjustable from -4V to +4VInput-to-output bank assignment is routable without moving cabling

  • Programmable logic out bank voltages adjustable from -3.6V to +5V, 50 ? source

  • 850nm, 1310nm or 1550nm fiberoptic input options available with ST or FC connectors and calibrated 1V/mW analog front panel monitor output

  • Stable, ultra-low jitter, sub 350ps output edge transition times
The Model P730 is a high-speed, multipurpose digital fanout buffer housed in an anodized aluminum enclosure, which may be surface-mounted for OEM use or placed on a bench top for lab use.

The P730 features two input banks that are user-routable to two output banks, each consisting of four parallel buffered electrical outputs. Input and output levels are independently adjustable enabling compatibility with CMOS, TTL, CMOS, LVDS, NECL, PECL, NIM and sine wave systems. Fiberoptic inputs are optionally available, expanding electrical signal translation to include optical-to-electrical conversion, galvanic isolation and 1244.16 Mb/s SONET OC-24 compatibility. A fully DC-coupled signal path maintains signal integrity to greater than 1GHz pulse repetition rates.

The P730 is compatible with Highland Technology J-series photonic, T-series timing, P-series benchtop and V-series VME products.
