Module FormatNotes Ultra High Speed Pulse Generator AVI-V $9998 $6998 $3998 Base model. Units with the -B suffix include the IEEE-488.2 GPIB and RS-232 computer control feature. Internet control (Telnet and Web) -TNT $676 * * Option. Adds a rear-panel Ethernet connector, providing Telnet or Web-based remote control from a network. Recommended accessory kit (attenuators and terminators) -AK1 $531 $531 $531 Option. Consists of three SMA, 18 GHz, 2 Watt attenuators (10, 20 & 30 dB) for use on the output, and two 50 Ohm, 1 GHz, 1 Watt feed-through terminators (one SMA, one BNC) for use on external trigger inputs. Attenuators not for use at amplitudes above 50V. Electronic amplitude control (analog) -EA $590 $590 $590 Option. Electronic PW control (analog) -EW * $590 $590 Option. Monitor output -M $471 $471 * Option. The monitor output provides an attenuated replica of the voltage on the main output, for largely non-invasive waveform measurements. Offset -OS $471 $471 $471 Option. Rack Mount Kit -R5 $233 $233 * Option. For 17-inch-wide models only. Check datasheet for instrument dimensions. (All -B units are 17 inches). Dual polarity -PN $3498 * * Option. For -B units Dual polarity (positive mainframe output) -P-PN * $1198 * Option. For -C units Dual polarity (negative mainframe output) -N-PN * $1198 * Option. For -C units Positive output polarity -P 0 0 0 A polarity must be specified. Negative output polarity -N 0 0 0 A polarity must be specified. * Not available in this format.

Prices - International
Customers in Austria, China, France, Germany, India, Japan, Korea, Switzerland, Taiwan and Turkey should contact their local representative for pricing. International prices will be somewhat higher than the USA/Canada pricing shown above, depending on local documentation requirements, customs and shipping procedures, and other regulatory issues (for example, the European WEEE directive).
Customers in other countries should contact our Canadian headquarters directly for pricing. Avtech can ship internationally by FedEx (preferred), UPS, DHL, or Bax Global.

To form a valid model number:
AVI-V
+ (select one format: -B, -C, or leave blank for module format)
+ (select one polarity: -P, -N, -PN, -P-PN, -N-PN)
+ (possible options: -TNT, -AK1, -EA, -EW, -M, -OS, -R5)Some options may not be available with all formats (see the table above), and some combinations of options may not be available together. See the data sheet for details.
Our online Model Number Checker tool can be used to validate model numbers.
Please note that the -EW, -EO, and -ED options are not normally recommended for -B units, because they provide remote analog control of the related parameter. The -B units include remote digital control as a standard feature, through the IEEE-488.2 GPIB and RS-232 interfaces.

Export Controls
Some or all of the models in the AVI-V product family have rise times of 500 ps or less, and amplitudes of 6V or more. Due to government policy and international treaty obligations, these models are not available for sale to India, Pakistan, and other nations that are not signatories of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.
