Colby Instruments, Inc. Programmable Delay Line HPDL-100A

Programmable delay at an amazing value! The new HPDL-100A utilizes precision cut semi-rigid coaxial cable and Aerospace grade microwave relays to offer delay from 0 to 10.23 ns with a step precision to 10 ps. Input signal bandwidth is from DC to 12.5 GHz. One programmable instrument with large delay range and high precision accuracy provides performance flexibility to meet your application requirements. For a typical wireless application at 2.5 GHz, the HPDL-100A can phase shift 0â° to 9000â° of rotation with a step precision to 9â°. Instrument control is easy using the MT-100A Microterminal LCD and numeric keypad to manually specify desired delay. Remote interfaces supported include GPIB(IEEE488.2), Ethernet TCP/IP, and RS-232 Serial ports. Colby Instruments Programmable Delay Line Series instruments offer higher precision, more accuracy, and greater repeatability than manual phase shifters all in one easy to setup and use instrument.
