BS 1-16 for biasing purposes
BS-Series: +/-5V to +/-14V
stahl-electronics offers 5 year warranty on voltage sources!
Our BS Series devices provide precise and stable DC voltages up to +/-14V for biasing purposes. Unlike DC power supplies, the outputs currents are limited to small values, and the outputs are optimized for high short and long term stability, low noise and low temperature drift. The device is housed in a standard 19-inch rack-mount case. User control of the device can be accomplished by PC control programs, utilizing a standard USB connection (USB 2.0 compatible). The programmed voltages and measured output currents are displayed on the front LCD display.

DC 1-10ref is a fixed voltage reference, providing an 1.000000V and an 10.000000 V output. Calibrated to a Josephson-Junction-based standard it serves a high precision seondary voltage standard and laboratory reference. Long term and temperature drifts are in the ppm-range and rival much more expensive reference solutions. Typical applications are calibrations of other devices (e.g. multimeters) and trap based precision experiments.  Manual / Extended Data Sheet (pdf, 6.97 MB)
HF-D 200A: 200Vpp RF drive for Paul Traps
Picture: HF-D 200A: 200Vpp RF drive for Paul Traps
- please click image to enlarge -
Purpose of the new RF drive HF-D 200A is the supply of AC-voltages to Paul Traps and other Quadrupoletype electrode setups for ion storage and manipulation. Unlike standard RF (radio- frequency) power amplifiers, the device is capable to handle capacitive loads, which are related to vacuum setups for ion trapping and storage. The device features a fast-turn-on/off capability to capture ions in flight. Other common RF drives often require a certain amount of time to build up the nominal output voltage since they are based on a resonant voltage transformation. In contrast the RF drive HF-D 200A is a broadband device which allows for instant turn-on and fast turn-off of the AC output voltage. The HF-D 200A is designed to deliver 200Vpp AC voltage of 600kHz to 1.5MHz frequency into a 100pF load on each output. The device is housed in a standard 19-inch rack-mount case.

Main Features:
  • RF drive for Paul Traps
  • 200Vpp into 100pF load
  • f = 600kHz to 1.5MHz
  • non resonant design, instant turn-on of output voltage
