Two amplifiers can be connected in bridge-mode to provide up to +/-200V or +400V. The PX200 has a high output current up to 13 Amps peak and is well suited to precision applications that require high power and frequency.
The output voltage range is specified when ordering. The standard voltage ranges and associated current limits are listed below. Since the PX200 has front panel controls for reducing the positive and negative output voltage range, choose a range equal to or slightly greater than required.
5 Power Bandwidth Launch Online Power Bandwidth Calculator The online power bandwidth calculator estimates the highest achievable frequency with a capacitive load impedance. The calculator considers the current limit, slew-rate, output impedance, and small- signal bandwidth. PX200 V5 Manual 13/05/2022...

Table 2. Maximum frequency (Hz) versus load capacitance and output voltage span In the above table, the frequencies limited by slew-rate are marked with an asterisk. The slew-rate is approximately 35 V/uS which implies a maximum frequency of 35 × 10 PX200 V5 Manual 13/05/2022...
The maximum pulse duration versus peak current is described in Figure 1. The pulse current option can be ordered by appending the order code with “-PULSE”, e.g. “PX200-P200-PULSE”. Figure 1. Maximum pulse duration versus peak current for each voltage span...

For example, a PX200-N100-P100 (with a +/-100V output range) will output +100V and -100V on HV+ and HV- respectively. For amplifier configurations where the HV- output is zero (e.g.
