General Information

The SIM954 300 MHz Ampliﬁer, part of Stanford Research Systems'

Small Instrumentation Modules family, is a dual, inverting, precision

wideband ampliﬁer with up to 10 V output voltage and 1 A output

current.

The module can be used to drive many types of light laboratory loads

which exceed the capacity of typical instrument outputs without

imposing the limitations and cost of typical high power RF ampliﬁers.

The front-panel BNCs are all grounded to Earth ground, the power-

line-outlet ground, and the metal chassis of the module. No danger-

ous voltages are generated by the SIM954. However, if a dangerous

voltage is externally applied to the module, it may be present on all

BNC connectors, the chassis, the SIM interface connector, and may

cause injury or death.

The SIM954 is a single-wide module designed to be used inside the

SIM900 Mainframe. Do not turn on the power until the module is

completely inserted into the mainframe and locked in place.
