Model RX-400
The model RX-400 is a low noise, wideband ultrasonic receiver. Specifically designed to keep the best signal to noise ratio with all the gain settings, the model RX-400 can be connected to any ultrasonic transducer in the range 0.5 to 15MHz. The RX-400 hosts two user settable gated alarms to perform automated testing.

Specifications:

  • Input impedance: 200 Ohm ( with input voltages < ± 0.3V, for higher voltages the protection clips the signal ).
  • Max. input power: the maximum average power which the receiver input can dissipate is 1W.
  • Rectification: positive, negative, positive+negative and RF.
  • Voltage gain: 0 to 80dB in 0.5dB steps ( no load, -6dB if RL=50 Ohm ).
  • Bandwidth: 15MHz ( -3dB ).
  • Noise: ( referred to the input ) typically 15µV RMS ( BW = 15MHz ).
  • Low pass filter: 2MHz, 4MHz, 10MHz, full.
  • Maximum output voltage: <±1.0Vpk min ( no load, ±1.0Vpk RL = 50 Ohm ).
  • Output impedance: 50 Ohm.
  • Alarm: two gates programmable in over threshold or under threshold; coincidence or anti-coincidence.
  • Gates delay: 125ns to 512ns in 125ns steps.
  • Gates width: 125ns to 128ns in 125ns steps.
