High Frequency Clock Divider Board
Alliance Support Partners, Inc.
Clock Divider is designed to divide high frequency signals, up to 2.5GHz, from 4 to 256 times. It will accept single ended (Unbalanced) or differential (Balanced) signals with amplitudes as little as 100mV rms. The clock division is controlled by 4 shunt jumpers. The circuit can be disabled and the divide by counter reset with 2 control signals. The on board regulator will accept voltages from 4.85 to 15.0V. The output is capable of driving 700mV Peak to Peak into 50 Ohms.

Shunts
WSM alternating current measuring resistors have compared with traditional direct current shunt resistors with coaxial voltage tap significantly better high-frequency transmission characteristics. This resulted from a production engineering very complicated structural design of the active part.ISM pulse current measuring resistors allow the metrological recording of the time curve fast current changes large amplitude in the nanosecond range. The ISM are designed for the pulse current measurement with broadband oscilloscopes.

Repeated Charge Discharge Test Set
The IS 13341 : 1992 has laid down the requirements for Ageing Test, Self-Healing Test and Destruction Test on Shunt Capacitors of the self healing type for AC Power Systems. The Ageing Test is to be performed at a specified voltage of 1.25 times the rated voltage for 750 hours. The test is to be followed with a repeated discharge cycle test which involves charging of the capacitor to a DC voltage and discharge of the same through an Inductance. Sivananda Electronics has developed this equipment for the benefit of capacitor manufacturers, for the first time in India.

Isolation Amplifiers
Isolation Amplifiers provide power supply designers with a higher performing, single chip alternative to isolation techniques based on optocouplers and shunt regulators. Analog Devices ADuM3190 and ADuM4190 isolated error amplifiers have a 400 kHz bandwidth, with 0.5% typical initial accuracy at 25°C and 1% total accuracy over the extended temperature range of –40˚C to +125˚C. This provides manufacturers of ac-to-dc and dc-to-dc power supplies with a significant upgrade in speed and operating temperature range, as well as a 5× improvement in transient response.

Series Voltage References
Analog Devices offers a broad line of series voltage references with low dropout, low power, and excellent line regulation. These devices are voltage references that are functionally similar to a three-terminal regulator. Some series voltage references are designed to also operate in shunt mode by biasing the output pin and leaving the input pin open circuit. Series mode voltage references have the advantage that they draw only load and quiescent current from the input supply.
