MODEL 9354-1 UNIVERSAL TRANSIENT GENERATORfor susceptibility tests MIL-STD461C/D/E, DO-160C/D and other specificationsAPPLICATIONThe Model 9354-1 Universal TransientGenerator was especially designed for theperformance of a variety of pulse susceptibilitytests on subsystems and/or equipment, inaccordance with MIL-STD-461D and E, methodCS116; RTCA DO160D, section 22; MIL-STD-461C,methods CS10 and CS11.Through the use of many Solar accessories,including various reactive networks and couplingdevices, as well as other commercially availableitems such as loop antennas, parallel plates,and TEM cells, the generated output may bemodified and applied to other specifications.(Contact Solar customer service for details.)DESCRIPTIONModel 9354-1 Universal Transient Generatorprovides nine selectable waveforms, includingsix damped sinusoidal pulses (10 KHz, 100 KHz,1 MHz, 10 MHz, 30 MHz, and 100 MHz) andthree double exponential pulses (6.4 S, 70 Sand 500 S).Auto pulsing of the sinusoidal repetition rateis internally adjusted from 0.5 to 1.0 pulse persecond. A front panel-mounted push button canbe used to manually trigger single pulses. Thepeak amplitude of the selected output pulse isadjustable as a percentage of the charge voltage.The six damped sinusoidal waveforms weredesigned to meet the requirements ofMIL-STD-461D and E, method CS116, whenapplied in accordance with the test method ofMIL-STD-462D. Continuous tunable frequenciescan be obtained by the use of the optionalvariable frequency modules.These same waveforms are applicable to therequirements of MIL-STD-461C, methods CS10and CS11, when applied in accordance with thetest method of MIL-STD-462, Notice 5.The 1MHz and 10 MHz damped sinusoidalwaveforms have been extended to a peak opencircuit voltage of 3200 volts and a calculatedshort circuit current of 128 amperes to meetthe requirements of RTCA DO-160D, Section 22,Table 22-2, waveform 3.The three double exponential pulses weredesigned to meet the requirements of RTCADO-160D, Section 22, Tables 22-2 and 22-3.Table 1 lists the test level that can be achievedfrom the Model 9354-1.FEATURES■ Panel-mounted digital voltmeter.
