The Hybrid Systems HS 2020 is a precision hybrid amplifier designed for high-speed, low-offset performance. It features digitally programmable gains ranging from 1 to 128 via binary TTL inputs, providing a dynamic range of 19 bits. The device utilizes the precision JFET OP-15 amplifier and a laser-trimmed stable nichrome thin-film resistor network to achieve excellent performance over a wide temperature range.
| Gain Range | 1 to 128 |
|---|---|
| Nonlinearity | 0.002% |
| Gain Accuracy | 0.002% |
| Full Power Bandwidth | 100 kHz |
| Operating Temperature (HS 2020C) | 0°C to +70°C |
| Power Supply Range | ±15V max |
The HS 2020 is available in two versions: the HS 2020C specified for 0°C to +70°C, and the HS 2020B specified for -55°C to +125°C.
The gain is controlled by binary (TTL) inputs to the device, allowing for 8 steps from a range of 1 to 128.
The settling time for a gain of 128 is 40 µs.
