Ultravolt Introduces New Line Of High Voltage Amplifiers

October 05, 2008 by Jeff Shepard

UltraVolt, Inc. announced the development of a new precision high-voltage amplifier – the "HVA" series – capable of operating in dc, reversible, and amplifier modes. The "HVA" series provides a high-resolution programmable high-voltage dc to greater than 1 kHz output.

This series of high-voltage amplifiers is optimized for bias applications and is said to provide excellent line regulation, load regulation, dynamic response, and stability. According to the company, tne of the most advanced features of the "HVA" series is its ability to both source and sink current.

All "HVA" series units exhibit 10ppm temperature coefficients on the +10Vdc reference and 25ppm coefficients on the output voltage monitor and high voltage output. In addition to offering high-precision and low temperature coefficients, "HVA" series units provide PPM-level line and load regulation. Another key feature of the new "HVA" series is its low micro-discharge (LMD) design, making it less susceptible to surface charge problems.

"HVA" series units are available in either unipolar or bipolar configurations. Output voltages for bipolar "HVA" series modules are available at 0 to ±5kV. Unipolar high-voltage amplifiers are available at 0 to 10kV (positive or negative).

"UltraVolt’s new "HVA" series directly addresses the needs of our analytical equipment & production tool customers" said James Morrison, Co-Founder & CEO. "This new series of standard product high-voltage amplifiers offers the precision capabilities needed for advanced designs."
