1-5 Additional points to be noted for operation of HV amplifier
(1) Keep the length of output cable as short as possible.
(2) Keep the output cable away from floor, desks, or metal objects.
(3) Have no shielding on the output cable.
Due to the character of HV amplifier, the output cable of the unit is not shielded. If the
output cable has some stray capacity against ground (earth or metal object), output
voltage will be sinusoidal or step waveform and extra current will be drawn. As this
current draw parallel to load, the following appearance might be happened.
①Rated maximum voltage or current cannot be obtained.
②The waveform at constant current operation or current monitor is
distorted or changed

Capacitive Load
When operated with a capacitive load of more than 100pF (including floating capacity of
output cable), the output might oscillate. In such a case put a high voltage resister of 100Ω
(0.1μF) to 1kΩ (1000pF) in series to output. Please also note that with capacitive load the
bandwidth is limited according to the formula below.
Frequency Response
In case clear output waveform is required, please select a HV amplifier which has high
enough frequency bandwidth against required frequency.
In general 3 to 5 times more frequency bandwidth for sinusoidal waveform, and about 10
times more for rectangular waveform, is required. In case of insufficient frequency bandwidth
the output swing shall be reduced, and also the phase difference be large, so some solutions,
such as monitoring output waveform, shall be required.
Rise Time (step responsibility)
Responsibility can be indicated with rise time. (fig.2) Usually the rise time of amplifier of
responsibility (= bandwidth) fc (Hz) is given by a formula below.
tr ≒0.35/fc
The rise time tf is equals to tr.
