PORTRAYAL
What’s in This
Chapter
This chapter contains general and functional description of the
Model 9260 dual/differential wideband power amplifier. It also
describes the front and rear panel connectors and its operational
modes. It also and provides description of all features available with
the instrument.
Introduction
The Model 9260, as shown in Figure 1-1, is a bench-top, 2U, half
19” rack size, fully metal case dual channel amplifier. The
instrument can be configured to be used as two, single-ended and
independent channels, or as a one input with two differential
outputs.
The inputs to the amplifiers be configured to match different source
impedances such as 50 , 75 , or 1 M. The output is driven
from a 0 source.
There are three inputs for each channel:
1. Main input. This input is located on the front panel and is
normally used for signal inputs.
2. Auxiliary input. This input is located on the rear panel and can
be used as a summing input.
3. DC Offset input. This input is also located on the rear panel and
can be used for offsetting the signal level within the specified
output level window.
The outputs are located on the front panel. There are two outputs,
one for each channel. When the 9260 is configured as two
separate amplifiers, the outputs generate amplified signals within
the range of 34 Vp-p.
Note
The output of the 9260 tends to oscillate if left open. The same may
occur if the signal is applied to a high impedance source.
The bandwidth of the amplifier is around 30 MHz for large signals.
Small signal bandwidth can reach 45 MHz.
The 9260 can be configured as a differential amplifier. In this case,
the channel 2 input is disabled and channel 1 input is amplified and

distributed differentially to both outputs. In this case, channel 1
output generates in-phase signal while channel 2 outputs an
inverted signal that has exactly 180phase offset to the normal
output. Full amplitude and bandwidth is preserved when the 9260
operates in differential mode. Using the differential mode, the 9260
does not sacrifice accuracy, nor does it sacrifice bandwidth.
The 9260 has two additional inputs for each channel allowing
summation of two signals and providing an external control of DC
level offset. These inputs are accessible from the rear panel only.

Functional
Description
Detailed functional description of the features, operation and
options available with the 9260 is given in the following paragraphs.
The wideband amplifier can be ordered with different configurations
such as input impedance, gain, etc. Therefore read the following
description carefully and make sure your amplifier is configured
correctly for your application before you connect the cables to your
circuits.
Configuration
Options
The Model 9260 must be ordered from the factory already
configured for your application. This manual has no schematics and
no instructions how to modify the amplifier for other configurations
as any configuration change, without full engineering supervision,
may affect the performance of the amplifier. Below, you’ll find a list
of optional configurations for the amplifier:
Basic Configuration –defines if the 9260 will operate as two
single-ended and independent amplifiers, or as single input with
differential outputs.
Input Impedance –determines the matching source impedance at
the input connectors. Three options are available: 50, 75and
1M. Input impedance can be configured for the front panel main
inputs and for the rear panel auxiliary inputs.
Gain –specifies gain magnitude of the input signal. Factory default
setting is 10. Custom gain can also be specified. Note that some
characteristics of the output section may change for gain setting
above 10.
User Manual 9260
1-4 Portrayal
As explained above, all options must be specified at the time of
your purchase and the 9260 is supplied fully configured.
Reconfiguration of fielded instruments can be done by qualified and
trained persons only.
Specifications
Instrument specifications are listed in Appendix A. These
specifications are the performance standards or limits against
which the instrument is tested. Specifications apply under the
following conditions: output terminated into load impedance, after
30 minutes of warm up time, and within a temperature range of
20C to 30C. Specifications outside of the temperature range are
degraded by 0.1% per C.
Front Panel
Connectors
The 9260 has 4 BNC connectors on its front panel, two for each
channel. Two are marked INPUT and the other two are marked
OUTPUT. These connectors are described below.
Channel 1 Input
The input connector accepts signals within the range of DC to over
35 MHz and amplifies them by a fixed gain. The gain is normally
x10 however, this number may be different if you ordered the
amplifier with different gain setting. Input impedance is factory pre-
conditioned and has one of the following values: 50, or 1M.
1Minput impedance can be used for low frequency signals (up to
100kHz) however, higher frequencies require 50termination at
the input of the amplifier to eliminate standing waves and
reflections in the input cable, which can cause excessive ringing
and aberrations at the output.
The amplifier input cannot tolerate high voltage on its 50
resistance. Therefore, before applying the cable to the input
connector, make sure your signal will not exceed input rating, as
specified in Appendix A of this manual.
Note
Channel 1 Input only is used when the Model 9260
is configured to operate in differential mode.
User Manual 9260
Portrayal 1-5
Channel 2 Input
This input connector accepts signals within the range of DC to over
35 MHz and amplifies them by a fixed gain. The gain is normally
x10 however, this number may be different if you ordered the
amplifier with different gain setting. Input impedance is factory pre-
conditioned and has one of the following values: 50, or 1M.
1Minput impedance can be used for low frequency signals (up to
100kHz) however, higher frequencies require 50termination at
the input of the amplifier to eliminate standing waves and
reflections in the input cable, which can cause excessive ringing
and aberrations at the output.
The amplifier input cannot tolerate high voltage on its 50
resistance. Therefore, before applying the cable to the input
connector, make sure your signal will not exceed input rating, as
specified in Appendix A of this manual.
Note
Channel 2 Input is disabled when the 9260 is
configured to operate in differential output mode.
Channel 1 Output
The channel 1 output connector outputs amplified signals. When
the 9260 is configured as two separate amplifiers, this output
connector generates amplified signals that are applied to the
channel 1 input connector. If the instrument is configured for
differential output, this channel generates normal, non-inverted
signals while the other output connector generates the inverted
signal at 180phase offset.
Gain at this output is fixed at 10 (or another gain factor that was
specified at the time of your purchase). Output source impedance
is 0.
WARNING
Applying the output signal on inductive or
capacitive loads may damage the amplifier.
Channel 2 Output
The channel 2 output connector outputs amplified signals. When
the 9260 is configured as two separate amplifiers, this output
generates amplified signals that are applied to the channel 2 input
connector. If the instrument is configured for differential output, this
channel generates an inverted signal at 180phase offset while
channel 1 output generates the normal, non-inverted.
Gain at this output is fixed at 10 (or another gain factor that was
specified at the time of your purchase). Output source impedance
is 0.
User Manual 9260

WARNING
Applying the output signal on inductive or
capacitive loads may damage the amplifier.
Front Panel
Indicators
The 9260 has 2 indicators on its front panel. The POWER LED will
light as soon as you press the switch to power up the 9260. An
illuminated power light designates power is applied to the
instrument and you should expect to have signal at its output
connector(s).
An LED at the center of the front panel is marked Differential ON.
When this light is on, channel 2 input is disabled and signal applied
to the channel 1 input is routed to both channel 1 and channel 2
outputs, except the signal is now differential. The differential mode
is selected with a rear panel switch.
Rear Panel Parts
and Connectors
The rear panel is rarely used for normal operation however, there
are some connections you must do before you can operate the
amplifier for example, connecting the mains power to the
instrument. There are other connectors and parts on the rear panel;
These are discussed in the following paragraphs. Refer to Figure 1-
2 throughout the following description.
Figure 1-2, The 9260 Rear Panel
User Manual 9260
Portrayal 1-7
Line Receptacle and
Fuse
Power is connected to the 9260 through the line receptacle. The
amplifier accepts any voltage from 80 to 265Vac and there is no
need to select the voltage range between different countries.
Instructions how to connect the line cord and how to replace the
line fuse is given in Chapter 2. If a fuse blows, make sure you
replace it with the same type and rating to avoid possible damage
to the product from unsuitable fuse value.
Auxiliary Inputs
Channel 1
There are two Channel 1 auxiliary inputs on the rear panel marked
INPUT and OFFSET.
The INPUT connector can be used as summing input to the front
panel signal. It also can be used as the main input if connectors are
available on the back only. However, the output is always from the
front panel connectors. Observe the input limitations as specified in
Appendix A to avoid damage to the amplifier circuit.
The OFFSET connector is used for dc signals only. Use this input
to offset your signal to any direction, positive or negative however,
always observe the positive and negative rail limitations as
specified in Appendix A to avoid damaging the amplifier circuits.
With normal configuration, this input is used for driving the front
panel output for channel 1 only. When the 9260 is configured for
differential outputs, channel 2 auxiliary inputs are disabled and only
channel 1 signal is amplified.
Auxiliary Inputs
Channel 2
There are two Channel 2 auxiliary inputs on the rear panel marked
INPUT and OFFSET.
The INPUT connector can be used as summing input to the front
panel signal. It also can be used as the main input if connectors are
available on the back only. However, the output is always from the
front panel connectors. Observe the input limitations as specified in
Appendix A to avoid damage to the amplifier circuit.
The OFFSET connector is used for dc signals only. Use this input
to offset your signal to any direction, positive or negative however,
always observe the positive and negative rail limitations as
specified in Appendix A to avoid damaging the amplifier circuits.
With normal configuration, this input is used for driving the front
panel output for channel 2 only. When the 9260 is configured for
differential outputs, these inputs are disabled and only channel 1
signal is amplified.
User Manual 9260
1-8 Portrayal
Differential Outputs
Switch
The Differential Outputs switch has two actions. In normal mode, it
separates between the two channels so each channel can be used
separately. In Differential Mode, this switch disables channel 2
inputs and converts the internal circuits to output differential
signals. Channel 1 is used for outputting the normal output and
channel 2 is used for outputting the inverted signal. When this
switch is depressed, the front panel led illuminates, designating that
the differential mode has been selected.
Grounding
Considerations
Understanding how to connect your ground path could be critical to
preserving the integrity of your output signal. If you are using a
single-ended output then it will probably be safe for you to connect
the circuit ground to case ground. Always bear in mind the following
warning:
WARNING
Input and output grounds are tied together to case
ground and therefore, it is absolutely forbidden to
connect the output ground to a different level than
the input ground. Failure to adhere to this
limitation may damage the 9260 and the
surrounding equipment connected to its I/O
connectors.
Operating
Instructions
Being a passive device, there are no controls, nor computer
programming required to operate the Model 9260. The following
procedure is recommended for proper operation of the power
amplifier:
1. Make sure your box is configured for input and output
impedance and gain
2. Follow the installation instructions given in Chapter 2 of this
manual
3. Connect the output terminal to your load
4. Connect the input terminal to your source
5. Turn on power to your 9260
WARNING
There is no switch control to turn 9260
amplification on and off and therefore, the
amplifier is active immediately after you power it
up. Always make sure your load is protected from
inadvertent power up conditions before you turn
on your 9260.

Operating
Environment
The 9260 is intended for operation on the bench or inside a rack of
instruments. It is intended for indoor use only and should be
operated in a clean, dry environment with an ambient temperature
within the range of 0 °C to 50 °C.
WARNING
The 9260 must not be operated in explosive, dusty, or
wet atmospheres. Avoid installation of the module
close to strong magnetic fields.
The design of the 9260 has been verified to conform to EN 61010-1
2nd addition safety standard per the following limits: Installation
(Overvoltage) Category I (Measuring terminals) Pollution Degree 2.
Installation (Overvoltage) Category I refers to signal level, which is
applicable for equipment measuring terminals that are connected to
source circuits in which measures are taken to limit transient
voltages to an appropriately low level.
Pollution Degree 2 refers to an operating environment where
normally only dry non-conductive pollution occurs. Occasionally a
temporary conductivity caused by condensation must be expected.
Power
Requirements
The amplifier may be operated from a wide range of mains voltage 90
to 264Vac. Voltage selection is automatic and does not require switch
setting. The instrument operates over the power mains frequency
range of 48 to 63Hz. Always verify that the operating power mains
voltage is the same as that specified on the rear panel.
The 9260 should be operated from a power source with its neutral at
or near ground (earth potential). The instrument is not intended for
operation from two phases of a multi-phase ac system or across the
legs of a single-phase, three-wire ac power system. Crest factor (ratio
of peak voltage to rms.) should be typically within the range of 1.3 to
1.6 at 10% of the nominal rms. mains voltage.
User Manual 9260
2-4 Portrayal
Grounding
Requirements
To ensure the safety of operating personnel, the U.S. O.S.H.A.
(Occupational Safety and Health) requirement and good engineering
practice mandate that the instrument panel and enclosure be “earth”
grounded. Although BNC housings are isolated from the front panel,
the metal part is connected to earth ground.
WARNING
Do not attempt to float the output from ground as it may
damage the Model 9260 and your equipment.
WARNING
Input and output grounds are tied together and there-
fore, it is absolutely forbidden to connect the output
ground to a different level than the input ground. Failure
to adhere to this limitation may damage the 9260 and the
surrounding equipment connected to its I/O connectors.
