The XT-200 combines dual electro-mechanical trombones separately and in parallel to offer 0 to 625.0 ps of total delay in each channel of a dual channel unit. In one single unit, the XT-200 offers the same resolution (to 0.50 ps step size) as the XT-100 while doubling the number of chanels as needed for diferential signals. the total delay range of the instrument. The XT-200 is equivalent to two XT-100’s in parallel but in half the size and with only one unit to command and control.
For demanding applications where completely wideband passive delay is required across the entire signal path, the XT-200 offers industry leading performance.
The XT-200's high-resolution delay line based on the Electro-Mechanical Trombone delay line structure has a total delay range from 0 to 625 ps and bandwidth from DC to 18 Ghz. An internal stepper motor produces precise delay steps with a resolution to 0.5 ps when operated in series connected mode. The patented Mechanical Trombone design has an outstanding operational lifetime of 500,000 operations, and an absolute accuracy of 0.1%, ± 0.2 ps.
