PRECISION HIGH VOLTAGE AMPLIFIER
ULTRAVOLT HVA SERIES
The UltraVolt HVA series of DC-to-DC high voltage power supplies operates a precision filter/
divider and linear HV switch to produce a high voltage amplifier (HVA). These modules provide
a high-resolution, programmable, high voltage DC to full scale waveform capability greater than
1 kHz output. This is optimized for bias applications while providing excellent line regulation,
load regulation, dynamic response, and stability. It can both source and sink current.
