FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

The 3010-series devices are continuously variable, single-input, single-
output, passive delay lines. The signal input (IN) is reproduced at the
output (OUT), shifted by a time (T
D
) which is adjusted via an applied
control voltage (VC). This control voltage is positive for the 3010-P and
negative for the 3010-N. The characteristic impedance of the line is
nominally 50 ohms. The rise time (T
R
) of the lines is no more than 1ns, resulting in a 3dB bandwidth of at
least 300MHz. The delay resolution is limited only by that of the control voltage.
