# Council Regulation (EC) No 428/2009 of 5 May 2009 setting up a Community regime for the control of exports, transfer, brokering and transit of dual-use items (Recast), Division [3A230]: High-speed pulse generators, and ‘pulse heads’ therefor, having both of the following characteristics:

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

a..Output voltage greater than 6 V into a resistive load of less than 55 ohms, and
b..‘Pulse transition time’ less than 500 ps.
Technical Notes:
1.
In 3A230, ‘pulse transition time’ is defined as the time interval between 10 % and 90 % voltage amplitude.
2.
‘Pulse heads’ are impulse forming networks designed to accept a voltage step function and shape it into a variety of pulse forms that can include rectangular, triangular, step, impulse, exponential, or monocycle types. ‘Pulse heads’ can be an integral part of the pulse generator, they can be a plug-in module to the device or they can be an externally connected device.
