Description
Amplifier Research 100S1G6 RF Amplifier, 0.7 to 6 GHz, 100W
-
- Provides a minimum of 100 watts of RF power when used with a sweep generator
- Front panel gain control provides convenience of setting desired output level
- RF input leveling circuit:
- Protects the amplifier from RF input overdrive
- Controls RF input level to the RF amplifier first stage when RF input level is increased above 0 dBm
- RF amplifier stages are protected from over-temperature, due to cooling blockage or fan failure, by removing the DC voltage to them
- Digital Display on front panel indicates operate status and fault conditions when over-temperature or power supply fault occurs
- Control functions and status indications are available remotely in GPIB/IEEE format, RS-232 hardwire and fiber optic, USB and Ethernet
- Bus interface connector on back panel
- Local/Remote switch on front panel assures positive control of local or remote operation
- Low level of spurious signals and linearity make it ideal for these uses:
- As a driver amplifier in testing wireless and communication components and subsystems
- As a test instrument covering mutiple frequency bands
- For communication technologies including CDMA, W-CDMA, TDMA, GSM, etc.
