Solid State Amplifiers - Continuous Wave
Find the Right Solid State CW Amplifier
Choosing an amplifier starts with two numbers: the frequency range you need to cover and the power you need to deliver. AR solid-state CW amplifiers run from 10 kHz to millimeter wave, in four ranges: RF, U Series, Microwave and Millimeter Wave. Open a range below to see its models by frequency and output power, then follow the link on any product for full specifications. All are self-contained and broadband, built to cope with mismatched loads, and they reproduce AM, FM and pulse modulation from the input signal.
Max Frequency 40 GHz | Max Power 10 kW
Not sure which model suits your application, or need something built around it? Contact us and our team will help you choose the right amplifier or discuss a custom solution.
The A and W Series are our core EMC test amplifiers. They deliver the field strength you need across the full operating band, with excellent flatness and strong tolerance of mismatched loads. Most models are air cooled, and the higher power units are liquid cooled, with output up to 80,000 W.
