100T40G50

100 W CW, 40 - 50 GHz

The Model 100T40G50 is a self-contained, forced air-cooled, broadband traveling wave tube (TWT) microwave amplifier designed for applications where instantaneous bandwidth and high gain are required. A reliable TWT subsystem provides a conservative 100 W minimum, measured at the amplifier output flange. Stated power specifications are at the fundamental frequency.

CW TWT Amplifier 100T40G50, 100 W CW, 40 - 50 GHz

Overview

The amplifier’s front panel digital display shows forward and reflected output plus extensive system status information accessed through a series of menus via soft keys. Status indicators include power on, warm-up, standby, operate, faults, excess reflected power warning, and remote. Standard features include a built-in IEEE-488 (GPIB) interface, 0 dBm input, VSWR protection, gain control, RF output sample ports, plus monitoring of TWT helix current, cathode voltage, collector voltage, heater current, heater voltage, baseplate temperature, and cabinet temperature.
