TMD Technologies will be featuring its latest microwave products at the International Microwave Symposium 2016 from May 24-26, at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, CA. They will be showcasing their PTS6900 solid state Microwave Power Module and latest PTXM Series high power density Travelling Wave Tube based ultra-compact MPMs, plus their new range of PTX8807 Ka band TWT based compact MPMs as well as Ku band fast warm ring loop TWTs.
Live demonstrations:
They will be giving daily live demonstrations of their new solid state PTS6900 MPM – an advanced GaN MMIC based module optimized for EW/ECM systems. Visitors to their stand will now be able to see the exceptional performance of their new module. They achieve this by setting up the PTS6900 to operate into a dummy load, with the resultant output power shown on a display.
Solid State PTS6900 MPM:
Optimized for EW/ECM systems, this solid state amplifier employs the latest 0.25 µm GaN MMIC technology to provide first-rate performance over the 2 to 6 GHz range. This ITAR - free MPM offers an output power of 150 W and adjustable 55 dB gain. It also has instant start up, fast mute time, and predicted over 30,000 hours MTBF for an airborne uninhabited fighter environment.
PTXM Series TWT based MPMs:
Ideal for UAVs – where low volume and weight are critical – this new TWT based PTXM Series operate over the 4.5 to 18 GHz band with output powers up to 140 W. With a weight of typically only 1.7 kg, these ultra-compact MPMs offer probably the highest power density on the market.
More new compact TWT based MPMs:
They have added a new range of Ka band compact MPMs to their TWT based range. Exemplified by the PTX8807, operating over the 32 to 36 GHz range at 200 W output power, these new modules are designed for radar and EW applications.
In addition, they will be exhibiting their fast warm Ku band ring loop TWTs and rapidly developing range of instrumentation TWT and solid state amplifiers. They have applications in the avionics and aerospace industries for radar/EW simulation and training and also EMC HIRF testing.
