The 30S1G6 from AR RF/Microwave Instrumentation is a Solid-State Class A Amplifier System that operates from 0.7 to 6.0 GHz. It delivers an output power of over 30 W (when used with a sweep generator) with a gain of more than 44 dB. The amplifier supports front panel gain control which permits the operator to conveniently set the desired output level.
The 30S1G6 is protected from RF input overdrive by an RF input leveling circuit which controls the RF input level to the RF amplifier first stage when the RF input level is increased above 0 dBm. The RF amplifier stages are protected from over-temperature by removing the DC voltage to them if an over temperature condition occurs due to cooling blockage or fan failure.
The amplifier system has a digital display on the front panel to indicate the operate status and fault conditions when an over-temperature or power supply fault has occurred. It includes digital control for both local and remote control of the amplifier. All amplifier control functions, and status indication are available remotely in GPIB/IEEE-488 format and Ethernet.
The amplifier is available in a benchtop/rack-mountable enclosure that measures 19.8 x 6.1 x 14.8 inches with N-type Female connectors. It has the US export classification of EAR99. The amplifier system requires a primary AC supply of 90-132, 180-264 V at 50/60 Hz (single phase, automatic selection) and consumes less than 300 W of power.
The export classification for this amplifier is EAR99 - This means that commodities, technology or software are controlled for export in accordance with the U.S. Export Administration Regulations.
