The 8000TP2z7G3z1 from AR RF/Microwave Instrumentation is a Traveling Wave Tube (TWT) Microwave Amplifier that operates from 2.7 to 3.1 GHz. It delivers peak pulse power of up to 10 kW with a gain of more than 69 dB. This amplifier supports a pulse width ranging from 0.1 to 40 µs, a pulse rate of up to 100 kHz and a duty cycle of less than 1%. It has a pulse delay of less than 500 ns (from pulse input to RF 90%) and a rise/fall time of less than 50 ns.
This amplifier has harmonic distortion of less than -20 dBc and a noise power density of -80 dBm/Hz when the pulse is ON, and -140 dBm/Hz when the pulse is off). It requires an AC supply of 190-260 V and consumes less than 2 KW of power. This amplifier can be controlled via a built-in IEEE-488 (GPIB) interface and it has status indicators for power on, warm-up, standby, operate, faults, excess average or peak reflected power warning and remote operation.
The 8000TP2z7G3z1 is available in a package that measures 50.3 x 26 x 88.9 cm and has Type N female (RF input), Type DIN 7-16 female (RF output) & Type BNC female (pulse input) connectors. It is ideal for test & measurement, (including EMC RF pulse susceptibility testing), industrial & university research and development, and service applications.
