The DM-X200-04 from Diamond Microwave is a compact pulsed X-band GaN SSPA that operates from 8.2 to 9.5 GHz. It provides peak pulsed output power of more than 200 W (+53 dBm) over a 1300 MHz bandwidth, operating with pulse widths up to 100 µs and with duty cycles up to 15%. The SSPA has built-in phase control to optimize power combining and is a compact alternative to vacuum tube amplifiers (TWT) in demanding defence, aerospace and communications applications. It is available in as a slimline module that measures 150 mm x 197 mm x 30 mm with N-type output connectors (a waveguide interface can be offered as an option). The design is flexible in layout and architecture and can be tailored to meet individual specifications and enclosure requirements.
