High-energy-physics - AM10/1.3S-53-53---CW/Pulsed-Power

Utilising the latest GaN & LDMOS transistor technology, AM10 amplifiers are designed for high efficiency applications. This L-band model is suitable for operation with CW pulsed or modulated signals, and will output the full rated power into a load of any vswr or phase. Excellent low-distortion (flat-top) pulse response for use in accelerator systems. Mechanically robust and with protection circuits to ensure long-term reliability, the amplifier can be supplied in modular form for OEM system integration, with optional integral air-cooling, or as a complete stand-alone instrumentation model in 19" chassis for rackmount or bench-top use.
