It is not surprising that the largest category of news items we received for the show was for amplifiers but I was a little taken back that is was almost a third of the bunch. Here are some of the various show news items for amplifier products: Narda’s Multifunction...

The International Microwave Symposium (IMS), the annual conference and exhibition of the IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society (MTT-S), will feature several student events, including the student paper competition and three student design competitions. This year IMS received 232 student papers, and the 24 best papers will be presented...

Empower RF Systems , a manufacturer of solid-state power amplifiers and amplifier-based solutions, announced the opening of a Regional Design Center located in Holbrook, NY. The establishment of the Regional Design Center expands the company’s engineering capabilities and will play a key role in product development, device evaluation, customer...

AR ’s model 20S6G18, a 20 W solid state amplifier covering 6 to 18 GHz, provides high gain, low noise, good linearity and excellent mismatch capability. The amplifier also delivers superior EVM (error vector magnitude) performance. With a minimum of 43 dB gain and a typical noise figure of...

ASC is pleased to announce Model ASC357C, the first of a new product line of wideband, high dynamic range amplifiers using the latest GaN HEMT devices. Their higher voltage and power density operation offer much lower parasitic capacitance and much higher dynamic resistance that provide wider bandwidth and higher...

RLC Electronics Inc. now offers a full-range of waveguide switches in both SPDT and DPDT configurations. The design offers a compact size that utilizes a proprietary non-contacting actuator mechanism that requires low current. Options include a choice of coil voltages ranging from 5 to 28 VDC, frequency ranges of...

The BBS3E3KXU is one of Empower 's highest power amplifier systems, covering 240 to 470 MHz and providing 62 dB of gain and 2 kW output power in pulse applications, or 1.5 kW CW @ 1 dB gain compression. RF output can be muted within 2 µs making it...

A brand new microwave power module (MPM) is being launched by TMD Technologies at the IEEE's International Microwave Symposium in Boston, MA. The PTX8207 includes a "next generation" high power mini-TWT to provide a wider frequency range and higher power than previous models. The PTX8207 is specified to provide...

The International Microwave Symposium (IMS) will introduce its first-ever Presentations Online at IMS2009. The program will provide online access to recordings of most technical presentations, workshops and short courses held during IMS. IMS2009, the annual conference and exhibition of the IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society (MTT-S), is the...
