Amplifier Model 10ST1G18A

10ST1G18A_100The Model 10ST1G18A is a self contained, forced air cooled, broadband hybrid solid state and traveling wave tube (TWT) microwave amplifier designed for applications where low harmonic content is required in sub-band ranges and where high gain and moderate power output are required. A reliable amplifier system that provides a conservative 10 Wminimum at the amplifier output connector with low harmonics.

RF Test System Controllers

SystemControllerAR’s versatile RF test system controllers (signal routing switch matrices) coordinate multiple pieces of equipment in a single test setup alleviating the need for changing cable feeds due to frequency limitations of individual pieces. The SC1000’s can be used as RF switch matrices and can be controlled by SW888A and SW10006 software.

Solid State Microwave Amplifiers

MicroAmpAR offers several families of solid state microwave amplifiers: 0.8 to 4.2GHz (1 to 700 W); 0.8 to 3 GHz (15 to 800 W); 4 to 10.6 GHz (1 to 150 W); 4 to 8 GHz (15 to 120 W) and 8 to 20 GHz ( 5 to 20 W). Our S series amps generate 100% of rated power and make it available to the load even when mismatch is severe. 100% of the power is available and delivered to the output device 100% of the time.

Test Systems

CISystemThe AR CI systems are self-contained conducted immunity test systems that provide outstanding ease of use and flexibility. Because each system is contained in a single rack, setup issues are eliminated. The use of spectrum analyzers and monitoring equipment may also be controlled by the Lab-View based software that controls the system.
