Instruments for Industry (IFI), has recently presented a new solid-state microwave pulse power amplifier, the S21-4KWP-2KWP FLEX.
According to IFI, the amplifier has a frequency range of 1.0 GHz to 2.0 GHz and supplies 4 kW of pulse power up to 10% duty cycle with a maximum pulse width of 100 uS.
“The unit’s comprehensive user interface features a backlit screen that shows both forward/reverse power indication, system status and self-diagnostic information. Power indication is shown in pulse, which is very innovative and useful for customer monitoring parameters,” according to the company.
The S21-4KWP-2KWP FLEX can be used for radar and high-intensity radiated field (HIRF) testing as well as automotive and industrial applications.
“Safety features of IFI’s new solid-state amplifier include a full complement of RF and hardware protection circuits like voltage standing wave ration (VSWR), over current, voltage protection, and redundant thermal and airflow sensors for the module and full system,” IFI added.
