New Version of Power Amplifier Offers Pulse Fidelity and Improved Spurious Response

April 5, 2008 Interference Technology Amplifiers, Products, Technologies, Test Instrumentation

A new version of the RM022020 from CAP Wireless achieves enhanced performance with excellent pulse fidelity and improved spurious response (typically -85 dBc). This new version of the RM022020, originally introduced in the fall of 2007, is part of a series of high-power instrumentation amplifiers based the CAP’s proprietary Spatium™ broadband spatial combining technology. Developed especially for test environments that demand extreme bandwidth without switching or re-connecting amplifiers, this solid-state amplifier provides 20 W nominal saturated output power over an instantaneous band of two to 20 GHz. It offers superior inter-modulation distortion (IMD) performance, linearity, and gain flatness—without the warm-up, drift, or aging issues associated with traveling wave tube amplifiers (TWTAs).
