Amplifier Research 700S1G4A

Amplifier Research 700S1G4A Microwave Amplifier : The Amplifier Research 700S1G4A is a portable, self-contained, air-cooled, broadband, completely solid-state amplifier designed for applications where instantaneous bandwidth, high gain and linearity are required. Push-pull circuitry is utilized in all high power stages in the interest of lowering distortion and improving stability. The Amplifier Research 700S1G4A, when used with a sweep generator, will provide a minimum of 700 watts of RF power. The Amplifier Research  700S1G4A is equipped with a Digital Control Panel (DCP) which provides both local and remote control of the amplifier. The DCP uses a color LCD touch screen and a single rotary knob to offer status reporting and control capability. The display provides Forward Power and Reflected Power values plus amplifier status. Special features include a gain control and RF output level protection. All amplifier control functions and status indications are available remotely in GPIB/IEEE-488 format, RS232 hardwire and fiber optic, USB and Ethernet. The buss interface connector is located on the back panel and positive control of local or remote operation is assured by a keylock on the front panel of the amplifier. The low level of spurious signals and linearity of the Amplifier Research 700S1G4A make it ideal for use as a driver amplifier in testing wireless and communication components and subsystems. It can be used as a test instrument covering multiple frequency bands and is suitable for a variety of communication technologies such as CDMA, W-CDMA, TDMA, GSM etc. It is also suitable for EMC Test applications where undistorted modulation envelopes are desired. Functions and Specifications of the Amplifier Research 700S1G4A Includes: RATED OUTPUT POWER: 700 watts minimum INPUT FOR RATED OUTPUT: 1.0 milliwatt maximum POWER OUTPUT @ 3dB COMPRESSION:Nominal, 700 watts;Minimum, 625 watts POWER OUTPUT @ 1dB COMPRESSION:Nominal, 600 watts;Minimum, 525 watts FLATNESS: ±1.5 dB typical; ±2.0 dB maximum FREQUENCY RESPONSE: 0.8-4.2GHz instantaneously GAIN (at maximum setting): 59 dB minimum GAIN ADJUSTMENT: 15 dB minimum INPUT IMPEDANCE: 50 ohms, VSWR 2.0:1 maximum OUTPUT IMPEDANCE: 50 ohms nominal MISMATCH TOLERANCE* 100% of rated power without foldback.Will operate without damage or oscillation with anymagnitude and phase of source and load impedance.  MODULATION CAPABILITY: Will faithfully reproduce AM, FM,or pulse modulation appearing on the input signal. HARMONIC DISTORTION: Minus 20 dBc maximum at 700 watts THIRD ORDER INTERCEPT POINT: 67 dBm typical RF POWER DISPLAY: Digital, forward and reflected PRIMARY POWER: 200-260VAC, 50/60 Hz, single phase, 3800 watts IEEE-488 (GPIB) INTERFACE & RS-232: Allows control and monitoringof all front panel controls except keylock position control COOLING: Forced air (self contained fans) WEIGHT: 124.8 kg (275 lbs) SIZE(WxHxD):50.3x127x61cm(19.8x50x24 in) EXPORT CLASSIFICATION: 3A001
