A HIGH-POWER AMPLIFIER (PA) dubbed model L0618-46 operates from 6 to 18 GHz. It delivers an average of 50 to 60 W and at least 40 W of output power. Small signal gain is greater than 47 dB. The PA offers SMA input and Type N output RF connectors. It operates from a DC supply of +12 V at 52 A. The L0618-46 allows many options to be specified via TTL command, such as fast on/off switching that is typically 35 ns with a maximum of 50 ns. Although the PA package measures 13 x 1 x 1.5 in., the unit also can be provided in a 19-in. rack-mount chassis.
