About this file
This document specifies the salient characteristics for a 300-Watt C- and X-Band Amplifier, detailing the electrical, mechanical, and environmental requirements for the equipment.
The amplifier must utilize GaN pulsed amplification technology and operate across a frequency range of 5.5 GHz to 10.5 GHz with a minimum bandwidth. Electrical specifications include 50-ohm input/output impedance, typical input power of 0 dBm (with a maximum of 33 dBm), and output power exceeding 55 dBm (300W). The device must maintain a maximum duty cycle of 15%, with power-added efficiency at saturation of 18% typical (15% minimum), gain at saturation exceeding 55 dB, and gain flatness of ±3 dB or less. Additional electrical requirements include VSWR less than 3:1, voltage drain of 40V DC or less, maximum DC power of 1500W, input/output return loss less than 15 dB, RF gating blanking with TTL 3V to 5V logic, and blanking response time under 2 microseconds. The amplifier shall be packaged as a connectorized module with maximum dimensions of 12L x 10W x 5D inches (305L x 254W x 127 mm), featuring SMA female input connectors and SMA, TNC, or N-Type female output connectors. Environmental specifications require an operating temperature range from -20°C to +65°C and storage temperature range from -40°C to +85°C, with forced air cooling over an external heatsink. The document notes that multiple parameters, including input power, PAE, gain, gain flatness, and dimensions, are marked as flexible.
