About this file

This document is a salient characteristics specification sheet for a 300-Watt C- & X-Band Amplifier using GaN pulsed amplification technology.

The amplifier operates across a 5.5GHz to 10.5GHz minimum bandwidth with 50-ohm input/output impedance. The device delivers output power exceeding 55dBm (300W) at saturation with a maximum 15% duty cycle and typical power-added efficiency (PAE) of 18% at saturation (15% minimum). Gain at saturation exceeds 55dB typical with gain flatness less than ±3dB at 0dBm input, and VSWR below 3:1. The amplifier accepts typical input power of 0dBm with flexibility up to 33dBm maximum. Blanking operates via RF gating with TTL 3v to 5v logic and response times under 2 microseconds. Bias voltage is 40v DC maximum with total DC power consumption under 1500W.

The connectorized module measures 12L x 10W x 5D inches maximum (305L x 254W x 127mm maximum, noted as flexible) with SMA female input connectors and SMA, TNC, or N-Type female output options. The amplifier operates across -20°C to +65°C minimum and stores at -40°C to +85°C minimum, utilizing forced air cooling over an external heatsink. Input and output return loss specifications are less than 15dB. Multiple specifications are noted as flexible, including input power, PAE, gain at saturation, gain flatness, and dimensions.
