Amplifier Research 90S4G8 The Amplifier Research 90S4G8 is a self-contained, air-cooled, broadband amplifier designed for applications that require instantaneous bandwidth, high gain and linearity. Features and Specifications of the Amplifier Research 90S4G8 include:
Features:
Provides a minimum of 90 watts of RF power when used with a sweep generator
Digital Control Panel (DCP):
Provides both local and remote control of the amplifier
Uses a graphic liquid Crystal Display:
Provides operational presentation of forward power and reflected power
Provides control status
Provides reports of internal amplifier status
Uses menu assigned softkeys
Uses a single rotary knob
Uses a dedicated on/off switch
Offers extensive control and status reporting capability
Special features:
Gain control
Internal/external automatic level control (ALC) with front panel control of the ALC threshold
Pulse input capability
RF output level protection
Internal RF detector which provides an output for use in self-testing or operational modes
All control functions and status indications are available remotely in GPIB/IEEE-488 format, RS-232 hardwire and fiber optic, USB, and Ethernet
Bus interface connectoron back panel
Keylock on front panel assures positive control of local or remote operation
Low spurious signals, linearity, and load tolerance make it ideal for these various uses:
RF susceptibility testing
Antenna/component testing
Communication technology testing
As a test instrument covering multiple frequency bands
Suitable for communication technologies including CDMA, W-CDMA, TDMA, GSM, UWB, WiMAX etc.
Expandable power, versatility, and upgrade capability
