Choosing the Right RF Amplifier Rental: Solid State & TWT, CW & Pulse
ATEC carries a variety of RF power amplifier rental options, including units built with solid state and TWT technology.
Solid state power amplifiers (SSPA) operate on narrower bandwidths and require less voltage. Traveling wave tube amplifiers, known as
TWT amplifiers, are ideal for applications that call for a wide bandwidth and long operating lifetime. Our inventory of RF amplifiers can be further divided into
continuous wave (CW) amplifiers, which produce power continuously, and
pulse amplifiers, which amplify pulse signals.
ATEC rents class A, class B, and class AB amplifiers with LDMOS, GaN, or GaAs transistor technology.
Types of EMC Amplifiers
- Broadband Amplifiers
- A broadband amplifier keeps noise figure low and offers moderate transmission gain across larger bandwidths.
- Gain Block Amplifiers
- Gain block amps offer more gain than a broadband amplifier, but are not ideal for low noise applications. A gain block amp is advantageous in IF, RF, and microwave transmitter test applications.
- Log Amplifiers
- Log amplifiers offer enhanced gain curve for situations when the output is a natural log of the input voltage.
- Variable Gain Amplifiers
- A variable gain amplifier allows users to control and even program gain levels. Variable attenuators or built-in circuits serve as the mechanisms for gain control. Variable gain amps are used first and foremost as a means of closed-loop circuit control for maintaining consistent signal power levels.
- Low Noise Amplifiers
- A low noise amplifier harnesses a part of the transmitter or receiver design where a low-power signal needs to be boosted without high noise or phase noise.
- Linear Amplifiers
- Linear amplifiers are capable of high-quality linear performance, meaning they maintain a proportional linear relationship between input and output. These amplifiers are engineered to optimize linearity over other signal characteristics, particularly in different load conditions.
