Giga-tronics GT-1050B Microwave Power Amplifier 2 GHz to 50 GHz

The Giga-tronics GT-1050B Microwave Power Amplifier offers linear high-power amplification across multi-octave bands. They is ideal for testing in R&D Lab, ATE Systems, wireless communications applications and Defense EW systems. The 2 GHz to 50 GHz frequency range allows broadband testing without band switching or swapping narrow band amplifiers resulting in faster and more accurate testing.

The amplifiers can be used in wireless communications and component testing wherever a highly linear amplifier is needed. These microwave power amplifiers with excellent pulse fidelity are ideal for many Aerospace and Defense applications, including EW, ECM, ECCM, radar and satellite system signal simulation and testing. The GT-1050B is an ideal ATE system building block for boosting test signals to overcome cable and connector loss whenever long cable runs are needed in assembly bays, environmental test chambers or field locations.

The amplifier nominally provides 25 dB of gain over the 2 GHz to 50 GHz frequency range. The GT-1050B can be paired with a Giga-tronics 2540B 40 GHz Microwave Signal Generator or with Giga-tronics 2550B 50 GHz Microwave Signal Generator, increasing the overall output power while preserving the synthesizer's fast switching speed, modulation, and high signal fidelity.
