Model 100S1G6
M1 through M3
100 Watts CW
0.7GHz–6GHz
The Model 100S1G6 is a solid-state, Class A design, self-contained, aircooled, broadband amplifier designed for applications where instantaneous
bandwidth, high gain and linearity are required. Housed in a stylish
contemporary cabinet, the unit is designed for benchtop use, but can be
removed from the cabinet for immediate equipment rack mounting.
The 100S1G6, when used with a sweep generator, will provide a minimum
of 100 watts of RF power. Included is a front panel gain control which
permits the operator to conveniently set the desired output level. The
100S1G6 is protected from RF input overdrive by an RF input leveling circuit
which controls the RF input level to the RF amplifier first stage when the RF
input level is increased above 0 dBm. The RF amplifier stages are protected
from over-temperature by removing the DC voltage to them if an over-temperature condition occurs due to cooling
blockage or fan failure. There is a digital display on the front panel to indicate the operate status and fault conditions if an
over-temperature or power supply fault has occurred. The unit can be returned to operate when the condition has been
cleared. All amplifier control functions and status indications are available remotely in GPIB/IEEE-488 format, RS-232
hardwire and fiber optic, USB, and Ethernet. The bus interface connector is located on the back panel and positive
control of local or remote operation is assured by a Local/Remote switch on the front panel of the amplifier.
The low level of spurious signals and
linearity of the Model 100S1G6
make it ideal for use as a driver
amplifier in testing wireless and
communication components and
subsystems. It can be used as a test
instrument covering multiple
frequency bands and is suitable for a
variety of communication
technologies such as CDMA, WCDMA, TDMA, GSM etc. It is also
suitable for EMC Test applications
where undistorted modulation
envelopes are desired.
The export classification for this
equipment is 3A001. These
commodities, technology or software
are controlled for export in
accordance with the U.S. Export
Administration Regulations. Diversion
