MODEL 200S1G4
state amplifier designed for
pull circuitry is utilized in all high
power stages in the interest of lowering distortion and improving stability. The Model 200S1G4, when used with a sweep
a Digital Control Panel (DCP) which provides both local and remote control of the
amplifier. The DCP uses a digital display, menu assigned softkeys, a single rotary knob, and four dedicated switches
ive control and status reporting capability. The
display provides operational presentation of Forward Power and Reflected Power plus control status and reports of internal
ic level control (ALC) with front panel
control of the ALC threshold, pulse input capability and RF output level protection. Also included is an internal RF detector
which provides an output for use in self
hardwire and fiber optic. The buss interface connector is located on the back panel and positive control of local or remote
The low level of spurious signals and linearity of the Model 200S1G4 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 cove
