•Following the tests, there must still be a minimum clearance of 12.7 mm
between the rack or enclosure and the power supply. There shall be no
deformation of the power supply.
•You must install and operate this device with a disconnect switch that
conforms to the applicable requirements. The switch must be easily
accessible and near the device.
•The ON/OFF power switch does not completely disconnect the Mains.
You must install an external switch to completely disconnect Mains.
•Use only shielded cables on the Host (RS-232, PROFIBUS, or Ethernet)
and User Port connectors.
•Install this device so that the input power (Mains) connection is
inaccessible to the user.

and satisfy safety requirements. The presence of interlocks or limits
does not imply operator protection.
All HPG generators have an Interlock interface. This interface allows you to
integrate any HPG generator into a system interlock loop that can interrupt the
delivered RF power. The interlock is connected on the 25-pin User port by
providing external contact closure between pins 10 and 23 (see Table 4-2 on
page 4-6).
Even if you do not connect this HPG generator into a larger system interlock
loop, you must make the proper interlock loop connections for the unit to
enable RF power.
The HPG Generator may be shipped with an interlock jumper plug that
provides a connection between the interlock pins. You can use this jumper
plug to satisfy the interlock and enable operation in situations where you do
not intend to connect the remaining pins on this port.

Product Overview and Theory
DESCRIPTION
HPG™ 13150 400 V RF Power Generators are a new generation of compact,
high power generators for semiconductor production, the flat panel industry,
and various industrial plasma applications. Typical applications include
sputtering, reactive ion etching, PECVD, surface treatment, and CO
systems.
This 13.56 MHz power generator incorporates a unique combination of solidstate MOSFET driver technology and a modern tube amplifier that employes
reliable ceramic grid power tubes. The advantages of this efficient Class B
amplifier concept include:
laser

Chapter
Chapter

•Reduced cost-of-ownership as compared to purely solid-state systems
•Reduced downtime due to modern tube technology that provides
extended lifetime and easy-access cavity design for quick tube exchange.
•Robust ability to handle excessive mismatch on the load du e to the highly
resilient tube characteristics.
Designed to regulate power into a broad range of output impedances, the
HPG generator can operate in forward, load, or external power regulation
mode (see “Setting Regulation Mode” on page 5-11).
You can control the HPG generator remotely through an analog User Port
(see “HPG Generator User Port” on page 4-4) or a serial Host port (see “HPG
Generator Host Port Options” on page 4-21). The front panel features a liquid
crystal display (LCD) with an easy-to-use menu that includes widely
programmable pulse functions, a target lifetime counter, and submenus to
customize your own recipes, reflected power settings, and Variomatch
settings (when the generator is connected to a Variomatch unit). In addition,
you may control RF power using the front panel controls. For operation
instructions, see “First-Time Operation” on page 5-8 and “Normal Operation”
on page 5-11.
