3100LA
POWER AMPLIFIER
The 3100LA Amplifier is a rugged source of RF
power, useful for RFI/EMI, HF and VHF transmitters,
plasma equipment, nuclear accelerators and general
laboratory applications. The 3100LA represents E&I’s
commitment to providing RF power amplifiers of the
highest quality, durability and ruggedness.
FLEXIBILITY:
The 3100LA produces 100 Watts of class A linear
power output over the entire frequency range from
250 KHz to 150 MHz. It has very low harmonic
distortion along with low IMD products. Operation
over the band is achieved without the need for any
band switching or indeed any adjustments. The
power gain is rated at 50 dB with a typical gain
flatness of +/- 1.5 dB
The 3100LA is compatible with most signal
generators, frequency synthesizers, sweep
generators and other laboratory signal sources. It
accurately reproduces all waveforms within its power
and frequency ranges: AM. FM, SSB, pulsed and
other complex modulation schemes.
RUGGEDNESS:
The 3100LA is built to withstand a +13 dBm input
(1.0 Volt RMS) for any VSWR load condition. The
internal switched mode power supply is very
conservatively rated, in order to facilitate operation
over a large range of line conditions and
temperatures. The forced air cooling provides for low
internal temperatures, providing long term reliability.
The RF power is delivered by rugged DMoS FETs,
de-rated to provide for excellent MTBF figures.
