High power and low noise solid state microwave amplifiers

AMS has a strong background on the design of microwave amplifiers with diverse specifications such as wide bandwidth, low noise high linear power, high gain, variable gain and other custom specifications according to the customer needs.

Our strong experience on RF and microwave amplifiers design give us the flexibility to deliver to the customer custom products at the cost of of-the-self products.

Frequency coverage: HF, VHF, UHF, L, C, X, Ku, J bands.

Output power capabilities: HF-UHF frequency coverage with output power levels of 1000Watts. At L, C, X, Ku, J frequency bands linear output power levels from 200W to 10Watt depending on the frequency band of operation.

Noise figure : 0.5dB from L-Band to 4dB at Ka-band.

VSWR: less than 1.5:1 at the input or output for all amplifier cases.

Power supply 6-15 VDC or 110VAC/220VAC/380VAC @ 50, 60 or 400 ¥z.

Over-voltage, over-temperature, over-current and standing waves  interlocks protect the amplifier units.

Optional automatic gain and power output control.
