The first task is to get your message through. The second is to
prevent the other guy from getting his message through. The
MtronPTI PA1052 Solid State Power Amp provides up to 20 Watts
of CW power across the full bandwidth and less than 4.0 dBP-P gain
flatness to meet the needs of broadband spectrum control.
With full power operation from 6.0 GHz to 18 GHz and built in
VSWR protection, the PA1052 has 43 dB of gain, perfect for standalone, array or TWT driver applications.
MtronPTI’s line of Solid State Power Amplifiers is backed by a
multi-national design and manufacturing team with more than 150
years combined PA design experience. MtronPTI’s continuing focus
on client service ensures full program life engineering support from
specification to production to next generation architecture planning.
Like all MtronPTI’s SSPAs, the PA1052 is also available integrated
with power supply, cooling and communications interface as a rack
mountable unit for laboratory or fixed location applications.
