The Model 300T7z5G18 is a self contained, forced air cooled, broadband traveling wave tube (TWT) microwave amplifier designed for applications where instantaneous bandwidth and high gain are required. A reliable TWT provides a conservative 300 watts minimum at the amplifier output flange over most of the frequency range. Stated power specifications are at the fundamental frequency.
-
POWER (fundamental), CW @ OUTPUT FLANGE
-
FLATNESS: ±12 dB maximum, equalized for ±5 dB maximum at rated power
-
FREQUENCY RESPONSE: 7.5-18 GHz instantaneously
-
INPUT FOR RATED OUTPUT: 1.0 milliwatt maximum
-
GAIN (at maximum setting): 55 dB minimum
-
GAIN ADJUSTMENT (continuous range): 35 dB minimum
-
INPUT IMPEDANCE: 50 ohms, VSWR 2.0:1 maximum
