With a sequence controller, this trouble can be avoided. The sequence controller provides a control signal for the coaxial relay and it switches the voltage supply for the power amplifier. There is a time delay between the two signals to guarantee safe switching.

Description
Many coaxial relays have a too low isolation between the ports during the change-over. If the power amplifier (in a transmit-receive system) is switched too early, this may lead to damage or destruction of the input transistor in the preamplifier or converter.With a sequence controller, this trouble can be avoided. The sequence controller provides a control signal for the coaxial relay and it switches the voltage supply for the power amplifier. There is a time delay between the two signals to guarantee safe switching.
Applications
- Control circuit to sequence the switching of power amplifiers and coaxial relays in transmit-receive systems. It can be used with transverters of the MKU-series by DB6NT
- Suitable for LD-MOSFET power ampllifiers with 26 ... 32 V supply voltage
