Description
The KU PA 640700 - 25 A is a high power and highly linear amplifier for terrestrial data links and SATCOM uplinks. Using GaAs FETs a preeminent linearity in combination with high frequency and output power is reached. The 12 V supply voltage ease usage in non-stationary environments such as broadcast vehicles or flying platforms.
Features
- GaAs FET technology
- High linearity
- Low EVM
- Isolator for protection against high VSWR
- Reverse polarity protection
- Over temperature protection
- Monitor outputs for forward and reverse power detection (DC voltage)
- Logic ON / OFF control (ON at +5 … 14 V DC)
Applications
- Digital transmission and broadcast systems (DVB, WiMAX)
- COFDM systems using QPSK, QAM
- Analog transmission systems
