X-Band Radar Solid State Power Amplifier

COMTECH PST introduced a new GaN amplifier for ground or surface X-Band radar applications. The AB linear design operates from 9.2 to 9.7 GHz frequency range over an instantaneous bandwidth of 500 MHz. Development of this product is for a TWT replacement. The amplifier design features self-protection for load VSWR, duty factor, pulse width, temperature, as well as a graceful degradation in case of a RF power module failure. An MTBF increase of 10 times that of a TWT is achieved for greatly improved reliability and lower maintenance costs. Comtech supports custom configurations and features are available as well as specific power levels up to 16 kW.
