RF-Links Military-Grade 50W High-Power Amplifier (1-2.5 GHz) User Manual
Mil grade high power amplifier
ZHM1000-2500/50
MIL Grade High Power Amplifier
This is a high power, broadband, Gallium Nitride (GaN) RF amplifier that
operates from 1.0 to 2.5 GHz. This unit will operate down to 1000 MHz
with no degradation in performance, ideal for broadband military platforms
as well as commercial applications. This RF module employs temperature
compensation to keep the gain constant over the temperature extremes.
The power response changes by a ±0.75 dB typical over temperature.This
amplifier has a typical P1dB of 35 watts at room temperature. Saturated
output power across the band is typically 50 watts.
Solid-state Class AB linear design
Compact, lightweight, rugged and reliable
Extremely wide instantaneous bandwidth
Suitable for CW, AM, and FM
(Contact factory for other modulation types)
50 ohm input/output impedance
Built-in control, monitoring and protection circuits
