3.00GHz (Frequency Range - High)The Model 600S1G3 is a self-contained, air-cooled, broadband, completely solid-state amplifier designed for applications where instantaneous bandwidth, high gain, and linearity are required. Quadrature coupled circuitry is utilized in all high power stages in the interest of lowering distortion and improving stability. The Model 600S1G3, when used with a sweep generator, will provide a minimum of 590 watts of RF power. The Model 600S1G3 is equipped with a Digital Control Panel (DCP) that provides both local and remote control of the amplifier. The DCP uses a digital display, menu assigned soft keys, a single rotary knob, and four dedicated switches (POWER, STANDBY, OPERATE and FAULT/RESET) to offer extensive control and status reporting capability. The display provides operational presentation of Forward Power and Reflected Power plus control status and reports of internal amplifier status. Special features include a gain control, internal/external automatic level control (ALC) with front panel control of the ALC threshold, pulse input capability and RF output level protection. Also included is an internal RF detector that provides an output for use in self-testing or operational modes. All amplifier control functions and status indications are available remotely in GPIB / IEEE-488 format and RS-232 hardwire and fiber optic. The buss interface connector is located on the back panel and positive control of local or remote operation is assured by a keylock on the front panel of the amplifier. The low level of spurious signals and linearity of the Model 600S1G3, make it ideal for use as a driver amplifier in testing wireless and communication components and subsystems. It can be used as a test instrument covering multiple frequency bands and is suitable for a variety of communication technologies such as CDMA, W-CDMA, TDMA, GSM etc. It is also suitable for EMC Test applications where undistorted modulation envelopes are desired. The controller and the Sub Amplifiers can each be used as individual 240 watt amplifiers when the 600S1G3 power output is not required. By simply adding one 240S1G3 amplifier and the appropriate combiner, along with minor tuning, the 600S1G3 is upgraded to the 800S1G3 amplifier system.
