E&I 525LA RF Power Amplifier 1 MHz – 500 MHz 25W
Description
E&I 525LA RF Power Amplifier 1 MHz – 500 MHz 25W is a broadband rugged source of RF power, useful for RFI/EMI, power meter calibration, laser modulation and general laboratory applications.
FLEXIBILITY:
The 525LA produces over 25 Watts of class A linear power output over the entire frequency range from 1 MHz to 500 MHz. with a power gain of 50 dB. It has very low harmonic distortion along with low IMD products. Operation over the band is achieved without the need for any band switching or indeed any adjustments, with a gain flatness of ±2.5 dB and a 3rd order intercept point of +56 dBm.
RUGGEDNESS:
The 525LA is built to withstand a +13 dBm input (1.0 Volt RMS) for any VSWR load condition. The internal switched mode power supply is very conservatively rated, to facilitate operation over a large range of line conditions and temperatures. The forced air cooling provides for low internal temperatures, providing long term reliability.
