The Model 125S1G2z5 is a solid-state, air-cooled broadband amplifier that delivers 125 watts of continuous wave (CW) power across a frequency range of 1.0 GHz to 2.5 GHz. It features a Class A design, ensuring high linearity and gain, with a minimum gain of 54 dB. The amplifier includes a front panel gain control for easy output level adjustments and is equipped with an RF input leveling circuit to protect against overdrive conditions. The 125S1G2z5 is designed for both local and remote operation, facilitated by a Digital Control Panel (DCP) with a color LCD touch screen. The remote control capabilities include various interfaces such as GPIB/IEEE-488, RS-232, USB, and Ethernet. Additionally, it has a safety interlock circuit to prevent operation without proper external connections. The amplifier is compliant with CE and RoHS standards and operates efficiently with a primary power requirement of 100-240 VAC. It is suitable for applications requiring instantaneous bandwidth and high gain, making it a versatile choice for engineers in need of reliable RF amplification. The unit's robust design allows it to handle mismatched loads without damage, and it operates effectively in a range of environmental conditions.
The Model 125S1G2z5 is a solid-state, self-contained, air-cooled, broadband amplifier designed for applications where instantaneous bandwidth, high gain, and linearity are required. Available in a stylish, contemporary cabinet for benchtop use or with the cabinet removed for rack mounting.
The Model 125S1G2z5, when used with a sweep generator, will provide 125 W of RF power. Included is a front panel gain control that permits the operator to conveniently set the desired output level. The 125S1G2z5 is protected from RF input overdrive by an RF input leveling circuit which controls the RF input level to the RF amplifier first stage when the RF input level is increased above 0dBm. The RF amplifier stages are protected from overtemperature by removing the DC voltage to them if an over-temperature condition occurs due to cooling blockage or fan failure. The Model 125S1G2z5 is equipped with a Digital Control Panel (DCP) which provides both local and remote control of the amplifier. The DCP uses a color LCD touch screen display to indicate the operating status and fault conditions if an over-temperature or power supply fault has occurred. The unit can be returned to operate when the condition has been cleared.
All amplifier control functions and status indications are available remotely through the included Remotes Package. The Remotes Package includes GPIB/IEEE-488 format, RS-232 hardwire and fiber optic, USB, and Ethernet. The bus interface connector is located on the back panel and positive control of the local or remote operation is assured by a Local/Remote switch on the front panel of the amplifier. Also included with the Remotes Package is a safety interlock circuit for use with external safety switch interlocks. This circuit prevents the amplifier from going into operating mode unless the external connection is made. A jumper plug is provided for cases where this functionality is not needed.
The export classification for this equipment is EAR99.
