Amplifier Research 1S1G4A Solid State Broadband Amplifier

Description

The Model 1S1G4A is a solid state, self-contained, air-cooled, broadband amplifier designed for applications where instantaneous bandwidth and high gain are required. Housed in a stylish contemporary cabinet, the unit is designed for benchtop use, but can be removed from the cabinet for immediate equipment rack mounting. The 1S1G4A, when used with a sweep generator, will provide a minimum of 1 watt of RF power. Included is a front panel gain control which permits the operator to conveniently set the desired output level. The 1S1G4A 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 0 dBm. The RF amplifier stages are protected from over temperature by removing the DC voltage to them if an over temperature condition occurs due to cooling blockage or fan failure.
