Product Overview

RENT Amplifier Research 240S1G4 (call for availability)

The Amplifier Research 240S1G4 Amplifier is a portable, self-contained, air-cooled, broadband, completely solid-state amplifier designed for applications where instantaneous bandwidth, high gain and linearity are required. Push-pull circuitry is utilized in all high power stages in the interest of lowering distortion and improving stability.

The AR 240S1G4M2, when used with a sweep generator, will provide a minimum of 240 watts of RF power. The 240S1G4 Amplifier is equipped with a Digital Control Panel (DCP) which provides both local and remote control of the amplifier. The DCP uses a graphic liquid crystal display, menu assigned softkeys, 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 automatic level control (ALC) with front panel control of the ALC threshold and RF output level protection.

All amplifier control functions and status indications are available remotely in 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 local or remote operation is assured by a Local/Remote switch on the front panel of the amplifier.

The low level of spurious signals and linearity of the Amplifier Research 240S1G4 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 240S1G4 is housed in a single equipment rack and is designed to provide complete standalone performance for RF testing. It is also configured to be used as a sub-amplifier in a 450-watt, 600-watt, or 800-watt higher power amplifier. It can be added to in an incremental fashion to become a part of these higher power units, yet still be used as a standalone 240 watt amplifier.
