rohde schwarz SAM100 system amplifier 2 GHz to 20 GHz 20W
Key facts
Ultra-broadband frequency range: 2 GHz - 20 GHz
Output power: 20 W Psat and higher
High gain with low noise <8 dB and excellent linearity
Very suitable for AM, FM, PM, PhiM, OFDM
Compact, modular and robust for DVT / PVT and EMC
The perfect combination of high performance, wide bandwidth and low noise
The R&S®SAM100 system amplifier is an ultra-broadband solid state microwave amplifier with a frequency range from 2 GHz to 20 GHz. With a power of up to 20 W, outstanding linearity and very good noise characteristics, the R&S®SAM100 amplifier is ideal as a compact system amplifier in various measurement setups e.g. design (DVT) and product validation test (PVT) or EMC. In measurement environments with R&S generators, frequency analyzers or network analyzers, they can act as drivers or boosters and amplify the measurement signals. The R&S®SAM100 is also an excellent alternative to tube amplifiers as well as for multi-band assemblies consisting of narrow-band single amplifiers.
Features & benefits
Broadband amplification
Robust state-of-the-art solid-state technology for low-noise amplification
Ultra-Light and very compact 20 W microwave amplifier with the highest power density and a very lownoise power density of <<-100 dBm (1 Hz) at a bandwidth of one decade from 2 GHz- 20 GHzrealized with the latest GaN-HEMT technology and a sophisticated thermal design using the heat pipetechnology offers the user the possibility to amplify test signals for the design, testing and validation ofRF components and devices。
Compact and modular
Flexible in use
With their modular, compact design, the R&SeSAM100 amplifiers can be used excellently in 19" systemracks and PXl frames. They are also available as mobile desktop devices. In particular, their digitalcontrol interface predestines these amplifiers for integration into automatic test systems (ATE Systems)Its patented plug-in system for the microwave input and output pluas allows a choice between 2.92mm or 3.5 mm plugs.
