www.vectawave.co.uk VBA1000-500 80 - 1000MHz 500W Amplifier

l High reliability proven GaAs design l Higher performance and efficiency than silicon alternatives l Lower cost than comparable GaN solutions l Class A for maximum mismatch drive l Automotive testing l General linear power requirements

The VBA1000-500 is a member of our family of 80-1000MHz high power amplifiers, designed primarily for EMC applications.

Like all our products of the VBA1000 series, it is based on our unique GaAs technology, offering the user the benefits of higher linearity, ruggedness and efficiency than its silicon-based counterparts and lower cost than the more recent GaN additions to the marketplace.

The amplifier operates in class A, the benefits for EMC applications being very low distortion and tolerance of 100% mismatch. Fold-back protection is neither fitted nor needed! This makes it supremely suited for very demanding antenna and test chamber requirements.
