CHALLENGES

Finding a high-power RF amplifier that meets the required frequency range and power level is often challenging. Customers often rely on multiple amplifiers, requiring manual connections that hinder test automation. When using amplifier modules, external power supplies add complexity, increase the risk of errors, and take up more space. Operators also lack real-time feedback on the RF module's status (temperature, voltage, current), and without direct communication with the control software, critical information may be lost, or equipment may be damaged.

SOLUTION 

RF Power Amplifier details

AMCAD offers secure integration of RF modules into turnkey test solutions. Rackable chassis-based systems are tailored to customer needs and include features such as USB/LAN communication and digital signal alarms. These solutions streamline interactions with IQSTAR and allow multiple amplifier blocks within a single chassis, enabling automated coverage of a wide range of power and frequency requirements. The system monitors power supplies and feedback signals, ensuring reliability, quick fault response, and data recovery, reducing the need for manual interventions and optimizing test automation.

TYPICAL USE CASE

In this example, 3 independant RF chains embedding different LNA, using X-Microwave modules, are integrated into a 19″ 3U chassis. A dedicated monitored DC source powers each amplifier module, and the sequencing of the power supplies ensures a secure switch-on and switch-off of the DC bias. Each channel can be unbiased independently and rapidly in the event of an alarm, and the data can be recovered by USB.
