1.0 - 6.0 GHz, 400 Watt Solid State High Power Amplifier: AMP20179 Datasheet

Designed for broadband EMI/RFI, lab, GTEM, and IEC testing applications, the AMP2030B-LC delivers high-performance RF amplification in a compact, rack-mounted form factor. Its Class A/AB linear design ensures clean, reliable output with high efficiency and minimal distortion, making it ideal for precise laboratory and compliance testing environments.

Operating across 1.0 to 6.0 GHz, the amplifier provides a minimum of 400 W peak output at Psat and 250 W at P1dB, with 56 dB minimum gain and ±4 dB gain flatness. Advanced high-power devices support ultra-wide instantaneous bandwidth, while low harmonic (-20 dBc typ) and spurious (-60 dBc max) levels ensure accurate, repeatable test conditions. Two-tone intermodulation is -30 dBc typ, providing excellent linearity for multi-tone signals.

The AMP2030B-LC incorporates extensive built-in protection, including input power and load VSWR safeguards, foldback at preset limits, and optional digital monitoring for enhanced system reliability. Gain can be adjusted locally or remotely across a 20 dB range, and a sample port (-50 dB N-Female optional) allows convenient real-time output verification.

Operating on 200–240 VAC mains and consuming up to 4000 W at rated output, the unit features robust environmental resilience, functioning in temperatures from 0 to +50 °C, relative humidity up to 95%, and altitudes up to 3000 meters. Shock and vibration tolerances ensure safe transport and operation in demanding lab and test environments.

Compact, reliable, and efficient, the AMP2030B-LC provides engineers and test facilities with a rugged, high-power solution for advanced EMI/RFI and compliance testing applications.
