Solid State High Power Amplifier: AMP20193 Datasheet

The AMP20193 from Exodus Advanced Communication is a rugged, rack-mounted solid-state power amplifier engineered for demanding EMI/RFI, laboratory, communications, and defense-related applications. Delivering a minimum of 500 W saturated output power—and typically exceeding 600 W—this broadband system provides exceptional performance across an ultra-wide 10 kHz to 400 MHz operating range, divided into two fast-switching bands. With a minimum gain of 57 dB and linear Class A/AB design, the AMP20193 ensures clean, stable amplification suitable for both CW and pulsed environments.

Designed for reliability in mission-critical settings, the amplifier incorporates extensive built-in protection features, including load VSWR protection, input power protection, and sophisticated thermal and electrical monitoring. Optional Digital Monitor & Control (DMC) enhances visibility into forward and reflected power, VSWR, gain, ALC, voltage, current, and temperature. Multiple interface options—Ethernet, RS422/485, USB, and optional GPIB—enable straightforward integration into automated test systems.

The AMP20193’s rack-integrated, 20U cabinet includes a quiet, closed-loop air-liquid cooling system for efficient thermal management under continuous high-power operation. Mechanical durability is further supported by shock- and vibration-tested construction suitable for normal transport, with MIL-spec options available.

Additional options such as forward and reflected sample ports, calibrated power monitoring, and safety interlocks expand configurability for precise measurement and control requirements. With its robust construction, wide bandwidth, comprehensive monitoring, and exceptional output power, the AMP20193 is purpose-built for users who need high reliability, high efficiency, and high performance in one complete amplifier system.
