The recently developed PTXM range of TWT based Microwave Power Modules delivers exceptionally low weight and small size – typically 1.7 kg and 190 x 120 x 30mm, which has been achieved with no reduction in RF power or reliability. This high power-to-volume feature is the result of superior packaging techniques to efficiently use all available space.
These MPMs are particularly suitable for airborne applications or for other situations where space and weight are critical.
A Microwave Power Module (MPM) is essentially a compact, integrated microwave amplifier – for amplifying radio frequency signals to high power levels. MPMs combine solid state and vacuum tube technology (i.e. a solid state driver and Travelling Wave Tube (TWT) output) with a built in power supply.
At the EMC + SIPI Symposium 2018, TMD USA, supplier of professional world class, microwave and RF products based in Baltimore, Maryland, will be demonstrating its proven capability in the field of EMC/EMI.
Emphasising this expertise is our recently introduced PTCM Series of intelligent, modular TWT (Travelling Wave Tube) RF instrumentation amplifiers. Operating over a frequency range from DC to 40 GHz, with a power output up to 50 kW, they are designed to deliver the highest field strengths in the test environment.
