Traveling Wave Tube Amplifier

Travelling wave tube is a cylindrical structure which contains an electron gun from a cathode.

Traveling wave tube amplifier. Amplification is done through the prolonged interaction between an electron beam and radio frequency rf field. Construction of travelling wave tube. High power traveling wave tube amplifiers twta high voltage power systems and test equipment for microwave tubes. The traveling wave tube can be used as a medium or high power microwave amplifier.

The twt because of its construction and working principle has enormous bandwidths and low noise. Travelling wave tubes are non resonant structures that offer continuous interaction of applied rf field with the electron beam over the entire length of the tube. The main attraction of these devices is their very high gain 30 60 db linear characteristics and 1 2 octave bandwidth. The t and tp series.

When test needs call for higher power and higher frequency consider our t series microwave amplifier line 1 to 50 ghz 40 to 20 000 watts cw and pulse. Travelling wave tubes are broadband microwave devices which have no cavity resonators like klystrons. 1 to 50 ghz. Traveling wave tube amplifiers twta twt amplifiers for high power microwave test applications.

Traveling wave tubes abbr. 40 to 20 000 watts. The twt belongs to a category of linear beam tubes such as the klystron in which the radio wave is amplified by absorbing power from a beam of electrons as it. A travelling wave tube twt is a specialized vacuum tube that is used in electronics to amplify radio frequency rf signals in the microwave range.

The twt belongs to a category of linear beam tubes such as the klystron in which the radio wave is amplified by absorbing power from a beam of electrons as it passes down the tube. The essential features of a typical travelling wave tube introduction in the past few years several radio amateurs have employed travelling wave tubes twts colloquially known as twits as microwave power amplifiers. We have a selective inventory of traveling wave tubes twt and traveling wave tube amplifiers twta available separately or integrated to. A traveling wave tube twt pronounced twit or traveling wave tube amplifier twta pronounced tweeta is a specialized vacuum tube that is used in electronics to amplify radio frequency rf signals in the microwave range.

A travelling wave tube is a high power amplifier used for the amplification of microwave signals up to a wide range. It is a special type of vacuum tube that offers an operating frequency ranging between 300 mhz to 50 ghz. A bandwidth of 1 octave is one in which the upper frequency is twice the lower frequency. Twt amplifiers twta traveling wave tube amplifiers.

Ifi s twta traveling wave tube amplifiers cw continuous waveform twt gridded pulse cw and twt pulse amplifier product lines fill the requirements for all your high frequency high power microwave testing applications ifi designs manufactures and distributes a full line of twt traveling wave tube amplifiers for both the commercial.
