The Model 12,500A225 is a self-contained, air-cooled, broadband, completely solid-state amplifier designed for applications where instantaneous bandwidth and high gain are required. Push-pull MOSFET circuitry is utilized in all high power stages in the interest of lowering distortion and improving stability.
The Model 12,500A225 is equipped with a Digital Control Panel (DCP), which provides both local and remote control of the amplifier. The DCP uses a color LCD touch screen and a single rotary knob to offer status reporting and control capability.
The display provides operational presentation of Forward Power and Reflected Power plus control status and reports of internal amplifier status. Special features include a gain control, internal automatic level control (ALC) with front panel control of the ALC threshold and RF output level protection.
ll amplifier control functions and status indications are available remotely in GPIB/IEEE-488 format, RS-232 hard wire and fiber optic, Ethernet and USB.
