Description
R&K, an independent company, has achieved production of 2.3 million 1.9GHz microwave power amplifiers for mobile-comm’s-base-stations and then also supplies wideband power amplifiers for automobile EMC testing for domestic automobile industries. Then 16 years ago, we started designing and producing some hundreds kW RF SSA for accelerator applications as alternatives to Klystron / tube.
The measure characteristics of SSA is a possibility to design a band in a very wide frequency range available from few MHz to 14 GHz, and its upgradability of max-power in few kW to few MW design even after system completed. Recently, SSA is being recognized the significant advantages over vacuum tubes in terms of size, low power consumption, higher efficiency, low cost, and adaptive power design. In addition to these, we have learnt that SSA has very low phase noise and low envelope noise that cannot be achieved with vacuum tubes.
