Airborne Telemetry Power Amplifier: NuPower™ L60T01
The NuPower™ L60T01 is a L- and S-band solid-state power amplifier designed to deliver over 60 Watts of RF power in the 960 to 1390 MHz frequency range to extend the operational range of airborne telemetry links and transmitters. Based on the latest GaN technology, the amplifier’s 25% power efficiency at rated power and <10 in3 form factor make it ideal for size, weight, and power-constrained airborne RF telemetry, tactical communication systems, and electronic warfare systems.
The NuPower L60T01 accepts a nominal 0 dBm (1 mW) RF input and provides 48 dB of gain from 960 MHz to 1390 MHz for continuous wave (CW) and near-constant-envelope waveforms. NuPower PAs feature over-voltage protection and can operate over a wide temperature range of -40 °C to +85 °C. NuPower PAs come standard with a Micro-D cable assembly with 18″ flying leads for interfacing to the unit. An accessory kit with a 28 VDC fan-cooled heat sink and an upgraded interface cable with banana plug terminations for lab testing is also available.
