Microwave Generator

Product Code: ISYS245

OVERVIEW

The requirement for low cost, light weight, compact and portable laboratory equipment is becoming more commonplace in industry. In the fields of microwave test and measurement, customers are further demanding complete, fully functional and certified systems that meet industrial standards. To provide customers with this complete solution, Emblation Microwave has developed the ISYS245 microwave generator.

This new model uses state of art technology to produce a highly efficient 2.45GHz microwave system capable of generating variable power in excess of 110W at 2.45GHz with superior reflection measurement capability and temperature stability.

The ISYS245 has been designed with an easy to use interface with the capability of being operated as a standalone system or externally controlled via PC and/or microwave signal generator.

APPLICATIONS

The use of microwave technology in communication, industrial and laboratory applications is constantly advancing with high power capability becoming a necessity.

Potential applications for the MSYS245 include:

* Microwave measurement - material analysis (moisture), test & measurement, University research (hyperthermia/ablation, antenna measurements, wireless communication research).
* Microwave chemistry - organic chemistry, liquid phase reactions, intercalation reactions, organo-metallic chemistry, polymer chemistry, solid-state chemistry.
* Manufacturing - polymer curing, material heating and drying, ceramics.
* Food science - meat tempering and curing, material analysis (moisture, salinity, density).

HIGH POWER MICROWAVE GENERATOR

The microwave amplifier uses GaN on SiC solid-state technology operating in class A/B mode to generate microwave power in excess of 100W CW when used in the internally regulated standalone.

In this mode and also [swept] mode, the output power can be varied in 5W increments from 0-110W using pulse width modulation (PWM) techniques with power stability maintained within 5% of the set value.

HIGH POWER MICROWAVE AMPLIFIER

The ISYS245 can also be used as a standard amplifier where a small signal gain of 55-58dB is typical.

Using this mode of operation, the amplifier operates without any internal power regulation, allowing the user to have full control of the output power levels.
