Overview
The 1000S04 is a broadband solid state amplifier covering the frequency spectrum from 20 to 400 KHz. It is rated at 1000 watts of RF power with low harmonic and intermodulation distortion. A Class D design, the 1000S04 will amplify inputs of AM, FM, SSB, pulse and any complex modulation signals within the bandwidth of the amplifier.
The amplifier has 60 dB gain, it is unconditionally stable and will not oscillate even with combinations of mismatched source and load impedance. It is protected against failure due to output load mismatch and/or overdrive.
The 1000S04 RF amplifier is used to amplify the RF level of signal sources in the 20 to 400 KHz. No tuning or any other form of adjustment is required.
The 1000S04 produces rated power output at its output connector into 50 Ohms. It will produce less power at other load impedances. Therefore, although the output impedance is 50 ohms, the amplifier will work into any load impedance. On the front of the unit there are BNC connectors for current and voltage monitors. These monitors provide a scaled down representation of the output waveform. For proper scaling these outputs should be terminated with 50 ohms.
(They will read twice the voltage if left unterminated).
