TWT Modulator

• CPE Traveling Wave Tube test stations provide a safe computer controlled test environment for TWT to perform focus, test, and burn-in operations.
• CPE TWT test stations are designed with power supply accuracy and tube preservation in mind.
• Internal supplies are voltage and current regulated to better than ±0.1% using optically coupled A/Ds providing low-noise high-speed accuracy.
• TWT test stations are modular for easy future expansion and can accommodate from one to five collector supplies.
• Power supply modules with full metal enclosures provide the lowest possible ripple and EMI susceptibility.

HV Power Supplies

• Three phase resonant DC to DC converter designs
• Balanced three phase sine wave voltages and multiple layers of shielding reduce line and switching artifacts to less than 25 PPM peak-to-peak.
• Isolated supplies floatable to 25kV with an operating ranges from 100V to 10.0kV differential

1/4 MegaWatt Pulser

• Adjustable negative (-50V to -5000V) pulsing with positive (0V to +100V) reference capability
• Pulse widths from 0.5 µsec to DC (CW)
• Pulse repetition rates up to 50 kHz

AC Heater Supply

• Microprocessor based
• Serial interface for automatic control
• Isolation to 10kV
• Short/open circuit protection
• 4-wire connection for load point regulation
• Advanced timer features
• External interlock connection
