144 MHz, 1 kW Power Amplifier



volume photo: volume volume.gif This project is a simple solid state 1kW power amplifier that is used to read DC voltage and SWR on reverse/forward meters. The device has a watercooling that separates the transistor from the radiator. However, it automatically shuts down when the temperature is relatively high. This linear amplifier uses the Freescale’s rf power LDMOS transistor that is capable of handling 10:1 VSWR and characterized with series equivalent large-signal impedance parameters. This can be used in single ended or in push pull configuration. read more...
