2. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
2.1 GENERAL
Operation of the Model 125S1G2z5 broadband amplifier is quite simple. The amplifier’s input signal,
whether swept or fixed in frequency, is fed into the jack marked RF INPUT, and the amplifier’s output signal
is taken from the jack labeled RF OUTPUT . The unit is turned on by activating the front panel POWER
switch. In the event of a major malfunction, protection is provided by a circuit breaker located on the unit’s
rear panel.
CAUTION:
The Model 125S1G2z5 Amplifier will provide 100% of rated power
without foldback into a mismatched load. The amplifier will operate
without damage or oscillation with any magnitude and phase of source
and load impedance. However, placing the amplifier in the operate mode
without a load connected to the output connector is not recommended. It
has also been designed to withstand, without damage, RF input power
levels up to twenty (20) times its rated input of 1mW. However, signal
levels higher than 20mW or transients with high peak voltages can
damage the amplifier. Also, accidental connection of the
Model 125S1G2z5’s output to its input (either through direct connection
or parasitic feedback paths) will cause oscillations that may permanently
damage the unit’s input transistors.
The 125S1G2z5 RF power transistors are protected from over temperature by sensing the chassis temperature
near the RF output transistors. In the event of a cooling fan failure or an airflow blockage, the DC voltage will
be removed from the RF stages, when the chassis temperature reaches approximately 70°C.
Normal operation can be resumed after the chassis temperature drops below 70° C.
