MXI101V TECHNICAL SERVICE MANUAL 

1 MXI101V 

AMPLIFIER–INTRODUCTION 

This Technical Service Manual contains publications (PUBs) describing the technical details of the MXi101V 
amplifier, as well as the overall operating instructions, including the bench test procedures of the amplifier stages 
incorporated in this unit. It also covers the transmitter’s start-up operation, and troubleshooting, as well as basic 
transmitter maintenance guidelines. 

The RF section of the MXi101V Amplifier consists of a heatsink assembly that includes three cascaded 
broadband amplifier modules and a directional coupler. Figure 1 shows the layout of an MXi201 assembly.  The 
MXi101V utilizes one of these output amplifiers only. 

 

Figure 1 MXi Amplifier Heatsink Assembly 

Also mounted on the heatsink is a thermal switch that protects the amplifier from over temperature conditions.
