Amplifier Pallets
The PA25-VHF pallet is a two stage ultra linear class-A linear pallet. The PA25-VHF-L has a typical gain of
40dB and the PA25-VHF-H has a typical gain of 34dB. These pallets draw no more than 3.0Adc total drain
current (the exact bias and drain currents of your system are found in the spec sheet supplied with each
manual). The quiescent and drain currents can be measured on the PA25-VHF pallet by measuring the voltage
drop across the current sense resistor found directly at the DC power supply lead input to the pallet. This
resistance is 0.01-ohms, providing a 10mV per ampere ratio.
The final amplifier stages are comprised of (2) P400-VHF-L or P400-VHF-H amplifier pallets and are each
characterized with minimum gains of 18 dB (low band) or 15 dB (high band) and maximum drain currents of
28 A (low-band) or 20 A (high-band).
All currents on the driver and final stages can be measured across the on-board shunt resistor (0.01-ohm)
found at the DC supply inputs. With this resistance, a 1mV reading across this resistor indicates a current
draw of 1.0A.
