TAVD-500 Transmitter 

 

 

III-2

Principle of Operation 

 
The TAVD-500 power amplifier supplies a 500-watt (rms) 8VSB television signal on any of the VHF 
television channels 2 through 13.  Please note that channel selection must be made at time of 
order, as the transmitter or translator is calibrated and tested to the channel requested and is not 
field tuneable. The TAVD-500 power amplifier is a modular solid-state system comprised a TAVD-
500 500-watt broadcast amplifier utilizing readily available RF components wherever possible, thus 
enhancing the serviceability of the equipment.  
 
Each TAVD-500 is comprised of a VHFTV-25 and a VHFTV-200 driver pallet and (4) VHFTV-400 
final pallets that are combined to create 500 watts (rms) 8VSB power. The amplifier modules are 
stable for high reliability and long service life. 
 
The TAVD-500 features ultra linear amplification and individual channel RF output bandpass 
filtering.  
 
The following block diagram illustrates the 500-watt system.
