TWTAs and Solid State Instrumentation Amplifiers

Developing alongside the rugged amplifiers for radar has been a range of commercial microwave amplifiers, using TWTs, or solid state technology for such applications as EMC and RF testing, radar simulation and calibration, jamming, satellite communications, Passive Intermodulation Testing (PIM) for space components, scientific experimentation and medical LINACs.

Exceptional reliability comes as standard

These products are based on the same switched mode power supply technology as the rugged amplifiers with all the advantages of performance and reliability, but have been re-packaged, for less demanding physical environments into compact, lightweight and affordable rack-mountable units, typically at 4U or 3U high.

A set of standard amplifiers covers the range between 1-40 GHz in both pulsed and CW versions. In addition, special products can be designed to customers' specific requirements. TMD has produced many unusual and innovative products for a variety of markets, which have been unobtainable elsewhere.

Fast and efficient repair service

We have gained a reputation for fast and efficient repair of amplifiers - not necessarily of our own manufacture! Often repairs are carried out at customers' premises at very short notice and in this respect our close proximity to Heathrow airport is helpful for our overseas customers.

A few years ago, scientists from CERN, working on a high profile particle anti-matter experiment, in collaboration with the Riken Laboratories in Japan, urgently required a high power amplifier at short notice. They contacted TMD for help, and our staff worked around the clock to produce a suitable unit. The customer was very grateful that they had avoided the expense and embarrassment of losing their allocated time slot.

High Power Solid State Amplifiers

TMD has particularly specialised in the development of a number of of Class C (high power, narrow band) solid state amplifiers covering the frequency range L-X band for radar, IFF, UAV and medical and scientific applications. Options include phase control, pulsed or CW units.
