WR6 Power Amplifier 110-170 GHz

WR6 Waveguide Power Amplifier 110-170 GHz

The AT-PA-110170-2018 from AT Microwave is a broadband WR6 waveguide power amplifier designed for full D-band operation. This solid-state amplifier delivers consistent performance across the entire 110-170 GHz spectrum, addressing critical requirements in millimeter-wave and sub-terahertz RF systems.

Technical Specifications

  • Frequency Range: 110-170 GHz (full D-band coverage)
  • Output Power (PSAT): +18 dBm typical
  • Gain: 20 dB with flat response across bandwidth
  • Interface: WR6 waveguide connectors
  • Input/Output Return Loss: Low VSWR characteristics
  • Linearity: High linearity performance for waveform integrity
  • Configuration Options: Standard waveguide version and LCBT bench-top variant with integrated +220V AC/DC power supply

Applications

  • D-Band Imaging Systems: High-resolution imaging and sensing applications requiring broadband mmWave coverage
  • FOD Detection: Foreign Object Debris detection systems for aerospace and manufacturing inspection
  • RF Over Fiber (RoF): Distributed antenna systems and remote RF signal transmission architectures
  • Radar Systems: Automotive, defense, and industrial radar platforms operating in the D-band
  • Test and Measurement: Laboratory equipment and signal generation for characterization and validation

The amplifier's flat gain profile and low return loss make it particularly suitable for cascaded system designs where phase coherence and amplitude stability are critical. The bench-top configuration with integrated power supply simplifies prototyping and field testing.
