Solid State High Power T/R Switches
2 - 1000MHz / 1000Watts

The goal of any high power system design utilizing high power amplifiers and T/R switches is to provide high reliability while maintaining full system protection into any load condition including open and short circuits. Empower RF has accomplished this feature with it’s new switching technology in conjunction with industry established high reliability solid-state high power amplifiers.

This innovative (patent pending) approach improves the system’s efficiency and output capability by minimizing transmit and receive path loss, as well as allowing for the fast switching speeds inherent in PIN diode devices.

The Empower RF Systems series TRS high power PIN diode switches allow for the rapid switching between the transmit and receive paths vital in today’s high technology systems. The rapid (<50 uSec) switching speed and high isolation between transmit and receive paths insures protection of the sensitive receiver from high RF powers.
