Modulation:
PRF
Switching Time
500 kHz max.
60 ns ON & OFF typical
In/Out VSWR 2:1
Load VSWR * † 2:1 for 85% of band, 3:1 max
Power Supply ‡ 3 A typ off +8.25 V rail at P1 dB
20 mA typ off -12 V @ P1 dB
Notes:
* At 3:1 VSWR, the output power will reduce by 1.2dB due to mismatch loss
† Unit must be operated with 50 ohm load at output
‡ No internal rail regulation. Recommended rail regulation is ±2.5%
