Crossed-Field Amplifiers
CFAs
Communications & Power Industries
CPI BMD’s crossed-field amplifiers (CFAs) are broadband, phase-stable microwave amplifiers used in coherent radar chains to efficiently generate very high peak output powers from relatively low input voltages which can be either applied to the cathode or an electrode similar to a TWTs cathode or grid pulsing, and in relatively small, lightweight packages. These characteristics make CFAs particularly well-suited for applications in which the transmitter must be either airborne, transportable, mobile or portable.

Klystron HPAs
Communications & Power Industries
CPI's GEN IV klystron power amplifier (KPA) is the overwhelming choice among Direct-to-Home service providers for uplink service, and is also very popular for other broadcasting applications. As the first KPA to utilize multi-stage depressed collector (MSDC) technology, the GEN IV offers by far the best combination of high power, high efficiency, small size, low heat dissipation and low acoustic noise in its class.

Instrumentation Amplifiers
HIGH-POWER RADIO FREQUENCY (RF) AND MICROWAVE AMPLIFIERS, TWTA AND SOLID STATE
Communications & Power Industries
electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) high-intensity radiated field (HIRF) testing, military testing, electronic warfare simulation and scientific applications are based on the same switched-mode power supply technology as its rugged amplifiers. As a result, these instrumentation amplifiers have all the same performance and reliability advantages as the rugged product line, but have been neatly re-packaged into compact, lightweight and affordable rack-mountable units more suitable for less demanding physical environments. CPI TMD's new modular design (the PTCM range) has many user benefits, including advanced self-diagnostics, ethernet interfaces, remote management, VSWR protection and plug and play field replaceable power supplies.
