Product Overview

High Power Solid State Amplifiers from CPC meet and exceed the demanding requirements needed to perform in military systems. Deployed in Radar, EW, and Communication Systems, CPC amplifiers are used across all domains including Fixed and Mobile Ground, Airborne, and Naval systems.

Operating at frequencies from 10 kHz to 32 GHz and output powers from 2 W to >100 kW, these amplifiers support all modulation formats and are designed to meet the complete range of environmental and EMI/EMC requirements imposed for operational situations. With both Rack Mount and Module form factors, CPC amplifiers integrate at the system level.

The core RF power section is Class AB and provides performance with AM, FM, PM, Digital and Pulse modulation formats.

System reliability is enhanced in the design phase through Highly Accelerated Life Testing (HALT), and amplifier production sub-assemblies are 100% sampled with Highly Accelerated Stress Screening.
