Key Facts

  • Frequency range between 80 MHz and 6 GHz
  • Output power between 22 W and 13000 W
  • Adjustable in bias point and mismatch tolerance
  • Suitable for amplitude, frequency, phase, pulse and OFDM modulation
  • Flexibly scalable and upgradable in frequency and power
  • 3-year warranty extension

Flexibly scalable and upgradable in frequency and power

The R&S®BBA130 broadband amplifiers provide RF output power between 22 W and 13000 W over the frequency range between 80 MHz and 6 GHz. The robust amplifiers offer flexible setting options so that an optimal RF signal can be generated for the specific application. It is therefore possible during operation to adjust the bias point for the transistors between Class A and Class AB and to change the mismatch tolerance at the output to provide more power. The air cooled amplifiers have a compact, modular design and are suitable as desktop models or can be installed in a rack. Its upgradability in frequency and power safeguards customers' investment.

Features & benefits

Broadband amplification

Robust and scalable with a broad portfolio

The R&S®BBA130 broadband amplifiers are state-of-the-art solid state microwave amplifier encompass altogether three frequency ranges: 80 MHz - 1 GHz (BC), 0.69 GHz - 3.2 GHz (D) and 2.5 GHz - 6 GHz (E) with different power classes between 22 W and 13000 W. They can be flexibly scaled and upgraded in terms of frequency and power. It secures customers' investments and offers them the flexibility to adapt their systems to new requirements at a later point in time.

Adjustable bias point

Outstanding linearity

With R&S®BBA130 you can set the transistor bias to Class A, Class AB or anywhere in between in order to change the characteristics of the output signal. A bias point in Class A provides excellent linearity with good harmonic performance. A bias point in Class AB permits accurate reproduction of pulsed signals as well as improved efficiency. To generate a clean CW signal for a device test, operate the R&S®BBA130 in Class A. To accurately amplify pulsed signals, select a bias point in Class AB.

Balanced output power

Maximum output power versus higher mismatch tolerance

The R&S®BBA130 allows you to choose between high maximum output power when there is a good impedance match (maximum VSWR approx. 2:1) typically during design and product validation tests or higher mismatch tolerance with a subsequent reduction in power (starting at about VSWR 6:1) for EMC applications involving poor matched antennas or for DUT measurements with an input impedance that deviates significantly from 50 Ω. It must continue to produce the desired output power for as long as possible.

Flexible configurable

Compact and modular with extensive switching options

The design of R&S®BBA130 is optimized for maximum flexibility in a small footprint. The compact, modular design of the amplifier stages and other components allows the setup of highly integrated systems based on 19" rack units. The frequency and power of these rack units can be flexibly configured. Numerous switching options allow you to mix and match the individual amplifiers to a single system with multiple frequency bands to obtain the best configuration for your specific application.

Modern user interface

Flexible control and operation

The R&S®BBA130 is operated via the display and the buttons on the front panel. This is ideal for use in labs and makes it easy to change settings. In addition the R&S®BBA130 can be conveniently operated via its graphical user interface using a computer. The web GUI integrated into the R&S®BBA130 is called up via LAN and web browser. The standard Ethernet interface makes it possible to automate test sequences using remote control SCPI commands.
