Key facts
Flexible, configurable as single, dual or multiband amplifier system
The R&S®BBA300 broadband amplifiers are a new generation of highly compact solid-state broadband
amplifiers designed for high availability. They feature extremely wide, continuous frequency bands
extending up into the high microwave range, along with high linearity, outstanding noise power density and
excellent harmonic characteristics. They also boast high system configuration and operational settings flexibility.
The R&S®BBA300 is ideal for critical test environments such as EMC, product validation and OTA coexistence testing as well as for RF component testing in the frequency range from 380 MHz to 18 GHz for RF output power of up to 300 W P1dB.
The products in the R&S®BBA300 family include the R&S®BBA300-CDE, R&S®BBA300-DE, R&S®BBA300-F and R&S®BBA300-FG amplifier series with broadband amplification in the frequency ranges from 380 MHz to 18 GHz with output power of up to 300 W. They cover frequencies in EMC standards, in the GSM, LTE, 5G and GPRS mobile communications standards as well as the WLAN, Bluetooth® and Zigbee radio standards. The amplifiers support continuous sweeping of RF signals across the entire frequency range. This unique feature speeds up EMC testing, RF component and device testing and validation for wireless communications manufacturers. Narrowband CW signals (signals with simple AM, FM, PM or φM modulation and broadband, complex OFDM signals) can be amplified. High linearity, outstanding noise power density as low as –110 dBm/Hz and harmonic characteristics of –25 dBc and ensure a low adjacent channel leakage ratio (ACLR) as well as excellent transfer characteristics without additional EVM.
R&S®BBA300 means just one ultra-wideband amplifier is needed for many applications and requirements. The innovative R&S®BBA300-PK1 software option gives the R&S®BBA300 wideband amplifier family two powerful tools for tuning amplifiers and optimizing output signals. Users can adjust the amplifier for excellent linearity or faithful reproduction of pulse signals by shifting the operating point between class A and class AB and setting the amplifier for maximum RF output power or for maximum tolerance of output mismatch to utilize the application power reserves. Developers in R&D labs, test engineers in the test labs, integrators or operators on the production line can optimize output signals and react flexibly to a wide variety of requirements.
The innovative R&S®BBA300 family features high availability and robust operations. The sophisticated RF design ensures reliable, continuous operation even with mismatched RF output loads or a shorted or open RF output. EMC labs appreciate the high mismatch tolerance of Rohde & Schwarz broadband amplifiers, which can provide full RF power at the output even with mismatches of up to VSWR 6:1. Minimizing downtime is vital to users. Rohde & Schwarz amplifiers offer high availability, stability and reliability with innovative, smart protection concepts. Functions such as periodic bias current adjustment to compensate for component aging and drift increase the lifetime of broadband amplifiers. Customized service packages increase the high system availability of R&S®BBA300 amplifiers.
R&S®BBA300 broadband amplifiers are designed for maximum flexibility in minimum space. The compact and modular design of the amplifiers and other components enables scalable, highly integrated rack systems with 19" plug-in units. The frequency range and power of the amplifiers can be flexibly configured and subsequently extended at any time, securing user investments. Switch options enable individual amplifiers to be combined for specific applications and multiple frequency bands can be grouped into a system.
A new software platform ensures role-based, modern, user-friendly operation. The GUI allows operation point adjustments during use for improved efficiency. Dedicated access is available to extensive parameter sets. Option keys enable additional functions such as frequency range extension, high power mode, adjustment of operation point or other.
The standard Ethernet interface automates test procedures with remote control commands that use SCPI nomenclature.
Optionally, the SNMP protocol can be enabled for remote control.
