Amplifier Research ATE10K100M Overview
The Amplifier Research ATE10K100M is a broadband E-field generator of unique design, which offers operation to 100 MHz, good spatial field uniformity, and high field intensities. This generator is compact and easily supported and positioned using a tripod. It uses high-power low-inductance internal load resistors to terminate the RF drive power and a low-loss broadband impedance transformer to achieve high field intensities. The ATE10K100M is supplied with two sets of interchangeable elements with a quick-disconnect attachment feature. The smaller set, Type A, provides the highest field intensities and is suitable for use with test objects up to 36 x 46 x 36 cm (14 x 18 x 14 in). The larger set, Type B, is suitable for testing objects up to 48 x 46 x 36 cm (19 x 18 x 14 in).
