Test Equipment Description

Features & Specifications of Vectawave VBA230-80 :

The VBA230-80 is a member of the 150kHz- 230MHz high power amplifiers, designed primarily for EMC applications.

Like all our products of the VBA230 series, it is based on rugged push-pull MOSFET technology, for extra even order harmonic suppression.


The amplifier operates in class A, the benefits for EMC applications being very low distortion and tolerance of 100% mismatch. Fold-back protection is neither fitted nor needed! This makes it supremely suited for very demanding transducer requirements.
