Product description
Filtronic’s range of Cerus & Taurus amplifiers provide market leading linear mmW power. Available in single to N-way configurations, the Taurus power amplifiers deliver unparalleled performance for long range E-Band communications.
Taurus amplifiers efficiently combine the power of two Cerus amplifiers, almost doubling the available output power. Each Taurus module contains two Cerus 8 E-Band amplifier modules which each contain 8x Filtronic GaAs pHEMT PA MMICs performance matched and power combined in waveguide to deliver maximum power. An integrated temperature sensor provides users with accurate amplifier temperature data, and optional control circuitry facilitates functions including mute control and alarms.
Suitable for commercial or military applications, Taurus can be applied for terrestrial and non-terrestrial communications.
