Introducing the IMD-TP1

The complete solution for testing IMD in power amplifiers

Summary

The IMD-TP1 platform is an advanced automatic test system specifically designed for inter-modulation distortion (IMD) characterization of linear power amplifiers operating within the LF to VHF range. Featuring a user-friendly PC interface, the IMD-TP1 enables RF Engineer / Technician to efficiently control the power supply, signal generators, spectrum analyzer and complex switched filtering options to ensure optimal signal integrity. This innovative system can automatically select filters for e.g. amateur-radio test bands (e.g. 3.6MHz / 14MHz / 52MHz – additional options available) and seamlessly configure essential parameters in the spectrum analyzer interface. It operates in conjunction with the ULTA-10 Ultra Linear Test Amplifier to accurately assess the IMD behavior of high-power amplifiers.
