TMD Technologies shows advanced microwave power modules at the Farnborough Airshow
Visitors to this year’s Farnborough Airshow will be able to see the latest microwave power modules from TMD Technologies, on the A|D|S stand B15 in Hall 1.
Particularly applicable for avionics applications, these MPMs have the advantages of being ultra compact and lightweight, as well as providing high efficiency and reliability.
The pulsed and CW "drop-in" amplifier blocks are fully integrated, making installation safe and simple. They are particularly suitable for radar, EW and communications applications.
In the ATC radar field, TMD will be highlighting its innovative PTX7602 S-band transmitter. This complete S band transmitter is suitable for commercial or military air traffic control radar and offers enhanced features and user benefits.
At the heart of the transmitter is the company’s PT6055 S band TWT (travelling wave tube) which, combining high efficiency, reliability and long life, has proved an outstanding success in Watchman radars worldwide. It offers predictable managed power with reliable through life support and reduced total life cycle costs when compared with solid state alternatives.
Other applications for TMD’s microwave products include ECM and towed decoys for electronic warfare, satellite communications links, simulation and training, as well as EMC testing, high power component testing and scientific research.
