The Advanced Amplifiers AA-618G-20 is a solid state continuous wave, high-linearity class AB power amplifier that operates over a frequency range of 6.0 - 18.0GHz and generates 20 W of power. Its revolutionary design offers a unique form factor, high energy efficiency and simple front panel operation. The AA-618G-20 has a power gain of 43 dB minimum and operates with an input of 100 - 240 VAC single-phase (300 W).

The AA-618G-20 is lightweight and has a low-profile (2U) build compared to standard amplifiers with the same specifications, allowing for easy transportation and more rack space for additional test systems. This unique amplifier offers high linearity and quick heat dissipation. The front panel is simple to operate with a touchscreen interface or can be controlled via Ethernet (RJ-45 TCP/IP), RS422/485 or GPIB interfaces. The Advanced Amplifiers AA-618G-20 unit is housed in a striking cobalt-blue cabinet for benchtop applications and can be removed for rack mounting.
