9100 Series
DC – 250 kHz, 200 Vp Switch-Mode Amplifiers
9100 Series
5 kW, up to 540A continuous, single-phase
AE Techron’s 9100 Series amplifiers are 200Vp, DC-to-250 kHz capable amplifiers that offer a unique combination of switch-mode efficiency and linear-amplifier-like fidelity in a single, compact package. They can drive virtually any type of load without a reduction in rated power, with low distortion and low DC drift. They are also fast enough to meet 7µs surge and dropout requirements.
Key Performance Capabilities:
- Bandwidth: DC to 250 kHz
- Minimum Drop/Rise Time: 7µs
- Slew Rate: Up to 150 V/µs
- Max Voltage: 200 Vp
- Max Current: 35A RMS to 540A RMS
- Distortion: <0.1% at 1 kHz below clip
- Max Long-Term Power: 5 kW to 30 kW*
- Typical Output Ripple: 0.6V RMS
*9105 output is 4.2 kW from 230V or 240V sources; output for 9110 and 9115 models is 5 kW.
OVERVIEW
The 9100 series is power-efficient, with a typical efficiency over 90% at full power. It is a powerful and flexible partner when the environment is difficult or existing AC Mains options are limited.
The single-unit models can be powered from any normal single-phase AC mains voltage (100V AC — 250V AC). The cabinet-based Power Systems can be powered from a variety of three-phase voltages from 200VAC to 415VAC*.
This combination of features makes the 9100 series an ideal solution for a wide range of high-current, low-voltage applications that require both wide bandwidth and the ability to drive reactive or widely varying load impedances.
- Stable when driving highly capacitive loads
- Four-quadrant operation
- User-selectable gain
- User-selectable current limit to protect fragile DUTs or where specified in the Standard
- DC enabled or DC blocked and DC Servo (for driving transformer-coupled loads or coils)
- Balanced and/or unbalanced input
- Operate as a voltage-controlled voltage source or voltage-controlled current source
- Variable output impedance from 0 to 1 ohm (Voltage mode)
* Three-phase voltages above 240VAC will require a 5-wire service.
